Highly recommended for any age. - Took our 10yo and his 80+ grandfather here as a self guided trip off a cruise ship. Everyone was mind-blown by the thoughtful and well presented exhibits. The staff were absolutely awesome too; friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It's only a short walk from the cruise terminal! Highly recommend 👌

Science to be experienced hands-on and with lots of fun! - Wonderful Museum which makes science fun and interesting! Excellent guides who really enjoy their job and workplace and love telling the visitors about the exhibits and explaining them if required. You'll enjoy how interaktive this museum is and leave fascinated by the illusions and underlying principles. Makes for a great day out with the family, with friends, on your own... I strongly recommend a visit to the special exhibition "Trail of angels". This is an extraordinary virtual reality experience in 3D based on works by M.K. Čiurlionis, a Lithuanian artist of Van Gogh's times. It is beautifully executed and so very enchanting! To the museum staff: thank you so much for your wonderful work, I enjoyed my visit very much and just know that others will too. 😊

Two hours of magic. - We loved the Museum and everything we saw. We also went with a little girl and she was attentive and excited throughout the visit. We stayed for two hours and it flew away. The girl and the two boys who accompanied us charming and at all times tried to facilitate the visit and adapts the explanations to the little one who accompanied us. Fully recommended.

Very nice, - Staff is very helpful to explain everything EN and very enthusiastic.. It is incredibly just, they constantly polish everything to make DE experience top. We what EN with e EN 13 EN 17 year old and they also liked DE and enjoyed the different setups. DE VR is fun to do, but not really worth its price. It is an experience to experience. But you get the feeling of nausea because of the visual image that accelerates you, but the body does not follow.
