CITE DE L'ESPACE Reviews

Much too expensive for the proposed experience. Park in disuse, poorly maintained attractions, no renewal. 24 for 2 films of 30min and 10 panels in a garden: it is exorbitant!

Very nice place that I had the chance to visit several times. the must have been a guided tour with primary students. The explanations were perfectly child-friendly and very interesting. For Toulouse, it is good to take a subscription to the year, it allows to spend when you want to visit the museum at will.

Always very interesting, and constantly evolving. Highly recommended for children.

Ideal place to go with the family, well structured, super friendly assistants, speak English, French and Spanish. Fun and educational attractions. We had a great time both small and large !!!

Extremely above our visit. We left after 2 hours on the spot.
Can not access the video rooms of the planetarium. Tails of several hours without certainty to pass. Very old models. We do not even see through the windows anymore. The park is tiny and does not warrant such a price. The restoration is to flee. We never expect to eat well in a park, but the .....
100 to 4 with meals, not to be able to access the interesting things. A real disappointment.

Very poor indication of the plan, not described and poor quality of work in my opinion they can do much better

A superb exhibition with many interactive screens for children. Animations on the void and other very interesting things. We stayed 10 hours in the park (with the two children) and we left without having done everything because a little tired.

Very informative but not really suitable for all ages

Excellent, entertaining and complete museum on astronautics and astronomy. All contents are in French Spanish and English. Many interactive zones.
You can enter with food and drink outside.

Very informative and fun. Food good value for money. One day is enough to do everything if there are not many people. A small attraction would be a plus, as in the city of the sea of Cherbourg "we walked under the sea" to adapt at the level of space.

Full eyes, I advise.

Animations would be a plus, if not top top top head in the stars lolllll

Really nice. Lots to see and learn :). For young and old!

Interesting theme even if this park seems victim of its success. Animations often down, crowded activities (impossible to do the planetarium or the Imax without waiting at least 1 hour in the queue), tasteless restoration, expensive, for which we waited 30 minutes to 14:30 (because before it is even longer) . For the 20th day, ask yourself the right questions.

You can see the Ariane rockrt and a Soyuz spacecraft on display.

I had a good day in this park. There are many activities and 1 day is not enough if you want to do everything thoroughly. Nevertheless, there are some negative points:
- the park is aging and will need a renovation (which is being done little by little)
- staff on several activities at once, and not enough representations of the same activity during the day. Which means that if you magnify the activity, you can not do it anymore.

This city is not up to what it sells: dream ...
The park is aging, the activities not frankly extraordinary.
In addition, the IMAX was under renovation, but nobody told us, it is not even put on the site nor displayed at the entrance, in short, no info on the closure of the attraction main site and no commercial "gesture" of course ...! And even if the staff is "nice" it is unprofessional. This park is at least 10 years late ...

I had a great day at this informative museum. There are plenty of things to do.

Very high entrance fee (24 euros). Soporific visit ... Too much virtual kills the virtual. Not enough scenery. The walls embellished with giant stickers are not enough to immerse us in the space atmosphere. No lunar floor reconstruction for hanging animation with elastics. Only a very basic decor ... Most virtual "interactive" animations are based on the same principle of operation. No renewal. In fact, two or three of them did not work properly when we came. Very high restaurant consumption rates. In short, it's done and it's more to do.

Too much fun teaching with lots of games for children, but nothing interesting for an adult. At the price of 25.50 it is not worth it. I went around in 1 hour and a half, and yet the subject fascinates me. For comparison, it took me 2 full days to visit the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Cannaveral, Florida.

The imax cinemas not to be missed, the film on the Northern Lights and the placement of the stars, observation of the sky. Wonderful, the constellations, the rotation of the earth.
I regret a little the lack of activity and workshop in this park, surely in spring and summer, it was raining when I was there this winter. Very nice store on the universe of space.

Our hosts are always inspiring and full of ideas to share. The animations are good, the large scale space vehicle and satellite examples are terrific. The restaurant is good, too.

Really great, me who revels the popularization here everything is simple and clear

bof blah blah ... some screens that did not work, it does not care much with the ticket price + 20 euros. The food deguelasse and super expensive! An adult menu with a poor sausage and fries and a bottle of water 11.90 euros frankly it's the catch con like me ... Service not terrible .... And about the animations, then you have to be at the time and there is a maximum number for some animations..Reasonably disappointing overall ....

This museum is great for both young and old alike, living in Toulouse, I highly recommend it to tourists who come on vacation to our beautiful city !!!

Very interesting, whether for people who are new or to improve their knowledge.
Lots of entertainment, for young and old. Plan to go when it opens, there is a lot to see. And even in 8 hours we don't have time to do everything.
Plan to go back at least once, otherwise select what you want to see.
The animators know their subject, anecdotes and fallen myths are at the rendezvous!
A special mention to the planetarium, we took an extraordinary trip to space with our feet on Earth.

Too good I love the game of questions where you have to press the buttons

Great museum that gives many interesting insights into the space missions. Highly recommended if you are in the Toulouse area.

