We really enjoyed our day here at the museum. The staff is exceptionally nice and helpful. One of our favorite things was the feeding and petting of sting rays (they don’t sting!). There is a cool globe shaped screen called “Science on a Sphere” that illustrates climate, airliner flights, hurricanes, etc, that is intriguing. We watched 3 short 3D movies that were interesting. There is so much for kids and teenagers. They do not have a cafe, but do have a nice gift shop

Place is clean staff is walking around cleaning stations for the kids (and adults) that want to interact with the learning material. Masks are encouraged, but not mandatory.

This place was alright. Not as cool as I had hoped. The aquarium area was neat with the fish. The space zone was pretty big , but it was the same thing- there were like 20 of the space game. The upstairs had a pretty neat giant globe and they explain all the planets which was cool. But i did,honestly think thst the price of admission was too high for what you got. My 9 year old was satisfied with the visit, so if you have kids that age it is geared alot towards that age

I had an incredible time visiting IMAG. I spent the day with family here and cant wait to go back. Great interactive displays and informative guides available to answer all of your questions. Make time in your vacation for this one. #lovefl #visitflorida #IMAG #nicoonthescene Thanks Matt

Awesome place to visit with kids. The 3D shows are great along with the live animal talk. The stingray exhibition was fantastic as well. Well worth the Money. You can easily spend a few hours here! Make sure you bring quarters to feed the turtles and the koi fish in the back pond!

Very cool place but very disappointing that half the exhibit is closed due to the Coronavirus. Still paid full price. Otherwise Id gave it 5 stars.

Our kids (the oldest is 8) enjoyed the hands-on room. The touch tank was also a favorite, but is small compared to others we have experienced. The entire place needs a refresh (paint, signage, and several exhibits). The virtual reality exhibit is only open a few times a day. There were exhibits that had no real explanation at all. Everyone there was polite and helpful as needed. Our in-laws got in for free with a reciprocal membership from another museum. We drove up from Marco Island; I can’t honestly say that it was worth the trip.

Theyre doing a great job in cleaning and disinfecting between customers and lots of activities for the kids!

Great educational place for a indoors activity for the family $15 adults $10.00 childrenThe children loved it ages 4,5 we spent three hours and it was perfect

Great place to visit. It is a bit expensive but worth it. The kids not only had fun but learned a lot as well. They have interactive science shows, a small aquarium, and a large selection of video game type things like virtual reality and space simulators.

Take the kids. Very family feeling with the staff. Nice team they have

Great place to take kids in Ft. Myers. Even better place to have a birthday. They take care of everything for the kids. Just bring the cake and party favors. You get some choices of theme. Dont miss IMAG. #reviewsbyelijah

Had ages 3-13 year olds and they had fun. Its a fair price for the fun we had.

They have really outdid themselves with revamping the place. new exhibits and outdoor area with lots to do. Keeping the place sanitized.

This place had so much for my children to do it was incredible! My kids are almost 8 and 10 and I thought they would be bored... Boy was I ever wrong!! We for there around 2pm and I was almost dragging them out around 430 because I was hungry! They had a lot to do there and the energy spot seemed to be the favorite of all of us. They even do military discounts and they let our party of five in free because of a special promotion they had for military!

Great time for all ages! I thought Id be in the baby/toddler area most of the day but we didnt even go in there. Our 2 year old could do everything and our 14 year old had just as much fun!

Really fun place to come especially for the kids. The touch tanks are pretty cool, you can pet sting rays ect. The staff was exceptional and knowledgeable and all around nice. We had a great time here and I would suggest to anyone that has not been here already to come check them out, definitely worth it!

Lots of fun. many opportunities for learning. needs a little repairs in some of the hands on areas

Last year, on vacation, our visit broke up the tourist feel. Kids & teens found some hands on experiences to enhance things already learned. The woman in the Entry helped me find the Perfect gift to send to another grandchild who has enjoyed the gift very much. Good Experience!

My nieces had a fabulous time and loved the touch tanks and interactive exhibits. I was thoroughly impressed with the staff response when I couldnt find my wallet and phone. Everyone was helping me to look for it and searching the entire facility. Thank you so much again to everyone who helped look and to the gentleman that did find it. I was panicked and you all were very kind.

