Not worth the price
by Mike on 20/12/2024Trafford Centre, Overflow Car Park 7 - ManchesterRating: 3 out of 5Although the experience was well put together, there wasn't nearly enough to justify the price. We only paid half price in the Black Friday event, and even at that price point id say it was expensive. The event consisted of about five areas, which you move through to after exploring the few things in each. The kids seemed to enjoy it, and the dinosaurs were well done, but if you've ever visited Universal Studios, you'll already be well versed in animatronic dinosaurs so nothing is new here really. The raptor section was disappointing as the fence blocked a lot of the view and for little ones, it was too high for them to see. The exhibition should take a page out of the way Universal gives you a raptor experience, as this would have made the whole event. I thought each section had minimal interaction with a few fun things to do for the kids, but overall, it was just ok. The final section with the T Rex and Carnotaurus was by far the best section and was very well done. To summarise, too short, well done in areas, not good value for money, could be improved upon. If you haven't been to any of the Universal parks and love Jurassic Park/World then I'd say it was a decent experience, just way overpriced
