Beautiful place/surroundings!! The observatory was great and unique, very informative with plenty to see, and my son was in awe walking around it. It is at the top of a hill where the cable cars are as well, so it makes for a fun day out.

Well worth the trip, especially for kids or those interested in astronomy. It was a lot more interesting than I expected. Very interactive.

Great place to visit, took my 10 year old son who really enjoyed the dome star show. The interactive exhibits are interesting as well as educational.

A good place to visit in the school holidays. I was impressed with the number of hands on exhibits as well as the little movie showings. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and we were lucky enough to be there on a day when there was a science show on, which was really interesting.
