Creation Museum Reviews

Wonderfully put together museum that combines natural history, Bible history, and creation theory. Great exhibits and enjoyed the 4D theater. Price is a bit expensive but I got the combo pack which was a good deal which included the Ark Encounter, another great museum 40 minutes away south. Totally worth a visit but recommend to go off peak as it could get crowded and might be hard to fully enjoy everything.

Beautiful grounds, amazing museum.
We went in the off season and there was still a good amount of people around.
Some floors were a little confusing map-wise, but all in all amazing place to visit!

Visiting the creation museum, one of my favorite vacations- and i have traveled abroad. When you visit the creation, museum, make plans to also visit the arc encounter. This museum has excellent historical facts to support the Bible as true.
Even if you are a nonbeliever, this is a place to visit with your family and friends.
Look for lodging discounts in their website.
Purchase the 3 day pass to save money. We packed our own lunch for our visit at the creation museum. The Ark encounter has a good all you can eat buffet so we did not packed a lunch for that day.
The grounds are beautiful to take a Stroll and relax.
The zoo was closed during our visit but i hope to return to experience that. There is a zip line. And the prices are pretty fair.
We enjoyed every hour that we spent at the museum.

The last time we visited the Creation Museum was 10 years ago and we were amazed at how it's changed and grown! We brought friends with us and it was there first time. We all loved the vast amount of information and displays throughout the museum. Our favorite places was the Planetarium, the Zip Lines and the greenhouses! We've always wanted to ride the Ziplines and your guides were very helpful and made our experience that much more enjoyable! I was also impressed at how well you treat Veterans, I really appreciated it and it made my day very enjoyable, Thank You!

You have to pay to park. I recommend getting your tickets and parking in advance. If you are visiting the Ark encounter it doesn’t matter which you see first. The museum is a lot of walking and reading. Some interactive areas and a theater that shows short films. Small kids will be bored. There is a playground outside , a garden area, and a zip line too. Very informative but for the money I would just visit the ARK. Probably two hrs for the museum. Refreshments located in the front of the museum.

My son's family came with me for my birthday. We loved it!! I told all of my grown children that I would take their family. Everyone should see it!!

What an amazing venue. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. I was pleased with the well put together displays. If you are a Christian I'm certain you will love this place. My only nit is that they require you to pay for parking at their venus.

The museum offered interesting history of the Bible. I learned some things and liked most of what I saw. But...we would NEVER go back.
We wearied of the CONSTANT push to SAVE us TODAY!!!!! We believe the Bible and believe we ARE saved. We recognize others may not, so there may be a place for that, but to be constantly inundated with their MESSAGE in EVERY talk, etc was ridiculous and we felt as though we were being PREACHED to instead of informed about Creation vs Science/Natural views, which is why we visited from Arizona. We flew to Cincinnati just to visit the Ark and the Creation Museum. We would visit the Ark again, but never the Creation Museum. It was overwhelmingly preachy every where we turned. The special talks felt like a waste of our time, because they were more concerned about our salvation, than fingerprints or whatever the topic was supposed to be presented. Perhaps they should have a special area for folks to go that are concerned about their salvation.

My mom and I visited the creation museum on September 21, 2024. Much like the Ark Encounter the grounds were immaculate and beautiful. The gardens were gorgeous. The museum was very informative and well put together. Definitely a must see.

We visited the same day as the Ark Encounter. There is a lot of overlap, but this is a great visit for those who aren’t as familiar with the Old Testament as those who grew up in the church. I understood and knew a lot of the info but learned a lot more too. I liked the evolution vs. creation part to easily compare the differences. The 4D virtual video was near, but some of the effects (air blowing, chair shake) weren’t really relevant to the video we saw. It seemed like they were thrown in there just because. The only other aspect I wasn’t a huge fan of was the different audios in the different rooms/exhibits. You could hear multiple audios at the same time, and for me, it was really hard to hear, focus, and understand.

So much biblical information, in a very long exhibit posted on the walls for you to read. We found the arc information fascinating. The evolution portion was boring in its content. We grew fatigued quickly reading the many many exhibits. It is dark and very long. We loved it but grew tired. It just didn’t hold our interest. We’re sorry we did this.

My kids and I had a great time here! Very pleasant atmosphere and home for families or anyone. Super kind staff. Great exhibits. We, personally liked the ark better, but this was worth the effort.

We drove quite a ways to get here so we booked the Doubletree in Lawrenceburg, IN, which I wanted to mention here. This is a fantastic hotel. We walked outside to eat at Riverwalk restaurant. The food was great! But the service sucked.

We wandered around Lawrenceburg for a while this afternoon and found it to be a cold-spirited town that, in our opinion and observation, would love for tourists to not come to their town, ever, which is odd because it looks like it needs the money.

At Riverwatch, we watched the locals get stellar service and tourists get crap service. Truly some of the worst service I've had at a restaurant in a long time. I tried to be gracious and thanked them for great food and they looked at me like my kids and I should.not be there. That tone seems to be prevalent in Lawrenceburg.

Great hotel on the river in what first looked like a charming little town. Great food right out the door and down on the river. All of it minutes from Creation Museum. Perfect scenario for a town to generate revenue. But we will never be back to Lawrenceburg. My kids said to me as we walked out of Riverwatch, "Dad, there is something wrong with these people and this place. They don't want you here unless you live here." My kids have never said anything like that, but it is so obviois that even kids can pick up on it.

Wanted to write this review (my first ever on tripadvisor) to hopefully help others have a better experience than we have. Go to the Creation Museum, by all means, but if you want to contribute to a town, I'd recommend choosing a different town than Lawrenceburg, IN.

Beautiful place to visit. Very interesting reads about the Bible and how God created the world. 4D movies were fun. Lots of restaurants, gift shops, and snacks plus zip lines and a beautiful botanical garden.

I went out of curiosity, as I wanted to see the extent of the information that was being presented and how.
It is very thorough. If you believe in God, it will reinforce and strengthen your beliefs, if you don't, it will make arguments to convince you of the "truth" and give you a few chuckles at their attempts.
Good interactive displays. I didn't do any of the add on's. You could easily spend a full day here.
Was busy the week between Christmas and New Year's because school was out. I'm sure the gardens are lovely in warmer weather, not so much in Dec.

Creation Museum is an attraction owned and operated by the organization Answers in Genesis. It’s quite an attraction and worth a visit. Without getting too caught up in details, it promotes the idea of young earth creationism. Christians may encounter philosophical differences with other Christians, but the detail and effort put forth in constructing this "museum" is evident. On the downside, admission is somewhat pricey and the foodservice needs work.

Spent a few hours at the Creation museum and enjoyed it very much. Besides the displays there were also videos that we were able to go to. If you can't decide whether to go or not I say "GO". It's a wonderful experience.

Let's get the negatives out of the way: First, after paying a 50 dollar entry fee, I don't expect to be charged for parking or any exhibit inside the Museum. Second, these folks tout a strain of Christianity that doubts my belief in the Almighty if I fail to embrace a 6000-year-old Earth.
That said, the Creation Museum is a fine facility having much to offer. Upon passing the ticket booth, the visitor is welcomed by acres of beautiful gardens. Winding paths with bridges arching over water lilies invite you to slow down and enjoy this lovely world. If you want to go straight to the museum building, take the path to the left and walk maybe 300 yards. Wheelchairs and electric carts are available for rent.
The building's two stories cover a range of subjects. There's a sincere effort to attract children. One section is devoted to dragons, and dinosaurs abound. On the upper level, a 4D theater brings the Creation story to life. There's also a planetarium, but it costs extra. On the lower level, kids are invited to visit Doctor Crawley's Insectorium and Buddy Davis' Dino Den. All the exhibits are well done but need to be more hands on to appeal to most young 'uns. The only interactivities I see are touchscreens that allow you to select what you want to read.
One area shows the developing baby in the womb, another area displays precious stones, another discusses Noah's Ark. My favorite is the Borderlands gallery, in the lower level. This room has dioramas plus an array of touchscreens enabling me to read about different cultures during Jesus' time.
Food is available on both levels. Prices are high, quality is fair, the selection not great. At least there are free refills on the drinks. Of course both levels have gift shops. The upper level features goods by Third World artisans and is an exotic shopping experience.
You'll hear about a second attraction called the Ark Encounter, which is billed as the sister attraction to the Creation Museum. They are 40 miles apart, so visiting both in one day isn't practical. While there is no hotel on the premises, the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport is only 10 miles away. Several small towns in the area have lodging as well.
If you have to choose one facility, the Creation Museum offers a greater variety of subjects with less walking. If you want better food plus some interesting engineering, visit the Ark. Both provide detailed exhibits on the Bible.
The Young Earth evangelism gets awfully strident, but it's nothing that a little preparation can't handle. If we're to survive the Twenty-First Century, we need to hear different viewpoints without reaching for the pitchforks. The Creation Museum provides an opportunity for Junior to hone his critical thinking skills while enjoying the dragons.

This museum is truly unique, and a wonderful place to visit. The gardens out front are spectacular and it is so relaxing to walk through and see all the different plant species. I am amazed at all that has been added since our last trip in 2017. The special effects 4D theater was very nice, and the kids' outdoor play area was a nice addition. It's true that there is a lot of reading involved, and we purchased the "Creation Museum Signs" book so that we can use it at home to really read through all the information. We attended a very interesting talk about reptiles and honestly did not have enough time to experience all that the museum had to offer. Next time I will plan a full day for us to spend here.

Got there when it opened in the morning. It was so crowded, it was not enjoyable. You could hardly move or see the static exibits. Also, it's just a page turner. You move from one static display to the next. Again, hard to read the info when there are so many people moving in front of you. I recommend just picking up The Bible and reading.

The museum is a lot of reading and filled with accounts of the bible. It's a great place to learn more about the Lord. However; I thought it was a bit lacking in what I thought would be an emphasis on the creation count itself.

We spent about 4 hours here and the food options are lacking. They have a cafeteria but it did not look appealing for the price. We ultimately skipped eating there and found someplace else.

The lack of food made it a long day for the kids (ages 19, 17, 13, 11), especially the younger ones and it likely took away from their enjoyment. It was a long day for them. Wife and I really enjoyed it though.

The botanical garden is beautiful. The "zoo" is just a few animals. Can easily skip that.

Tuesday. We arrived around noon and didn't have much trouble finding parking. This place is very expensive for what you get. After paying $15 for parking, I paid $114 to do the Creation Museum and the Ark. And that was the 60+ admission rate! They really nickel and dime you at the Creation Museum. Want to go through the Butterfly House? That's $4. Want to see a 25-minute planetarium show? That's $10 for adults and $6 per child. However, there are a few free shows.

Overall, there's not that much purely on creation. The first room goes into the first six days, but the next thing you know you're in a temple out of the Holy Lands. There are several scenes of Adam & Eve naked (but covered) in Eden. You go through a small Ark section. There's a graphic section on the childbirth process. There's a room of mounted insects. There's a section on Christ.

You could spend a day and half here if you take it all in. (In fact, you can buy a $200 "bouncer pass" that allows you unlimited access to the Ark and the Creation Museum during one week. For us, even after reading a fair amount of the displays, we were done in an hour-and-a-half.

Let me add that I'm an evangelical Christian raised in a Southern Baptist church. I'm critical because I think of all the families and church groups spending hard-earned incomes and tithes to come here and being charged such high prices. Once you've been here, there's really no need to ever return.

We went just before my daughter’s 11th birthday since kids 10 and under are free this year. I think making young kids free encourages young families to come, and I think that is a mistake. This is not a kids museum. It is all reading and displays. My 14 year old loved it, she went off on her own and took it all in. My 10 year old who likes things that are more interactive and experiential was bored in 5 minutes. A lot of the info is very academic and scientific, so even if you have a kid willing to read it’s likely going to be over their heads. There is currently a dragon exhibit that my 14 year old loved.

They have some shows that are well done, like my daughter got to pet snakes and a lizard. The 4d movie was ok. It’s mostly a story of the Bible and the Gospel. If your kids have watched Superbook, IMO that is better. The 4d effects were minimal, nothing special. We did the planetarium show, and enjoyed it.

The botanical gardens are so beautiful and peaceful with the running water. There is a small petting zoo (goats, donkeys, alpacas) and a playground.

Very Young Earth focused, so be prepared for that.

IMO this is for teens and adults, not kids. I wish they would have more interactive displays that would engage younger kids. It takes at least 2+ hours to walk through if you stop and look at everything.

The creation museum has a story to share and tells it beautifully. The exhibits are wonderful, Biblical, and inspirational. There's a lot to see and read about, reinforced by videos, lectures, and shows. You can easily spend a day here and still want to come back again some day. There are botanical gardens and a small zoo (but the zoo at the Ark is really better). Gift shoos and dining choices round out the experience.

Plan on lots of time here is you want time to explore the museum, eat lunch, see the planetarium show and visit the gardens. There is plenty to see here. You may be doing lots of walking. Just doing a loop around the gardens is around a mile. It was fun to look for the dinosaurs sculptures hiding in the garden. One of my favorite parts was the robot Noah. When visitors chose a question from the computer pad, the robot would answer the question. There are several fun things to do which involve additional fees beyond museum admission. I thought the planetarium show was worth the extra cost. This presented astronomy from a Christian viewpoint without the Big Bang and billions of years of evolution. There are zip lines which are a significant price. I didn't try it, but the participants flying over the lake seemed to enjoy it. The Noah Cafe only had one vegetarian entree option: the Eden wrap with veggies and hummus. It was good. The group behind this museum also owns the Ark Encounter, so there is some overlap in themes.

The landscaped grounds are as amazing and inspirational as inside the museum. Walking from entrance to museum we passed a large area with green plants and steam rising up through it. Inside the museum was just as amazing. My favorite exhibit was Adam sitting with a large group of animals naming them. Highly recommend this place.

