Josh MillerMarch 1, 2015Great selection for the kids. Remembered it as much more interesting and that was true when I was 11 years old. But definitely a great place for the young ones.
Zully HernandezJune 28, 2012One of the greatest places for families to have fun - there's always something for all age groups.Be sure to check showtimes so you can plan accordingly and make the most of your visit.
OliverOctober 22, 2016Educational, great value, huge space. Great place to learn hands on. Im from LA and their science center sucks compared to this one. Enjoyed even without kids. Or maybe enjoyed more because no kids.
Adam KushnerSeptember 3, 2018Great place for kids. A little pricey for adults with plenty to do for all. Check out the kids play areas immediately to the left of the check in area.- Shawna BeleckisJuly 11, 2018My son and I spent hours here! So many different fun exhibits to explore. They change them out too- so check online for what they are featuring!
- Shawna BeleckisFebruary 20, 2019Perfect day trip to learn and have fun. Some exhibits change frequently, but my favorite is Dino Digs. Great for the whole family to enjoy!
Alexander Kolozvary JrMay 12, 2015My 2yr old daughter had a blast. Lots of fun things to do. I wish they had better restaurants indoors. Was sad to see subway in there.
Kevin RoyFebruary 9, 2014Great place to take the kids and the adults will enjoy it too. Lots of activities for the kids to participate and engage in.
Ursula PalladinoOctober 5, 2017Four levels of fun, education and exploration. Great stuff for the hands on learners and little ones.
Maggie AndersonOctober 3, 2015So many things to see and inspire your mind! Great place for kids (and the curious child in all of us).
The Ritz-CarltonSeptember 19, 2012Once they ruled the Earth, now they rule Orlando Science Center. All your dinosaur favourites are here. A Jurassic highlight? The chance to unearth your own fossils in the DinoDig.
United Arts of Central FloridaDecember 18, 2011Orlando Science Center: Explore and Discover Together. Where else can you pet a gator, make lightning, visit new worlds and come face to face with a T Rex? Sun. 2/19: 10 am - 5 pm, TICKETS ARE LIMITED- Bahama BreezeJuly 26, 2013Perfect place for families with younger children to escape the heat - children will love the summer camps and the dinosaur exhibits.
ElizabethMay 25, 2015Perfect for my 1 and 3 year old. Lots of exhibits that encourage touching and playing- Peter CharlesJuly 31, 2015I love the science center! This is a really fun place that's great for people of all ages.
Brian HoltAugust 28, 2018Great Place! Kids loved all of the different activities. If we lived local we would have a membership.
- Carolyn ShrewsburyNovember 16, 2012The family membership is the best buy because it was only $20. More than what it cost the four if us to go in for one afternoon.
KevinJuly 1, 2016The new Kinetic Zone is a much needed new addition. Be prepared to spend lots of fun times here with your kids :-)
Beth GossipFebruary 8So much to do for kids, but weekends are very crowded and some kids have no manners and a complete disregard for others. I also found it way too pricey at $18 for a 2-year old
Darwin RaagasMay 18, 2014Not bad for a weekend visit. Pretty interesting that comes with a cheaper price. Highly recommended!- RossJanuary 4, 2016Garage parking is $5.00. All other uncovered parking across from the museum is free.
Susanne UhligAugust 7, 2014Extremely good museum. Experiments and amazing things to discover for young and old!
Wipe Out GermsFebruary 9, 2012There's a new meteorology room! The science center is a great place to learn and explore! Germs, you have no business being here!
Irela Maidolly RiveraFebruary 3, 2015Love this place! So do my kids. A place to learn and have fun, four floors of fun.
Starting September 28th, 2013.... Sesame Street is coming to The Orlando SCIENCE Center with a presentation dedicated to learning about the human body!
Check out the refurbished Digital Adventure Theater! Movies here are now projected in 4K AND 7.1 Dolby Surround Sound!
Plan to be there early to catch the exhibits, animal feedings, special talks and movies! Lots to do and great experience for the whole family.
Sara SrebnikJuly 22, 2013One of the best science museums we have ever been to!!! HIGHLY recommend coming here.- The new kids town is amazing! My six year old loves it!
get a membership - it SOOOO pays for itself - and keepan eye out for specials like the observatory being open in evenings! Read more- MGA Gymnastics and CheerNovember 10, 2012I think the museum was well worth it. I enjoyed every minute of it. I don't think you need a membership however.
Want to make the most out of your visit? Pick up a daily schedule of activities from the admissions desk on Level 2 when you pay for admission. Don't forget to request your film tickets too!
Ashlyn WilliamsOctober 27, 2015If you stay until the end of the day you can usually catch a second run mainstream movie before it hit DVD
HISTORYApril 27, 2010The building was originally named the Central Florida Museum & Planetarium & opened in 1960. The museum attracts nearly 400,000 visitors annually & demonstrates how science impacts everyday life.
Serj LJuly 9, 2015Boring if you go here alone. Most of the stuff here is for children. There are not a lit of interesting stuff for grownups. It's nice that you can watch movies here.
Get a Membership and come back again and again.
Melissa MichelFebruary 4, 2014I was chaperoning a field trip and felt that the staff was very disorganized for something that they must do on a regular basis. Lots of standing around and wasted time!- Alex HernandezFebruary 23, 2015Look for the snapping turtle on the bottom floor. He should have a sign dedicated to him.
Jason JimenezDecember 11, 2010For all the science and technology out there that a place like the OSC is supposed to showcase, you'd think they would get with the program and have debit/credit card forms of payment for the parkade.
Socrates PerezJanuary 17, 2011Become a member to get into the CineDome anytime you want and attend member-only events!
Katie, Lucia, Avrie, baby girl, Champ, Mom and Dave! Darling not with us 😞😞😞
FindDinosaurs.comMay 8, 2011An all-around good experience. They had pretty good dinosaur exhibits too!
