Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Rohani M1 contributionWe always love WEM!! Why I have a 4 instead of a 5 is due to the lack of a multi faith room for prayers. We spent more than half a day as it is a huge mall so having a place to pray would be nice. Canada is a country of multi faith thus requesting for a multi faith prayer room is not too much to ask.Written 24 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- tdsuperstarToronto, Canada19,562 contributionsOne of my top highlights from my all too brief trip to Edmonton! I had to get back to the airport early but trekked out to Elk Island to checkout the Wood Bisons and other wildlife. We loved the brisk cool wind of the Fall while checking out the animals. We checked out as much as we could, including the visitor centre in only 1.5 hours. I’d say, give yourself at least double that, at minimum! Driving around, being able to walk around and see the animals up close and personal, made for such a great start to our day. Going on a Monday morning, first thing allowed us to have a bit of the park to ourselves. That was nice! A solid 25 kms from Edmonton proper, Elk Island is a reasonably priced and important experience to check out while in Alberta’s Capital City!Written 4 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sask ExplorerSaskatchewan, Canada389 contributionsVery calm and relaxing place to visit. Sitting in with the tropics definitely makes your forget you in alberta in the snow. All the plants are well labeled on what they are.

- Ron HSaskatoon, Canada3 contributionsThis is an outstanding Water Park and has been a fantastic place to go since I first went 30 years ago as a teenager. The place is clean, staff was friendly, helpful and fun was had by everyone.
As a parent this is the first time my wife and I took our children to the waterpark. This was a destination stop for us as we booked in at the Fantasyland Hotel and spent the next day at the waterpark. I believe this time of year (October 2023) must be a slower time of year or maybe we just were lucky and found a good promotion. Hotel rooms were 40% off and also if you purchase passes for the waterpark or galaxyland from the hotel front desk they were also 40% off. What fantastic savings!
The only gripe I had was that my kids being on short side of what a 4 and 7 year old would typically be, were not able to take in all the slides at the waterpark. My 7 year old daughter who is just short at 46" tall and is an outstanding swimmer wasn't able to utilize all of the slides. I wish they had something posted outside the waterpark or if they do that it was more visible. You get charged entry based on your age but in reality you only get to use a portion of water slides based on your height, age has nothing to do with it. I also made the mistake of assuming that I'd be able to go down the slide together with them, more specifically my 4 year old son as he is still developing his swimming skills, but going down together is not an option.
Despite that we spent 6 hours there and it was fantastic. Both kids, my wife and I had a great experience. We will certainly go again in the future, but we will wait until both kids are at least 48" tall so they can take it all in.Written 5 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bob TLas Vegas, NV33 contributionsI’m just posting this to make others aware that this ride is cash only. I know for a fact that if you arrive at the Jasper Plaza stop 5 minutes before departure, you will not have time to get to an ATM. Looks like a cool ride, but I didn’t get to find out first hand.Written 21 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ScottkjsKent, UK752 contributionsWe had the pleasure of having the free tour of the building, which was very informative. The staff were very friendly and helpful. And it was great to learn more about Alberta history of government. The building is set in in lovely grounds as well.Written 25 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- TennisStar602New Jersey712 contributionsI rode the Ferris wheel which cost about six Canadian dollars (CA $6.00). This ride lasted about ten (10) minutes and I got great views. I thought that the staff could have been a bit more friendly. I walked around the entire amusement park. There were many other rides and games to enjoy.Written 11 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
