Exploratorium, San Francisco

This is a fantastic place. Its not quite a museum as its more about experimental science. It would be easy to spend a whole day here, and I wish we'd had more time. We really enjoyed our time here and spent a lot of time going through half of the place, not even realizing just how much was left. I would recommended this for anyone with kids and even if you don't have kids. There's neat things to check out outside.

I would highly recommend this to anyone that cares even the tiniest bit about science. It's a lot of fun and not too expensive. If you're an adult I'd also recommend the After Dark experience. It's nice not having a bunch of kids around. There was a pretty strong college vibe the night I went. Also, they sell really tasty cocktails at multiple points in the facility. Overall, it's just a lot of fun. Fair warning though, 4 hours isn't enough time to see everything if you attend the special event and try the tactile dome.

I had not come here since I was young. My mom and I decided to go to see the new building, and I am definitely regretting not coming sooner. We loved all the fun and educational stations! As an educator I really enjoyed all the hands on STEAM materials and ideas. I also loved seeing all the kids having fun while learning about the various topics. I would definitely recommend coming here. If you are a teacher you can email them about getting a free day pass.

Fantastic discovery museum space for kids from 1 to 92. Would be brilliant for a date! My 4 year old loved it, as did her dad. Loads of hands on stuff, good explanations and well distributed so it wasn't too crowded on a Friday afternoon. The gift shop was fabulous too, and the cafe looked lovely, although it was closing as we arrived. Tickets are pricey but it's great fun so worth it.

Superb museum. Wish they had this kind of place when I was a kid. All features are imaginative and interactive. Brings out the kid inside of all of us. Was jammed with little ones on Saturday but I guess that's a sign of how good this place is. Would certainly recommend to people with young kids. And would recommend to adults, but perhaps outside of kid rush hour!
