Reviews Golden Gate Park
“Took a 6 yr old and an 8 yr old. This place never disappoints.”
“Annually we take our grandchildren to San Francisco for the holidays. The academy of sciences is a favorite of ours. This is the first time I preordered the tickets. It made entry so easy. The attendant scanned my tickets which were downloaded on my phone. We breezed in!”
