Just spent two great days at the Futuroscope. You ideally want to stay two full days. Taking a hotel on site is smart as you are literally exhausted at the end of each day, and the night show starts at 10:15 pm so you just want to be minutes from your bed. We stayed at the Hotel Plaza which was... More

I found that there was so much to see and do that there almost weren't enough hours in the day, try and arrive as early as possible and if you are lucky enough to pick a day with a firework or a lights display they are a super end to the day.

If you have a camping car or caravan this park is a must. Cheap to stay overnight in the car park, there's even a kennel to leave your dog whilst you're in the park. Not many Brits visit what is really a technology park showing all the latest innovations in film and the entertainment industry.The rides are excellent and the... More

We spent a day in Futuroscope and stayed at a nearby hotel. The park was just fantastic. The boys revelled in the fun - spraying water, shouting 'so-long suckers' as the 5 year old took off on a high wire helicopter!! My highlight was the 4 d train journey - I nearly wet myself!! My husband sat and watched as... More

Futuroscope already exists for some time and I can imagine that when it opened, it was really futuristic with the new multimedia from that era. Today, things like Imax, big screens and 4D movies are not that special anymore. It is simply more common nowadays. Some attractions are still fun to do, but out-dated. A movie with trains, cars and... More

When you are in France you see lots of castles, palaces, and historic sites. But after a while you would like a change of pace. That is exactly what Futuroscope provides. About 15 minutes outside of Poitiers, this movie based theme park is a great break. Each of the theaters in the park is a different type of theater attraction,... More

This attraction park has lots of things to do of which also several things inside (e.g. 4D movies), which makes this park also very good when it's a rainy day. That way you can go inside when it rains and do the outside attractions when it stops raining.

As a disabled retired woman I thoroughly enjoyed this visit and would recommend it to anybody of any age! The staff were very helpful and I was able to hire an electric buggy which enabled me to get around the facility. There were school children of all ages there when we visited and they all seemed to be enjoying themselves... More

Had a wonderful day at the Scope. Not cheap but worth it for the huge entertaiment value it provided. Take your own picnic along with you.
