How Baby-Friendly is Dinosauria Park?

76%Baby-Friendly
View Map

What makes it 76% Baby-Friendly: Smooth paths fit strollers and the free baby-changing station helps carers, but no dedicated nursing room and loud effects in 5D cinema limit comfort, so infants may only tolerate a short visit.

Spent the day here with my son and had the best time. There is so much to do! A dinosaur museum, the floor is lava, animatronic dinosaurs, a dinosaur hospital, science museum, planetarium, 5D cinema, VR experience. All the staff were friendly and helpful, and great food. Highly recommend.

We went during the morning with two kids (5,3 yo). They enjoyed it, we were there almost 3 hours. There are different activities that are available with no extra money (guess who? Puzzles, excavations, dinosaur hospital, playground). There are benches to sit and even some shade from the trees. At the end, we bought a pizza (tasting) from the restaurant and some games for the kids from the souvenir...

Our son enjoyed the park, specially the doctor animation that was really nice. We did the cinema 5D where the first part was a bit out of context and the second part scared or 3 years old son. I would recommend this for kids at least 5 years old (?) It was calm, not many people, don’t need to book on the internet there was no queue at all

More so for kids so if you have a child, go there for...

We spent the extra £5 each to explore the science area. Which was well worth it and we spend another hour in here. The dinosaures were amazing. The hospital tour was good. The kids had a great time. Well worth...
