Visit the Greensboro Science Center

Where else can you find an aquarium, a zoo, a 3D theater, a museum, and ropes course all in the same location? The Greensboro Science Center is the correct answer. With blue frogs and golden monkeys, this science-based complex is a wonderland for animal and nature lovers. Admission to the museum, zoo, and aquarium costs less than $20, and previous visitors report that the museum has activities for people of all ages.

Visitors can purchase tickets to SKYWILD, a treetop adventure park that encourages participants aged 8 and up to mimic the motions of various animals on a suspended ropes course, for a particularly thrilling experience. If your family is looking for a more gentle activity, the beautiful Greensboro carousel is located on the grounds. In addition to the traditional horses, the carousel includes animals that are associated with North Carolina.
