Pretty neat place to check out, but not for the price! It's rather outrageous for what the place is. You could do much more for the same money. If they lowered the price I'd say, "Check it out."

I definitely liked it. It was very interesting. Someone mentioned it was expensive but we booked through last minute travel and got in for $15/person. Some of the exhibits were disturbing to me, but they were interesting nonetheless. We probably wont go back unless they upgrade or add more things but it's definitely something to see if you're in town... More

I've been to most of the ripley's museums in the states. I absolutly love them because they all have something differnt. Downside, its just too darn expensive. Its definitly worth the money once. But its hard to justify going back.

This attraction very much had the look and feel of a ripley's believe it or not book or the tv show, which was appreciated and part of the charm. The exhibits ranged from display to interactive with lots of really great photo ops. Very interesting, cool, gross and just plain fun diplays/exhibits. The kids and hubby really liked this attraction... More

I really enjoyed this place! A lot of very interesting facts and exhibits and a lot of great photo opportunities. The spinning room at the end is a weird but fun experience! I wouldn't recommend taking a day away from the parks to come here, maybe just come some evening after dinner because it's open quite late!

My daughter wanted to go here so we did. Not very big, you are thru it too quick the best part is the outside of the building.

It is wheel chair accessible so my grandmother was able to move around but could not read aloot of the info on... More

I was a little disappointed. I thought there would be loads of interesting things to do and see but this was not the case. It is ok but I wouldn't go again. I found it to be a little much for what you get.

Our 8 year old is finally at an age where she could appreciate this place. I remember waiting for the Ripley's Believe it or Not show to come on TV, and how amazing it always was. The odditoriums are full of this and that...definitely things you will remember from the TV shows, but much, much more. Many hands-on displays and... More
