Went with the kids, and they found it quite interesting. I enjoyed it to a point, but got bored with the look and feel of the place as it can be very sterile in some areas, and if you are tired there is no place to sit. ( I have disabilities) I also found it quite pricey. More

We could have spent 2 full days here, my kids absolutely loved it. We paid the extra to enter the Titanic exhibition. Very interesting. I did find it quite expensive though. More

Very boring. Not a learning experience. More of a bunch of toys for kids to play with. Many exhibits broken. Smaller cities have much better and up kept exhibits. Zero enjoyment for adults. More

This is not a venue where adults should go without children. The entire place is interactive and whilst I watched children (mostly under 10) having a great time and also learning about science, there was very little suited to an adult. Also a bit pricey at $18 plus $5 parking. More

Wonderful experience for the whole family! Interactive science displays were fun for the kids! IMAX presentations were amazing. We saw the one on the Coral reef. Beautiful colors and scenes. Great way to spend a day with a bit of learning built into it for the kids too! More

My kids love the exhibits here. My son has attended their summer camp and loved it despite the fact that he hates summer camps. We had a birthday party here and all 14 7 year old boys had a great time. We (the parents) just enjoyed the party and had very little work to do. More
