It's super cute and probably an activity that parents and their small children would enjoy. For some adults, maybe it could be a cute activity to remind them of their childhood. It's a slow ride around. Think Disneyland but much shorter. Great for locals if they are already in the area. Not always open, so check ahead of time. The best part, the ride is free!

The space we rented was clean and exactly as they described. our party had an amazing time. We followed the guidelines and rules and had zero issues This facility is great for parties and just to drop in and enjoy. I think they do a great job of ensuring guest safety. I appreciate that they understand that people are driving and have rules in place to protect patrons. we had over 80 guests that all left happy and said they had never been Togo Kart World despite being Southbay residents. All of the kids had a blast and the parents agreed we would be making another visit very soon. I would give them 10 stars if I could. management is super responsive. They are attentive and provide an unforgettable experience.

The good: I came during their last weekend so prices were…read more60% off (so they were $9 per ticket). My daughter was free because she's under 2. It's also free for 65+ year olds. The music was bumping and the bounce houses are huge and so much fun. I felt like the adults were having just as much fun running around and revisiting their childhood. They had a snow cone station where you could add your own syrups. It was $7. They have socks if you forgot to bring yours. They also have a shoe holding station. There's open shaded seating outside the bounce houses where you can store your stuff. My daughter loved it here though she was initially scared and apprehensive. The bad: I came at 11am but it was already getting pretty warm. Though there were shady and breezy areas of the bounce house there were also really hot areas where it was tough to stand on because the floor was too hot. The toddler bounce house was right by a really loud speaker. My daughter covered her ears because she wasn't used to the loud music. The interesting: I'm unsure if they have lockers for purses but I just wore my crossbody bag with me in the bounce house.

Great fun for our 4 year old and some friends. The first 30 minutes flew by so fast, but by the…read moreend of the 80 minutes (they end 10 minutes early before the next wave enters) we were spent. Staff was very friendly and helpful, although if you don't actively need them, the ones in the bounce area are usually chilling on their phones in shady corners. I don't blame them. Other guests were pretty courteous. I don't have much to add beyond what others have said, but I do have some tips: Go early! We got tix for the first wave, 9am. By 10 it was getting warm and by 10:30 everyone was sweating like crazy. See my pic. If you want shade in the "sitting area", you need to grab one of the tables close to the bounce area. Of course, this only works in the morning before the sun gets too high. Also it means sitting close to the loudspeaker, so there's a tradeoff. You will have to leave your shoes and stuff unattended if your entire party goes inside. Expect mildly bruised knees by the time you get home. Bring your own bottled water. And yes, wear your own socks if you don't want to have to buy theirs. Have fun!

Bubblemania was so much fun to have at my nephew's 6th birthday…read more They came right on time with all the supplies: kiddy pools, wands of many shapes, and a ton of bubble solution. The kids LOVED it! And it was great for the adults because the kids never left the bubble stations. There were so many different wands and ways to make bubbles. The lady who came did such a nice job. She was very friendly and so sweet to the kids. Any time someone had trouble, she would patiently show them how to make the bubbles. As the activity went on, she introduced other bubble making tools like a rope. Each new item captivated the kids. In particular, a few of the kids were timid at first. I thought the lady was very kind and encouraging. All of the kids warmed up to her and took part with the bubbles. I was happy to see some adults getting in on the fun as well. And even some parents teaming up with the kids to try to make the biggest bubble possible. It was a ton of fun all around. At the end, everything was cleaned up and taken away. It was a very effortless way to have an outdoor activity for kids. Highly recommend!

Bubblemania was absolutely incredible and the clear hit of the party for our 4 and 2 year olds and…read moreour guests. From the start, scheduling and putting down the deposit was very simple and straightforward. Nat reached out ahead of time to confirm timing, location, and all the details, which made everything feel easy and well organized. During the party, Nat did an amazing job showing the kids how everything worked, demonstrating some seriously impressive bubble skills, and most importantly were incredibly thoughtful about how to engage with each child. Some kids wanted hands-on support, others preferred to jump right in on their own, and Nat handled that balance perfectly. Nat also did a great job keeping the space tidy and ready for the next kid, which made the whole experience feel calm and well run. We received so many compliments from other parents. My 67-year-old dad said it was the best birthday party he's ever been to. Honestly, I don't know how we could have another party at a local park without Bubblemania. Truly incredible and worth every bit.

I have never had such a quick rude interaction with a company. I was googling fossils for purchase…read morehaving bought a number online before and actually been to a number of fields and dug up fossils myself came across. This guy seemed an amazing deal price was killer and I thought maybe it just didn't have a lot of fossils and it was a lot of reconstruction. Nowhere on that piece or any of the other pieces if you go through their website, does it say replica the only way you find the word replicas if you go to their website the very first time and go as if you're going to try to book an event and then it says Shop our replicas. I was asking a very simple question when I found out it was a replica. I wasn't rude. I said, cancel my order and they jumped down my throat. It was the rudest thing I've ever experienced and I hope no one ever has to deal with them after reading this.

***edit*** Since the owner replied and said I waited to call…read moreback for 4 days I thought I'd post "evidence" of that not being true. I called and spoke to her Monday, June 21st. She did not tell me to go online to book. She did say I had to have a $750 minimum since she'd be coming to San Diego, and I was ok paying the extra. Again, no mention to go online to do this while talking. I can't go back to Tuesday the 22nd on my phone to screenshot my log. But I've posted the 2 calls I made to her Wednesday and the call I made on Thursday. I left messages asking for a call back and that we'd spoken. Let's be clear, they were not booked. I've been looking for a Dino encounter type of company for my sons 4th birthday party. After speaking with several companies who were unavailable, this was the only one who was available. I believe her name is Carrie (maybe jeri?) who owns it. When I originally spoke with her before other companies, the first thing I thought was, she doesn't sound very charismatic nor entertaining. When I learned she was one of the "presenters" is when I searched for another company. Unfortunately no one else was available for my date so I called back. I spoke with her Monday about booking and she confirmed availability but said she was in the car and would call me back later to finish booking. Ok, great. She didn't call me back. I called her back Tuesday afternoon and left a message. Same thing Wednesday, I called a few times to follow up and pay. No response. Today, Thursday, I called and got a hold of her. She apparently has booked someone in my spot since we spoke. I am sooo angry. When we hung up Monday, I would have paid if she'd told me how instead said she was driving and we'd handle later. So I assumed we had our spot. When I reminded her of this, she told me I needed to understand she speaks to a lot of people every day and she had car troubles which she had to fix and handle. Quite frankly, I do understand things happen BUT how do you confirm someone else when you already told someone else they had that spot. Im furious but it may be for the best as I can not imagine her type of personality entertaining a bunch of 4 year olds. Terrible way to run your business. Look for a different company!!! I do NOT recommend. If you follow my reviews, I do NOT typically give out 1 star reviews and I'm very fair. But this review deserves it as they completely left me hanging for a party!

He led the birthday song during cake time, read stories, guided a treasure hunt, hosted a dance party, and even conducted sword-training activities. We created a custom treasure hunt and shared the details with him in advance, and he did an excellent job leading more than 10 kids through it seamlessly. The children had an amazing time, and many parents commented on how magical, energetic, and engaging the party was. We were also very impressed with the team's fast, smooth communication throughout the planning process. Every question we had was answered promptly and thoroughly. We're so grateful for the wonderful experience and would absolutely hire them again!
