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?

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.

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

Well worth...
