Greensboro Science Center features a zoo, a museum with interactive exhibits, and an inland aquarium. You'll have the chance to see tigers, crocodiles, monkeys, and a screaming hairy armadillo, among other animals. Pet sheep, goats, small mammals, and reptiles. Look for a roaring 11 m (36 ft) Tyrannosaurus Rex model in the museum or walk through a giant interactive human body. In the aquarium, you can sign up for a behind-the-scenes tour and learn about different species of aquatic animals. You'll observe animals such as sharks, eels, penguins, and turtles up close. Leave time to check out the 3-D dome theater. A visit to Greensboro Science Center represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Greensboro holiday maker to plot your vacation.

This is a very good place to spend 3-4 hours with your kids. Mini zoo, mini aquarium, science movies; it got it all in just one place.

My son absolutely loved the penguins. Very nice aquarium. The zoo is cool and has a pets type zoo area. There is a lot for toddlers to do as well with play areas throughout the science center. The dinosaur exhibit is cool and so was the reptiles and such below! 2 levels and outside.

AMAZING! I Loved it and in the dinosaur room with those weird 3d hologram looking things were so cool. I loved the aquarium because it was really hot outside at the time but the outside zoo was also amazing. Unfortunately we didn't get to see all the animals because we were outside with a bunch of kids and we also didn't get to go to the petting zoo but it overall was an amazing experience and if it wasn't so far away I would probably go more often, I've only been once but I would definitely go back a few times.
