Exciting Exploratorium
Review of: Exploratorium General Admission Ticket

This place is amazing! We are a family of 10, ages 5 to 72 and we all found it exciting and fun and informative. We had timed entry but you can get a stamp and go out for lunch and then return to make it a full day event. Not to be missed Science experience, even for non scientists:-)

Very Interesting and Hands On
Review of: Exploratorium General Admission Ticket

Hands on and exhibits are enticing. Science oriented. The 3 kids (10-8-6) found so much to interest them. I (over 65, female) enjoyed many of the exhibits. I thought it was very good for children and would interest them even if they went back several times -- there is so much to see and do.

Everyone had to wear masks and have proof of vaccination. As it was hands-on, there wasn't an opportunity for the staff to clean equipment after every use. But there were many available sanitizer dispensers.

Food was below-average museum food. Hamburgers, hot dogs and vegetarian burgers were freshly made. All the different breads used for the hot dog, hamburgers, vegetarian burgers and p-nut butter and jelly were extremely stale. I expected a much better vegetarian burger -- it was just a patty of black beans. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. There are so many great eating opportunities in San Francisco, why waste your money?
