Reviews

"My family and I are just back from Florida and we decided that the best Theme Park had to be Epcot because of Innoventions. We spent hours in each one and had great fun. My children were well entertained and enjoyed the experience immensly. We sent D-mail and postcards, we played games, we made paper, we learnt about plants and small creatures - we had so much fun that we had to drag ourselves away to go and watch the parade. Needless to say we never finished looking around Epcot bu t definately plan to return in the future. Most of the staff were excellent and couldnt have been more friendly and helpful while we were there. It was a great experience and I give it 9 out of 10 - there wasnt much that could be improved on unless you could install a restroom for the parents of the children who dont wish to leave the games and excitement."
