Londoners loved it!
They have travelled through millions of years… without leaving London.
The International Space Station VR is absolutely superb. Thoroughly recommended for any age. Lovely staff, too. Don't need to be a space enthusiast.
Decided to visit this immersive experience to see the international space station, was given a talk about how to use the VR headset by the assistant. Then lead through into a room where I was to walk around for around 30-40 minutes as I walked through the space station and listened to stories from the astronauts. This experience was rather expensive £35, compared to the 5 other immersive experiences that I've attended and they were cheaper for longer (sometimes I've stayed 2/3 hours in some cases). Overall it was good, but other shows (titanic, cleopatra, Tutankhamen, to mention a few were better).
If you don't know what to do, it's super hilfsbereit. Top, würd ich immer wieder machen
A truly brilliant experience. Worth going to. You feel you are in the ISS and can see space. So real it is frightening when you are outside the ISS. Very informative and fun.
This is a must if you're in Camden. The titanic experience was absolutely amazing and the staff are great... 5 big stars
Brilliant VR session wish it was a bit longer, all over in 40 minutes. Could there have been a small exhibition of space travel with it??
Fantastic experience... Loved the ISS experience with my 8 year old budding astronaut. Can't wait to try out the titanic soon
Went on the Titanic immersive tour. Wow. Wasn't expecting it to be so good. So well done. The time went very quickly. It felt so real I thought people were going to bump into me - instead they walked right through me 😂. Loved every minute.
This experience although short in time duration was of very high quality and well worth the visit.
This was a great experience. We were really excited for the space station. Really realistic experience made me feel like I was actually in space. We were told that gonna be getting way more better headsets really excited for them. Really must recommend

Your questions about our experiences
What is Space Explorers: The ISS Experience?
Space Explorers: The ISS Experience takes you aboard the International Space Station in virtual reality. Built from real footage shot in orbit and actual NASA missions, it places you at the heart of the station, in the daily life of the crew, with that perspective on Earth that only astronauts know. A scientific journey into space experienced from the inside—much closer to a documentary than a video game.
How long does the experiment last?
Allow approximately 35 minutes for the virtual reality experience. Upon arrival, please allow a few extra minutes for the welcome, briefing, and headset fitting: a complete visit therefore takes around 45 minutes in total.
Where does the experiment take place and how do I get there?
We welcome you to Eclipso Bordeaux, 19/21 rue Saint-Sernin, right in the city center. The center is a few minutes' walk from the Gambetta and Hôtel de Ville tram stops (line A), both easily accessible. Several public parking lots are located nearby, but the tram remains the easiest way to get here.
From what age can you participate?
The experience is open to children aged 8 and up. Younger children are welcome, provided they are accompanied by an adult throughout the visit. It's a wonderful family outing, both fun and truly enriching.
Are we standing and moving during the experiment?
Yes, this is an experience best enjoyed standing up. You move around freely, and you may be asked to crouch at certain times to fully appreciate the immersion. If you have reduced mobility or simply require more comfort, please let our team know upon arrival: we will adapt the experience so you can enjoy it with peace of mind.
Can the experience cause dizziness or nausea?
This can happen, but it's rare. A member of our team will accompany you throughout the immersive experience, and you can interrupt them or leave the room at any time if you don't feel comfortable. The vast majority of visitors enjoy the entire experience without any discomfort.
