"Fun, Interactive, But Slightly Underwhelming"

Ripley’s is very fun and very unique for what it is. But it has a lot of downsides too. First off, the place is very crowded during busy times but not REALLY crowded. The wax museum had some really accurate looking wax figures. The odditorium had some very interesting facts and interactive elements. But, the mirror maze is very underwhelming and barely has anything (the maze is very short). The wax museum had some sad looking figures. And skip the Disney section; they like didn’t even try. The shop is nice, though, and not that much overpriced. One more thing, the size of the building is not accurate, it’s much smaller than it looks.

"Good exhibits - especially the wax figures."

We did a 3-way ticket. The lady was helpful with the kiosk to purchase tickets as there are so many packages. The oddities had good items - I felt that too many of them were pictures with script to read. The wax museum was well done with lots of statues. They were well grouped. I did not do the haunted house. We did he 7-d which if you like simulated rides and shooting at aliens would be fun. The people I was with enjoyed it. Bathrooms were clean. The outdoor area was nice but not really a garden.

Overprice. THere were 4 to 5 attractions and the price was really high. I think 29.00 would be a good price.

This is the second Ripleys Museum I have been to (the other was San Antonio) and this is by far the best of the two. There are 5 attractions under one roof.....Ripleys, wax museum, laser maze, mirror maze, and 7D theater. We only went to the Ripleys and wax museum sections so I can't speak on the others. The Ripleys part is well put together with lots of attractions to see and some hands on exhibits. We had a great time. The wax museum was our favorite! While not all the celebrity wax figures looked like the actual people, some of them were really close. It was fun posing for pictures with our favorite characters from movies and even avengers and DC! Everyone should visit here! We had a blast! I will be back in January to check out the other 3 sections I didn't see this time around.....
