Our Planet is the only one of its kind in the world. We spent 2 hours there and could have spent longer to watch an 1 1/2 hour film. The cost is $25.00 for a full guided tour which I would suggest. The Nasa satelite that sends information down to a huge spere is quite amazing More

Our Planet is a high-tech exhibition of the impact of climate change on Mother Earth. We visited the centre as residents of Saint Lucia but it is perfectly situated for cruise ship passengers and other Vistors to Castries More

Even if you are only popping onto the island as part of a cruise ship, this is required viewing for any visitor. It's an excellent reminder of why it's important to protect our local environment, especially how you can look after St Lucia to ensure further generations can enjoy and make a home here. The tour makes productive use out... More

We enjoyed our time at Our Planet. The exhibits were interesting and informative. (After going through the attraction, we were amazed that St Lucia doesn't have a comprehensive recycling program.) If you can, go on a day when the cruise ships aren't in port. We had the place all to ourselves. The guides were great. I think kids would like... More

I agree with the other reviews…this place is really incredible. I’ve definitely not seen anything like it anywhere else and all the profits go to support environmental projects on the island so not only are you having a great time (I know my family and I did!) but you’re also putting something back into the island. Our Planet has different... More

Refreshing and pleasantly different from the rest of the island. We visited on Feb 20, 2012 with our little baby and had virtually the entire space to ourselves. Our guide was excellent and knew a lot about the features and displays. The space is deceptively large and filled with top notch technological displays, games and visuals. We thoroughly enjoyed the... More

We had read the reviews and knew it would be good,and it clearly exceeded our expectations. We were there for 2 hours, went out to lunch and returned for another 1.5 hours. Kids are 8 and 10 and enjoyed the interactive exhibits and the informative NASA globe. Personal guide accompanies entire visit. Lear n about the environment, ecology. More