Great place for kids and adults. Hands on learning and cool critters.

Good place to take young kids, they have a indoor pool that has stingrays and you can touch them, they have a theater, and much more

The exhibits were fun and interactive!!! The girls really enjoyed their animal show and flying a spaceship!!! Our only issue was how small the place was....there was one exhibit area under construction but still it didnt seem like there was a ton of stuff to do and see. I would still recommend this for families and kids visiting the Ft. Myers area to check it out!!!

Great place for the kids. They are rotating out exhibits regularly. Great place when the weather is cooperating since 80% is indoors.

The front desk is so nice there is so many exhibits so many different things to do theres upstairs downstairs and outside 5. out of 5 stars highly recommended

Really cute and informative,Emily gave us such fun tour of reptiles, very knowledgeable!

Great place to go if you want to learn, adult or child.

While on vacation, we drove up from Naples to visit IMAG just because we had seen it on our museum reciprocity list. We are glad we came! Its a very neat place with plenty to do including a 3D theater, animal exhibits, virtual reality experience and physics experiments. The front desk staff and the educational staff were all terrific!

This place is really for children under the age of 10. Half the attractions were either inoperative or being updated/created. The place did have a couple daycare/camp groups which made viewing some of the attractions a little difficult at times due to the large crowd, but they do move on quickly enough. When the stuff did work, it was an ok experience. My 4 year old loved it.

All updated activities and computer driven displays. It doesnt have any of the old hands on things the old center had.

Its a well designed childrens museum. If you are traveling on the ASTC reciprocity, it is worth noting it is a small aquarium (one room) and otherwise has a room dedicated to Floridas history otherwise, the bulk of the museum has a strong focus on children. Either way, as adults, we enjoyed our time with our children at the museum. I played with the boats in the locks exhibit, I played with balls in the physics space. We would go back:)

It was a good time for my kids. The exhibits were ok. I recently heard they are private now so they should get more donations and more money for the center which should help them along. I look forward to going back when I get back down to Ft Myers.

This history and science museum is very informative and a great place to visit if you are in the Ft Myers area. It provides you and your family with great adventures like the manatees, a koi pond, lots of turtles, fishes and snakes. Very enjoyable for the whole family.

Need to update some things really nothing for the kids to do at the water activities they need to replace stuff , with the dino dig also nothing to do , video games need way updated .. loved looking at the live animals the most shows not very interesting

It was really fun doing online learning there.

Spectacular venue with displays, interactive exhibits, live animal shows and more! Our 8 yr old was in heaven. Staff was incredibly friendly, happy and helpful. We will absolutely return on our next visit to the region.

Great experience and fun for the whole family!

Checked this place out with the kids on free museum day. They loved it, more than likely going to pay 100 for the family membership. It has a reciprical program where we can get in free to other participating museums and science center around the US. The was enough to do to keep the kids entertained for about 3 hours without checking out the 3d movies. You can take a picnic lunch or get something there. The whole place is very hands on. My youngest loved all the hands on ball experiments that moved them from one area to the next. My oldest loved the virtual reality glasses. There is even a room for tiny tots. I can see frequenting this place on the wknds or when they have no school to keep the busy and learning at the same time.

Small but very good for familys fun.

Really nice place. My grandson loved it. I will go back. They are adding a new attraction too.

Worth a trip. Best ages 6-12yrs would be my guess. We could spend 3-5hrs here easily. Its physically small compared to some other science centers but packs a lot of activities into every corner. There was enough variety to hold everyones attentions (science, history, hands on etc). Kids are already asking to go back.

Really fun to go with friends or kids

Unless you are on a field trip or really, really like space, don’t expect much here. The “touch tank” had exactly one animal in it, a ray, and if you attempt to put your hand in the water you will be reprimanded by the touch tank Nazi lady (unless, of course, you are on one of the never-ending field trips). Not much here that is hands-on unless you love space science and with a school. I’m happy this is here for the kids on school trips, but my family will not be returning.

