What makes it 80% Couple-Friendly: Hands-on galleries, indoor rainforest strolls and planetarium seats allow shared discovery, yet the family-oriented environment and bright lighting provide limited intimacy for couples seeking romance.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for couple trip: Enough time to explore key exhibits, enjoy a planetarium show, and relax without rushing.
Flooded Forest:
Walk through the indoor Amazon rainforest and observe fish, birds, and lush plants.
Tip: Start here to beat the crowd and capture photos in soft morning light.
Planetarium Show:
Enjoy a 3D astronomy presentation under the dome.
Tip: Book the show online (€6 pp) to secure seats side by side.
Tree of Life Staircase:
Admire the central spiral staircase wrapping around a giant dead tree.
Tip: Use this spot for dramatic couple portraits with museum architecture.
Science Demonstration:
Watch live experiments on low-temperature physics in the ‘Frío, frío’ show.
Tip: Arrive 10 minutes early to get front-row seats and better views of demos.
Indoor Gardens & Café:
Relax over coffee or a light meal surrounded by moss walls and greenery.
Tip: Order tapas to share and compare notes on favorite exhibits.

The kids spent the most time on the bottom floor trying the different experiments. We ate in the cafeteria which had plenty of options and was affordable. The buffet restaurant also seemed good but did not open until 1 PM. Would have appreciat...
The museum is climate-controlled year-round. Visit weekday mornings in summer to avoid peak crowds.
