Tiny Tours: Ant to Apple

This 45-minute tour takes young explorers on a journey to learn how insects support everything from pollination to pest control, with entry to Antopia included for a deeper dive into their fascinating world.
In Antopia, visitors shrink to the size of ants to experience an immersive, interactive adventure inside a bustling ant colony. With vibrant pathways, glowing light trails, and engaging projections that respond to your movements, Antopia reveals the hidden world of ants in stunning detail. Marvel at 3D sculptures, nurture baby ant eggs, and join worker ants in their daily tasks – all while uncovering the secrets of this incredible superorganism.