Went to deliver birthday cakes and upon leaving the staff were very sweet. Definitely will bring my children back to explore. Thank you guys.Delivery by: Your Hearts Dezires Sweet Treats. Check us out on Google or Yelp.

Had a great time here with the family. Lots of interactive exhibits. The kids favorites where the touch tank and 3D dinosaur movie.

Nice place for a day trip, look at getting a season pass for families if you are going to be traveling around this coming summer. They have many other sites that use the same pass. :-)

Fun and educational. Great for the whole family. I highly recommend a visit.

We had a fun time visiting. Good family time.

Great time with the kiddos!

We had a great time. It is a little dated, could use 1 or 2 extra staff, but overall we were happy. Lots to do for kids. The presentation on turtles, snakes and bearded dragons was amazing and the instructor was outstanding (Christian). The aquarium lacked details of all of the fish and eels, but it was nice. They toss a bunch of history in the mix too and offer a ton of hands on activities for everyone. We spent about 90 minutes to 2 hours. Lots of fun. Worth checking out.

This place offers merit badges for the boy scouts. The staff here puts in a lot of work to make sure that our boys are successful.

Fun experience. Good shows. Small so not sure how many times exhibits are changed

Way too expensive for what you get. They should probably divide science and history into two different centers. The history stuff is fine for adults but it is static and doesnt hold the interest of younger children. The gift shop is fairly pricy and filled with useless tokens (I was hoping for actual science toys for my grandson). Anyway, it could be a great place if it were better run.

Such a cool place for kids and adults! The Astronaut exhibit had my kid entertained for a good 2 hours.

As an adult born and raised in Florida I was fairly bored but my 8 year old grandson had the greatest time. He got to experience virtual reality for the 1st time. He learned some about old Fort Myers. He spent most of the time in a space flight simulator he really liked that. You could run different scenarios fly to different planets land on the planets drive a rover across the planets. I mag also has salt water aquariums They were quite nice. They have a stingray touch pond. There is a simulation of the caloosahatchee river with the lock system he had fun changing the direction Of the flow of the water through the locks

Its a great place to take kids its very entertaining. They have stingrays that you can pet in a tank. They give shows. Outside there is a pond with fish and turtles you can feed by purchasing fish knibbles for a quarter. They offer a great variety of cool things in the gift store. And they have a virtual reality game thats fun too.

Amazing. Love places I can learn things. This place I will visit again soon.

A nice hands on science museum for the kiddos. Its really nice this is in the area. If you have little ones and live in the area you may want to consider a membership so you can go back again and again. They have some nice picnic spots on the grounds. So bring your lunch and enjoy the scenery.

Great place to take kids. I love that its open for them to roam a bit. Very hands on and you dont have to stay right on top of them. We have a membership and my kids never get board.

We had a very nice experience today.We spent 5 hours there and it was very educational and rewarding. Children 14 9 7 years of age all enjoyed their experience. The center was clean and the staff very knowledgable and very pleasant. We took a picnic lunch and sat outside.Good day was had by one and all.

Grandchildren had a wonderful day exploring all areas of the center. Great place for all ages. My 10 year old grandson had just as much fun has the 2 year old. Great day spent indoors out of the heat. We will return again.

Awesome, hands-on experience! Wish we had more time!!

My kids loved going here. They dont have much for children under the age of 3 though.

Half of the exhibits weren’t working. The animal exhibits were nice. Waste of money.

One of the best places for people of all ages. People even brought toddlers.

Would be 5 stars if it didnt cost 50$ for a family of 4 to go see everything. Price is a little high, but the kids had a blast! Touch tank right up front (extra fee to feed the stingrays), lots of fun exhibits, and 3D movies are included in the price. Saw a live science show that had a lot of cool pyrotechnics with explanations about the science behind them too.

Attended a field trip here today. Had a great time. Lots of cool stuff to do and check out.

Thats a good place to go with your kids Im grown up just to go and visit its nice

Kids had a fun time. They liked the hands on activities.

