Traveler reviews
Meshal
★★★★★a year agoLoved the experience and experiments here ! It’s an interesting place and I spent almost 2 hours here just exploring everything related to space and biology. They also have some animals and some cool experiments in the end. The host is really nice and explains everything in French + English if you need. However all the writing and VR is in French so if you don’t speak the language you can’t make the most of the experience. Nevertheless I still highly recommend and think it’s a great activity to do with kids or just friends

★★★★★9 months agoHonestly, I expected more. Too much waiting for each turning of the stations. It’s ok for kids but it’s lack of letting kids DIY. the explanations are quite short and a lot of video watching. VR things to take is recommended cause it’s actually fun. Without it, the whole experience is a bit dull.
