Science World at TELUS World of Science Review

You can play for one day!
It is fun even if you do not understand English because of the real experience that Japan does not have

Beeb going since kindergarten and used to have such a blast. First year UNI this and I went to show a friend who just moved to VAN and still had a blast. Great for all ages

Love coming to science world with my family. We only go once every couple of years but still so much fun.

Good exhibition and permanent displays, great for kids of all ages, including very young.

Science world is awesome. They have a range of interactive exhibits from the general free for all physical sciences to more demonstrational stations. They have a toddler, infant, young child area that is constantly monitored. The movie theatre is terrific and they often have great thoughtful movies about a range of science related themes. The membership is well worth the price if you plan on going more than 3 times a year. They also have special events for members and special opening times. Food in the cafeteria and snack area is good. The gift shop is overpriced but worth it to support the center and they have some pretty cool items.

good price and funny stuff inside. i recomend this place but for people under 15 years old because is the tipical place to teach new things to younger people

This place is fantastic! There really is something for everyone. The kids were really happy and even the grown ups had fun too! Hands on science at it's best.

Went with my kid today, perfect place to go visit for anyone interested in a knowledgeful fun exploratory adventure for kids and adults, exploring the sciences, extremely family oriented. Really enjoyed the Superpowers Dogs IMAX movie as well.

We love this place, is good fun for kids and adults. Awesome space to learn

A place you can enjoy at any age and for me brings back nostalgic memories

Open your mind when you're there, and you will understand.....

Always something for everyone, no matter their age.

My son loves it here!!! We could spend hours on end here. For anyone with a child I highly recommend getting a year pass as it's totally worth it for them and you'll have fun too.

Lots of fun things to try, see and do. However the layout was pretty chaotic and confusing, probably great for kids who are running pell mell from one thing to another, but not as good for those who are trying to find every exhibit. The prices are pretty steep - particularly as the general admission does not include access to all exhibits (we'd expect to pay separately for Omnimax, but not for temporary exhibits.)
We had concerns too about the conditions and quality of habitat for the few animals on site. The snakes and gekko were in tiny aquariums without a place to hide from incessant yelling and banging on the glass walls. And one, large chicken in the outside area looked very sick and was twitching her head constantly. It made us very sad and put a huge damper on our enjoyment of the visit.

Good for kids. Must visit mirror maze. It is the best parts

I could spend all day here! Lots of fun puzzles and cool exhibits. It may be geared towards kids, but I went with a couple friends because we had an hour or so to waste, and it was definitely worth the time and money. If you're looking for something fun to do in Vancouver, look no further.

Lots of playing and learning.
Great for all ages. IMAX short movies also excellent.

It s always the best indoor place for the kids to go in the weekend. We learn something different on every visit. Due to COVID the toddler playground and some of the facilities are closed but they did a good job to keep people 2 meters away from each other and keep things clean.

I always have so much fun here. It's not just for kids but there's also stuff for adults. There's exhibitions that always stay the same and some new ones that come every few months. It's a great place to spend your afternoon! Always something to learn too :)

Fun,interactive great playground fun feel . only down side other peoples kids cutting in front of your kids after waiting patiently ...sigh and the parents whoowy let there whole troup in just high browing .the place and staff are amazing .

Great place to take the kids on a Saturday or Sunday

So much to do. Very educational and fun for all ages.

Great place for kids and adults to explore. Memberships allow for unlimited visits and only cost the same as 2 or 3 visits. Lots of 2 hour parking nearby.

Basic Science good for the first few visits it should have more modernized and high quality equipment

Great place to take the kids and interactive environment makes it fun for the adults as well.

We went when this cat and dog show was. There were many people because it was free, it was more worth it. From there we went to see a very beautiful bear movie! I think we paid only 7 dollars and the screen is beautiful on the ceiling. It's very complete and big

Had a great time learning and having fun! I will be sure to drop by again next time I'm in Vancouver!

Always a great adventure for kids - from toddler to teen!