So fun Im a Boy Scout so it was so fun to go to get my electricity merit badge the lady shows you how to do a lot and is very nice

Opportunities to touch and feed stingrays, experience virtual reality, construct and experiment with energy forces, and more keep our elementary and middle school aged kids entertained. Not much has changed in the past few years, but the benefit of annual membership for us is the reciprocity at other ASTC museums.

Great place for kids and adults alike. We enjoyed it a lot.

Something Great for kids on the weekend.

Staff was very attentive and accommodating,Very friendly and very informative. Overall experience was fantastic.Worth the day

It was very cool I fed the stingrays they reminded me of my dog because one of them followed me around the tank after I fed her

Spent a good 2hrs here with our 4yr old. Prices were reasonable for admission and there was plenty to go. There was a small dino dig area, good sized hands on play area, outdoor water are w turtles and fish. There is a theater outside that does shows as well that are included in the price. Overall very nice kids museum with a friendly staff.

Great place for kids to have fun but also learn at the same time. They have presentations and cute shows that they put on for the kids. The one my kids watched was about reptiles. The aquarium was fun and I love how interactive everything is. My kids are all young but still had a great time and learned new things.

Nice place to visit.

Much of the equipment is old or run down. I was surprised because of the price of entrance. Two of the three virtual tour stations didn’t work, which seemed a common issue as the tour guide reacted. I have visited other kids science centers in the country and this one did not impress me. I would have preferred spending that money elsewhere with my family if I would have known. I don’t often give reviews, but this I felt people should know before they invest their time and money if they plan to visit.

The place is very small. Most of the displays were for children. There was a lack of staff running the movies. I did enjoy seeing the animal exhibits.

Great fun and hands on education for all ages, especially the little ones. But adults should not shy away. You can easily pass 4-5 hours here in the blink of an eye. There are vending for sandwiches and snacks and both indoor and outdoor seating. The more you engage with the exhibits the more you will enjoy the experience. Plenty of parking and easy to find, just a short distance from other downtown attractions, boat tours, parks, theaters, estaurants and shops.

We really enjoyed the exhibits

Good for kids and if you want to stay for couple of hours. There is not much to spend more than half a day so plan your visit accordingly.

Small place nice to check out if you live in the area.

My kid loved it. Lots to do. Live animals to interact with and a bunch of science experiments.

Great experience and lots of cool things to see and do.

This is not the biggest science center ever, but we loved it. We have 3 small kids, and we had a great time here.

Because they would tell u stuff about space and history

Fun for kids ages between about 4-10. There are unique virtual reality glasses and a topographical map that changes just by moving sand.

This place was amazing for all ages. I even learned some new things.The best part is its very affordable and they also have small push carts with storage for small children so if you forget to bring your stroller, youre in luck. They have a lunch room with venting machines and seating as well.

My grandchild loves the stingrays and the water activities outside and the VR was the best for her

This place was very cute but small. We are visiting Florida and made this a stop in our week long vacation. In my opinion it wasn’t worth the $46 admission; we walked around the whole place in an hour. The live animal show was very entertaining. The kids liked it.

Very cool place for as little as it is!!

Always a fun afternoon with the kids. Lots of hands on activities for inquiring minds. Plenty of room to run around and have fun with friends. Numerous fish tanks and terrariums with native Florida wildlife. Outdoor fish pond is fun to feed the fish. Worth making a trip. Great for hot summer days!

Spent 4 hrs there with the family and still could have done more. So much to do, build, and learn. If you like this kind of stuff I highly recommend getting the yearly pass.

The Science museum is great. We love visiting and seeing the awesome fish tank!! (Tanked) Thank you for hosting not one, but two fantastic Birthday parties!

I havent taken my son here in a few years. Hes taken an interest in science. This is a good place to take a 6 year old and introduce them to different concepts. We loved the animals. We got to see a science experiment. And the animal show was great.

Theres so much for the little ones to do there. My 2 1/2 y.o. spent hours exploring. Friendly staff, highly recommended.

Havent been here in years. A lot has changed. My younger kids loved the touch tank, feeding the big gold fish and turtles, and the sting rays. They like playing in the water. They also liked the science of motions stuff. My son liked it the most. Played for hours. We will come back and tell friends.

The whole family loves to go here. We got here at least once a month.