We really enjoyed our day at the Creation Museum. We recommend that you get there early and take the entire day to absorb the displays of the museum. We felt that there was much more to the museum than meets the eye. Many wonderful videos accompany the displays and text of the displays. We loved it.

My family’s visit to the Creation Museum was every bit of amazing. There is so much educational material and so many displays that you will need to make a day of your visit in order to not miss out on any of it. From the moment you enter the outdoor area on the walk to the indoor museum everything around you is breathtakingly beautiful. There are several gift shops with great souvenirs. There is a zip line outside of museum. There are also two restaurants with a variety of delicious food as well as a sweet shop. There are stroller and wheel chair rentals available. The staff were all very friendly and helpful with answering questions and helping guests find their way around.

We really enjoy the education you get when you tour here, and the grounds and facilities are well kept up. Been here many times.

What a great experience. The planetarium was great. The exhibits were wonderful. Great knowledge is given. A must see if you are in the area!!

My husband and I, teenage daughter, my mom and dad enjoyed our visit to the Creation Museum. We enjoyed reading all the details and watching the shows. We got to sit in on the live stream with Ken Ham and found it very interesting! So thankful for this ministry and their opportunity to spread the Gospel!
I do suggest they change 1 thing, for the sake of accuracy. In the dragon section, there is a panel on the wall that references snakes as "poisonous" instead of "venomous". I'm not picky about this myself, I know what they're trying to say, but I've noticed people in reptile groups are very particular about this.
The price of the gift shop was very reasonable and they had a great selection. We found the insect section very interesting. The baby and conception section was beautiful.

My family visited the Creation Museum for spring break. It’s an impressive facility and situated on a beautiful property. I enjoyed walking along the nature trail to the actual museum. When you enter, you are met with a challenge to be open-minded about the case for “dragons,” both from the Hebrew Scriptures and from folklore and legends. I was initially surprised to see this, and the museum makes a good case to consider that “dragons” are more than ancient cultural myths. I highly recommend watching the 4D video that explains (it’s very child-friendly too!).

After this we moseyed through the main exhibits. My favorite portion walked through the Bible, explaining how it is reliable and free from error. They did a wonderful job of supporting this through historical and archeological evidence. This exhibit alone is reason to visit. We also enjoyed the animal encounters, zoo, and incredible playground.

Moving on to the creation displays: The immersive walk through the creation and fall of man was wonderful. My children were able to walk through the story they know by heart. I loved seeing them recognize the people and events they hear about from the Bible.

My biggest positive was the messaging throughout every aspect of the museum: God is the creator, and we all need the gospel. Even the zookeepers wove the gospel into how they talked about the animals.

Now for the negative portion of the review: I knew going in that the Creation Museum is part of Answers in Genesis, a “new earth, literal 7-day creation” organization and expected to see this throughout the museum. Like I mentioned above, the natural beginning to your day is a challenge to be open-minded about dragons, using mythical legends in conjunction with obscure Bible references, but when it comes to science and scriptural interpretation, they are the ones who seem to struggle to be open-minded. I was frankly surprised with the museum’s one-sentence dismissals of other views within biblical Christianity without any interaction with their arguments. I also failed to find any honest linguistic work with the word “day” in Hebrew, which any Hebrew scholar will tell you has several meanings, not always a 24-hour period. In addition, they tend to dismiss scientific findings that interfere with their understanding without helping the audience to see their reasoning. To be perfectly honest, my impression was that the exhibits lacked humility and integrity by avoiding historical interpretations of the creation account, science, and Hebrew linguistics. This is of course an in-house debate between Christians who do believe God created and in the gospel. It seems this organization wants the audience to dogmatically accept their specific interpretation, never mind all the excellent discussions about the methods and timings of God’s creation. All these other views are simply conflated to lack of acceptance of biblical authority or the acceptance of evolution, none of which many other biblical models believe.

Do I regret going to the Creation Museum? No
Did leave saddened by the museum’s motives? Yes

Overall, I would still recommend anyone going. Just be aware of their cultish mentality as they aren’t shy about what they insist you believe.

This is an incredible museum. It has great displays and lots of good science to show creation and design. The bookstore is well stocked with books to answer any question a person might ever have regarding creation.

ok for adults but too much reading to occupy the kids. we had 3 to 7 year olds. they loved the dinosaurs at beginning and the petting zoo and playground outside but it wasn't worth the money for just that. So much reading. Thought we'd buy the book to read it at home but book has pictures at an angle so you can't read the signs. A lot was also covered at the Ark so we could have skipped the museum.

100% enjoyable the staff was grate I will go back again it Macke's the bible come to life I loved it I Learned about a lot of thing about the bible

Beautiful museum with an excellent execution on their message. High production quality of everything — the planetarium, 4d theatre, gardens, gifts shops, food, amenities. I was expecting to learn more about the Bible, but realized part way through the focus is the creation (hence the name). So there was a lot of content about Genesis, and a lot of time & resources invested in the literal interpretation of the 6 days and the Earth being 6,000 years old. Also a surprising focus on dinosaurs and dragons! We didn’t spend too much time reading the text on the dioramas, but there was a voice over throughout the exhibit, so we didn’t really need to. 4D theatre had some annoying air puff and strobe effects. Only thing I found offensive was a minor exhibit equating homosexuality to pornography. And some implication about the subordination of women. Otherwise, I found the museum open and interesting. They posited that God intended everyone to be vegetarian! We went on a Friday and had no issues seeing everything in 3 hours. I could see how if the museum was crowded it would take longer. Highly recommend for Christians, especially fundamentalists. Others caution that the focus is the literal creation theory, not other aspects of God, the Bible, or Christianity. Everything was expensive — $50 admission, $15 parking, $9 planetarium, $5 coffee or smoothie. But again, high quality, so probably worth it for like minded attendees.

God may have hardened pharaoh’s heart, but he turned my high school teacher’s brain to stone. She was the most egotistical, close-minded science teacher we had, which made her a perfect candidate to work here.

We used to take school trips to the Creation Museum every year, allowing us students a week of freedom from our usual uniform-enforced classes. We’d listen to absurd lectures on what Creationists think evolutionists actually think (spoiler: they make them sound as idiotic as humanly possible). I recall one specific speaker proposing that evolutionists think dinosaurs farting significantly contributed to their fiery demise.

Honestly, the onsite zip line was the only good part of the property and it’s not even in the museum; if you got lucky you could MAYBE land your spit on the roof. The creepy animatronics are quite apt for giving your children nightmares in time for Halloween as well. The restrooms are clean if you need to relieve yourself traveling across the state. Otherwise, make like Lot and don’t look back.

Learned a lot. Good speakers and great exhibits. I liked even better than Noah’s Ark. Spent 5 hours there and it kept my full attention

Exceptional museum on creation and Genesis. I love that there’s always a parallel between evidence interpreted with the world’s view vs. biblical view. There’s so much content to read and learn about. We spent the whole day going through the exhibits (just follow the map, it’s a one way, you start near the 4D theater and keep going through the exhibits on two floors). In between, you can plan to attend some of the free shows in the theater. Don’t hesitate to ask staff about their favorite exhibits and shows, they’re really helpful in guiding you and planning your visit. There is an extra show you can pay for (about 8-9$/person), well worth it if you have time, otherwise there’s plenty to see and do without the extras.
I love that there are cafes all over the museum, you will more than one on every floor, so you won’t go hungry. Food is healthy, cafeteria is clean and there are lots of options to choose from.
Overall a great visit! I would come back and I come from far. I recommend x 1000!
Also great gardens, if you come in November/December, they have it all lit up until 8:30pm, it’s beautiful.

This was our first trip to the Creation Museum. It was one of the best museums I’ve visited….the park, eating places, things for kids, zipline, layout, zoo, etc. were so clean and well-designed (it’s more than just a museum). The actual museum was incredible. Live presentations, 4D shows, videos throughout, planetarium, and two levels of progressive exhibits provided the reality of the Biblical creation. Undisputed scientific facts, tangible artifacts, and documented support through secular writings over the centuries were presented in a logical and understandable manner. It’s for the entire family.

This was NOTHING like I had imagined.
I wonder if non-Christians come to see this.

We did spend 3 hours here though.

The first third of the museum was completely "convincing" people to believe.
As Christians, I just didn't expect that.
There are literally plaques everywhere that side-by-side compare the evolution theory to the creation theory.

Then there was a walk through portion of Adam and Eve in the garden with animals. I guess that is what I expected the whole place to be.

It's VERY much a MUSEUM and there is TONS of reading to do, which we did not.

I also did not expect SO MANY DINOSAURS! If your kid is into dinosaurs, Christian or not, this is the place to visit!

There were two lecture halls with presentations that we did not do.

There was a man with a snake that was allowing kids to wrap it around their shoulders. My kids LOVED that!

There were animals outside, but that portion is a joke. SUPER DISAPPOINTING!

Our favorite parts were
1. The insect and butterfly exhibit. All dead, but preserved beautifully in MANY different shapes, sizes and colors. That alone is a reason to believe in God that he created such beautiful things!
2. The 4-D (included with admission price) videos. These are WELL WORTH the 18 and 10 minutes that they take to see.
My husband said, "Without those videos, the whole place would have been a wash."
3. The botanical gardens are indeed gorgeous!
4. Their is a section on human creation in the womb. If you are someone that favors ProChoice, you should avoid this section!
As long as you are ProLife, this section is VERY well done in my opinion and was neat to show our children how babies form in the womb. I especially enjoyed it since I am a Child Development educator.

Maybe if I had gone alone and had HOURS to read everything I would have enjoyed it more... but this is not a family excursion.

Great experience for the whole family. A wide range of experiences between the exhibits, movies and the grounds. Can easily spend a full day here. You may consider eating an early lunch on the way in. The cafeteria quickly hits capacity.

A top notch museum for Christians and those exploring Creation world views. Very complex walking tour with multiple exhibits, sit-down talks (we sat in on a T-Rex seminar), and lots of on screen presentations. Child friendly. Handicap accessible. Extensive grounds and gardens outside. Stiff fee for parking. This could easily be an all day tour.

As you’d expect, a total pile of twaddle!

Should be closed down as a purveyor of disinformation on an epic scale.

Tragic that this even exists.

My brother and I went here in August. The outside is beautiful I was taking so many pictures. They have a zip line over the pond. Gorgeous. 10/10. The inside is mostly signs to read and some dinosaurs. A lot of reading and kind of boring after awhile. I wouldn’t take anyone younger than 16.

My husband and I came to Kentucky to visit the Ark and purchased the Combo Ticket to visit the Creation Museum as well. It was really cool to see science/worldview vs the bible. I would recommend those who will be doing both this and the Ark, visit them on separate days. It's alot of walking, so it was nice to have a break between the two places.

Nice experience walking through this museum. Very informative information, displays, and videos. Can get a little crowded in the passages.

This is a must see! So informative! We spent the whole day and were never bored! The botanical garden area outside the museum is beautiful and relaxing. We did three if the 4D presentations-very enjoyable! The planetarium show was worth the extra cost! We would go back!

An amazing museum!! The displays were great and very educational. A must see along with the Ark Experience.

My wife and I had a great time at the Creation Museum. There were many very interesting, bible-centered displays to see and hear.

The gardens look like they would be amazing in the spring.
The aquarium was beautiful.
The movies were informative.
The exhibits were expertly created.

You can see the inside of the museum in 2 1/2 hours. If you get there later in the afternoon most of the people have already departed. If you get there early you will beat the crowds so your choice food is very expensive water is too

I expected more animation to the story of creation. There is a lot of reading. Personally I thought the presentation was a little too political. I am a believer and I know the story.

The grounds are BEAUTIFUL, SERENE and the information is incredible. I love the fact that they have really done their homework and they give the scientific view versus the Biblical truth. I would love to see them have a virtual reality of the Garden of Eden and more on Adam and Eve and the Garden before the fall of man. I would also like to see more of the biblical passages either in virtual reality of in more interactive viewing. The museum is really educational and I love the fact that they show all the dinosaurs and animals and how man could not have evolved from ape. I would also like to see more food choices on the grounds.

Making a special trip to see this and the Ark Encounter together was well worth our six-hour drive in each direction. Buying tickets for both the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter gave us a nice discount. Still, there were plenty of "ups" for special programs and activities that are not listed on the website. Overall this was the single best presentation I have seen anywhere of the evidence giving credibility to the Creation story and the Bible overall. A terrific family place.

Not all that impressed with this as an attraction. Some good exhibits and the gardens are beautiful but the majority of things to see are plaques on the walls. Would not recommend. Tons of walking in crowds. They do have electric scooters and wheelchairs for those that need them.

We took a bus trip to visit the Creation Museum. It was a well-planned museum with lots of exhibits featuring evolution vs. creationism. This museum is much bigger than it looks from the outside. If you have trouble walking, I would suggest a wheelchair or a scooter. There was a lot of reading at each piece of the exhibit. I think if I stopped to read everything, I would still be there wandering around. There were a bunch of school kids the day we visited. Many of them got in the way of the exhibits, so we couldn't read them anyway.

We paid an extra $9 to watch the show in the planetarium. I think it was worth it. There was also a 4D Theater. I didn't understand what most of the effects had to do with the actual movie we were watching.

The museum is nice. The grounds are beautiful. I highly recommend.

Like the Ark, you need to go prepared to overlook some of their hypothesis with which you may disagree. The grounds are beautiful and VERY clean! The exhibits are very well done.

My family visited and it was such a blessing. We also got to hear Ken Ham speak and he is very funny. Having a biblical worldview is so important. That is why it is so important to be grounded in the word of God. All the books of the bible are so important but I didn't realize how Genesis 1-11 is so so foundational to having a biblical worldview. The creation museum had amazing exhibits and amazing shows and presentations. This on the ark encounter are great places to visit for all ages.

