This place is a tourist trap. NOT worth the money AT ALL. I don’t even know if a kid would enjoy it to be honest. Very boring. There was one cool walkway tunnel but other than that this place is a rip off. Very overpriced. At most, this place should be $10. It’s very short too. Only takes about 20 minutes to do and we had $100 invested. This place is just very uninteresting. Over rated. Ugh. $100 down the drain. Kudos to the staff though….they were friendly and nice.
We are sorry that you did not receive the value for your experience you feel was worth the pricing. Our goal is to provide every guest with a great experience, and clearly, we fell short here. We will use this feedback to continue to evolve our museum, to provide the best possible experience. Thank you.
It was a cute little visit. Also we did the North shore and the fountains right by there.
Happy to hear! We pride ourselves on being suitable for adults, and children alike. We hope to see you again soon.
This is a fun little place, but the key word is "little." There's not alot of exhibits. Took us about 20 minutes to go through for the crazy price they charge. We had two seniors, a 16, 7 and 3 year old and it cost $132. That's pretty pricy for the size of the area. Its like you go around a bend and you're coming out to the "gift shop" already. Definitely not worth paying that much
We loved it. Very entertaining for kids and grown ups. My grandson loved the spinning tube and hanging like Spiderman from the walls. Lots of pictures taken.
We were unable to experience the museum. The site said that reservations were needed. We bought tickets for noon that day. Arriving 15 minutes early, there was no parking available on the street because of an event. The parking garage was not open either because they stated they were waiting to see if the event was going to be canceled or not. We told them we weren't there for the event but wanted to use the parking garage for the museum. They said they wouldn't know if the garage would be open for another hour and a half when we called. We attempted to call and email the museum to give them our dilemma since the tickets were non-refundable. We received no response with every call or message. While I do understand the risk with buying tickets that are non-refundable, being a place like this and being so close to a venue that regularly shuts down parking availability, there should be a way to get our money back.
Fun and educational. Staff was very informed and helpful with explanations. Facility was neat and very clean.
The museum was geared more toward families with very young children. The advertisement was misleading because it showed pictures of adults, which gave the impression that it would appeal to older visitors as well. When we arrived, it was clear that the activities and exhibits were intended for much younger children.
