Fondazione Idis-Città della Scienza Review

Absolutely to visit at least once. We liked it ... very much

Structure with enormous potential that with a minimum of commitment and will could be a reference attraction for many tourists coming to Naples. Entrance far from the ticket office, fountain with turtles full of algae and dirt, planetarium that for "technical" reasons the afternoon is not working without the knowledge of most of the staff, newly refurbished not accessible bridge. The structure as a whole is well built with the presence of three pavilions (human body, fish and insects) and the planetarium. The best is the most modern of the human body with many educational games available for children. A tribute to the Salvatore guide and his explanations on the marine world. You can see everything in half a day. Nice overall but it could be better managed.

Because every time you come back you never stop learning

Underwater world and the workshop of the closed children, no notice on the site. Huge potential, well-kept structure but still a lot to do and reactivate.
We will be back soon with the hope of finding everything working and being able to put 5 stars

Beautiful and absolutely suitable for kids of all ages.

Truly beautiful experience.
Excellent organization. The exhibitions are detached starting from the interactive exhibition of the human body and then continuing on a bridge that offers a wonderful view of the sea to get to the exhibition area the sea, insects and the interactive bicycle exhibition.
I'll be back for the planetarium!

We made a partial visit of the exhibitions taking place with the planetarium show: all very interesting and in particular I recommend the insect show & co ... we ate well at the alma flegrea refreshment point even if the 10 euro menu is perhaps a bit shriveled. In any case, the experience is very pleasant.

Disgusting ... if you are not part of a school group or other nobody takes you into consideration ... disorganization is the predominant factor .. it should and could be a point of reference but as always the bad management typical of our south manages to ruin everything ... never again

Very nice experience for both kids and adults, to visit.

Wonderful place, and after the fire I can admit that it continues to live, always magnificent, always beautiful and always full of energy and splendor, I am really happy about this and these beautiful initiatives, because they always make us hope for a better future

I was there quite a few years ago. It was a well-made, well-organized structure.

It was the pride of Naples, of good Naples, of real Naples.
Absolutely must be rebuilt, absolutely !!!

All in all, the experience was positive, but several problems emerged. The directions are not clear, many have had difficulty as we find the directions of the ticket office. The parking lot was closed on a Sunday and even the restaurant inside, the bar only had packaged sandwiches. The workshops are interesting but it was not clear where to go. We need to improve to enhance a place that deserves so much.

Great potential in a promising context. Large spaces, diversification of the offer. Personal opinion, more for groups. Praise to redevelopment

A beautiful place!!! The 3D planetarium is an experience to do and to share with your children, it seemed to be inside the screen catapulted into infinite space, this morning I was practically on Venus, Mars, Jupiter and a comet !! The "corporeal" pavilion, on the other hand, makes us explore the human body in various facets and then ends up with the pavilions of the marine world and insects. There is also parking, restaurant and bar in short a place to visit and live ..

Very special and innovative structure, but unpleasant and aggressive unpleasant staff

Spectacular!!! very fun interactive games and educational, the Planetarium is an excellence in Europe. The Nemo, Amsterdam Science Museum with Renzo Piano's architecture, is worth a tenth of this spectacular structure. We will be back soon.

Spero che ritorno al vecchio splendore, sarebbe un vero peccato altrimenti.

Excellent organization, friendly guys and really prepared in the path related to the knowledge of the world of insects and the same in the marine. Fascinating the vision to the planetarium, very interesting 'body', unique the visit to the pavilion of "beauty of imaging" medical technology and contemporary art unexpectedly in union.A site that deserves to be visited, however it is not easy to move with public transport in Naples on holidays.The ideal would be a shuttle service from Naples city center to the city of science.

Magnificent experience, excellent judge.
Recommended for school and family outings. Advice.

we were kicked out in fourth grade I don't recommend going on trips for unimportant elementary kids we're kids (now I'm in first grade

Interesting place, good guides ... but I find the bar prices outrageous .... generally the public is made up of students who pay a rather expensive ticket, with sacrifice for families ... spending 2.50 for a can or a little pizza I think is out of size given the users ... maybe you could put distributors to favor the kids leaving the bar (with rates from the French Riviera) to adults .. if they want

Over time he has lost a lot but I'm sure he will recover.

