My first time here with my kids and husband. I really like that there is a teacher discount of free admittance for me. Alot of things to play and look at. Very interesting facts in the museum.

We really enjoyed our time here. I think it was fun for all ages not just the kids. We could have easily spent a few hours here doing everything. There were a few things that didnt work but most of the stuff to do and see was very interesting.

The daily price is simply not reasonable. I bought two annual passes for 2 of my younger children, and they really enjoyed it. However, I could not justify my other kid or myself doing more than watch.3 stars for the overall experience. The 4th star for some great staff.

WonderWorks offers something interesting for everyone in the family! Played laser tag til 1am! You can sometimes find a coupon or some kind of special for a discount.

It was okay. Not as thrilling as they make it out to be. Youd have a better time going to 5 Wits. Now that was worth the money.

Very poor customer service by one guy. We had to wait around 20 minutes and werent told the little tikes area wasnt open yet when we bought tickets. My son enjoyed it but much smaller than I imagined

This is a truly great experience for a child not to be missed. Buying two rides saves you a lot of money. Its highly interactive. The best ones are the mummy and the dragon. The mummy one has a strong Indiana Jones vibe.

Great for the whole family. Had a wonderful time. Groupn has coupons now and then that make it a bit more easy on the pockets. But well worth it.

This place is awesome. Great entertainment for adults, children, and adult children. So many fun things to play with and experience. There were a couple exhibits closed but it didnt detract from the overall experience at all. The staff was friendly and attentive. Lots of patrons but theres enough to do that you can circle back if something is occupied. I LOVED THE BUBBLES. as a grown man in his 30s I could have played in the Buble area for at least an hour. My 9 year old loved it and played here for hours. We signed him up for the VIP pass which allowed him the canyon climb, wonderworks, and Lazer tag. Id say the only detractor was the country music playing in the Lazer tag lobby. Gross.

The rope course is good for thrill seekers, several exhibits were malfunctioning, but those that worked were fun for the kids

Amazing place! The ropes course was astounding we spent almost 3 hours up there! Laser tag, the museum all amazing

Review №25

A lot of the exhibits were either out or order or just plain not working. They should deduct dollars for not getting the full experience. Other than that no complaints

Awesome place for kids to explore and even learn some science (shhhh dont tell them that). Staff was friendly and exhibits were exciting. Ropes course was awesome and at times terrifying :). Overall a great place to spend the day!

Br
Review №29

The S.T.E.M. learning that is produced here under the auspices of fun is amazing. Every time we go, my kids walk out describing some Physics or other Scientific related thing that shows that they picked up on something new. Places like WonderWorks engage our childrens minds and get them interested in becoming leaders in the development of our future.

Oh my gosh...I cant tell you how much there is. This is something you just got to try before you understand. Im hoping to take my younger two there next year for their birthday. Yes I will pull them from school for it. Im not done for crowds. We go on a school day and there will be more times for fun. The staff super helpful, friendly, they are willing to talk about everything. My favorite part they are really support and feel like they are making a difference. Its awesome... Cant wait to return.

We went with a group of students and families. Very accommodating to us. With the a multi activity pass we wandered through the Wonderworks activities - something for everyone from small children through adults. Then many of us did laser tag - not a huge playing field but still a lot of fun. Next many from our group went on the ropes course -- so cool! Looking down over 2 stories of the mall - but very safely harnessed. Great experience.

Review №46

It was something to do. I had a Groupon because I definitely would not have paid the full price. At regular price its extremely overpriced for what it is. My kids are 16 and 13, they are a little too old to find this that interesting.

Review №47

I had such a hilariously fun time at WonderWorks this past weekend. We went on the ropes course with our 11-year-old friends, but I felt like a kid myself as I walked with trepidation out over the mall shoppers. The ropes course has a series of obstacles connected to different islands and several levels where you can walk between. While scary at first, you quickly learn to trust the rope holding you to the track above everyones heads. It is really a very fun thing to do for people of all ages. I would have never gone on my own, but ended up having a great time!

