About About the place

The IMAG History & Science Center in Fort Myers blends the exploration of Southwest Florida’s past with engaging science exhibits. Housed in a former train depot, the museum features exhibits covering Native American artifacts, pioneer life, and WWII history alongside interactive science displays, a stingray touch tank, a hurricane simulator, and a small aquarium. While some areas show wear and tear, the museum provides an affordable and educational experience, particularly suited for families with children aged 2-12. It’s a popular choice for rainy days or a break from the Florida sun.

We went to this place which is amazing and we booked the entire suite for the family. Everybody had a great time and we really enjoyed our stay. The service and the staff was superb and we were able to indulge in their spa as well which was awesome. Must visit place for everybody.

While making our itinerary, we included this place towards the end and thought that incase we are behind time, we will skip it. But thank God, we didn’t because it was one of the greatest places to visit. Easily accessible, conveniently located, gorgeous location and the easy navigation for the entire tour of this place made it much more fun and enjoyable. I will suggest everyone to please visit this place.

The hotel was a nice place to stay and the best part here was the free wifi and free parking which is the hardest thing to find in this city. The hotel was well equipped and the staff was very professional. The rooms were big enough and it was a decent stay which also included breakfast.

It is a great place to stay and gives you much luxury and comfort at a great price. The service is great and the management was very prompt and was very helpful and assisted us with everything. The rooms were big and spacious, well maintained and the views from the window of the city skyline was just stunning. Loved my experience here!

This is a beautiful city which is known for its historic locations with so many stories associated with it. There are plenty of locations and lots to see here. It is a place where you will never be bored. Take a guided tour and make sure you visit all the places and trust me it will be worth it.. This is an amazing street with lots of ancient buildings and so many shops from where you can purchase so many things. The street is the most happening point of the city and has a lot to see and do. A lot of great cafes and restaurants are also there which are the best places to try out some tasty food and indulge in nice drinking. It was a great experience.

It was a pleasing and an interesting visit to this great museum. They had a huge collection of fascinating artefacts and culturally infused items. I really enjoyed a few parts of it. It is quite big so you might feel a little bored in between. You can skip through whatever doesn't interest you.

Summer vacations call for an amazing holiday and this is a good place to go where you can enjoy nature in the midst of mountains and waterfalls. The whole place gives a very soothing vibe and makes you feel relaxed and refreshed. You can do little hikes and find some gorgeous location and pack a picnic and enjoy your time in the natural surroundings.

I took my kids to this place. It was an awesome experience for all of us. I do think strongly that your kids will love it but the bonus is that you will love it too. It gave me a chance to indulge in fun activities and be present with my children. We made a full day out of it and honestly it was an amazing experience for the whole family.

We were so excited to visit this place but were thoroughly disappointed while reaching and looking at the mismanaged affair. The place was crowded with tourists and there was no system to arrange them. The staff was also very rude.

Our visit to this place has been both educational and fun. My kids were so excited about the visit that it kind of made my day. Our guide was extra sweet and special and made sure all of us had a good time. He made sure we get to know all the facts and history of this place. I am really thankful to him.

There are places in the world which are so beautiful and magical that going there once does not suffice your travel karma. This is definitely one of those. I loved it here and the place had my heart.

It was one the greatest experiences we had. We loved the place and more than the place the people were simply amazing. The hospitality and the warmth provided to us was beyond expectation and we are forever grateful.

We stayed in for one night here and the hotel was too expensive and not at all worth it. The place was a little crappy in shape and a lot of maintenance was going on and all the rooms were not even furnished properly. But we had no other option and had to stay therefore had to sacrifice and paid extra to stay a night.
