Life Chronicles
In Lyon
A dizzying journey through the history of life
The people of Lyon loved it!
They traveled through millions of years… without leaving Lyon.
Amazing!! We loved it!! We had a fantastic time in the lost world. We were completely immersed. The only thing that could be improved is the image quality, which is reminiscent of an old cartoon. It's a shame... beautiful, film-like visuals would be much more impressive.
A wonderful experience. Our Earth 🌎 seen from the sky and discovering the ISS from the inside... it's fantastic!
My experience was incredible, I recommend you take the DISAPPEARED WORLD
I visited the Great Pyramid of Giza last year, which was really interesting. This year I decided to go to the International Space Station. It's very good but too short; you don't really get to explore, you just watch short videos.
This is my third time going, and the shows are always fantastic and immersive – truly top-notch! I highly recommend it.
A great immersion in the ISS, beautiful images and videos, it felt so real! A great time with my colleagues! I was expecting more teamwork, but the experience was much more solitary.
Fantastic experience, I highly recommend it. You'll have an incredible, immersive time.
The content is very exciting and truly beautiful, it's a shame the time is so short (35 minutes) and especially that the image quality, with glasses in the visor with progressive lenses like mine, isn't great: a bit blurry, you have to constantly move the visor.
An incredible experience. You discover life aboard the ISS as if you were there. Seeing the Earth from the vastness of space is magnificent.
Fantastische ervaring. Soms heb je enkel punt meer, zeker als je buiten de ISS en de ruimte loopt. In an interesting ISS case where there are some astronauts you can find, and in fact you can find out about this test. Aanbevelingswaardig.
Very good. Great experience. The warning for pacemaker wearers should be more explicit, especially before buying tickets.
Amazing experience with friends. Climbing the pyramid was a little daunting, and luckily we had asked them to minimize the feeling of vertigo. A magical moment that makes you want to try something else 🙏 Thank you to the very friendly young man at reception
A family of four spent a Saturday afternoon together, and it was simply an excellent time to share discovering the ISS. The staff were fantastic, funny, and professional. We will definitely be back to explore other exhibits! Thank you to the team!
Eclipso Lyon is a gem for virtual reality enthusiasts and those seeking immersive adventures. The facilities are state-of-the-art, the scenarios captivating, and the team welcoming and professional. The immersion is total, and the graphics are breathtaking. Whether you're alone, with family, or with friends, it's a unique and unforgettable experience. Don't miss it if you're ever in Lyon! I highly recommend it!
Our first immersive experience with Kheops was a success! We really felt like we were inside the pyramid, even at the top. The explanations were clear and interesting, and the images were beautiful. Time flew by!