Did the laser tag this time around with the kiddos. They and I had a blast, we did three rounds. Good fun, staff was great. Wish the equipment was I little better maintained. The clasps that held your vests on specifically, two of the four of them were broken on most vests. All in all, a decent time and would do it again.

Ja
Review №51

We took our 4 kids there (ages 6-12) and there were enough activities to keep them all entertained for hours. My only suggestion would be to go during off peak times as I suspect that it would be quite hectic during prime visiting hours.

This place used to be amazing. Time has not treated it well. Many of the interactive displays are either not working, or functioning improperly. Upkeep is not evident as this place has deteriorated greatly over the years.

My family used to love this place. It was underwhelming the last time we visited. Many exhibits were broken, and some of the staff was rude and acted like we were inconveniencing them when they had to operate the exhibits.

I took my little brothers here to go up on the ropes course. One of them started to freak out and cry once we got up there. One of the employees came over and calmed him down. She was so amazing with him and I couldnt thank her enough. I believe her name was Kate.

Review №81

I visited with my 9 year old. Great hands on exhibits. Very fun and educational for children and adults. Staff was very nice and accommodating, although they speak a little too fast because they have been repeating the same things for so long. We were a little disappointed at first because several of the exhibits were down, however, they were fixed very quickly. We will definitely be visiting again.

This was a fun spot to spend some time and learn some things. Wasnt overly busy and the staff was very friendly.

Ma
Review №85

2 of the major exhibits were not working and being repaired per posted signs. On a holiday when there is no school all exhibits should be operational. The Google map exhibit was very glitchy and not working properly. I did not appreciate being asked for ID especially when the cost of 2 tickets is less than what other retailers require a signature for. The titanic exhibit was cool and shuttle landing exhibit was interesting.

Review №86

Short on staff, some staffers working at one station then shutting down to work another. Waited for the Apache experience and nobody showed even after 2 staffers walking by.

Waste of time and cash.Awful. Many non functional displays.

Tw
Review №88

They have an astronaut suit for kids to pose in that has fabric on the inside of the helmet where kids stick their faces ... it is one enormous lice hazard. There should never be fabric in something that touches thousands of childrens heads.Incredibly unhygenic. Human health hazard.Ropes course gets 5 stars. Wonder works itself is a fairly boring experience. Bathrooms were not very clean.

Review №91

This place was one of the bigger surprises for me in the new area of Destiny. I was chaperoning a large group of high schoolers. So while I figured they would have fun, I didnt anticipate how much this place would appeal to all ages.When we first arrived the private room was all set to go and they were ready with the wrist bands, explaining what would be available to the group. I was impressed with how effectively they communicated all the information and safety precautions to such a large group.Once everyone was set loose, I noticed that while they didnt have every exhibit staffed at all times, there was never a lack of something fun to do. It was actually a bit overwhelming. There is more in there than you would think. For sure more than can be tackled in one day.Laser tag ran smoothly without any malfunctions, like some places that I have been to. And the ropes course seemed very safe. The staff could have been a bit nicer to one or two students with fears of heights but it wasnt bad enough to dock a star. Make sure you leave yourself enough time to explore the entire thing before they close. You might want to start with that.Overall, whether you want to learn the science behind all of the exhibits, or just enjoy spinning around, this place has a lot to offer. I would for sure recommend the unlimited VIP bands so you can experience it all. Get a group together and check it out.

We had a great time with two 15 year old girls at Wonderworks. We used Groupon and were able to purchase 4 VIP passes for $55. We enjoyed wonderworks and laser tag. I was surprised that the girls enjoyed wonderworks, I was worried they’d be too old, but they had a good time. Laser tag was fun but brief and smaller than I’d prefer. Our passes also included the ropes course but we didn’t have the right shoes for that so we skipped it. We had fun and were able to spend a few hours enjoying ourselves without spending a fortune. I don’t feel it would have been worth it at full price ($27/person- $108 total) but was happy with the experience at the $55 price point.