This was one of the most interesting and enjoyable places we have visited. Every exhibit was so visually appealing and so well put together. Lots of my questions were answered with these beautiful and informative displays. I love the books that they sold featuring the information on display in the museum. This will be great for me to look at later in case I missed any information when reading. Especially loved the room with all the displays about the Romans during the latter days of Christ. Also loved how dinosaurs and dragons were

Enjoyed walking through the museum and learning more about our creation. Lots of walking but plenty of places to stop and sit for a minute. Very nice gift shop. We ate at Noah's Cafe. We had a hotdog, mac&cheese, and a brownie. Perfect for a quick bite. Enjoyed walking through the gardens. Very peaceful. Can't wait to bring the grandkids but would like to wait until they are older elementary age.

We attended the Creation Museum with our two children, ages 7 and 9. Prior to visiting this we had gone to the Arc Encounter. Our kids were apprehensive that they were going to be bored here like they were at the Arc. That was not the case! The Creation Museum had many areas that are interactive and interesting for kids. My son loved the Dino Den, all the dinosaur fossils and facts. Both of our kids loved the Insectorium! We broke up the museum tour and watched the movie in the Planetarium and 2 different videos in the 4-D theater. We all really enjoyed these movies! We also did a 1 hour zip line with our kids. They loved this and are hooked. We would all highly recommend the Creation Museum!

A wonderful museum. Just like the Ark Encounter, they've done an exceptional job designing the exhibits and outside landscaping . We really enjoyed learning about dinosaurs and humans. If you have to choose between Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter, I would choose the Ark.

We spent about 2.5 to 3 hours here and saw everything. It was worth it just for the dinosaur exhibits and the movies. We are really into dinosaurs. The gardens outside are beautiful and the petting zoo was fun for the kids (animals can be fed; machine takes quarters.) We bought a Combo ticket so we could see the Ark the next day. Parking is $15 at each place. Waiting in line is a bit tricky here; meaning, there is a long line for those who need to purchase tickets and then a mass of people gathered at the entrance gate who already have their tickets on their phone/in hand. The parking lot here opens 1 hour early, but the ticket booth does not open early, so lots of people were gathered at the same spot. Thankfully, they opened the entrance gate early and started scanning tickets to let us in, so that helped. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND buying your tickets in advance, otherwise, you'll have to wait in two separate lines. Those who waited in line for the ticket station to open to purchase there, had to walk around and get into the back of the line for the second line of people who already had their tickets. The long lines were probably due to so many people arriving early. It didn't seem overly crowded inside, although, the 4D movie filled up fast.

Learning new things I didn’t previously know. Also reinvigorating my brain to read fast! :0) Enjoyed the illustrations throughout facility!

My mom suggested I include this on the trip I took with my sister and 4 nephews ranging from 6 to 12 yrs old. Only the oldest got a little bit out of it. There were two 4D movies that were pretty good. We watched them back to back then started through the displays. The start was a ton of full wall plaque reading and everyone was jammed up trying to read. Very unpleasant. Once we got to the full size diorama section, there was only one interactive display where kids push a screen to ask Noah programmed questions and hear his response. The responses were a little lengthy. The tiny "zoo" has basic barn animals, but at least the goats could be petted. There's a small playground that little kids can be occupied on, but otherwise this is not a learning experience for littles. Good information and I like the comparison of biblical view vs humanist/world view. Overpriced for adults and for parking ($15). It's a good thing kids under 11 were free this year, otherwise I would have felt completely ripped off.

The museum had a lot of information. It's good for adults not so much for little kids. Its a good place for church groups. The gardens are expectacular. I would like to come back again.

I'll start by saying, I don't believe in any of this stuff and was just going to be a looky-loo. That being said, this museum was done MUCH better than the Ark Encounter and was much more enjoyable. I know it's been around longer and has had more time to get the kinks out so maybe that's why. I will echo the other reviews and say that once you've seen it, you don't need to return, and for the extremely expensive ticket price, you probably wouldn't want to anyway. We are talking major theme park pricing here.

For my "park hopper" pass it was $109 plus $15 parking at both museums. We did not do any of the add-ons because they were also very expensive. My friend had to rent a scooter which was $43.00 at both museums, you couldn't buy one pass for both museums so $86.00 total. Overall, just be prepared to spend a lot of money, I'm not sure how those families of 10+ were able to afford this trip.

The museum itself is small and you'll only need about an hour to see everything, the gardens are neat but it'll only take you about 30 minutes to go through them. I would say no more than 2-3 hours here max.

A lot of informative with some comparisons from the Bible and the secular world view. I love how it emphasizes Gods authority as the ultimate source of truth.
Scientific differences between creation and evolution which ultimately is the difference between Gods word and man’s word. I choose God🙏

Wonderful experience! It was busy and there is a lot of walking around, but they have numerous areas to sit. I enjoyed it, but think that it's somewhere I would go to again.

We came here after we saw the Ark Encounter. It was not as big as I thought it would be. My favorite part was the 4D movie experience. The grounds/gardens were absolutely gorgeous. There is a small zoo and plenty of areas to stop and rest.

We traveled with our 8 yr old and 3 month old. It was stroller friendly. If you see the ark Encounter you can walk from the parking lot to building at the creation museum unlike the ark. Parking was $15 for each location. There’s so much to see in the exhibits. We did not read as much as would have liked because of our children. Our son enjoyed the ark more because so much reading was over his head. Definitely not as ‘kid friendly’ as the ark.

We went here after The Ark Encounter, and this was a very informative exhibit but lots of reading, more so than the Ark. It was still a good exhibit but alot of in depth information, more than just Genesis and creation. Some of it was a little contradictory to the Ark Exhibit such as did they eat meat before the flood, which we saw they did not but then it would mention after the fall they did and then after the flood. That was minor. They do seem to focus on the dinosaurs alot too which, I guess I never really thought about much. The museum is well laid out, does have a small section of animals outside and nice gardens. Food is pricey but that's with all museums. This is one of those that once you've been there, probably dont need to go back. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

There are a lot of exhibits and shows, the place is kind of a maze over 2 stories. 3 theatres that I counted. The exhibit area is dark, can be kind of difficult to read information on exhibits. They contrast the scientific vs creationist view of creation. A lot of emphasis on dinosaurs, not sure why, perhaps to appeal to kids. Noah's Cafe restaurant was a bit of a disappointment, mostly prepackaged food, but no other choice on site. Had zip lining outside, not sure how that is relevant to telling the story of creation. A lot of the same material as Ark Encounter.

A group of 37 senior citizens visited the Creation Museum. It is a very educational and interesting visit. Thanks so much for making it possible.

We went to the Ark Encounter first so it was not going to go well for the CM since I was really underwhelmed. It was about a 2 hour tour and could be stretched out to 4 with all the movie options. Has a petting zoo and a small zip line. The 4 D show of the 6 days of creation was cool. This location offers an agenda…. As long as I understand the agenda then one can have a good stay.

This museum is tied to the Ark Experience and about 45 minutes north of Ark Encounter. If I had to choose between the 2, I would go to the Ark Encounter. If you are a big dinosaur and dragon fan, you will not be disappointed here. The cafe and food choices were a bit lacking. There was not the same experience as at the Ark encounter with the big buffet cafeteria. The same signage and explanations were at this museum. I especially liked the film about the artist that had his personal experience with his own questions about creation.

This was a nice experience. There are some things they teach that I would question, but all in all, they got most of it right. Highlights: Do NOT miss the planetarium! It costs extra, but we found it to be the best part of the entire experience! The 3-D movie was good, but flashing lights were annoying. There is a LOT to read, and since we did a lot of reading, it took us several hours to go through the museum. It was interesting, informative, some of it questionable, but good to see that they included the gospel story in their endeavor to bring the creation story alive. We grabbed a bite at the little cafe there at the museum... Noah's Cafe. It was quite over-priced for the amount of food you get. It was all quick serve and ready to pick up (no waiting for an order). The outside of the museum is beautiful with walkways along a pond and lush vegetation around it. There's a very small zoo on the grounds as well. If you get there early enough, they provide feed at a small cost so children can enjoy feeding the goats. It was a fun day!

This was a trip that our family had been wanting to take for some time now, but had to wait, because of the pandemic. It gives you two very different ways of understanding how it all began. Lots to read...a very informational museum. Be sure to check out the 4D movie, while you are there. You will be surprised by how real it is.

No shoddiness here! ALL the exhibits at the Creation Museum are first class. Creation & the fall of man in Genesis brought to life through great displays and explanations.
The Fearfully & Wonderfully Made exhibit is a beautiful biology lesson. The models are VERY detailed and show each stage of pregnancy from conception to birth. If you watch the screen showing the intricacies of birth and what happens during birth and right after, you can only stand in wonder at God's amazing design. NO way any of this happened by chance!
If you enjoy walking through botanical gardens then you will enjoy the ones here.
Please note, you do have to pay for parking so come prepared.
Well worth a visit.

Not for kids! This has nothing to keep the interest for children EXCEPT the planetarium. The planetarium is the first area after the “marketplace as you walk from the ticketing area. There is two ways to get to the museum area and both are a little walk from where you enter to purchase tickets. We didn’t realize this and didn’t bring umbrellas. Security is heavy and noticeable! Also, they had just raised their prices and the zoo was closed! Why not wait to raise prices after you reopen the zoo? The planetarium was neat we seen the creation show. You have a choice. One thing I didn’t particular like was the lady selling tickets told us to be there 20 mins early. So we had about an hour before the show. Only thing to do was go shopping in bookstore, then you would have to carry around your purchases all or or you could start the museum, we started the museum got almost through the first area and had to head back. There is no easy way that we found then turn around go against the flow of traffic to the beginning. We could have been there two minutes early and been ok. About half the auditorium was sold. Again we went on a slow day. I can’t imagine going on a packed day! The seats could be reclined back, except kids don’t have enough weight to do so. The 8 and 9 year old tried hard but couldn’t get the seats to stay back. Even the teens in front seem to have difficulty in keeping them reclined, the show was really good and make you really think! Best part of the museum by far! The entry is impressive with dinosaurs all over! Enter into an area that has a few benches to sit and a HUGE screen showing a really good movie that is worth a sit, this is where you will either lose your kids attention or find out if you will be able to enjoy the rest of the museum. Most are huge panels with really good information broken into evolution and creation facts. Adults may thoroughly enjoy this museum, but I find it hard to believe that any child that is not theologically advanced will enjoy or even allow their adults to enjoy the full extent. I cannot say it is worth the expense and parking costs! Maybe if I went by myself and stood to read every single panel. However, we went when it was not very crowded (Wednesday when local schools still in session) and still had problems with seeing everything. There were a few areas I would say hand on like in The insect area. However, two teens were the ones pressing all the buttons for an automated responses. The room was so small we could not even get in to stand and watch. They stood in front of what we wanted to see which was the butterflies. The food is HORRIBLE and Expensive! We had one chicken fingers with chips and milk, cheeseburger chips and milk, cheeseburger fries and soda and chicken sandwich fries and drink just under $80 and all COLD! Half got thrown away and the other half only eaten because we were starving! Overall this was a huge disappointment and what I would have called a total waste of time and money with children! We did go to the ark the next day and I would say that was worth going to!

The Creation Museum was excellent. Very informative and well put together. Teaching the creation of Man and the Earth lays the very foundation of a Christian Worldview and the Creation Museum did a superb job of this. Very modern, clean, and up-to-date museum with modern technology. I highly recommend visiting this important museum of Christian history.

**Pro Trip
Consider delaying your arrival for an hour or two after the museum opens, especially during vacation season to avoid the initial congestion.

The best part was the Botanical gardens. Such a variety of plants and arranged beautifully. Winding paths and foot bridges made it very interesting. We saw several birds and heard bullfrogs. Petting zoo, we liked feeding the llama.

Inside the museum, you need to immediately get a schedule of shows and plan around the times you want to see things. It would have been MUCH better if the speaker they have downstairs was offered in the afternoon, but they were only offered in the morning and then you need to go back upstairs to start looking at exhibits from the beginning. So you are going against traffic a lot to go up and down for things, which is a waste of time when you are only there one day.

We watched a 4d experience on the Creation, and it was a good show. It would have been better as 3D, because the 'kick you in the back' feeling was unnecessary. And the frequent puff of air in your face is too.

The planetarium is $15 extra, if interested in that.. get tickets early for seats, they get sold out hours ahead of time. We didnt get to do that.

The exhibits themselves were interesting. It was very heavily dinosaur oriented outside of the walk-through exhibit. But I imagine they are trying to keep kids interested and push the viewpoint that dinosaurs were at the time of Noah. We enjoyed looking at the walk through time from Creation to the Crucifixion. I would suggest taking your time through this.

The restaurant in the Museum was prepackaged, hot (chicken nuggets, hamburgers) to the left, and cold (wraps, sandwiches, salads) to the right. There was plenty of seating with a covered area outside too.

If you’re going to the Ark, go to the creation museum first. It’s anti climactic after you see the Ark, but the gardens and grounds are gorgeous!! Fun the pet the wallaby’s also

Absolutely amazing! We were expecting to like the Ark Encounter more, but found we enjoyed our time at the Creation Museum more. The top reason were the presentions offered at this museum. Do not miss these! They offered great insights and left you with new knowledge to consider. Our family spent the entire day here - arriving before it opened and staying until it closed. There is so much to see and do including the 4D theater and petting zoo. We visited in December and enjoyed the Christmas time events.

I enjoyed the Creation Museum. It was so educational and shows you a comparison of the world view vs the Biblical view of evolution and creation, among other things.

We spent 5 hours there and we could have spent many more, however, we were tired from spending 8 hours the day before at the Ark Encounter. Plus, the day we went to the Creation Museum, it was cold and rainy outside, so the place was very crowded as people wanted to find something inside to do. Despite the crowd, the place was run very well and the staff and customers were all friendly and polite.

