WonderWorks Destiny - Syracuse, New York

Myron T.

Wonder works inside the Destiny mall, an indoor museum of sorts, themed on the world around us. There are lots of different interactive displays and videos to watch. Ranging from Tesla coils, wind simulator, space missions, 3d simulator rides, bed of nails, and many other interactive things to check out. great fun for the kids and a chance for the adults to act like kids. It was reasonably clean. Tickets are around 21 dollars for adults, children a little less. It may have been the day we were there. But many of the interactive displays were not working properly or not at all. This could have been an off day. But keep this in mind when choosing to visit. I would have happily given this a 5 star review if it hadn't been for the frequent disappointmen of wanting to try a display, only to have it not work. Approximately 23 were not working. Overall, I think you should give it a try, especially if you have children. They will love it.

Canyon climb at Destiny's mall is one of the lesser expense attractions at <$20 per child. Unlimited climbing on suspended rope bridges. Great for all ages. Kids over 48" do not need adult. Potentially long wait times if crowded. Wait for tickets was 10 min. Plus, wait for harness was 20 min.

My son had a blast on this, spent and hour playing around. Very safe! Only negative was the wait time to get him on it.

Nice place. Kids waited over an hour for pizza party we paid for. Not their fault but really.

WonderWorks had 2 employees in the museum. There were 4 rides. 1 person did their best to run 4 rides. Who is wiping down the equipment that is all hands on? Nobody.

Ropes course; The person running the ropes course smelled like cat piss. Literally had to hold my breath while said person was doing their job.

After this amazing experience, both of our kids are very sick a week later. Don't Go!!

In the wonder works part in the interactive course, I wasn’t strapped in right. My shoulders were bruised afterwards. I was flying out of the seat. Horribly overpriced for something that is not friendly for all ages and all exhibits DO NOT work. It’s always under maintenance. Cannot enjoy the experience. Do not go here if you’re expecting a good time.

This one is located inside a mall. They open only at 12 noon which is an issue . Hope they opened earlier - say 10 am .. luckily we were in early and there was no crowd. If crowded I’m sure the wait times are more for basketballs, and other kids games . Not many employees to help with 4D shows , helicopter rides etc. we had to go and call them from the front desk ..

Overall the place was fun for kids . Luckily it’s not insanely expensive . For 20$ it is worth it and with rope adventure it was about 30$. It took an hour for us to finish.. nicely located in a mall. Lots of food options .. parking is good . 👍👍

I must say, Wonderworks isn't bad. I mean the price is a little pricey, but in all it was a fun experience. Although.. Thing is. Staff. The people at the front desk were DELIGHTFUL. And my family and I had a rather well experience with the staff at the counter! Although. On the actual floor where the exhibits are is a different story. A group of 3 females had stuck together the entire time, talking, and not even half doing their job. And one of them had a major attitude as well. You could say thank you to her, and get absolutely nothing but a smug look from her. We had rode on the roller coaster simulator asking for wild and she shut the door rudly and put us in the medium mode. When I was younger wonderworks was a fun experience for me. Although this group of girls really just ruined the mood in all. My family and I even went to do Lazer tag as the group of 3 went to hide! My dad went out and said you guys are pretty ridiculous today. Which in all they were! Remind you we were sitting in the Lazer tag area for a while. And to top it off my family and I were the only ones there too. Wonderworks was extremely empty when it came to visitors that day. All in all my opinion they need to get replaced and need to realize Customer service is apart of your job. Please do better. Your job is not hard there. I mean even the bathrooms were very gross and extremely unkept... In my opinion (this does not include the staff at the counters.) The floor staff need to be let go if they can't figure out they don't get paid to talk all shift. Being a paying customer you shouldn't feel like asking someone to assist you and do their job to be an inconvenience. Other than that wonderworks was a fun experience. But I recommend you guys look into replacing that group of 3.
