Good interactive science museum which keeps children entertained with activities. There is a gift shop and toilets on site. There is no food outlets in the building although there is a picnic area within the building where you can eat your own packed lunch. There is no actual car park there, but there is a pay and display across the road.

Many a Welsh kid will remember Techniquest from their schools days. A Cardiff Bay Landmark. Well it’s recently had a revamp and refit. New modern entrance, New cafe, new exhibits and more. The kids enjoyed the day there. Plenty of things to learn and try out. Some old exhibits remain which is nice to see and a throwback to my youth. A good day for the kids young and old.

This place is very cool, interactive stations across two floors. We could have spent hours here. It was busy but we all got a chance to go on each station. The kids LOVED the hurricane simulator, all the kids were running around screaming! Some of the areas were out of order, but 90% were working. There is a lift for prams and wheelchairs. The gift shop was sweet and not overpriced. Many wooden and scientific items for sale which was nice to see. Can't wait to come back!

Great day out at Techniquest. It’s been a few years since we last visited and what a transformation it’s had with loads of extras for both the kids and adults. A good half a day but you have the option of wearing your wrist band, leave the venue and come back during the day.Also lovely helpful staff!Thank you

I remember visiting as a child, and could not wait to take my own children...we visited as a family of four, 2 adults and boys age 7 and 5 on a Tuesday in half term. We paid £2 per person extra to visit the planetarium too.Brilliant value day out. We stayed 5 hours. The boys were fascinated from the moment we stepped through the door.There were some exhibits that were closed for repair or refurbishment but still plenty to keep us busy.The staff were helpful and approachable. The planetarium was fun but I just couldn't hear the lady talking for large parts of it.There's a picnic area so that you can take your own food as we did but there's also a great looking coffee shop on site too.

We really enjoyed. There are many and varied things to explore/experience. A few not working but the rest is well-kept and very good value for kids' learning. We could do with a family discount but as price is a bit high but still well worth every penny whatsoever. Kids can learn different scientific phenomenon while actually playing with them. You can easily spend 2-3 hours if not more. The cafe is very nice. Parking is not a problem since public car park is just across the road.

All 3 kids loved the planetarium, they're 7 and 9. My husband was gutted we had to leave. The Ocean talk was awesome and really got my girl interested in science. Will say get there for 10am as the car park over the road was empty!

Loads of stuff to do for the whole family. I spent over three hours there with my three kids ages 7-12 and they loved it.A little pricey perhaps if you were only going for a short stay but for me it was totally worth it.

Great place to spend a couple of hours. There's plenty to do to keep everyone entertained. There's sometimes a small wait to do the different activities but that's expected and didn't bother us!