Interesting ... a day that leaves so many discoveries

Warning! On Google it says open today and instead I found it closed on Monday. A trip for nothing
It is absurd that a place like this has a closing day and, moreover, it is not publicized clearly and in large letters. And that indeed on Google it is open on the closing day!

Amazing place to spend a culturally interesting Sunday, recommended the experience at the planetarium

I'm sure this was a blow to Naples and its culture
But we will build together!

I was here for a training course, Beautiful structure, functional, accessible by bus, Excellent services.

Scientific Center of Naples and pride after the renovation because of the fire broke out some time ago.

Very very nice but everything can be improved. In my opinion, it is of little use to bring everything back to the top; perhaps it would be useful for everyone to become passionately interested in this structure and its meaning. p.s .: catering and catering: excellent

Museum equipped with various species of fish, fascinating and interesting

Still closed; on the site they give an appointment in September. Before going, wait for precise information

Very interesting and innovative, but there are no paths for disabled children, for example you could use fake insects to make blind children touch and build ramps where there are stairs

Very interesting exhibitions, very available and professional staff.

Nice and very welcoming even if so organized it is not because of security that it is very important

I hope they rebuild it ... It was beautiful ... Does anyone know how to donate money? They said it at TG5 but I didn't mark it ...
FTV from Rome.

Exciting experience at the Planetarium and great guided tours of the insect and fish exhibits!

The place is interesting and captivating even if a little confusion does not allow for a serene acoustics. Negative experience with the bathrooms of the cottage near the Planetarium:
dirty and not working

I was to see "Corporea" and the Planetarium, beautiful experience :)

Many attractions don't work. Then people fought to use the attractions because there was no organization at all. Really bad experience. I hope they organize the queue for every attraction because a few days there is a fight

It's a fantastic place! The new 3D planetarium is spectacular

We went to the opening of a new season in this science city. Be sure to visit the video room of Newton. The human body department is beyond competition. Visit all the shows held by the staff of the center, it is very exciting and informative. Do not disregard the exhibition of bicycles. There is a bit of history and interesting facts that lovers of cycling should know.

Space used badly or better not used at all. There are only two open corporeal structures and the planetarium. I liked them very much, but outside the two structures the place is sad and the indications are not clear ... from the parking lot to the ticket office it took me 15 minutes because it was not clear where to enter.
The restaurant located in the so-called incubator, dark place left to itself, was not even indicated and it was a cold place untapped, sad! I would have many other things to say but I am Neapolitan and it hurts me to see that in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, there is no conscience to maintain and take care of what we have!

After the fire that struck the building a while ago, I was a bit disappointed because there are not many activities to do and the restaurant is nothing more than a prohibitive canteen considering the quality of the food and the service. Especially suitable for small children and school trips.

A strange place, some exhibitions are very good, e.g. Corporea, while parts of the marine and insects exhibits seem to be neglected and partially broken. Also no place to have lunch or buy any food, except for a desrted and cold cafeteria with a few snacks.

An ideal place to get to know our body and the secrets of science.

Beautiful experience nn is no longer the city of science of the past but have equipped themselves well to bring it back to splendor
The children and the boys were delighted

It's interactive. Towards October we will return to see the solar system in 3D. It will be the only one in Italy

An enchanted place to discover the secrets of science in all simplicity, with lots of fun and at any age! Fantastic guides, prepared, extremely coordinated and available! A special thanks goes to Raffaele a Corporea ... Patient and very kind to my children. If I were a teacher, I wouldn't leave out the city of science for an educational trip! Absolutely recommended! Ps. For an optimal visit, it is better to call and ask which route is most suitable based on age.

the stars should be 4 for the 3D planetarium and the part on the human body, technologically speaking well done, in step with the times. But we come to the stars missing, starting right from the human body department, maybe you the little guy with a beard is prepared, but to tell children who have the flat encephalogram just because they did not know how to answer it seems totally wrong. The same route faced the streets of the Sea where the "professor I know everything" never gave time to the children always to respond, and never used words to make people understand why of a thing, churning out names that to a child import, a lot of beautiful school that serves him, a child serves the way to behave and be able to say two words, but right, rejected as a person absolutely. Restaurant absent even if reported on site as open, leaving participants without food, if not to be found outside. Show in 2d always the planetary boring, cometely distant from the one seen in 3d in the morning. Department of absent insects, apart from 3 types of ants and a scorpion (which does not seem to me an insect, maybe wrong), the ant boy, I must say very nice, the only one who explained in a simple and right way to my daughter and to other children. Structure in general pleasant, organization by a star. Too bad, the potential is there, but change the insiders, or people run away before the end of the lesson.

