My friends and I stumbled upon this when we visited Boston. It was really busy midday, we didn't have tickets so we didn't mind. We went and got lunch walked around and come back mid afternoon and it was much less busy. Had a great time, perfect rainy day activity. Staff was kind and extremely helpful.

Operator response

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re glad you were able to come back later in the day and enjoy the museum at a more comfortable pace. A rainy Boston day is definitely a great excuse for some indoor fun! We’re also happy to hear our team was kind and helpful throughout your visit. Thanks for spending part of your day with us!

wanna blow $40+ for some mediocre fun??

between the lack of spatial distancing between exhibits the screaming children, whose parents allowed them to do whatever they wanted because they have no etiquette. This is a total Tourist trap. we spent about $45. All the exhibits are right on top of each other. There’s too many people in here at 1.2 really sit there and enjoy the exhibits. That’s why it’s a Taurus trap. They just want your money to rush you out took us maybe 25 minutes to go through the whole thing the staff here are ignorant. Not be back and I will not tell anybody about this place.

Operator response
