Cape Town Science Centre

I've been here before a lot so my expectations are aligned. Don't expect the nemo science museum. However I must say the place is always super clean, neat and the staff and students friendly and actively involved. The kids really enjoyed the camera obscura tour and had a great time all round. Price for 3 kids and 1 adult was around R300 no time limit. Well worth a visit especially when it is a bit quieter.

Our boys (4 and 8) love the science center. This was our first time hosting a party here, and everything went smoothly. Security was very friendly, and helped us park close to the party room

We had lots of fun, there’s a small eating section with a variety of options. It wasn’t over crowded throughout the day. The staff were friendly and the shows are fantastic for the children.

This experience was highly disappointing and the centre is in need of significant upgrades. There is no disability access, and wheelchairs and prams have to be carried up by security, which is not acceptable. The attractions themselves are outdated, with minimal staff available on the floor. Introducing guided tours through each section could greatly enhance the visitor experience and add educational value. The summer games were particularly underwhelming. Simple activities such as bouncing a ball into a cup were presented without any explanation of the scientific principles involved, such as gravity, which diminished their educational purpose. Lunch options are limited and could be improved by offering healthier choices. Additionally, there were no live science experiments on display, which was disappointing for a centre of this nature. Overall, the visit felt like a poor use of money.

It was fun for both our God Child and ourselves, and he had an absolute blast, he's 4 and it was a super interactive educational fun experience, we enjoyed the food and we all loved the fries. There were about 4 different shows, our favourite was the science show, and the light show. It was indeed an affordable and fun outing, which we spent about 3 hours with no gap for boredom.
