Very nice, long route, the exhibition is arranged according to the animals existing in several areas of the world as are the living ones.

Super fun experience, well organized with the shuttle bus. Atmospheric indoor square. Please indicate exit cards more clearly.

Very impressive, but also begs the question: what on earth are we doing in the world…

Absolutely brilliant, can’t wait to go back. Attention to detail was outstanding.

Very nicely done with walkie-talkie, in one word, QUIET
