A great day out. Parking was easy (expensive) No line for ticket at 9.45 am. All events easy to get in when we wanted. Lunch at Moss Room was excellent.

Slightly disappointed, the rainforest area was closed for maintenance, and the planetarium showed only one program for the whole day about earthquakes, I was expecting a program based on astronomy. Still worth a visit though.

Love the Academy of Sciences, loved the discount, and appreciated the opportunity to spend some quality time with my fabulous little boy who, at 9yrs old, was fascinated by the pendulum and many of the Science exhibits. Thanks for making it possible!

Seven tickets waiting for us at the gate. No wait on line. Each saved $5. Great day!

We had such a great time! Our 2 daughters (ages 2 and 4) loved everything -- the aquarium, the rain forest, the African exhibit, the penguins, the living roof, and the albino alligator! The cafe looked and smelled yummy, but we had brought our own food and ate outside on the patio. It was awesome! The place wasn't too crowded - even on a Saturday. We went from opening at 9:30am until about 2pm. My kids were too young for the planetarium, but we'll definitely be back when they're old enough. Booking the tickets through Viator was super simple. We went to the guest services booth, got our tickets, and went straight to the Member line. Both girls even got cute Member stickers to wear all day. We're super satisfied!! Thanks!

Very interesting place. Was able to see quite a few of the exhibits. Enjoyed the aquarium and planetarium the most.

Without a printer, my daughter and I had to trouble the Will Call operator to print out our tickets for us and he wasn't aware of the process. However, I called the Academy in advance and the lady who picked up the call said I just needed the booking number. Please confer with the Academy regarding travelers without printers who will only have mobile tickets.

Viator worked great for our trip to the Cal Academy of Sciences. I was skeptical but it worked great. Traded my printed voucher for real tickets and went right in through the members door. And the museum is as good as it sounds. Plan about 3 hours to see it all, including planetarium. The aqaurium is very well done but not as spectacular as Monterey.