My 6 yr old loves everytime we go. I only started taking her a yr ago thinking she was too little otherwise but even little ones under 5 can enjoy while learning in their kiddy area. Bring a quarter to use their lockers so you can have free hands to explore

Interesting place with a decent variety of exhibits. One minute walk from the Main street metro station. However there are few things that can be better: 1. Movie is not included in the ticket and they charge extra for it. Gets pretty expensive to pay for a family ($30 per person). 2. There is no monitoring and many guests lack discipline. They misuse equipment and things like the magnifying glasses to view the grains of sand are smudged and dirty beyond use. Could have better monitoring and maintenance. 3. If you are vegetarian, the cafeteria has only cheese sandwich for you :-). All in all a decent place but not compelling enough to make you a repeat visitor.

100% for kids!!! More than 4 hours of fun for my 5 and 3 year olds

Great for kids, not so much for the adults though (guess I'm not really their target audience haha)

So great! Such a fun place for adults and kids a like.

anyone can stand near science world and come with the best of the best picture - this picture was taken by Iphone panorama

A 5 star kids interactive temple of love and learning! I have been to the new York science museum and this by far exceeds it and anything else! Great for babies, toddlers, children and teens! A must see if you are visiting Vancouver and have kids!

Compared to the Ontario Science Center this place was fantastic!! Clean, roomy, and all exhibitions had their parts intact. The Pixar exhibit was also a lot of fun!!

It's very cool, but there were too many children hahaha ... Too many

It is a wonderful place for everyone to go. From toddlers to elders, everyone can have an awesome experience

Great fun, but annoying kids everywhere ruining the interactive displays

Another amazing landmark of Vancouver
Beautiful and entertaining especially for first-timers

Wonderful staff

I went to Vancouver three months ago with my kids and went to Science World when it was closing. I thought my family membership was to expire the next day, so I wanted to talk to them about extending it for one day. They said it was not a problem, but when I showed them the membership card, it turned out that it was for the Vancouver Aquarium. Alice and Alicia told me that at the time there was a coupon that could help me save some money, which I found online later on.

Great place for kids of all ages to explore and 'feel' science.

It is interesting to watch a documentary on the globe and enjoy the scenery.

Great exhibitions. Cool programming. Nerds' playground.

Great place for young children. I used to go here often with my daughter when she was little. I no longer live close enough to go here but it is a great place. Though I would recommand purchasing yearly pass if you live near by as ticket is pretty expensive.

Went on an expected free day. Fun and good place to hang out on a rainy Vancouver day

Hoing there today on family day I hope my family isn't in it for the theatre I wanna go all around every where

My kids love learning the new stuff and playing in the tree and especially watching a movie in the Omni theater

Amazing place. We are members of Denver Museum of Nature and Science (DMNS) and so entry was free and we had the same privileges as the members (discounted tickets etc.). I did not have my membership card but was able to show an email that showed we were members. We love DMNS but the kids (10 and 13) said Science World is better because it is much more interactive. The first exhibit on the right after the reception is amazing. It provides very useful information about our ecological footprint and also has some interactive activities. It even has a board where one can provide suggestions about the topic at hand. When we were there, the topic was: 'What can humans do to reduce our ecological footprint'. Then in the main atrium they have a lot of interactive puzzles and exercises. They also have a stage show where someone showcases various science experiments and also talks about genesis of various scientific breakthroughs. There are movies that you can pay and there are some you can watch free in the auditorium. We were there for 5 hours but could definitely have spent whole day there. Will definitely visit it when we visit Vancouver again.

Such a wonderful place to go as a family. Or even for a date. Just all around a wonderful place.

I went to the adults only exhibits. Let me tell you, having drinks at the museum can be alot of fun!

Great spot. Elevators get pretty busy on weekends and makes it tough with wheelchairs and strollers

After dark was a good laugh, for a reasonable price

Very good for kids or families. lots of activities. crowded, though.

Great activities, especially for younger kids. Some of the main exhibits have been hit and miss, but generally great experience.