Noah's Cafe provided delicious food and there were several options. We would definitely return to both the Creation Museum as well as the Ark Encounter. Next time, I might take it easy and put a day in between for relaxing though.

What a pleasant experience to view the time line of the earth thru the eyes of the Christian lens instead of secular humanistic view promoted in just about every museum. History is defined by 7 C's. From Creation to Consummation. Great exhibits. Makes a key point that both sides are exposed tu the same information but based on the belief system of the person, form their viewpoint. Well worth the price of admission. Consider buying the combo ticket with the ark encounter. Parking great could be reduced or eliminates to encourage more folks to attend.

We had a group of 11 and had a great time. So much information. I appreciated the security. It made us feel safe as soon as we walked in the door.

We all three as friends came 4 hours to see the ark and the creation museum.
We expected to see artifacts not copies. We had no idea that the planetarium was just a kids show so $9 for that then another $5 to be re introduced to a solar system we learned about as kids! Don’t waste the money on this!!!
The food at the Noah Cafe was like eating mediocre cafeteria food it was $18 for a burger and fries!!!
Lots of reading to do, zoo was closed it was just an ok visit.
A one and done is what we all three called it :( spent lots of money for such a let down.

This was our second visit to The Creation Museum and spent several hours looking at new exhibits and seeing others a second time. We heard two informative and interesting lectures - one about race and one about plants in the Bible. This is certainly a place that a person could visit over and over and continue to learn new things.

Simply put…Lovely!! Took us about 6 hrs. to complete our day there. Having said that, there’s no way possible a person can read all the information presented there in one day. (I’m not even sure it’s doable in 2 days.) Just go and take what you can from it, then go again some
other time to take away even
more. It’s worth every penny of admission. Clean, clean facilities too. My two 10-year-olds enjoyed the playground and zoo areas. The 3D movies were so good too! (We did not pay extra for the 4D films.) They were hanging Christmas lights in the garden. I bet it would be beautiful at that time of year.
My one complaint: gift shop and concessions are expensive. We didn’t buy anything because of it. The books can be bought cheaper online, and we took our own drinks and snacks in.

This was a wonderful experience! Even if you believe in evolution or don't believe in creation, you should go! It gives you great comfort that you will not get from this world. Check it out for yourself and see what you think. If you have a chance to hear Ken Ham, you should do so. He was there the day we were there, and it was a pleasure to hear what he had to say. The animatronics here were well done. You could even ask Noah questions, and he would answer you. We spent the better part of a day here. There were plenty of shows. I would recommend watching all that you can so check the schedule as soon as you get there so you don't miss any. Some were repeated during the day; others were only once while we were there. You can even look online before you go to see show times to plan your visit. I would also recommend eating here. The food was very reasonably priced, unlike many other entertainment venues. They didn't seem to overcharge for the food when they certainly could have.

Well worth the trip. Plenty of exhibits and very plain text to bring you into the bible base teaching, explaining Genesis and the beginning of the world. They have seminars to explain creation and the bible. Young kids would not enjoy it so much. There is a planetarium (additional charge)( we did not go in) There is a small free zoo on the grounds. Plan on spending a day at the Museum. We packed a lunch, so I am not sure of the restaurants or eateries at the museum.

This is a fabulous place for God fearing people to expand their minds and rejoice at the Almighty power of God!!!

I was by myself and still spent 9 hours here! The gardens outside were amazing to walk through! I went to a seminar detailing the facts and evidence of the flood/ark. The speaker clearly incorporated and presented the gospel at the end! The main exhibit, 7 C's walkthrough was good. At some times a lot of reading, so pick what interests you. The planetarium was also pretty cool. There are still more buildings/exhibits being built. I would be interested in going again when the new exhibits are ready for guests.

Much to see and absorb here. Make sure to take time for all that is available, especially the 4D theater show and planetarium. Beautiful landscaped gardens are worth exploring at a leisurely pace.

Interesting museum, learned many historical & scientific facts. Purchased combo ticket with Ark Encounter, additional parking cost here. Glad we went but felt more touristy than we expected. Everything is quite pricey

Quite interesting. The displays are well done, and offer a variety of experiences with a biblical view of creation.

Our grandson found the display on dragons quite interesting. The dinosaur displays were well done, as were the other exhibits.

The section on human development through birth was educational and very well done. The walk through the book of Genesis was also interesting.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

We toured the Ark on one day and went to the Creation Museum the next day. I LOVED the Ark. Compared to the Ark, the Creation Museum was just okay to me. (We were with a tour group and several in our group liked the Creation Museum better than the Ark.) The Creation Museum was very crowded the day we were there, so that could have been why I did not like it as much. I highly recommend the 4-D movie. I also recommend the "Created Cosmos" show in the Stargazer Planetarium. (You have to pay extra for it.) We also saw "Aliens: Fact or Fiction." It was a waste of time and money. I recommend that you walk around the pond outside of the museum. It is beautiful.

I recently visited the Creation Museum with my family. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The museum itself was well-laid out and visually beautiful. I was really impressed with how many exhibits they were able to fit into the space. I did not, however, feel like things were crammed into it. I love to learn about God and the Bible and this was a great environment to do that in. This is a must visit for all Christians who want to deepen their faith journey.

Fantastic museum. Great experience for families with kids of all ages. Two parks within 45 mins of each other. Creation museum offers zip lining, beautiful gardens, picnic areas, children playground. Live presentation throughout the day, all focusing on the biblical world view. Food was not over priced. Staff was very helpful. Parking was easy.

I’m glad we stopped since it was on our way to The Ark Encounter.

Lots of reading so I would suggest buying a digital copy of the signs through Amazon or a hard copy through Barns and Noble.

However, if i had to recommend one or the other - it would be The Ark Encounter.

We visited The Creation Museum today and overall had an enjoyable time. The *grounds were stunning*, and **The Conservatory was absolutely breathtaking**—hands down my favorite part of the visit. I thought I had large houseplants… turns out mine are pint-sized compared to the giants they’ve cultivated there!

Before entering the main museum, we explored some exhibits on dinosaurs and dragons, which was an unexpected twist and definitely sparked curiosity. The first section of the museum wasn't quite my cup of tea—crowds of people gathered around large posters with lengthy explanations and Bible stories made it a bit difficult to take everything in.

That said, the second half really won me over. The detailed dioramas brought out my inner third grader in the best way possible. We also enjoyed the animal encounters—fun and engaging for all ages. The short films were cute and well done, offering a nice break during the day.

Parking was simple and stress-free. I only tried an oatmeal raisin cookie while there (which hit the spot), while the girls had coffee and seemed to enjoy it.

All in all, the day had its highs and lows, but it ended on a high note—with lush greenery, playful animals, and a good cookie.

This is a wonderful place! Great for familys! We were surrounded by kind and gracious people whether they were staff or fellow visitors. The displays were top notch and even though we had been here before we still learned a great deal about the the origin of our world.

They're making it snow at this place! After every dollar I am afraid. Plus things weren't all open, poor signage, mostly indifferent staff, and a terrible experience really. Others recommended it and liked it but found that it was not so good. If you know your Bible but want to enjoy a similar experience just do the Ark Encounter as it was stellar!! Dissapointing and wish I had more favorable remarks but I have to inspect the fruit on this one.

A well researched museum with a lot of reading along the way. It may be too much for young children as the reading can be overwhelming. My husband and I wish we had not had our kids with us and we then could have spent more time inside

It was so so good to take my grandsons through it. We could study about dinosaurs and not have to correct the literature. Creation and Biblical theology was good to be surrounded by as well as the comparison between worldly theories and Biblical. The garden was a wonderful place to stretch our legs and get air! We loved it and will return if possible for our 3 rd visit. We’ll worth the time and money

We were definitely excited to get the chance to visit the creation museum. They have so much information inside the museum including a planetarium & a 4d movie. They also had a zip line, petting zoo, koi fish pond, plus much more. This is great for groups, families anyone who is interested in learning more about God and his plans for our lives.

We loved this museum. My husband said it is the best natural history museum he’s been to. We loved seeing both perspectives on creation and hope to visit again in the future.

Very educational and based on Bible not opinions. Plan to spend the day. The place will make you think through your beliefs.

We visited the Creation Museum recently. The museum is based on a Christian view that takes the book of Genesis at face value and defends the idea of God creating the universe in six literal days. The staff at the museum were very helpful and friendly. The museum is very well done. It includes displays, specimens, lectures, audio-visual presentations, animatronics, gardens, and live animals. It is a mix of scientific data and some speculation of how the Bible’s account of creation is consist with scientific data (certainly not with the current scientific consensus on origins). It can be a little pricey. The admission fee is pretty standard, but the cafeteria prices were pretty high. There is an interesting bookstore and gift shop. It is an interesting place that appeals primarily to Christians.

We brought our youngest son here when he was seven now he is seventeen and graduating our family had a pleasant time together this trip this place has a lot of things that coincide with my personal beliefs and what our family has shared together

A wonderful family or individual trec to learn about our earliest history in the world. We could have spent 3 days here.
The museum is very professionally done. First class accommodations and beautiful grounds area.

This place is amazing! Lots of interactive exhibits. Fearfully and wonderfully made was the best; everyone should walk through this atleast once. The planetarium was impressive and extremely educational. The food was great. The 4D movies were beautiful. Highly recommend this trip.

The best part of the Creation Museum for me was the 4D movies. I also got a lot out of the displays that talked about evolution vs creation and the repercussions of what sin introduced. There is considerable reading to this museum, however. More visual, interactive displays would have heightened the experience. My son is an entomologist, so the bug room was pretty fun. I would like to see a visual display where a flood can lay down a substantial impact in a short amount of time. This is here, but what I mean is where we see an aquarium or something actually move earth creating mountains and canyons. The explanation of Mt. St. Helens was good.

This well thought out museum forthrightly and unashamedly declares the glory of God. Geared towards ALL of Gods people, both believers and unbelievers, it lays out the case that God is real, divine, just, kind and a life-giver. The displays are well thought out, and the signs updated. The new welcome center is wonderful, and the walk from the welcome center to the museum is like walking through the Garden of Eden. The food was not bad, with both hot and cold options. Prices were very reasonable, and they did not gouge you at the gift store. This cannot be fully explored in one day. If you want to see the sister museum, Ark Encounter, I recommend you see the Creation Museum first.

We went 3 yrs ago. With friends and had to take our 15 and 13 yr. old grandkids along with our son to see this before they got too old. My granddaughter kept saying, this is soo good! This is amazing! I was so excited to see them reading everything and interacting with everything. They really explain everything so nicely and give you ALL the information you need to know the truth. We will be taking our other grandchildren as they grow up.

Very educational visit to the Creation Museum with four generations of family members. Ages 12 through 79. We spent an entire day and did not see everything offered. There is a significant amount of reading necessary but so worth the time. Although we are all fairly well educated on creation, we all learned something new.
The facility was well cared for. The displays were professional. The staff was friendly and helpful.
There is food available onsite. About average in quality. Priced as you would expect for a tourist attraction.
This is a good addition to the Ark Encounter.

Really enjoyed the museum but would have liked more interaction with actual people. There was a lot of interesting information, but you have to read it all. Enjoyed the 4D movie. Only reason to reduce a star is $15 parking. That’s a little steep.

What a lot of nonsense this is. It's a money pit to attract the foolishly gullible. They believe that the earth is only 6000 years old, that dinosaurs went on the ark and that fossils were created by Noah's flood collapsing mountains on dinosaurs. Ask them if they understand why bananas and home sapiens have 50% the same DNA.

My family’s visit to the Creation Museum was every bit of amazing. There is so much educational material and so many displays that you will need to make a day of your visit in order to not miss out on any of it. From the moment you enter the outdoor area on the walk to the indoor museum everything around you is breathtakingly beautiful. There are several gift shops with great souvenirs. There is a zip line outside of museum. There are also two restaurants with a variety of delicious food as well as a sweet shop. There are stroller and wheel chair rentals available. The staff were all very friendly and helpful with answering questions and helping guests find their way around.

Everyone should see this! I went in conjunction with the Ark encounter. However, I liked this better! It makes you think and is very informative!

It was a strikingly beautiful setting. I was impressed that everything was so well taken care of. There is so much information to take it. If you have littles I recommend the $2 activity guides available. My 6 year old was engaged with mazes, puzzles, and checklists while Mom, Dad, and siblings had more patience to read.

Seeing Creation Museum & Ark Encounter in 2-3 days is a MUST. Thank you to Anna R who represented both companies very well by providing guidance on local hotels, restaurants and sights to see! Because I'm a travel agent she also provided group booking details and suggestions. One classy lady that knows how to market the place she respects and loves! We had a great time in KY and will be returning with a group!

If you would like to ponder or learn about Christian creation visit the Kentucky Creation museum. The museum is well worth the price. You can spend many hours walking the site. There is a great amount of reading, but you can breeze over the reading and enjoy the displays. I would recommend you sit through the overview presentation. Take some time to read the museum map to know the sections of rooms. We enjoyed food on site, but maybe not the fudge. Bring a water bottle. Review the presentation schedules and be a bit early to sit down. It's a great way to break up all the walking. There are outside areas to sit and view the Beauty of nature. Would recommend for older middle school children and above. Their animal section is like a farmers zoo. It was a delightful day of entertainment.

This museum is extremely rare in that it offers a Biblical interpretation of creation and compares it to the scientific view. It is good for Christians and non-Christians who want to see a presentation of creation without being told “just read the Bible.” There are people who don’t believe science is totally accurate and want another perspective. It has very good displays and has a lot of research backing it up.

Great experience. Glad we went. Friendly, helpful staff. Informative lectures. Grounds are absolutely beautiful. So peaceful. Lots of beautiful birds. Soothing music. Heads up there’s a lot of reading in the exhibits. Can get crowded. We just paced ourselves. Enjoyed seeing Bible come to life/visual representation.

