Orlando: WonderWorks All-Access Entry Ticket

About This Experience

WonderWorks is the upside-down building on International Drive at Pointe Orlando, packed with more than 100 hands-on science exhibits. Kids stand in hurricane-force winds, feel a simulated 5.3 earthquake, lie on a bed of nails, make bubbles big enough to wrap around them, and try to land a space shuttle. This All-Access ticket also covers the basement extras: a 4D motion theater, a glow-in-the-dark ropes course and laser tag in a 10,000-square-foot arena.

Admission is good all day, and WonderWorks suggests allowing at least three to four hours. It is open every day from 9 AM to midnight, which makes it an easy evening plan or a fallback when rain shuts the outdoor parks. An All-Access Plus option adds an arcade game card and a case book.

Height rules matter here: the Earthquake exhibit needs 36 inches, the 4D theater 40 inches, and the ropes course 42 inches with an adult or 48 inches alone, with closed shoes and long pants required. It gets loud and busy, and laser tag is played in a dark, blacklit maze, so noise-sensitive kids may need breaks. Parking in the Pointe Orlando garage is extra.

It suits school-age kids who like to push buttons and test themselves. Toddlers will enjoy parts of it but can't do much of the physical stuff, and teens will mostly be there for laser tag and the ropes course.
