Situated at the previous venue for the Winter Olympics, part of the ski hills have been refurbished into a Downhill Karting circuit. Pro Tip 1: Look thru their website in advance to purchase online packages (many of the family tickets comes with a free digital photo, which you normally have to pay for separately) Pro Tip 2: Do not toss your safety helmet yet when you're done!!! There's a scan code on your helmet that is used to retrieve the photos of you speeding down the track taken by the on track mounted cameras. The whole circuit sequence was perfect: From fitting your safety helmet, to riding the conveyor to the top of the hill, getting your cart checked out, to returning your cart at the bottom of the hill, and then going again (there's no way you're going to go just once and not feel the yearning to want to go again!) Everything was very well choreographed. Looking forward to coming here again, it was loads of fun!

Cobbs Adventure Park in Calgary AB was definitely a great and fun place to visit !!!…read moreIt is a mix of zoo, activities, games and rides for the kids and family, a little restaurant and sweets stand :) The zoo is a bit of an animal farm with two capybaras, kangaroos and wallabies, sheep, goats, pigs, porcupines, emus, chickens / roosters and a turkey, and a sloth. Part of the experience is that, with the purchase of tickets, you can go into the capybara enclosure and meet the capys, feed and pet them. We are big fans of capybaras, we saw them in person at the Edmonton zoo, and follow many accounts on Instagram, but this was our first time meeting and petting them. They are super relaxed and super friendly. We had the opportunity to feed them fruits and greens, which was so funny!! We then visited the kangaroos and wallabies. Both were friendly, soft and used to humans. We visited with them, and fed them foods. We visited and interacted with the sheep and alpacas, which were also nice to see and pet. The staff of the park were very friendly and professional, and answered any questions visitors would have about animals. The ambiance was very nice - visiting with the animals, having a snack or busy with the games, it was a great day to enjoy the outdoors and animals!!

I was devastated to hear how your employees - youths have been treated by guests form East India…read more All family from India have been cornered your employees 16-18 years old - yelling at them and threatening them, just because your rides are not convenient for not tall enough kids. There are some rules that guests don't want to obey, and when your employees-youths tried to explain the rules, they got cornered, yelled at and even threatened with guests hands up to them.  That is so unacceptable and there needs to be more older supervisors and managers to help your employees-youths and not allow anybody to treat them as a shit.  Employees-youths at Calaway park have been paid minimum wadge and should be treated with all respect as anybody else in this country. Something must be done about these issues - as a society and as Canadians, we should protect our employees, especially youths-kids while working at such a place. They should have more protections at the work then 18-year-old supervisor, who got yelled as well for half an hour by the same people. If we don't do anything about it, we fell as a society.

Went to Calaway Park since it has been some time since we last visited. It was warm (22) but still…read morevery sunny and warm. Bring extra water, a good hat & sunscreen. It was Fall when we last went and, it was so cold (wind) on the rides. If you go in Fall, bring gloves/mittens. Lines were longer this time. Park was clean. We loaded up with our own sandwiches, snacks and water. It was easy to manage as we could snack through out the whole day. It was easier since we prefer healthier options too. Admission is $51.95 plus tax. We went after 2pm and paid $35.95 each. It was busy and we didn't get on as many rides as the first time. The first time (2017), the after 2pm rate was half or close to half-off. Like the hand sanitizer at each ride, though I didn't see anyone using it. I had an immunocompromised guest so we just 'sanitized' with a sanitizing wipe as we went around. Saw one staff member wiping down a ride. Lots of places to sit and rest. If you have mobility concerns, you can rent a wheelchair. I think a mobility scooter would be so much more efficient. Notice the Gift Shop is open to 7:15 pm so you have a bit of time once the rides stop to have a look around. Bring cash if you want to play the games or do the bonus activities. It was ok. Kids loved it.

Such a great zoo!…read more Clean and well organized. We have been here for hours and only seen half the zoo. So many interactive experiences and each paddock or animal enclosure was like new and well managed. Nothing seemed dated or in disrepair. All the animals were lounging and we didn't get to see some as they were off exhibit or sleeping. Plenty of places to stop and rest. Plenty of food and water and restrooms. Plenty of staff and top zoo experience for us and we've been to many zoos. Lemurs and Dogs Penguins have standout facilities. Definitely would recommend this for a family or locals. An annual pass would be the thing to consider for locals. Also, this is an all day experience. Pack a lunch and take your time.

There were so many animals I didn't expect, a butterfly conservatory and lots of places to eat. I had a dole whip halfway through the trip. I saw many animals including my favorites, giraffe, zebra and camels! Hippopotamus, lions, flamingos, gorillas, and a gorgeous peacock! I would recommend coming here to anyone who wants to spend the day with friends or family.

Not your average go-carting place. Very clean and safe, you enter a well-lit warehouse with shiny…read morefloors. Self registration takes a minute or two, then another 15 minutes to sign in and pay (group of five took 15 minutes). We came as a group of five on a rather crowded night. Had to wait about 45 minutes before we were given a safety briefing and helmets. By the time we entered the cars we were grouchy, but it was worth the wait! Races were not too long, but a lot of fun. You are not allowed bumping other cars, hitting the walls or even drifting. This sounds bad, but a bit of accidental drifting or quick impact doesn't get you kicked out. In exchange for stricter rules you get very fast cars. Never been in a faster go-cart. Races are fast paced and action packed. Bit pricy, but races don't expire, so I suggest buying more than enough (3 is good) and coming back later with extra. Overall, the staff were happy and helpful, the facility was clean and organized and the racing was fast and fun. If it hadn't taken so long I would have given it five stars. We went on a Tuesday night yet it was still highly crowded. Either way, I would recommend this to anyone looking for some more serious racing.

This place was kind of a miss to be honest. We recently held a 10 year old boy birthday party…read morehere. The facilities are cluttered and kind of dirty. I am not super picky (especially in that kind of a place) but when 10 year old boys are commented on how dirty the floors and party rooms are, you know there are some cleaning issues. Just saying. We booked two games of laser tag each. The equipment wasn't turned on properly for the first game so it didn't really work which they fixed for the second game but no apology or added games were offered. A couple of the kids have been there before and they said compared to Laser Quest, this place isn't as good as the equipment often glitches. They have a program where you order food through them from Domino's pizza before the kids go to play and ideally the pizza has arrived when they are done. It was but it was sitting behind their counter and we had to ask for it. Only then did they bring plate and cups for the pop. It kind of seemed like all the workers just hang out there for fun and the customers were interrupting their socializing. At one point they were bargaining with one another as to who would need to serve us? Not exactly top service, even for a recreation facility. The kids had fun and the pizza was hot and tasty (thanks Dominos) so I'll stick with 2 stars. But this place might be a case of "you get what you pay for" and you might be better off at the more expensive Laser Quest. Also of note, there were 1-2 dogs on site, roaming the lobby. Friendly dogs (and I love dogs) but when you have 2 allergic kids with you who aren't yours, you are more aware of how "dogs at the workplace" may not be a good idea as a business practice.

Since the first time I took my kids to play laser tag they've been hooked. Every weekend they ask…read more Every. Weekend. I think they think daddy is made of money or something. When my cash flow allows and I just need to shoot my kids (with lasers that is), Lasertrek is my first choice. It has a wide expansive location, and even more importantly, is considerably less expensive than it's competition. My only negative is that since it's a hidden on Flint road, the amount of people who play there is definitely less than it's competition. They also have airsoft games at night which I think I might try and convince "the boys" to try rather than pubbing it up one night. Those buggers need to be shot bigtime and lasers won't be enough. 19/30