They offered free admission to military here & Ark Encounter on 4th July—check for other holidays. We stayed Comfort Inn in Indiana near museum, but would recommend staying in Florence, Ky halfway between two museums. Lot of newer hotels, restaurants, etc. Plus less driving.

It cost $4 for soda, but that’s the way it is at theaters, concerts, etc. so no complaints. I didn’t find it commercialized at all. If you wanted to buy something, you could. If not, nobody was pressuring/encouraging you to do so. Overall, a great experience!

The dioramas are great and the walk through the Garden of Eden is beautiful. Also some great displays about linking the Bible to archaeological and historical sources.

Not convinced of Ken Ham's theories about the flood, age of the earth, etc. - they are interesting but often theories are displayed as facts. If they were clear about what is established fact and what is hypothesized, it would have been great.

It was raining so we just did the museum building but would have liked to see the gardens. The landscaping along the walk to the building was beautiful!!

The entire experience was wonderful. You will be tempted to take a million pictures. By the combo book package that shows the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. Thank me once you get it. You'll be happy.

The Museum does a great job of repeating over covering areas that references the Ark.

I thought we'd be in the Museum for about 2 hours. Four to 5 hours should've been my thought. The sections were well-compartmentalized yet smoothly integrated with one another.

I don't know if I had a "favorite" section.

I took a lot of pictures. I will come back and update this post so that you can see some of them.

The gardens are absolutely beautiful and the museum is very informative. It’s well planned out for flow and not excessive crowds like the Ark Encounter. Water fountains would be a great plus for families rather than paying for individual bottled waters. Food & drink expense was a bit much on top of admission.

Was a wonderful experience and so full of information. Price was right, just wish I went when the gardens were in bloom.

Excellent museum. So many exhibits have been updated since we were here five years ago. We brought a group of both teenagers and senior adults - both groups loved it.

With so many exhibits and shows/talks, AND a beautiful walkway carefully landscaped with lovely trees, flowers, plants, water features, etc., we are glad we spent two days rather than one to visit the Creation Museum! It is SO amazing to learn about the universe, nature, animals, people, etc.... very informative, inspiring, and awe-causing! It is great to learn so much detail and to see it in animation or action or depicted in models. The planetarium show was worth the extra money as well, though it was not very long it was excellent we thought. Unfortunately we did not get to see the zoo part since it was under construction. But still worth going 2 days!

Great for research for my books. The 4D shows were great. The gospel presentation is so clear. So much more to see it requires a full day or two partial days. Lots outdoors as well, although I won't be doing a zip line, but that's just me. If you don't have time to read everything then, snap a picture of it and read later. Our friends who speak only Spanish used a translator app and enjoyed it a lot. Worth the money. Encourages your faith; it is not unreasonable to believe the Bible.

This museum is amazing. The staff are always helpful and ready to help. The best time to visit is during the Christmas season to see all the amazing lights.

Dinosaurs pushed way too much for our liking. Lots of "science" stuff. Zoo very small and smelly. Many extra charges for exhibits and adventures after regular ticket price and parking. Seemed more like a Dinosaur theme park rather than a religious experience. Very disappointing considering the cost.

loads of fun and very educational. Enjoyed all the exhibits and shows. Loved walking through the gardens, tons of great pictures. Zip-lining was great too!

Outside of the museum, there's a very nice kids' play park that our children thoroughly enjoyed, as well as a small "zoo" with a variety of animals to see and touch. There is also a very nice garden area with a large variety of trees, flowers, and bridges.
Inside the museum, there is so much wonderful information to digest, as well as awesome displays. The gift shop has tons of great books, stuffed animals, and various trinkets/coffee mugs/ etc.

I am a study of Creation, Dragons, the Ark…all of that!
Read everything!
They have a Thagomizer!!!
Buy Fudge!
Lots of reading to do. Decent amount of walking.
Pay for the Planetarium!!!
Buy a “commuter cup”. You can refill it anywhere!
We had lunch at the Palm Cafe.
Personal pizzas were good.

A very educational place. This museum offers an alternative take on how the Earth came to be versus secular museums. And lets face it, after the last 3 years, I think we have found out the secular eggheads aren't as smart as they think they are. So I think it's good to keep an open mind and hear what another perspective has to say.

The facility is top notch, beautiful gardens, and attentive staff. It's also very commercialized but I didn't feel the prices for food and gift shop items were crazy.

BUT there is a lot of reading. So if you think you are going to bring a 5 year old here and have them be engaged, that's not gonna happen unless you are filling out their Mensa application right now.

I think you are reading this and thinking, all museums have a lot of reading. No, you don't understand. This place probably allowed the print shop that made poster boards to buy a new boat. Everything is a poster with text. It's all interesting, but if it's busy, you will just LOVE waiting for everyone to move so you can read some more. I did like that you could walk around with a cup of coffee. Probably because the poster board is water proof.

It's a very cerebral experience. You are inside Ken Ham's mind and learning from his perspective. Which is pretty cool, if you are into that sort of thing. A good drinking...errr....I mean party game is to go into the gift shop and see which books are by or forwarded by Ken Ham. Actually, maybe find the book that isn't by him because you would be 3 sheets to the wind.

The 4d theater was pretty good. The planetarium was good too, but skip the aliens presentation unless you are into annoying cartoon aliens. Let me save you the time, there could be life on other planets but probably not. There, you have experienced the aliens planetarium presentation.

The zoo at the creation museum is ehh. If you need to kill some time you can walk through there. It's kind of like that neighbor you have that is really into animals with a little nicer fence.

Favorite exhibits - the Egyptian looking room with screens describing biblical characters.
Borderland exhibit - very cool.
Miracle of life exhibit - good.
Outdoor gardens - really well maintained. I wish they were bigger. Good photo op opportunity.

Parts were truly amazing.But must say the first half is reading of plaques. And the area is very crowded. The best area was the Creation section. I recommen if you planning to visit the Creation Museum and The Art Encounter go to the Creation Museum FIRST. And if you only have time to visit just one, It NEEDS TO BE THE ARK ENCOUNTER.

Outstanding!!! You warmed this old man’s heart. Thank you. We can’t wait to come back in a year or two and see what you’ve added. This is a powerful tool telling Biblical truth and straight factual information wrapped in balanced common sense!

Our church small group (Sunday School Class) took a 3 day trip to see the Creation Museum today and the Ark Encounter tomorrow. Even though the Creation Museum (outside of Cincinnati) and the Ark Encounter (across the State line in Williamstown, KY) they are partners in teaching God’s Word. The Creation Museum is a Scientific and Biblical approach to creation and the timeline explanation. The comparisons with creation and evolution in a visual sense is so powerful! The teaching method is easy to grasp and fun to learn. The exhibits, planetarium, movies, gift shops and cafe Exhibits, and movies were very educational. The cafe (great reasonably priced tasty food) and gift shops (full of unexpected gems). This museum is well done!

What an amazing place. This has so much reading and absorbing to do. I was so glad we did this one before the Ark Encounter. We learned so much and had some
interesting discussions based on what we saw and learned. We sat through a couple of 4D shows and also a great documentary.Oh, yeh....the fudge, is totally worth it.
Finished with an outdoor time, which was beautiful. The gardens, flowers, trees are beautiful.

I have to give credit to artistic creativity of this museum. Is that why admission charge is so high?

Great place and very informative. It is a lot of walking but the speakers and exhibits are top notch.

Our group had a lot of fun and learned so much. The exhibits are interesting, clean and varied, and the gardens are simply stunning.

Very interesting exabits but very difficult to read details for many people taking pictures with cell phones you couldn't get close to read the information. $15.00 parking fee is not appropriate in my opinion and should be lowered or even free.

Our entire family had a wonderful time here. We spent 2 hours there but really should’ve spent more as we didn’t experience all that it had to offer. The exhibits were interesting and so informative. There is so much to see. I will return again. This is a must see.

The only con I am going to mention is the $15 for parking. Also, you can get a slight discount by bundling with the Ark Encounter, which I would highly recommend. I would not, however, get the three day pass, as neither attraction needs a full day, IMO. Exceptions to this might be if you chose to read every word on every sign, had kids that wanted to spend a lot of time on the playground or wanted to add the virtual reality shows and do zip lines.

The staff was very pleasant. We never met a grumpy employee. There are many bathrooms, and all are spotless. The planetarium show was very well done. The exhibits are visually appealing. We also liked the small zoo, conservatory and little path through the botanical gardens. The Palm Restaurant was closed for the season, but take a peek at it, anyway. It’s unique. Don’t miss the displays that branch off the Palm Restaurant. We enjoyed the unborn child exhibit and the insect exhibit in particular. The upstairs cafe is more reasonably priced than the buffet restaurant at the Ark Encounter, as you can just pick what you want to eat. There are some good healthy options, too.

Extremely well done historical timeline and displays. The outdoor gardens are incredibly beautiful. And zip lining over the lake looks like a lot of fun! We would highly recommend.

This was a wonderful experience. There is so much to see. I highly recommend going. I learned so much. At the end of our tour we enjoyed an amazing concert by their house band.

Very interesting exhibits. Great artistic presentation.
Not necessarily educational, as it seems to be based on opinion and a narrow point of view rather than fact .
Went to a wonderful presentation on Plants in the Bible.
Gorgeous gardens on the site.
Was super crowded and difficult to get to see the exhibits.

Creation museum has a ton of info that needs to be read, not really a kid friendly place, like the Ark. It’s premise is great, but it’s a bit of info overload while trying to read and process with people all around you. The museum is too small for the amount of people that they are processing through. The entrance to the museum was quite chaotic and disorganized, but there was a lot of security and all the staff were very friendly. Be prepared also, you are not only paying to enter, but you are charged an extra $15 for parking. It is not an inexpensive outing for a family.

This was an awesome experience. They had everything from Adam and Eve to dinosaurs and Jesus. The garden and zoo were nice too

Perhaps if we had done this before the ark we would have enjoyed it more, but this was a letdown. Unlike the ark, there's no real effort made to explain why they believe genesis is literally true - the thesis is simply that science must be wrong becuase the bible is by definition correct. Some of the dioramas are pretty funny (Adam with a penguin, someone playing with a squirrel and small dinosaurs), but that's about it. Given a choice, I would recommend a trip only to the ark rather than the combo ticket we purchased.

Plan on a full day minimum to see everything. Wear good walking shoes. Restrooms and helpful staff are plentiful. Graphics, live animal shows, little zoo, cafe, ice cream,fudge, awesome dinosaur exhibits. Very gospel forward. Loved the 4d movies. So much to enjoy and see. Conveniently located gift and bookstores onsite. Loved the entire experience including the bus to and from parking area.

This was our third day after seeing the ark encounter. Creation museum was created first before the ark. So there is a lot of duplication of presentation. But still wonderfully done. Again as in the ark, lots and lots of reading. As I stated in the ark encounter this is really for adults. Although there were children there were times children were bored and they were times where some older children like 12 and up may have read or watch the videos. Most of the children if not all we're so well-behaved. A group of summer camp kids came through who were very loud but they were doing school work or whatever cuz they had to answer questions on their paperwork so you know talking to each other whatever but other than that they were more middle school high school kids. They must go to a Bible camp or something because they knew they had to fill out all this papers and questions and answers. The museum was very informative but after seeing the ark I felt like I'm not sure that I needed to see both. But I'm glad I did. Again the gardens were phenomenal just like the ark. The museum is in the process of building a zoo so they're expanding. A small zoo. If your questioning you can get a lot of your answers here as well as the ark. I appreciate all that they did to enlighten those who need it. As in the ark they have amazing displays lifelike just robots etc which I forgot to mention in my review of the ark. The one 4D show we watched was great it reminded me of a Disney 3D movie where you feel the air, your chair shakes, it was great.

Sunday we drove in from Dry Ridge and ate breakfast along the way. We arrived a little early needing a bathroom. We were not allowed to enter the building and no outdoor bathroom was available. The young man at the door was very disrespectful. I am a 65 yr old woman and I was told it was my fault because I arrived 15 minutes early. When allowed to enter I spoke to the “manager”. He was not helpful either, no compassion for the needs of older people. Not a very Christian attitude.
The grounds were beautiful but the museum was over crowded; which made it too hot to enjoy and completely unable to read all of the information.
In conclusion, you need to make sure your employees are trained to have compassion with Christ-like attitudes and provide outdoor toilets.

Our visit to the Creation Museum was a great experience. I escorted a bus to visit the site and everyone enjoyed it. The Old and New Testaments were tastefully laid out, the exhibits were developed with great attention to detail. The staff was so very friendly and helpful. I don't see how anyone could visit this museum and leave not having a clearer understanding of the Gospel.

I was so looking forward to the Creation Museum after seeing the Ark Encounter. It was a let down in a way. It wasn't the museum but it was very crowded. You couldn't read because you was always in someone's way. Maybe when it's less crowded I would enjoy it more. But I do love the museum for what it's trying to do!!

This place is amazing other than they NEED SITTING AREAS! The food was excellent and there were many good gift shops! Buy the SIGNS books for the Ark Adventure and Borderland bc theres too much to read. It takes a full fay to enjoy this place and worth it!

This was a wonderful history of our Christian faith. This is geared for people that enjoy reading. Younger kids would be bored. This museum reaffirms what I believe in and the reasons why! A true highlight that helped kickstart my desire to read my Bible more! The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful. Buy you tickets and parking before you go it will definitely save you time!

Recommend the Ark over the museum. Our family visited both on our way home from Kentucky. I wasn’t impressed with the museum. We purchased the three day pass. I should have purchased a one day ticket for the Ark and skipped the museum.

The museum is laid out in excellent order. They have done a great job of showing all about creation and using science to back it up. They even showed with science how Darwin was wrong. We took in a talk by Dr Ham while we were there and enjoyed it very much. He is an excellent speaker.

