★★★★★Don TaylorI spent part of the day at The Tech Interactive and had an engaging and inspiring experience. The museum offers a wide variety of hands-on exhibits focused on science, technology, innovation, and creativity, making it enjoyable for both kids and adults. One of the things I appreciated most was how interactive everything felt. Instead of simply looking at displays, visitors are encouraged to participate, experiment, and learn through experience. The exhibits were well-designed, educational, and easy to explore at your own pace. The facility was clean, modern, and well-organized. Staff members were helpful and enthusiastic, and there was always something interesting to discover in every section of the museum. Time passed quickly because there was so much to see and try. Overall, The Tech Interactive is a fantastic destination for anyone interested in science and technology. It's a fun and educational attraction that makes learning feel exciting and accessible.
★★★★★Cray OlaThe IoT's are off the hook. The implication is an overall statement, however. Now, this suggests to put them back up, so they are turnt off.. (...) This begs the question, "How high are you?", to be followed with, "The Police?". Well, to make the statement clear; I'm not powerful enough to sustain these atmospheric questions to fly up there and find out...DH
★★Dani BernRude staff, was trying to have fun but then since they didnt add a barrier to let me know it was closed they screamed at me to leave, like there was no barrier helloo????? Very rude staff and doesnt even say "can you please get out of here this is closed" and i would've been like ok but no they just said get out of here. And to top it off they didnt even fix some stuff. But there is many exhibits and some are interactive which brings it to 2 stars. But please be nice next time to get a good review. My first time too
★★★★Nancy C.The Tech Interactive, San Jose, California I've been here in high school during a field trip. Back then, it was called "The Tech Museum of Innovation." This place is great for Elementary students and above. The Ai was cool and the arcade was fun. Alot of learning about the environment. The Body Worlds exhibit are from Institute for Plastination. They preserved real humans here. It really isn't for the fainted heart. The bodies used are for science-based. Either way, it's crazy to see. All the staff's there are super friendly and helpful. I would go back just for that.
★★★★Vivek StalinThe tech museum is a great interactive museum that I have seen rare. The main highlights here are the human anatomy where digestive system etc are very clearly samples. We also have a Mars and Nasa showcase of rovers which is great. Mainly a best place for kids to know the tech behind every small things.
