What happens on the day?
On arrival at your experience, the two of you will join an 8-person group. The experience involves actors, music and technology, so to enable everyone to make the most out of their visit, time slots will run every 10 minutes. As you step inside, you’ll immediately be immersed in H.G. Wells’ Victorian world, where live actors, holograms, 5D effects and movie quality sets combine to make this an experience like no other.
Your visit will last for 2 hours, which includes a 20 minute interval in the Red Weed Bar. You’re advised to wear comfortable footwear and clothes you can move in as you’ll need to bend down while walking and crawling, squeeze through narrow tunnels and to get through tight spaces. However if you feel unable to participate there are other routes, simply speak to a member staff on arrival.