Way too much reading for us. We had just visited the ark encounter on the previous day so we found the messages redundant. Same creationist theories, proposed as fact. I too am a creationist but humble enough to admit that there are unknowns. Planetarium and 4D show seemed dated and too self assured about their specific slant on creationism. It is however a beautiful setting in an eden like garden environment.

Such an amazing museum!!! So exceptionally done! We enjoyed to absolutely beautiful landscaping and ponds, all the exhibits and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Our coffee and ice cream were great and very fairly priced.

We did this with combo package with Ark Encounter.
Firstly, the place is more congested and with crowds it must be a nightmare.
Secondly, restaurant is not as good as Ark Encounter. (And. Yes, this is important) However, the weather was so nice that we could eat outside on the porch!
What is excellent is the exhibits, (however, too close for comfort for being too close to other people). The walkways are narrow and it gets hard to read the walls being jostled. I especially love how you can ask Noah questions and the Ark build time lapse, along with the biblical and scriptural truth about evolution and mathematical calculation of earth and the video (didn’t get to planetarium) was very nice. The bookstore was pretty extensive, and if you are a fudge fan- its delicious! The zoo is small and so is playground, but walking around the lake and feeding fish and ducks will make kids happy.

Outstanding and presented in an excellent easy to understand manner . Lots of information to read and displays , some of which were animated. Would highly recommend . A dual ticket is great value and allows access to the Noah Ark exhibition. Please note that the two museums are 45 minutes apart.

We loved learning so much about creation and the difference between biblical views and worldly views on creation verses evolution.

We learned SO MUCH at the creation museum, but it was a hard slog and a long day. LOTS of reading, pondering, thinking through of ideas--new (to us) and old. We are good students and like to learn, especially apologetics, but this might not be everyone's cup of tea. Still, this museum is very well done on a somewhat difficult topic. And the gardens between the parking lot and the museum are extraordinary! I wondered if the planners wanted guests to think they are in the Garden of Eden. It almost fooled us. :-)

What a fabulous place to visit! So very well done and so much to see. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely would recommend.

The Creation museum is an evangelical outreach of "answers in Genesis" designed to promote the gospel message through interactive exhibits and presentations.

Although parking is $15.00 it is on site and easy to get back to your car if you need to get to it. The external grounds hosts botanical gardens with walkways, bridges, and a pergola for great photo taking opportunities. Zip lines are also there for an additional fee along with a small zoo, and picnic grounds.

Inside the main building are exhibits relating to dragons, dinosaurs, as well as 4D movies and live presentations. The permanent exhibition authenticates the validity of the Bible and then you go on a walk through the pages of Genesis leading up to Christ.

There is extensive reading all over. I found it best to highlight what I wanted to capture and take pictures of things that I could read on my own time. There is a cafe on site called Noah's cafe featuring mostly grab and go and some hot menu items. There are two bookstores where you can purchase almost anything you can think of from research materials to clothing.

There is also someone who takes your picture for purchase near the main atrium. The main atrium alone is spectacular with a fossil mammoth, and interactive pond scene with real fish in the water.

Time did not permit me to finish our visit. There is so much to see and do here. Plan your day using the daily schedule and work in whatever you can.

Cellular reception is bad inside. WiFi isn't the greatest either. All in all I was pleased with my visit and hope to return soon to see the parts I missed first time around.

A sight to behold!

Sixty thousand square feet full of exhibits that attempt to defend book of ghost stories as truth. If you understand the scientific method/process, you will be offended. Prepare to see dinosaurs depicted with humans and the perpetuation that the earth is only 6000 years old.

But if you're in the area, the spectacle is probably worth seeing! Be prepared to pay A LOT to endure the indoctrination.

This was great. I think tho it's more an adult attraction. A lot of reading, our 8 year old was a little bored. But we loved it. The only problem we had was the ticketing and parking. The attendants should be taught/informed about all the different tickets available. We had the ultimate bouncer and we had to pay for parking. They refund3ed us but we had to waste time at a few different places and they really didn't know what to do with us. Finally, at the Ark Encounter a clerk knew what to so, on our 3rd day ! Otherwise everything was really wonderful. Very friendly helpful clerks, the whole thing was very clean and organized. Loved it. As with gift shots, the gifts were kind of pricey but that's how it goes. Would go back for sure!!! We were one whole day in the museum! Could use two days.

Sooooo expensive for what there is to see. Plan to do a lot of reading. If you are a fairly mature Christian, you probably won't learn anything. Nothing that's included in your admission price is worth the $40 fee. If you bring the kids, plan to drop additional fees for the attractions they'll favor. The only thing I was impressed with was the 4D theater showing a 23 minute movie.

I didn't buy any gifts or food. However, the single scoop ice cream cone cost me almost $6.

Also, it costs $10 to park. The grounds are absolutely beautiful.

We attended this museum with our two adult sons. It was great experience for all of us. We took our time and saw all the displays. Yes, it is a lot of reading but there are also programs and movies you can see to break it up. They do over do the dinosaur thing

meh....pretty boring walking around just reading giant posters of information. Hard sell to "go here first" before seeing the Ark (which was wayyy better) and Disney-like cross-selling between the two venues...watch a movie here promoting the other attraction, gift shops, etc. I would not recommend and would not go back. And I thought this place was close to the Ark, and it is not.

It was a good experience. There is a lot of reading involved, so lots of learning is available. I appreciate the effort to share the creation story in an interactive way. There were interesting lectures which I recommend attending. I’m glad I was able to visit this museum. I don’t recommend it for small children if you plan on staying for more than a quick tour. It’s definitely more for teens and adults.

Exceptionally well done. Faith-bolstering and inspiring! I was very impressed. A museum displaying the truth and being honest with the facts.

You are not going to wang to miss this. We did a half day and should have stayed longer but we crammed the ark and this into the same day. It worked out for us but spend plenty of time here. The restaurants are so wonderfully themed. We loved the animatronic and visuals. The thoughtful development is really neat. The animals section isn't all that but I should have spent longer reading all the great details inside.

The Creation Museum is an excellent Museum in every way. It is educational, informative, very high quality, clean, and jam packed with entertaining things to look at and learn from.
The Garden you walk through to get to the Musuem is beautiful, like you are really walking through the Garden of Eden. As a Midwesterner visiting Kentucky in the summer, it did feel a little exotic which was fun.

However, there are a few things I would like to see added to the Museum. We spent 6 hours at the museum exploring all the exhibitions and educational material. Only 3 minutes of material mentioned anything about the Roman Catholic Church (Which has existed for 2000 years), and if it did it was refuting it reluctantly.

Considering the Museum makes many staunch claims that the Earth is roughly 6000 years old(Which I do agree with), to largely ignore 1500-2000 years of church history doesn't make a lot of sense. Yes, there are many historical references outside the bible that are used. However there is virtually 0 mention of the Roman Catholics church role in the recording of the Creation Narrative. Something which the Catholic church has believed in for nearly 2000 years. So to completely ignore them as being clear products of the Catholic church is strange. Isn't the whole point of this museum to prove constantly the truth that we have known since the beginning of time? There are dozens of Early Church fathers in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd centuries that accurately put the biblical creation date around 6000 years from the present day. Despite Catholics making up 50% of all Christians, this is clearly meant for an Evangelical audience.

The name of this whole Operation is called "Answers in Genesis". Obviously it is focused on the first book of the bible. A more accurate name should be "The Biblical Origins of the Universe to the Present", because that is the entire focus for the most part. The Bible, The Bible, The Bible, The Bible, The Bible, and a little bit more Bible to finish it off. The Museum is an Evangelicals Paradise.

I do not say these things to talk poorly about the museum. It is an excellent museum and I would go again if I had the opportunity. It's just more of a bible museum then anything else. The creation is just used as its focus point. I would love to see how the Church, made up of Christians since the death of Christ to the present day has influenced these ideas. Not just what the bible says about it.

The Creation Museum is a biblical walk-through museum. There are many displays to stop by inside as well as a beautiful garden outside! There is a zoo with of course unique animals and birds. There are workshops inside the museum and outside for all ages. The workshops are a great hands-on experience for all.

This was our second time visiting, although it had been over 10 years since our first visit.

Things to keep in mind:
Parking is $15 yes.
Most of the actual museum is reading. (surprisingly, my kids enjoyed all the facts and reading more when they were younger than now as almost adults). Last time, we spent 2 1/2 hours walking though, this time I think we spent less than one hour in the actual museum part. We did skip quite a bit of the reading simply because we are SO familiar with it all (we knew and had read all the info from their books and various products over the years.)
I still suggest planning to spend a whole day here, especially if the weather is good enough to enjoy the outside grounds and zoo area. Also if you are new to the Creation account and Answers In Gensis, you will want to read all the info!

There is SO much to look at and take in! Also keep in mind - since it's plaques and displays you are reading, it DOES take time when it's busy. You have to be patient taking turns to read and move through.

We went during the holidays and the outside lights were beautiful!! We enjoyed walking around the grounds as it got dark.

The food area was crowded but still didn't take very long. It was cafeteria style with typical food - hamburgers, chicken strips, fries, salad, soup, chips... Prices were a bit high as is typical for attractions. But all the food was very good!

I highly recommend buying tickets for any extra shows you want (like the planetarium) as soon as you get there. It did not have a lot of seating and seemed to sell out quickly. There were plenty of speakers/shows though that weren't extra and were included in your admission.

If you are also visiting the Ark, I highly recommend the bouncer pass that allows a third day at either place.

I appreciated that they sold books of the Signs from both the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter so I could read any later that I missed - although, FYI, they aren't ALL included in the books. I bought the Ark one specifically for 3-4 signs I wanted the info off of and none were in the book. So I should have taken pics of those plaques myself. Oh well.

I think BOTH museums are a MUST for all Christian families, especially to take kids to! But even us adults who grew up in public school have a lot of non-biblical and even unscientific beliefs embedded in our heads. It's awesome to have this resource proclaiming the authority of Genesis and that science actually backs it up!

BEST MUSEUM EVER along with the ark encounter!!!!
Faith -Based amazing displays
stunning visuals and animatronics
Elegant gardens outside

Well done. Highly recommend listening to the speakers when they’re scheduled. Ken Ham among others were excellent. Very compelling presentations.

We visited with our young children (2,5 & 7) and a lot of people here in the reviews say it’s not for young children but we had a great experience. Bring a good stroller for kids to rest and take breaks. We also prepared our children to listen and learn rather than be entertained and they soaked in quite a bit. While I would have loved to have had more time to read everything, I think my husband and I were still able to read most everything we wanted to.

My daughter had so many questions on the life of Christ exhibit and ended up going through it twice. She told us later that she prayed to God that she was a sinner and please save her while she was looking at the lake of fire and the new Jerusalem paintings side by side. I never imagined what a profound eternal impact this trip would have for us.

Also, the grounds were beautiful. The 4d videos were a huge highlight and the six days of creation was powerful. The kids loved the insect exhibit and personally I loved the fearfully and wonderfully made exhibit. Also the exhibit about the people in the Bible and the life of Christ. So well done and moving.

I loved the creation museum exhibits the best between the museum and the ark but we ended up spending our 3rd day back at the ark because of the playground/carousel/zoo being a little bit bigger there, plus the kids just loved the ark.

What an amazing stay!

We spent 4 hours a the museum and didn't see everything, we are elderly and were tired. Some of the displays were great, but others were just average. There is a lot of reading and walking. The petting zoo was sparsely populated, which was a disappointment. The gardens looked very nice. Overall will probably go back in a couple of years to see if there any improvements. One last thing it was very expensive.

This museum attempts to create a narrative to fit its parent organizations view of physical science and world history. Included in the bombardment religious dogma is a reptile demonstration. This lecture about snakes was unprofessional, misrepresentative, missed the most important issues concerning reptiles, misguided audience members, and is potentially dangerous. The speaker over simplified reptile tail degloving as a gift from God where "the tail regrows while another creature has a snack." In reality degloving is painful and often results in agonizing drawn out-death instead of a new tail. This is not a dilemma that should be covered casually in an entertainment show. And it definitely does not sound like a gift to any creature. This habit of playing 'fast and loose' with facts brings into question the premise of the entire message presented at this museum. The speaker encouraged the audience to buy exoctic reptiles at controversial reptile shows. Exoctics do not belong in the homes of untrained yet enthusiastic people. Reptiles can live decades, need very expensive habitats, and require specialized husbandry training to live healthy lives. The only warning the irresponsible speaker gave was 'don't buy a reticulated python,' after dazzling the audience with a human bred unnatural morph snake. The speaker rubbed a milk snake on his face and wrapped an employee with numerous snakes around her neck encouraging these audience members to risk contact with salmonella bacteria and painful facial bites. There was not one word about the beneficial roles of reptiles in nature. These snakes and turtles were handled without regard to animal safety and long term health. Common sense dictates that snakes are always held with two points of contact, not raise turtles off a horizontal position to demonstrate a visual of the plastron, and continually unfurl snakes like a dog's leash. (all of which the speaker performed casually without regard to basic animal handling protocol) The information presented was at the very least incomplete and misguided. At worst it is potentially harmful to animals and humans, contributes to abuses of the criminal exoctic pet trade, and ignores conservation. During this presentation these precious gifts are mistreated daily, audiences deceived at almost every turn, and teachings manipulated to fit a storyline.

It was an informative museum. A little too informative for us. Lots of Bible character write ups in crowded spots. My 8 year old said her brain hurt. 😂 It would be nice if you could schedule private tours otherwise with it being crowded like it was today you won’t be able to read a lot. The best part for our kids ages 8-12, was the playground and petting zoo. If you find yourself hungry the chicken fingers are good. It was nice to visit once but wouldn’t return.

We had a fantastic experience at the Creation Museum! The website gives you a great overview of all there is to do, but I thought it would be helpful to share a few things.

