No More HalosOctober 5, 2015The greatest museum I've ever been in my life! The ticket is only 4€ and you'll get to see a real part of the Amazon forest and learn a lot about science and physics. Definately a must in the city!!!
Armen NurbekyanJanuary 19, 2017One of the best places in Barcelona. Kids of all ages love it. Tickets are 4 euros only. Try to visit during the first half of the day; some rooms were closed in the afternoon.
RAKANFebruary 18, 2023Nice museum suitable for both kids and adults. a place was filled with so many intricate little experiments, and indoor rainforest was great ✨ so the planetarium🪐 I would come to the museum again 🔅
Stephanie IpOctober 31, 2018Loved the main ground with all the science activities! The rainforest was also interesting, although a very short walk. The rest of the floors were less interesting. Good for an afternoon!
LilyJanuary 19, 2017You can spend a week here and even won't notice. A very good place to visit with kids they can have so much fun and learn a lot of smart staff lol
- Tim TijssensMarch 4, 2018Great mixture science museum with slices of history only 4 euros so great value, this should be the number one price quality attraction
Jen RouseOctober 14, 2016Best science museum I've ever visited. The flooded forest!! 😍😍😍 Spend a whole day there if you've got kids (or if you haven't)...
BubbleNovember 16, 2014Museum with science experiments that you interact with, presentation could be better. Flooded forest is really good! Small recreation of a real tropical forest. It has a capybara! Drug section, lame!
johnlemonApril 5, 2017Rain forest was really cool to see! The museum is really interactive, great for a wide range of ages.
- Ｌｅｏ DW8RNovember 24, 2015Very interesting museum, if you're into science. Situated outside the busy tourist center of Barcelona, but easily accessible by public transport. Nice to visit if the city center is too humid.
- Andre RauchAugust 1, 2018Interesting museum. Ideal for children - and adults!!! - because they can try a lot of experiments, activities, planetarium movies, small forest with animals and plants.
Robert CarbonellJuly 26, 2016Best Science museum ever. Interactive. good ambiance. well organized and for all ages.
TemoAugust 21, 2017My favorite and the best science museum I've ever visited ❤️ Also i liked food court here, just pay 15€ and take whatever u want 👌🏼
Nele HofmanSeptember 23, 2017Very interesting but also fun exhibitions! Only 4 euro for entrance and you could definitely spend a whole day there. For both kids and adults!
Thirumagal MahendranJuly 25, 2014Super place for both kids and adults. I did't expect to be so interesting. A must in Barcelona and allocate atleast 3-5hrs. We were there over 7 hrs.- Ania DukoctbNovember 19, 2015Spent here 3 hours. But still need more! Great place! Come here with children or not, you`ll find out a lot of interesting things.
Rafael MarinSeptember 3, 2011This is an exceptional, awesome museum full of great discoveries and the mystery of science. I just get amazed by every new insight I unveil every time I visit the museum. Two thumbs up!
Oscar RenaliasJuly 30, 2013This museum is just awesome, with loads of interactive experiences for kids and adults alike. Also the 3D sessions in the planetarium are worth visiting.
Imagine for a moment a tropical rain or a volcanic eruption... in Barcelona ... One of the largest science museum in Europe with its 50.000m2 and various rooms with different atmospheres.
Matthias de JongOctober 26, 2012One of the coolest museums in Barcelona! You really have to go there if you're in BCN. I really like the way they are kind of playing with science!
Diego SpinolaDecember 5, 2014Wonderful Science museum , lots of interactive science demonstrations , you can easily spend a whole afternoon exploring it all...
Evgenia UglovaJanuary 8, 2015Very nice collection, but it's probably more interesting for children. Timecapsule - great idea 💡
Peter BurriJuly 31, 2012For young and old professors, for those who love science and for those who don't. There are some really great experiments you can do. The temporary exhibitions are awesome plus entry is only 4 Euros.
