Le Futuroscope
15 minutes from Futuroscope park
​
Your guest house is located a 15-minute drive from Futuroscope.
In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.
Poitiers Futuroscope no longer needs to be presented. However, let's mention some of its attractions that we liked the most:
-
The extraordinary journey: embark on a flying carpet and experience the most beautiful landscapes on the planet
-
Eyes wide closed: a journey made in absolute darkness, guided by a blind person, in environments that reproduce imaginary situations: a city, the jungle ... The small monetary contribution requested at the entrance should not discourage you from make this beautiful attraction of Futuroscope
-
Dance with the robots: a classic in which you are "manipulated", literally, by robots, and without too much care
-
The mysteries of the Kube: a nice show that combines live performance and HD projection.
and also:
-
Arthur (that of the Invisibles), the Ice Age, the World of the invisible, Cosmic shocks, The law of the strongest
-
The Gyrotour offers a nice panorama of the park and the surrounding campus
​
and of course the closing show is a must. Imagined by Cirque du Soleil, it combines sound, light, live performance, water games (and fire) ... we take full eyes!

How to visit Futuroscope while avoiding the wait?
​
Prepare your schedule well if you want to see "all of Futuroscope" in one day. The attractions do not all open at the same times, try to make a schedule to cover as much as possible. Obviously, it's easier when you have little expectations, and for that, organize yourself.
Decode the Futuroscope opening hours : they vary according to the season and the expected attendance. The earlier the park opens, the later it closes, and the more people there are. On the weekend of April 22, 2017, Futuroscope opens at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. on Sunday: those who were able to come on Sunday will have been less crowded than on Saturday.
​
Use staggered hours whenever possible: you will have fewer people in the early morning or early evening, so if you can adjust your meal times accordingly, good for you. For example, our house being fifteen minutes from Futuroscope, you can come and rest a bit at the end of the afternoon before returning to Futuroscope in the early evening, when most of them start to leave the park.
​
The Premium Pass allows priority access to certain attractions and is affordable: book it in advance as quantities are limited.
​
Finally, don't forget to ask your hostess how to avoid the line in the parking lot!