*This is a place for middle & high schoolers and older. It’s a museum - not a theme park. Your little kids will get bored quick. Go with the intention to read, look, learn, go slow, and soak things in. The exhibits are incredibly well done. The movies (free) and planetarium (costs extra) were awesome! Our four teens (19, 17, and 14 year old twins) had a blast on the zip lines (cost extra).

*I would recommend making a loose plan for your day before coming & check their calendar of events the night before. We were there from opening to about 6:30pm & didn’t get it all in. You might want to plan around the movies, chats & planetarium times to make sure you can do them all if you want.

*The food was affordable, but just ok taste wise. Upstairs was grill food & downstairs was Italian theme (pizza, sandwiches, etc). Drinks are refillable the entire day if you purchase one or you can buy a souvenir cup for $20 & it’s refillable all day, at both the Museum & Ark. The ice creams & coffees looked yummy!

*We did the Creation Museum one day & Ark Encounter the next day. Definitely one day for each place - don’t try to do both in the same day.

Cannot say enough good things! So faith building and interesting for both us & our teens!

I absolutely loved it! Great exhibits. So much to see and learn. Such realistic displays. It was crowded but we had no problem getting around. Plenty of places to sit and take a break. Definitely want to go back!

My husband and I enjoyed the museum, however it is a lot of reading. If you have children or teens they will get bored quick in the museum itself. The outdoor garden was very beautiful and a delightful experience. There is a children's play area that the kids will enjoy. Teens and adventure seekers will enjoy the zipline and rope climb but this is for extra $$. I think the cheapest adventure was $30. Overall a good experience for adults who have never experienced or read the Bible. If you are a Christian this may seem over commercialized as there is a large gift store and at the end of some of the presentations there is a push to buy the books that they were presenting.

We spent over 3 hours touring this venue including the planetarium, an informative seminar, and numerous displays . It compliments the Ark Adventure that we visited one day earlier. Recommend seeing both.

Great experience and true to God's Word. Well laid out and easy to follow as you go through the museum. Handicap accessible. Movies in the theater are very well done.

There is great information that is very well displayed at this Museum, but I would recommend buying one of Ken Ham's books rather than going to the Museum because the amount reading from the walls is daunting to the point of exhausting. If you have children who are more engaged by life-sized, three-dimensional displays, then go to the museum but build in some breaks to your day.

Very interesting, would recommend visiting on a weekday. We didn't arrive until 11:00 and had plenty of time to see everything we wanted to see at the museum. One of us had to use an electric scooter and it was very tight and crowded for that option. If you can manage to walk it would be better as there are numerous places to sit and take a break.

Eat before you go! We went to the cafe and selected a prepackaged cheeseburger and chicken salad wrap. My husband ate his cheeseburger minus half the bun but did not enjoy it. I did not even eat my chicken wrap, it was that bad.
We thought it was a little confusing to figure out where to go. At the Ark Adventure you sort of have a route to follow. This was allot of walking. We were disappointed the planetarium was an extra charge.

We just went here and found it very interesting and informative. There was something for everyone, young and old, and those in-between. Much to see, in fact we spent about 6 hours there. It is a 75,000 square foot museum containing many displays and information as well as a friendly staff. Included in the price of an admission ticket are state-of-the-art carefully crafted displays, a petting zoo, and botanical gardens.

We loved the world class exhibits! Everything is done with excellence! Check out the live speakers at the Legacy Hall. Highly encourage the tours. My family and I had a fabulous time. Get the bouncer ticket if you can so you can thoroughly enjoy every part of this beautifully landscaped sanctuary. We also did the zip-lining which was breathtaking! We came from Southern California for my 39th birthday and it was worth the trip. I can't wait to go back.

Great place to visit to learn about Creationism. I loved everything there! There are so many areas to see and read. It was a wonderful time to see the dinosaurs, read about how God created the universe. A must-to-see!

Enjoyed this museum more then the Ark. Be sure to take your time as there is a lot to read, the museum brings the book of Genesis to life. We watch several great videos the first one really bring the First chapter of Genesis to life - beautiful. Was expecting a little more from the botanical gardens but was peaceful and nice. Lots of cool (live) birds. Very small zoo - hopefully they will expand on that.

This museum is comprehensive in detailing the story of the creation. Everything is well laid out and understandable. The price was fair. It takes almost four hours to visit all the exhibits. It is well worth the visit.

Excellent science, sound theology, great presentation. Well-run.

You will see people of all ages here- from infants and toddlers to elderly.

If you are serious about learning how Mr. Noah built an arc and God spared the human race and the animals, this experience will make it seem plausible. Not only visibly, but the science behind animal classification.

One realizes the hope Noah had in being to look up and see blue sky via the third floor of the arc.

For me at least, it became clear how there was a point in history where dinosaurs lived at the same time as man and how animal "kinds" produced the incredible variety of animals we observe today.

We enjoyed the Virtual Flood experience, more like a Disney theme ride, and it may make you a little nauseous. The added charge, about $15, was worth it. There was a delay and wait for this ride- 15 minutes+.

The only thing that was lacking was the food. We did not find it very tasty or interesting, and it was slightly expensive. There was a Mexican food trailer, announced by one of the ushers, but it turned out to be closed indefinitely.

I would recommend bringing a sack lunch and eating at one of the beautiful spots on the grounds and eating a second meal by commuting for a good meal, lunch and/or dinner, e.g. to Florence, Kentucky about 25 minutes away.

Tickets, parking and queues were all handled smoothly. Employees were professional.

It's like walking through the Bible. Each exhibit explains the journey the person in the Bible lived through with detail.

This was a Mother/Daughter trip to The Creation Museum and it was an amazing experience. The exhibits were beautiful and very informative. We completed the tour in two hours. Highly recommend!

While the place is welcoming, and the staff was extremely kind and hospitable. this is not a natural history museum. This is a Christian Mythology amusement park.
The pseudo-science behind the exhibits has been refuted by qualified experts.
Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution is one of the most solid theories in science, yet this amusement park ridicules it.
They show Humans and Dinosaurs coexisting. They didn't.
They claim the world is 6,000 years old. It isn't. It's closer to 3 billion years old.
They just want your money. They don't care about facts or science.

A learning experience about creation from the Bible perspective. Could have taken days to read all the things to read. Take time to see some of the shows/informational presentations they offer - and go when it's not so cold so you can enjoy the gardens, the animal zoo, the botanical center, etc.

The Ark is a very impressive sight. We enjoyed all the events. Food was good. Lots of gifts to choose from. We would definitely visit again.

The Museum is very interesting and display are beautiful. It shows the creation of earth both in a biblical and a wordly. Lots of very interesting facts. Also has a zoo. I especially liked the garden of Eden displays.

It cost $50/person to get in, $15 to park, and then the gift shops are littered with Mr. Ham's books. It didn't appear to be centered on the Bible but more about this guy making bank on his museum, his parking and his books (tons of them). I left wondering whether he was trying to spread the Word about creation or take advantage as a get rich off others.

Great family vacation. Everyone his friendly, guests and staff alike. Really helps in teaching children and young adults the beginning of time and helps them understand creation over evolution.

There is so much to see and so much to read about. This will challenge some thoughts and validate others. This is great for the person who wants to learn, see the stars and experience natural science. Seniors will enjoy this. Families will as well. Plan for at least 2 days here.

The grounds are extraordinary. Beautiful landscaping, cool bridges and quiet streams. Just walking from the parking lot to the actual museum building, was relaxing and enjoyable.
There is currently an exhibit about dragons and their place in history.
The museum itself is amazing. So much to see and learn about. There is a 23 minute, 4D movie experience that takes you through the creation. Complete with flashes of lightning, gusts of wind and shaking seats.
There are lots of dinosaurs and explanations about their place in relation with man. There is a wing that highlights specific Bible figures (Joseph, Rahab, David, Hezekiah, Daniel & Jesus) and historical evidence pertaining to each.
There is the animatronic “Dr. Crawly’s Insectorium.” A large display of beetles, butterflies, moths, walking sticks, etc. and an interactive-animatronic scientist who explains all things relating to insects.
One great section is, “Israel in Jesus Time.” An entire section that explains different people groups (money types, clothes, social status), city layout and different religious sects.
There are so many other things to see and experience.
So many other great areas to see le

Not only was the artistic artwork in each exhibit MAGNIFICENT, but were educational and an EXCELLENT place for families (young and old) to be learn about the things public schools around the world seem to lack. They cover "observational" and "historical" science. Geology, Astronomy, Paleontology, Biology, Archeology, Radiometric Dating Facts, Carbon-14 Facts, Reliable Dating Methods, etc. It also walks you through Biblical Facts and how the truth of how & why the world has evolved into the state it is in currently.

There are also some fun outdoor family friendly activities, a 4D theater show and a Planetarium. I'd certainly recommend to families who want to grow, learn and a wonderful time out together.

The Creation Museum is a beautiful walk through the Bible. There are a lot of things to see and read as you walk around. Wear comfortable shoes. You will learn all about both viewpoints of Creationism compare to Evolutionism.
We paid to see the movie about Aliens: Truth or Fiction. It was entertaining, but I am not sure it was worth the price. We also attended the FREE 4 D movie about the Biblical account of Creation. That was excellent. Some people complained about it being too loud, but I am hard of hearing so it was just right for me.
The walk through the gardens is beautiful.
The cafe serves sandwiches, sides, and drinks. Just outside the cafe is an ice cream stand which serves delicious choices.
There are several gift shops to browse.
You get a discount if you buy a combo ticket for both the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum.
During our visit to this area, we stayed at the Baymont by Windham in Florence, KY, which is 30 to 40 miles away from each museum, a very comfortable and affordable 3 star motel. We also visited the Florence Antique Mall which is very large, all on one level with lots of variety.
I recommend both museums, which is a visual, multi-stimulatory walk through the Bible.

Awesome and will definitely go back. Lots of biblical information that coincides with scientific findings. Expect to pay $15 for parking though.

This is done by the same people as the Ark Encounter. It’s very well done. Quality construction. good use of technology. Enjoyed the singing group and gardens.
I felt they pushed dinosaurs too hard. It’s fine if you believe they roamed the earth 6000 years ago but don’t make it a theme of your museum when you can mention them and then focus on what matters - Jesus.

There are a lot of exhibits, but a lot of reading to explain things. A great deal of things to see here. Very informative and interesting, especially for people of faith. I would recommend this to anyone.

It was well done. Remember it is a museum with a lot of reading and not a lot for little children. I would recommend for young teens and up, those who are interested in history. They had a cafeteria style lunch that was pretty good and reasonably priced. If we go again, we will not be bringing our younger grandchildren. It was 96 and we could not play on the playground or enjoy the animals.

They claim that it is kid friendly, but kids don’t interact with anything and aren’t allowed. Good for a young adults and adults and that’s about it. But still really isn’t worth that kind of money even the animal encounters. They have to stay on the sidewalks during the hottest part of the day when the animals don’t come near. If they wanna share the gospel with people, I would make it free since they make their money off of the Ark encounter really.

The Creation Museum was great. It exceeded our expectations. Very well done. Allow at least three hours. We were fortunate to get to hear Ken Ham speak while we were there. This is one of the few places you can learn the truth about how the earth was formed and not just “scientific” theories that don’t hold up to careful scrutiny. It does seem kind of silly to have to pay a pretty hefty entry fee and then have to pay for parking. I’m glad most other businesses/organizations don’t charge me to park to do business with them. I guess they do it because they can. We paid it!

Great attitudes and helpful people.

Facilities are in great shape.

Our kid's and us enjoyed all the shows and exhibits.

Great place to learn non fictional science, as well as, proven recoded and documented history.

It is difficult to describe this place in such a short space. The design, property layout, info presentations, etc were clearly well thought out. The amount of information and the way it is displayed is really outstanding. True, everything is presented in a Biblical sense - but it is very well done. You should plan at least 4 hours here to really see an dread everything.

This “museum” is a slick, high-tech reinforcement of the Genesis story of creation. They supposedly have an answer for every question you might have. They insist the world is only 6,000 years old, and man did not evolve from any other animal. God created him separately. Oh, and dinosaurs got on the Ark with Noah.

LONG REVIEW
I want to start this review off by saying that I am a 100% saved by grace born again Christian. I believe in the inerrancy of Scripture and that God's Word is infallible. So this review is not coming from a secular point of view. In saying that, I was quite disappointed with the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. First off it was very expensive even with a discount. I am no stranger to paying for vacations and how much they can cost. However my husband and I both felt that there was alot of nickel and diming going on. You have to pay for parking and it isn't cheap. It was about 15$ each time. Also so many of the activities were an extra cost on top of what you already pay to go into the museums. I have been to many places previously and have had way more included with my ticket price than I had at these museums. I feel like as a Christian organization that you would want to make the pricing more accessible so that more people could come and learn about God's Word. I also did not feel like the staff was overly friendly. Some of them seemed to get annoyed at being asked questions. I understand that children may ask alot of questions but I feel like especially at a place like these museums that they should want to answer the questions children have. I definitely would not recommend these museums to people with small children. I really expected both museums to be more interactive so that children could really get involved but there were very few interactive activities. Honestly you can get through both museums in one day so unless you are visiting the area around the museums I wouldn't recommend getting a multi-day ticket. Each museum took about 1-2 hours max to get through. We will honestly, most likely not be coming back. It was very underwhelming and not at all worth the money that it cost or the travel to get there. You can learn more watching their youtube channel honeslty. I know this review is long but I hope that it can help if you are considering visiting either museum!

I LOVE it very much. Very interesting at museum. I enjoyed to look and read all. Wow! No boring! It is a MUST to visit it. Period!

