  • Rating: 4.0 out of 5"by Sanjay J. at Yelp User Review2/2/2013The Tech Museum, located in downtown San Jose with nearby parking! It has fascinating exhibits concerting all sorts of facets of technology - computers (I love it!), Health, physics, music, food, etc.! It also has a wonderful gift store with all sorts of books, toys, unusual gifts - and they seem to be quite well priced - not all way expensive. Reminds me of my workshop at home! HA!

We like the variety of special exhibits. We liked Myth Busters as it was very hands on. We also like the special weekend classes and summer camps. The camps are a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for - and here you get a lot. Read full review

Ive gone at around 11 or 2 any other time is madness.... Read full review
  • Rating: 5.0 out of 5"by Michael A. at Yelp User Review1/25/2013I went here in November 2010, and I still have been hard pressed to find a museum as good as this one. I think what makes this one stand out is the interactivity: I remember getting to play with some 3D simulators and a DNA tool. Also bought an amusing coffee cup from here that remains one of my lady's favorites. Read full review
