What travellers are saying
- Anonymous855Trabuco Canyon, California1,504 contributionsWe walked the entire island but got lost on one of the detours and then the main museum opened 1/2 hour later than what was posted on the website? Enjoyed the history lesson and the physical activity. Ferry was short and easy to use once we tried two machines to purchase a ticket. I think the walk here was a bit longer than I envisioned along the harbor.Written 7 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- lindakatarinaBrussels, Belgium198 contributionsApart from the museum being boiling hot inside, it was a lovely visit.
Nice exhibitions and easy to walk through at a pace.
The gift shop is also pretty nice.Written 8 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Really nice place, although I find it quite expensive, I must say.Written 3 March 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- becsmileDelph, UK81 contributionsThe actual Father Christmas was really believable, looked the part and the accent definitely added to the magic.
But the experience as a whole was disappointing- the waiting area was quite small and could have been a lot more magical - just a few little extras would have gone a long way - we arrived at 10.30 and still had a good 40min wait. There wasn’t even a door blocking the queue from the Santa clause room just a rope so the kids could see what was happening. I think if I was to do it again I’d try booking one of the Santa tours into the forest.Written 29 November 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There is an elevator as well as stairs to the top. Cute little cafe & restrooms on the bottom floor.
We hiked back through the beautiful park which borders a lake. Fun day! Highly recommend!!Written 23 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Partially, it is well told, through e.g. illustrative models that trace the centuries of construction. But interpretation could be much improved. The wider geopolitical context could be summarized in a succinct timeline somewhere. The text displays could be lifted from the 2-feet level and given proper light. Poor lighting in some passages is also a hazard.
There are lots of empty rooms that one can pass through quickly while briefly noting how they were once used. But there is also a section with an impressive collection of artifacts.Written 7 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The ice cave and vodka shots were great.Written 15 January 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- LiangHelsinki, Finland33 contributionsGreat center with several museums, such as game museum, postal museum, and several special exhibitions. Proper on-site restaurant. Grocery shops can be found nearby. Highly recommend the game museum where you can try many classic or new games. This center is a must-visit for anyone in Tampere.Written 27 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Célestine SLa Pesse, France62 contributionsSurprising, totally unexpected wall ans ceiling paintings that even young children can appreciate. Nice light inside,
Toilets in the basement are also a good surprise!Written 23 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

However from the rental shop to the lift passes, the uplift, the pistes and the great cafes it was brilliant. Excellent quaility skis and boots. The t bar tows, which I remembered from at home could take the legs from under you, were smooth and easy. Sadly it was too windy for the gondola so can’t comment. Even better no massive queues and no jostling for places! Beautifully groomed pistes and excellent cafes for a much needed hot chocolate and a “Munkii”. (Wrong spelling but a delicious enormous doughring). Highly recommend, great for families. We were with a Finnish family who were introducing their tinies to downhill skiing and it was perfect.Written 10 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pratheesh JaisonDubai, United Arab Emirates282 contributionsIt was an amazing experience in Lapland that one not to be missed. We were trained with video tutorials and given special shoes, helmets, suits, gloves and many other accessories. The cart car has 13 H/P engine and can speed up to 60km/h. It has a speed and safety monitor and the side of the tracks are made of 2 feet tall tick snow wall. So safety is promised.
The race was between the four of us. The sensors fitted on both sides of the track mark the laps covered and time taken accurately. After 3 or 4 rounds, we got the hang of it. . It was getting dark soon, so first we posed for some photos then move to the race. The first lap was very difficult. But we learned the technique very fast. Drifting through the ice is very tricky and lots of fun. Also a few times we crashed each other and hit on the snow wall.

- frequentflyersuffolkSudbury, UK297 contributionsEasy to reach forest park from Espoo. Lovely walking trails, plenty to see and do. Beautiful lake with grills which we took advantage of. Beautifully maintained and very clean. Lots of room so we didn't felt as it was crowded. Would be amazing with the snow in the winter season.Written 19 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Joanna L51 contributionsMe? A bit less since the kids refused to leave, they thought it was that nice, so I had to stay there for 2 hours longer than planned. But since playgrounds ARE for kids mainly, I guess that is actually a good sign?Written 28 March 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ville JKokkola, Finland49 contributionsLot's of sights to see from the beach. I saw a guy fishing there when walking by. There's also a place to throw away cremation ashes.Written 2 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
