Probably the best science museum on the planet. I'm blown away at the quality of programming and everything every time I come to visit.

Underground tour was fun for the kids. They loved going down the mine shaft and experiencing the "dynamite".

Fun place to visit with kids. The playground both in and outdoors is terrific for young children. Lots of things to learn and see, interactive and interesting!

There’s fun for all ages! Got to see Body Worlds...AMAZING! Even had an excellent lunch at the cafeteria. We spent at least 5 hours at the museum. I highly encourage all to visit!!

A great place with many interesting and informative exhibits, as well as a real mine tour with a knowledgeable tour guide. One can easily spend 3-4 hours there. It is worth the drive from Toronto.

The Dynamic Duo package was an excellent deal allowing 3 days to visit both Science North and Dynamic Earth. We spent the whole day at Science North and could have stayed longer.

This is the third time that we have taken one of our grandchildren on a "Special Holiday" for their 8th birthday. We have never been disappointed and neither have the kids.

Dynamic Earth is a magic and exciting place for adults, but for children a wonderland. The cafe is great and the gift shop is unique and adds to the wonder of the place. Wear shoes for the mine!

Staff had amazing knowledge on their particular branches of science. The building is laid out accessibly and nicely, and the exhibits were very hands on, fun and in depth. We will return.

Such a fun place to visit for anyone who loves science or just wants to spend a day somewhere. There are areas that are great for children and also places to visit for adults.