The city of science is an absolutely non-traditional museum, which pushes, through interaction, to actively participate in the learning process.
After the fire, unfortunately, it has lost very beautiful sections, such as those dedicated to physics and astronomy, evolution and large spaces for large temporary exhibitions.
Currently the bulk of the museum consists of the Corporea building (dedicated to the physiology of the human body) and the large 3d planetarium while, on the sea side of the complex, there are small but very interesting displays on the world of insects (but also arachnids etc.), on the marine world and any temporary exhibitions.
The staff present in the museum is also highly trained and educated.

The city of science is like a lighthouse in an ex industrial area still to be recovered, the only defects are the poor connection with public transport and the emptiness around it, although the potential of the area is evident.

With the hope that the structure will expand soon, I rate it with five stars.

The place is a little out of the way, but the spaces are well managed and organized.
The structure is large because of the recovery of old industrial plants, such as some warehouses.
The management of the exhibitions is good, as are the prices ... Average.
The exhibition on the human body "the human body" was really beautiful, interesting and well articulated in its parts.
Polite and helpful staff.

My grandfather works there so I can go there as often as I want

Very modern and with many interactive possibilities to inspire young and old. We only visited the 3D planetarium and the "Corporea" so there is still a lot to discover. Unfortunately, not everything was open .. whether it was due to the holiday season? Employees very friendly but an info on the homepage about the open topics would have been desirable. Bus stops right in front of the entrance. We would have liked to see the other areas, maybe another time.

We hope it will have a long life because it provides a really nice educational offer.

Nice day with my family, everything organized well.

Not to be missed. For adults and children. Certainly a special place, but one that must also look at similar places abroad to inspire and improve

Io ci sono stato due volte ed era bellissimissima!!!(Ps.Ricostruiamola noi tutti Napoletani!!!):-) :-D :-) :-D

The City of Science is the first Italian interactive scientific museum. A place of experimentation, learning, fun, meeting and constructive dialogue with science and technology.

Bad organization. They made us arrive there without giving news on the site of the current strike. Children and families waited outside for nothing. Sunday ruined. I strongly advise against going to this place. There are better ones.

The guide named Luca did not make my children do anything, he said that there were 100 interactive games and that we would only make the most beautiful. In the end he told us that we would have to do 20 but in the end we didn't even make 4. My children were disappointed with the tutor's behavior and explanation saying that they will never come back and that they would make bad publicity.

It is always nice to see how science can enchant, amuse and amaze children and adults. A place to come and come back as soon as possible!

Place suitable for families even with small children, full of aquariums and innovative scientific techniques ...

Per i bambini, un pozzo di scienza. Ci tornano sempre volentieri

It should immediately be rebuilt as soon as there are funds and not let the Camorra do something to build something for their shady interests

From the start-up incubator to educational courses for children and families. From outdoor events to indoor exhibitions. There are many dining spaces. The Body exhibition is highly recommended: to dedicate at least half a day to it if you want to experience all the learning possibilities (although always presented in a nice and engaging way and never boring or heavy)! To come back!

A monstrous shit, I wonder why they say it's open, if I had known it was closed I wouldn't have given him money!

I find it absurd that in a place like this, which studies, teaches, experiments and protects the environment, you are not organizing yourself to carry out recycling. It's absurd ... what are you waiting for?

Totally renewed it is depopulated. Turnout to the max. Whole school groups flock to the premises. Recommended especially for children but also curious adults and science lovers.

good day passed between the enthusiasm of researchers and patients careful gentili..A lunchtime service not as a restaurant ..with long cold dishes served at the table waited unprofessional waiters ... The feeling is that of a restaurant not run by professionals to the work ... pity after having satisfied the mind we expected to do the same with the belly ... Rosario Sammarco

Not recommended. We came with the school and after using the bar, with exaggerated prices, we sat outside and they kicked us out. We waited 2 hours before entering the museum under the sun. It sucks!

Interessante e personale preparatissimo....davvero una bella giornata
