Pro tips to help you make a pick

If you plan to visit multiple attractions (e.g., Science Museum, Hemisfèric, Oceanogràfic), opt for a combo ticket. It’s more cost-effective than buying individual entry tickets.

Some tickets have timed entry. Plan your visit so you start with the most time-sensitive attraction (e.g., a film at Hemisfèric or Oceanogràfic's dolphin show) and visit others at your own pace.

Tickets to IMAX and planetarium shows include a scheduled time slot. Choose your preferred film and language when booking to avoid last-minute changes.

The Umbracle Garden is free to access and great for a break between ticketed visits — no ticket needed.

The morning admission to BIOPARC was better because of the heat. The only downside was that I would have preferred to choose the morning admission for the aquarium as well, but that wasn't possible. It would have been better.

The biopark is very shady, which is a plus when it gets really hot in August; you get to be up close to the animals, which is a really enjoyable experience. The Oceanographic Museum is beautiful; the most impressive parts are the tunnel under the shark tank and the multitude of jellyfish—it’s truly stunning. I recommend both.

Everything! It's all really cool and very, very beautiful. I had a great time with my family. The only thing is, I wish the dolphin show had been a little longer. I was left wanting more. But even so, it was wonderful.

I liked how easy it was to buy the tickets and then get in. There were quite a few people inside the park—since it’s August—but we were able to see and enjoy every section of the park, and we got to choose our seats for the Hemisferic.

Quick and easy process to book this experience. Quite the spectacle and lots to see and do. Hemispheric was a worthwhile indoor experience film. Surround sound cinema with 3D glasses and translation earphones made it special. Great fun for adults and kids alike. Great value for cost and Science Centre is free to use. Hours of fun.