Quite interesting but too expensive and lack of activity for the little ones to explore the space! A little disappointed children!

breathtaking, few people on August 15, we did all the shows, mounted in soyouz, the astronaut restaurant, is really great, homemade, it's fresh and not expensive

very disappointed excessive price limit burger meal I strongly advise against avoiding

Interesting exhibition but at a price too high: 24 for adults and 17 for children.
We arrived at 15h and the first information we were given and the closing time (18:00). The hospitality of Toulouse is not put forward ... and the restoration points were already closing at 4:45 pm!
The visit, on several floors, with a large number of fun and interactive activities, is rewarding. Speakers punctually adorn the exhibitions.
The welcome is to improve.

A real sham. Apart from the planetarium, no interest. The exhibition consists of an accumulation of touch screens and poor quality projections. No beautiful models, no historical objects, no meteorite, no reference to the latest advances, the latest technologies etc ... When we see that the model of MIR still sits in the garden and not ISS and the robot curiosity serves simple decoration in front of the restaurant.
If your child loves space, let the YouTube front to watch Space X launches is more useful.

A good day fun. For those who have their heads in the stars.

1000 times better than the Space center of Houston! But seats are expensive.

Prices vary depending on the period, too expensive for workshops of another age, we were served bagles that had at least 48 hours of fridge at the full price. In short, in our opinion, a good tourist trap. Let's not talk about COVID measures, gel bottles regularly empty, forward march respected and monitored on entry and exit, in the middle, people do not respect anything !!! When to a discount report to closed activities due to virus, let's not dream !!!

We learned things there, but it is way too old-fashioned and really not fun. I have visited dozens of parks and museums and this is the worst I have done.

It was my favorite destination when I was a child. Now it has become my Madeleine de Proust. It's a great place where you learn a mountain of things. The work is progressing slowly but we forgive them. Big positive point with their guide Nicolas, here is a real enthusiast!

Excellent and very complete site to spend the whole day without stopping for a moment to see new things and entertaining. One of the best aerospace facilities I've ever seen. Cheap to enter, eat at a good price and hilarious.

Too many people too badly organized tail. Especially the very old Mir station

We like it a lot. We went there as a family including 2 children (5 and 7 years old). It is adapted to their ages. After that depends on their interest in the subject. The city of space was well suited to them: activities, entertainment, films, fun areas, WC .....

Interesting and informative park but not super '' fun '' ... All the activities are done in a serious manner and without much enthusiasm, we lived the experience as very academic ...

Despite everything, a magnificent film in the eyes of Thomas Pesquet!

To do and redo according to the age of the children, I recommend!

educational park. Do not confuse with
theme park. Highly recommended

Average reception conditions
Limited indoor exhibition spaces
This hurts the whole, even if the scientific and educational content is of quality

Excellent day, the astronaut expo is brilliant and the animation living like an astronaut very playful (to do with your children. Please note that there are few places for many volunteers).
The animation "in a vacuum" is disappointing because the experiences are already known.
The entertainment going up in the Soyuz is top notch. This is a real Soyuz. You can ask the host for explanations, he is very nice.
The price of the hot-dog menu with a small packet of crisps and a drink is 6.90 euros but you can easily digest it by eating next to the Ariane rocket.
Rocket animation for children is to be done, children love it.
The small problem of the day is that some animations are a bit old-fashioned, especially for children in the children's base ... one of the videos shows pluto as a planet in our solar system ... in short, updates must be made. And some animations are broken in the permanent exhibition.
But if not to do and redo because impossible to do everything in one day ... we will come back with great pleasure.

Not suitable for children under 6/7 years old. One day is not enough to do everything, to prepare well in advance.
There is a long wait on the two attractions (moonrunner and rotary seat).

Imax: disappointing image quality. The doc on Thomas Pesquet is average, not as good as the one for Special Envoy.

Planetarium: great.

Highly recommended to visit, there are exhibitions also inside. Everything is very didactic. Almost everything is in Spanish, including the cinema

A museum that allows children and adults to understand the mysteries of the solar system.
The site is adapted in several languages, the staff is nice and qualify.
A whole day is advisable to do everything
The only downside, the price a little too expensive.
A remake absolutely

Overall very nice with lout of stuff to do and interactive stuff. The restaurant staff however could have been more service minded and therefore a star less.

It is a kind of Cosmo Caixa of Barcelona but with a park outside with exhibitions on the planets as well as a space station that you can enter.
In the buildings you have the IMAX and the Planetarium that are worth it.
And in the entrance building you find most of the exhibitions and the main restaurant. Avoid rush hours to eat. From 14.30 you will find fewer people.
In general we find fewer people than expected (early August). and there were no crowds.
Buy tickets before on the web to enter faster.
I recommend the IBis budget that are ahead.
to get from the center, you take a subway to Joliment, and 37 to the entrance. 2 per person in total.

Passionate about space, it's a perfect place to introduce my passion to my little family. We have the annual pass and even our three year old daughter loves it!

Very good home and very good discovery on the space.

