Futurescope - anyone been recently?

[MattR]

Hi again, we're thinking that Disneyland Paris is not for us and are reverting to look at Futurescope. Has anyone been recently - has it been updated? There are several comments from 2014 saying how dated it looks.

How long would you take to see the sites? We spent 2 days at Puy Du Fou and 2 days at Legoland Billund. Are 2 days too much or not enough?

It is a shame that it is the wrong side of the country. We're not really into theme parks ... just looking at diversions to keep the sprogs entertained and give a bit of focus for our meanderings.

The Google street view shows a 3.5 metre height limit on the toll booth, but a review claims there isn't one, anyone know?

Have to agree with mitzimad, Europark is excellent. The on-site camping site is also brilliant.

Sorry, I don't. We got into the car park easily but that was 4 yrs ago.

We had a good time. It was worth getting there mid to late afternoon to get the cheaper entry tickets and then returning the following day for an easier whole day.

We'll have a look when we go east next time. We normally go west though.

Its on my way back so I might just call in and have a look.

If you're not with kids, I'd get a ticket for 5pm onwards on the weekend to see the evening show as well as most of the exhibits.

It is fun but a bit dated. There are activities for all ages.

We went many years ago in the early 1990's so probably well out of date but it was typically French in that it has a very educational theme and I remember quite a number of film shows and it was the first time I had ever experienced a moving cinema chair with smells, water, smoke etc. Son & daughter enjoyed it and the eldest would have been very early teens. We just spent a day which was enough for us all at the time. No idea if its any bigger or whether some of the attractions have just changed. Some are still the same having just had a look at the website!
