Amazing place for kids, highly recommended, my 5 year old daughter loved it.  We had a gentleman called Özcan who spoke perfect English to help & guide us through both Kidzania & the shopping mall ❤️

"Mr. Özcan Samsum is an absolute gem at KidZania! His dedication, warmth, and professionalism truly stand out. He goes above and beyond to ensure every child and parent feels welcome and has an unforgettable experience. His ability to handle situations with patience and a smile is remarkable. Mr. Samsum is not just a staff member; he’s a role model for the kids and a true asset to the KidZania team. Thank you for making our visit so special!"

We went there on weekdays. Such a pleasant experience because there much lesser people (thats why we went on weekdays).

Price for foreigners were TL 1500.

The staffs were very friendly especially Ebru and Sana. Ebru can speak English very well, hence, the conversation were much easier. Thank you Ebru!

Lots of staffs to try inside with lots of freebies, most importantly the food section; biscuits, gummy, pizza, donuts, ice cream, chocolate, etc.

The downside was the place close at 4 PM. In my country, KidZania opens from 10 AM - 6 PM on weekdays.

One of the best experiences for the kids.
My kids loved it as they enjoyed adult life by earning money to spend it to buy their food.

Very educational, but I wish there is more staff speaking English.

Note: Leave a whole day for it as the kids will not agree to leave and too many things for them to do. My kids stayed for 8hrs

We heard of this centre before but it’s first time we came here. It was a lot of fun and emotions watching our kid taking part of different careers. I find it better than just regular fun centres due to the life learning aspect.
