I loved this Centre as it was unlike most centres in that it had more than postcards and books(although it had these also).The gifts on display were different and of a good quality.The staff were helpful and informative.Certainly worth a visit. More

Go early to improve your chances of photos without people in. Consider walking down & getting the shuttle bus back up to the visitor centre. More
