Very disappointing; they make you wait because they do not know how many spots are available, then you have to fill out a paper despite pre-booking. The headsets are so basic that at first it did not work; they changed it for me, but then there was a loose connection.... It ruined the experience, which remains expensive for the 15-minute film.
It was very interesting and informative quick view of the history of Malta in 15 min but fun for adults and families. It’s like every other 5d experience you would expect but maybe a little bit better. The staff were lovely too. Would highly recommended it and the price is good too.
Interesting and visually ambitious film in 3d with added moving seats and surround sound. A quick gloss over some of Malta's history and geography. A little light on history but very visually accessible and something fun. We bought tickets in advance of our stay but you can't choose the time - you have to go and hope your show in your language is on, and that spaces haven't been taken with tour groups. You get used of 3d glasses and there is a loo and a vending machine. I'd suggest this would be handy for teenagers or older kids.
Had a great time seeing Malta’s history in a different way. The 3D effects were good and the Maltese Falcon theme was a good way of moving between time lines. Only some of the front two rows of seats worked but those that did really enhanced the experience. Discount given for senior citizens.
Very interesting. Could've been more interesting if done in chronological order. Still an interesting way to understand Malta's history.
Very realistic. We were sitting in the movable seats. Could contain more relevant information but was interesting
We enjoyed it! It was a bit blurry & could have been done better but just chillax and enjoy it like we did! Fun way to find out about the history of Malta
I stayed a few days ago with my wife and my 19-year-old daughter. If you take the ticket, its validity is for the entire day for which you booked. Watch out though because it closes at 4.30pm. We went in the early afternoon and it was just the three of us. After all it was good because if there were other people, I don’t know if they would have screened it in Italian. The show is light and cute. Explain the history of Malta in a simple way. Suitable for all ages, especially children who would not be afraid to do so. The armchairs move and a jet of compressed air hits your face and legs every now and then, depending on what is being projected. Maybe there would also be some water vaporization, but I think the circuit was drained :-))).
This is a must see, especially if as in our case the temperature was 43 degrees! We had previously enjoyed a similar experience in Iceland and the Malta version is equally enjoyable.It suits all age groups and if you don’t want your seat to move just ask! Well worth a visit.
Rarely do I think to myself I’ve been ripped off. After spending €10 myself and €6 my son I was expecting so much more than was delivered. The make member of staff couldn’t have been less charismatic, but to be fair I wasn’t paying too see/listen to him. The 5D experience was as enjoyable as others I’ve been too however, the show was merely a Maltese tourism promotional video dressed up as a tourist excursion - it failed miserably. If I could include more positives I would but…
