Thank you for taking the time to post a review about your visit to the Centre - we appreciate your feedback. During the week and quieter times we do not have a Guide available. For school groups and tours a science presenter is always available. We do, however, offer the use of a self-guided book to assist with your tour. I am a little confused that you indicated there is no entry fee. We do make a charge for admission to the Centre. Our receptionist would of provided you with an itinerary and explained the exhibits to you. There is no requirement for booking and we are open 7 days a week during school and public holidays. Our normal closing day is Monday.We hope you will pay us a further visit soon. With regards, The GDC Team

We visited on the 18th of October when the Storms hit. It was amazing as we were at the top of the tower as we could see the weather rolling in, and got down in time for the heaven's to open up. the team there were very experienced and helpful. We had lunch there which was a hot sit down meal, which we weren't expecting. We would have preferred something quick and easy as they also forgot one of our meals. But other than that, we all learnt something from our trip. and the 2 adults learnt what it was like to exercise those muscles the next day after climbing up and down the tower.

We visited in February with boys aged 12 and 14 and we all really enjoyed the time spent with the hand on exhibits. The real pleasure of the day, though was the talk by the centre manager who was so knowledgable and such an entertaining educator that my son has subsequently quoted him in school projects. We learned about the nature of space, black holes, straight lines and time travel in such a fun way that the time spent at the Gravity Centre was one of the highlights of our trip. Even the food was excellent and a reasonable price and the milk shakes were the best in Western Australia!!

We visited with our boys aged six and three. We could have spent much longer here, but had to get back to Perth. There is so much interactive and fun science to see. The highlight was climbing the 222 steps of the leaning tower of Gingin and dropping water bombs down the tubes!! Very helpful and friendly staff.

Went to visit discovery centre as we were going to the observatory in the evening. Found it to be very interesting . The staff member that did the tour guid was very informative and friendly . Explained things very well . Enjoyed all the exhibits . Went up the tower even though I'm terrified if heights . Approx about 220 steps to the top of the tower, if I can do it anyone can. You collect a coin from the counter to enter and a balloon you can put down the shoot to see how fast it hits the floor. .great place to go and visit . Thank you to the staff for a great afternoon :) recommended

The Museum is very interesting, many scientific exhibits for people of all ages, staff is very professional and courteous.Unfortunately it is a small venue, in two hours the action ends.Overall it is good.

Hi Rohan,Thank-you for taking the time to make a review of the centre. I am sorry to hear you had a disappointing visit. I note that you reviewed us on the 19th, when did you actually visit the centre?We have been under new management for a several months and our new exhibition manager has worked hard to improve the Discovery Gallery. As far as I am aware we currently only have 1 exhibit out of order due to the back order of a required part.We have a guide available permanently and we have had a very successful school holiday period which only finished today, so they may have been which other groups. In that case just ask the receptionist to call them on the radio and they will be come and help as soon as they are free.There is now also a free QR Code based self guided audio tour in place (and expanding weekly) for some of our exhibits - did you take the opportunity to try this?We are currently in the process of training our newer members of staff and they will be up to speed very quickly.If you live locally we have a free event organised for the 7th of August at 6.30pm with some eminent guest speakers and we will introduce you to all the exciting new plans we have for the future of the centre, just log on to our website www.gravitycentre.com.au for tickets.Come back and see the improvements, I think you'll be a little more impressed.Warm regardsGDC Management

What you find in WA bush is amazing. Who would have thought, a science Gravity centre. Is well worth going. I would call before you go to make sure that there is not a party load of school children there, parents were driving us made with their huge iPads in your face while they took photo's of all the hundreds of children. Café was fantastic! Best Perth burger I've ever had called "Gravity Burger", award winning. I would travel the hour just for the burger!

look if you are driving out north via Gingin or the Sunset coast Thw gravity discovery centre is worth a visit if you like art with the dome hosting some art displays be warn thou the higher you go up in the dome the smellier and warmer it is.no aircond. the science part of the centre are exbits from 30 years ago or more and it might amaze the primary school kids but waste of time for others. the video of how fireworks works was ok it was a Perth high school or uni student project filmed in south perth foreshore so a low budget film about how fireworks work he use sparklers as a chrap example and how they work under water . the only things that made my visit worth it is the rain water bubbler nice water to taste and the leaning platform with a view of the area or kilometres i think i could make out perth from the distance it could be a a tall structure. the balloon drop was ok but the walk up is forever and the walk down will turn your legs to jelly. once at the top of the platform take few snaps theres

Driving up Indian Ocean Drive we saw a sign to the Gravity Centre. Thinking it would be an interesting stop for a cuppa & break from the long drive. With no indication of distance on the sign we drove ,and drove and drove. guessing about 30km inland . only to find on the enterance gate a Big sign saying No Dogs. Since we are travelling interstate with our small dog we were rather peeved at the lack of notification of distance or no dog rules to the original sign which enticed us to go on this wild goose chase. We have visited The Parkes Observatory in NSW & was welcomed to have light refreshments at picnic tables outside with the dog & was able to observe the outdoor attractions as well. And my husband and l took turns at seeing the inside attractions which is out custom when visiting dog restricted areas.
