Alastair MacdonaldApril 11th, 2021
Brilliant for adults and kids alike. Dynamic Earth is an interactive journey through time focusing on how the earth formed and has changed over the past few billion years. It manages that monumental task in a way that's informative and enjoyable for all ages. It's relatively expensive, but it's not a normal 'museum' experience. You get taken on a journey through time via a series of shows and screenings, plus some interactive spaces. There are regular shows in the 360 degree ShowDome, which are excellent. You can easily spend 3-4 hours here (or do it more quickly if you want), and I was surprised to come away thinking that it was good value, given the cost. The cafe is very good, with decent food at a decent price. The gift shop is overpriced but on a par with others. Excellent place to take children, especially those over 7 years old. Highly recommended.

I went to Dynamic Earth as part of a conference and the staff and location were magnificent. If you ever have the opportunity to host an event at this location I cannot recommend it highly enough. The displays at Dynamic Earth are primarily aimed at children between 7-13 and they are full of information and interactivity. The venue also sits next to the beautiful Holyrood Park, Arthur's Seat and the Scottish Parliament.

Visited Dynamic Earth this week with my 2 sons (7 and 9 years old). We all loved it, I was really impressed! The 4D cinema and dome theatre were brilliant. We stayed for about 4 hours and had lunch. We brought a packed lunch (plenty tables to sit and eat) but the cafe also seemed to be very reasonably priced and did packs for the kids. The staff are great, one of the guides took the time to talk to my sons for ages about bones and fossil poo! They were fasinated :) We will def visit again.

The main exhibit was an interactive experience which all the family will enjoy. Lots of knowledgeable members of staff and the show dome is not to be missed. Amazing for a day out.
GOOGLE REVIEWDennice McKinnonApril 11th, 2021
This place was absolutely fantastic! Even better than we hoped for. So engaging, great value for money and something to interest all of the children (we took 16,14,11,5,3 year olds and newborn) great few hours! Highly recommend.
