We enjoyed every minute, from dining in the Cesar restaurant to the series of lectures in the park. Absolutely must visit with children, what a gem!

Nice open air museum of prehistory and antique history. Nice housing reproductions. Artisans show and explain how certain works and crafts were made. When we visited it children were teached to make some small pottery items. The staff was nice and helpful. There was also a plant maze and a walking area.

Real nice open air museum. You start via an arboretum and a plant maze that is a bit too easy. Then there is an exhibition building that looks like the home of Barbapappa, containing a walk through the historic eras of the area. Charmingly dusty here and there but well done. The open air museum with re-enactments is real fun: they really invite the children (and grown-ups) to participate in making flint, fire and coins. At the restaurant or shop, try the Cervoise (locally brewn), it is really refreshing! From Picquigny, there is an entrance to the park via the cycle path along the Somme.

Great museum and live demonstrations of paleolithic and neolithic skills. All in French (naturally)

A great time for both me and the kids. Samara is beautiful mix of history and art. The only downside was the lack of languages other than French on the many displays. I wish I spoke better French as to have been able to learn more about what we were seeing, but that isn't the case. Additional information in English, German, and Spanish would have been made for a much better learning experience.

This is a lovely attraction and highly recommended for families looking for fun days out in the Amiens area. Although everything is reconstructed it is highly informative and offers spacious nature walks through lovely gardens and areas of reconstructed prehistory including habitation, tools and demonstrations of pottery making and the like. It's much better with a guide as they are very knowledgable but I didn't see any English speaking guides on offer. I found the written panels a bit limited walking around and it's not set up in any sequential order. We saw a demo of fire making from flint which was fantastic and a guide gave us a lengthy but fascinating talk around the pavilion in which we learnt loads about human evolution and cultural prehistory. Overall very much enjoyed by our family - kids and grownups alike