Set dedicated to human life in space, don't expect to see pictures or to know more about planets, comets, molecular clouds etc ... Nice set I think for children. 2.4 stars ....

We attended the nocturnes between adults last night. The idea of departure is excellent however, we really remained on our hunger for the price. The planetarium film on the aurora borealis is boring and the soundtrack of Inuit is at least laughable .... it should extend the explanatory part on the stars of the sky of the moment. The IMAX session on Thomas Pasquet is nice although it remains outdated quality with today's technologies. Nice fireworks. It will probably be appreciated by little children ...

Far too many school groups! Impossible to do everything because the groups filled the rooms. Really disappointed because the city is very well done.

I love the city of spaces the shop is great the fusse is very large in short I love

The children loved it, full of playful experience to learn and understand the life of astronauts

I put 4 * because the room where we can turn, it is too slow! Otherwise there is a restaurant with fries and in less than 5 minutes it is served! The cinema is big but for the planetarium, I do not like it when they talk about the weather! Even a bookstore! All about space, museum accessible to the disabled! Even thebanimaus who fly in space! But the first dog that went into space died after 5 hours due to high temperature! Everything, even a playground! Great no?

Interesting for both adults and children with various animations and projections. Very kind and helpful staff. Clean place

We feel the unhappiness of the employees from the reception where we were strongly recommended to do certain things rather than others in the order in which the receptionist had decided.
There is no room where the restaurant employees eat and they share the room with the customers.
Ordered a coffee and a chocolate muffin but the industrial plastic muffin thrown on the tray, it's up to the customer to make their own coffee with capsules.
Most of the installations are reproductions / models and not real devices that have been used, what a disappointment!
Too many indoor fun facilities.
Very beautiful ASTRALIA projection room, despite the cries and tears of the children! I do not understand that we can pay 21.50 and have to endure these permanent screams in a room which however lent itself to relaxation and relaxation.
Live commentary was not always accurate and was corrected by the live commentator.
The latter's intonation only validates the poor salaries of the site's employees.

Nice exhibition of the history of aircraft industry. A great way spend half your day if interested in aircrafts.

Disappointing! It is not worth coming to see the park that although it has some interesting little thing is small and expensive for what it offers. Any science museum is better. The ominous service, we entered the park about 10 and went to the two most requested planetarium attractions and then the IMAX. The restaurant hours indicated until 2:30 pm, we left at 2:00 pm at the IMAX and the restaurant closed, in the cafeteria, not a sad sandwich. I think a place so it is also far from any restaurant should have better service. I do not recommend at all.

Entrance too expensive for what we achieved! Little explanation at the ticket office to explain the various attractions canceled due to the health situation. Pity...
Fortunately, Thomas Pesquet's exhibition is great, it allows you to measure everything an astronaut has to overcome to be up to the task. Also, the exhibition is a must see!
Little more not insignificant we saw the launch of the rover for the mission "Mars 2020 live from the city of space! Two members of the staff were kind to us to explain the inconveniences of the Park due to this exceptional day. ! Attractions closed ... In addition to those related to Covid ...

I came 14 years ago with my eldest son mtn he is 18 and a half with the restaurants of the heart of Figeac ... a very good memory ... and I would like to bring my 11 year old one day

More for teenagers because a lot of very well done videos, points to eat, organize your day well in advance because the animations take place over a whole day

To have. Staff is very smiling. Suitable for children from 8/9 years old. For the little ones, too long. I'll be back.

Theme park perfect for visiting as a family as with sun. There are a lot of activities to do and experience what it's like to be an astronaut, learn about our universe, using modern and efficient technology, ... to repeat it again.

I was expecting something more like an amusement park, but it is very didactic, based on school. There is a kind of interactive educational museum, pleasant and interesting but too long. The planetarium where various 3D space shows are projected on the dome, very nice and effect but there are times and a lot of queue. In short, it is a must try if you are really interested in information on space or if you want to spend an alternative afternoon. But I wouldn't go to Toulouse specifically for that.

A top exhibition, a breathtaking Imax, very impressive.
It took us about 4 hours to go around everything and enjoy the imax and the planetarium

Nice day and great discoveries. Too short in 1 time. We will come back to it. By cons, a little disappointed with the city of children, a single animation that had started, and which resumed only an hour later. In the end our 4 year old son did not join this room more than that. I wonder what the 8 year olds will be able to do there ...

I find it too expensive to pay almost 22 euros for this museum. I liked the Planetarium, but some activities as a possibility to climb into a cell is proposed only in the morning before noon. You must know in advance! The warm welcome and accurate information. The shop offers a large selection of souvenirs.

Unmissable place to visit in the region. Lots of different and educational activities. Well presented and explained, the animators are at your disposal.

We learn a lot from. Hoses on space, the sun, the earth, the moon

Very good museum, 1 day is not enough to see everything!
Information and exhibitions on many topics concerning space, meteorology etc.
a dome-shaped cinema-style room to watch the space, a conference room open to the public when one is underway (I saw the exhibition on Rosetta).
Only negative point, the restoration, better come with food.
