The Arecibo Observatory Reviews

What a great place to go visit it was worth the drive

It's a cool place to see but the "tour" we paid $20 per person for was lacking in a lot of information.

The orientations they offer are very valuable. I have brought people from North and South America and are surprised by the knowledge acquired. Its physical structure is surprising, but the information acquired is very valuable.

A place never to forget it is wonderful spectacular

Always make you feel like family, and what a nice family they are

Very interessing site for kids and adults. Food and drink available on side (basic but good - Pizza, Hotdogs etc..) Avoid taking the smaller roads leading from Route 10 when driving here !! Approach from the north on the larger roads.

Wonderful visit. Doesn't take very long but it's a marvel to see this feat of engineering.

One of the most interesting sites in Puerto Rico, and one of the largest radio telescopes in the world, located in an old crater. During the visit, you should ask the person who is there for the Wow! (The answer is amazing). In the 90s they made a documentary about an astronomer who worked here and who established Contac. He looked a lot like Jodie Foster. Home of the Seti project, which consists of being told to broadcast a series of slings over time, to speak with the above-mentioned pharaoh. Apparently they forgot to ask him something related to bassinet and ramses and I don't know what else. And as they are a bit intrigued, they try to contact the ancient Egypt of the pharaohs. Highly recommended.

One of the world's top spots to visit before you die

Although the road is not straight, following the information on Google Maps is easy to get to. The entrance is not accessible for disabled people but I am sure that if they communicate it to the staff they will make a reasonable accommodation. The visitor center is exciting for children and adults. The exhibits are interactive and entertaining. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and patient with children. Nothing to envy any facility in the US (the Stennis Center in MS could learn a lot from this place!). It was a privilege to be able to take my son and know that this is accessible to our Puerto Rican children.

Excellent place for family or not only for the radio telescope, sink for the view of the museum and very attentive staff. End added the night of seeing the moon excellent night one of the best I've had with my children.

Super cool. Kinda seems out of this world (pun intended). But really it's an awesome place, cool museum. Would definitely recommend seeing the movie inside.

One of my favorite places in the world. Amazing scientists, amazing tour guides, amazing visitor center. This place has so much history and science discoveries.