I don't think I am the audience for this, but I'm not sure who is. There is a significant focus on dinosaurs, and comparing evolution and Christianity. They make black and white arguments, which I'm not sure will drive anyone to 'change their mind'. At any rate, it is a bit of a maze, and there are speakers and brief films along with the exhibits. Many of the exhibits are impressive in their presentation, but do require a lot of reading vs. more interactive tools.

The zoo was closed the day we were there, and the gardens were just starting to bloom and were very pretty and pleasant.

Better than the Ark encounter, interactive displays, still too much about dinosaurs.
But interesting , nice areas to walk through and the animal areas are nice , still too much commercialism for books , trinkets and food ( five dollars for a cookie ) plus four to tour a butterfly garden.

The detail this museum puts in to explaining how the world came about, even including opposing views, is so incredible as well as educational. I’ve learned more about God in a deeper way just by visiting!

First, this is truly not a museum for small children. It has a petting zoo and dinosaurs but also a lot of information that is scientific. Kids stuff to adult stuff I'd say was 70/30.

The museum is a partner to the Ark Encounter which is about 45 minutes away. Realize before you go that both locations are designed by Ken Hamm, author, teacher and apologist that believes in the "young earth" theory, that the earth is only around 5,500 years old. Because of his viewpoint, dinosaurs are EVERYWHERE in this museum as well as the Ark Encounter due to Hamm attempting to dispel archeological science claims of the dating of fossils. Hamm theorizes that dinosaurs lived with humans and were on the Ark. Much of what you will see in both locations defend that position.

I personally don't believe that but I respect that he does. I did have a problem with him integrating dinosaurs into almost every aspect of the exhibits through both locations. Instead of the museum being a museum, it's more of a physical representation of what Ken believes along with his defense against evolutionists. It is also used to evangelizes the message of the Gospel which is great but much of what was present was campy and catered to those who are not Christians, even though the majority of people that come are already believers.

Overall it was entertaining but I felt like it was weak in some areas and disorganized in others. My recommendation for families is to reconsider spending the money for admission if your child is under 10.

Possibly the worst designed museum I have ever visited (and we go to a LOT of museums). There’s WAY too much info trying to be presented in a WAY too poorly planned sequence (the sheer volume of information is the only reason I even gave it a 2 instead of a 1) in too small a space. The intended path of viewing is too narrow with many choke points where a person on a motorized chair has to stop, back up and make a multi-point turns, causing even MORE BACKUPS. There is too much presented at individual stations, which caused even MORE BACKUPS if there were slow readers in front of you. Some displays even offered the abilities to scroll through multiple sub-screens. MORE BACKUPS and delays. There were large screens that pictured biblical persons that really only morphed through minor changes of expression or posture. Visitors were inclined to stand and watch for more elaborate animations that didn’t happen. MORE BACKUPS. We actually gave up in frustration about halfway through.

I was expecting a very heavy-handed Creationist presentation and I wasn’t disappointed. But while the Creationist point of view was presented by brilliant and erudite biblical scholars, the counterpoint position seemed to be argued by people who did well in high school level science classes.

I will give it high marks for the modeling, though.

This is a comprehensive learning experience to offload your erroneous suppositions. They show you how brainwashed the general population has become, embracing total claptrap about our origins. The atheist community fought them, in order to stop their truth teaching. Now I know why!

Very thought provoking experience. We are firm believers, so this challenged us to wonder how others don’t see it.
Unfortunately, those thoughts won’t prevail as I’m somewhat bitter about having to pay $15 for parking. I get it, there’s expense involved. But we got a combination ticket, $85 per person to enter the Creation Museum & the Ark Encounter - my struggle is we had to pay $15 at each parking lot.
Would have been nice if we could have been given a pass leaving the first location, to allow free parking at the second.

This museum is exceptional and well done. It is biblical based and provides both scientific and biblical references to support their position. It is well balanced in it's presentations and not over the top in the stance they are taking. Very entertaining for people of all ages and is truly a family attraction. Would highly recommend this as a family vacation destination.

The tour of the creation museum was interesting, however, not enough glorification of God and our savior, Jesus. Too much dinosaurs, dinosaurs, dinosaurs. No pictures of God, crosses or Jesus in the gift shop. This became too materialistic and did not feature our Creator.

We visited the ark the previous day. This tied it all together. Very informational. It may have changed my way of viewing the timeliness and the Bible. Great exhibits, great information. I would go here again. Lots of walking so be prepared. Great place for kids.

We went to visit in June 2024. We got to explore the main museum, but the zoo area was closed for construction. It is a very nice facility with educational displays and talks/shows that you should spread over 2 days of visiting if you want to see it all. There is also a zip-line/ropes course there, which wasn't in operation the day we were there. They do offer a military discount for the entrance fee but not off any merchandise purchased. Glad we took the time to go here.

take your time and enjoy...lots to read...hope to go again when it's not so busy- there is a lot to explore. food on site for anyone that needs a break... good shopping also

Wish I could give this an additional half star (to be 4.5 out of 5), because our visit was almost perfect (so a 4 doesn’t do it justice). We enjoyed the talks and the overwhelming incorporation and presentation of the Gospel message throughout the exhibits. Amen!

However, there seemed to be an overemphasis on dinosaurs throughout the museum that made aspects of the visit feel gimmicky- almost as if it were something they felt was needed to keep the kiddos’ attention. The existence of dinosaurs is also a topic that many Christians/Christian parents have conflicting views on, so it would have been helpful for them to present a talk or include an exhibit that made a solid Biblical case for them so visitors could have something to consider/work through with their children. Instead, the museum seems to lead with a presupposition of their existence and talk around the topic such that those who may not believe or understand just had to accept their word for it. Not sure I was comfortable with that. (Sure, Job speaks of the “behemoth”, but does that confirm that such a creature was a t-rex, for example? Just saying, I wish someone or an exhibit was available to better explain how they reached their conclusions.

The half point deduction was also for the food options available. Other than the inexplicable dinosaurs and the limited food choices, the overall experience was great!

We went to the Creation Museum after seeing the Ark and some of the information was repeated in the Creation museum. Also, as a Christian, some information we already knew, however for a new Christian or those with questioning family members it would be an excellent place to take them. The story of Adam and Eve was well done, and they did have some additional information about the Arc that was interesting. My whole family loved the dragon exhibit, and the planetarium was well worth the extra money to see it. They had cool rocks too which my rock collected kid really enjoyed. The insect exhibit was gross and fascinating at the same time. The grounds were spacious but it was not Springtime yet so nothing was blooming. The kids loved the suspension bridges though. All in all it was a solid 4 stars and when they add more exhibits I would definitely go back.

What a beautiful place. The grounds are spectacular. We enjoyed leisurely walking through the gardens. The museum was very informative. The display were very lifelike.

This place had a lot information but not much to actually look at. Which is what we enjoy about “ museums”. It required you to read ALOT. So I think most of it was lost on our teenage grandchildren especially. It was a great learning source but not what I woukd call a museum. I was looking forward to some great conversations about the subject with my grandchildren but because they were required to read to get the information, those conversations didn’t happen. Disappointed.

The Creation Museum can be purchased alone or part of a ticketed bundle deal with the Ark Encounter. Parking fee is separate than ticket purchases in most cases. Check website for updated information. This museum offers its own parking, food, drink, gift shops, clean restrooms, multiple exhibitions, optional experiences for extra fees, and beautiful gardens to walk. The museum surprisingly discusses dinosaurs and dragons. The different perspectives versus interpretations. And offers a visual representation for understanding and knowledge. Museum and presentation was well thought out and planned. Great for anyone with religious and or non-religious background with open mind for learning and interpretations. Very interesting reads and beautiful representations displayed.

It has been a few years since I have been to the Creation Museum. Displays are much improved.

Be prepared to do a lot of walking. I walked almost 3 miles and didn't see everything.

I heard there were very few animals at the zoo.

Food at Noah's Cafe was outrageously priced. Two hot dogs, a small cup of mac and cheese and a soda was almost $18,00. Suggest you go out to a regular restaurant and get regular priced food, not Disney priced.

I came here with a bus tour group. It was very impressive. Like many have said it is a lot of walking and a lot of reading. Mobile scooters can be rented. The concert which happens around 11am is very well done. Singers are very good. Nice seated auditorium. All the personnel that we had dealings with were very nice and helpful. The grounds were very clean and neat. And restrooms were clean and odor free. It is a place I will probably not come to again being I have now done it. But I would come back with my grandchildren possibly when they are much older. The food was good at the Noah’s cafe, especially French fries were very crispy. All exhibits were very interesting. I really recommend.

What a great place to learn! You think you’ve learned it all, then you step into the Creation Museum and it stretches everything you’ve ever thought, lining it up with the Word of God! This is a must for families with teens! The best part was seeing the comparison between evolution and natural creation. My teens were challenged- exactly as I wanted them to be!! The grounds were absolutely beautiful and amazing. We arrived late after a long drive and spent 3 hrs inside- I wish we could have taken more time outside for ourselves. I wish that they didn’t charge more for parking. I just feel that it’s a bit like other theme parks in that aspect.

Overall this is a great museum and we are thankful that it exists.
There is a ton of good information.
The 4D theater was our favorite part.
Second favorite part is the "Fearfully & Wonderfully Made" exhibit - 5 stars!
The grounds are beautiful and extremely well maintained.
They take security seriously and we appreciated that.

Here are a few complaints:

The gift shop prices are outrageous! And we just came from tourist trap Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, so we were used to higher prices.

You have to pay for parking. This was a big disappointment. We are used to the status quo of paying for parking at other attractions and in large cities, but it felt totally unnecessary for the Creation Museum. It's in the middle of nowhere so there's no competition for parking. Most of their patrons are probably families and this in another burden on them. Don't charge for parking and maybe they'll spend more in the gift shop!

There is a TON of reading! I do like all of the information but it was way too much for my 8 year old daughter. I actually felt bad a few times trying to read everything while she is getting bored because it was too much for her and she already looked at all there was to look at. I think more videos with the information would be a great idea.

The Creation Museum is a huge facility which presents the Creationist view of the origin of life. It is an outreach of Answers in Genesis. The Creation Museum shows visitors thought provoking evidence to support the Biblical view of creation. Even if you are not Christian, you owe it to yourself to at least hear what Creationist say about the origin of life. The Creation Museum also states what Evolutionist believe, which is a lot more balanced than your typical science museum.
The museum offers a planetarium, a 4D theater, live speakers, and short films. Be sure to consult your program of daily events so you can plan your activities. There are many displays, with a good deal of reading. Plan to spend several hours going through the museum.
We ate at the Palm Cafe. It offers pizza, breadsticks, and sandwiches at reasonable prices. The Creation Museum has two book and gift shops, and several snack areas.
The outside portion of the museum is beautifully landscaped, with several garden areas. My favorite was the Japanese section. A playground is available, and a small zoo is also featured outside. A zipline adventure is available as well.
The Creation Museum is a wonderful place to take your family to encourage your faith. "Prepare to Believe."

It was a great experience. Deepens my Christian knowledge of Creation. Staff were friendly. Clean environment. Great for family, group or couples.

I enjoyed the tour. I enjoyed the Planetarium and the imax show. There is several places to get snacks or food. We didn’t eat there. Just be ready to read. There are a lot of people for a Thursday. You will enjoy

Visited with my grandsons. There is a $10 parking fee; the 4D movie (worth watching-about 20 min long) is included in the admission fee. The planetarium show is an additional fee, even for the kids.
There is a lot of information in the various exhibits, but it’s a lot of reading and did not hold the attention of the little ones. I’d recommend at least tween-ages kids to get the most of the museum. Some of the information was repetitive from the Ark Encounter.
The zoo was very small but a nice 15 min walk through.
Overall, a nice visit.

Loved this place. So much to learn. My girls were mesmerized with all the info. Lots of friendly people. We had lunch there. And went to the planetarium show. That was awesome.

The exhibits are amazing.

Our 8 & 10 year old loved most of the activities, sights, and sounds. 160 of us travelled from Washington state to see this incredible museum. Moderately priced restaurants for incredible lunches!

I enjoyed the animal show and 3D theatre shows! (Incl. in admission)7

Worth seeing!

Spent about 5 hours there with my husband and looked at all the exhibits, watched a movie and attended a lecture. We didn’t do the planetarium experience because it was extra $ and we felt we had enough to see.

Food options were good but could definitely be more variety- especially more gluten and dairy free items.

The outside gardens were beautiful! - especially the Japanese garden. The animal exhibit was ok.

Well done experience! I would recommend it for pretty much everyone.

Scientific and Biblical approach to creation and the timeline- and how they aren’t in conflict!! Side-by-side comparisons with creation vs evolution were interesting to see and super educational. Exhibits, movies, cafe and gift shops. and Very well done and absolutely fantastic grounds! Bonus features are the zip line and ropes course.

It was a very fun trip where you learn about the Christian belief and experience many things such as dinosaurs and gems

Like its sister attraction, the Ark Encounter, there's noting bad to say. Everything is done exceptionally well.
If, like my wife, you are looking forward to the butterfly house, be sure you get there in the right season--we missed it by a couple weeks.
There's not quite as much walking here as there was in the Ark, but you'll be on your feet for quite a bit of time. The exhibits are very well laid out and flow in a logical sequence.

A very interesting place to visit! Wasn't too excited to walk from the parking lot to the museum due to construction to expand the facility. Very interesting exhibits that takes a long time to read and walk through. Early May and the gardens were not in bloom. Zoo was in process and the area with the animals was very stinky. Butterfly exhibit was open and green house was OK but needs places to sit after a long day there. Food is reasonably price except for the candy store.

My husband and I were unexpectedly impressed by the incredible professionalism, skill, attention to detail and quality of workmanship evident all over this museum. The way the different exhibits are set up, the graphics, the audioanimatronics, the planetarium, even the landscaping outside and the design of the gift shop were so well done- and we are from the theme park capital of the world, Orlando, so we aren't easily impressed. If you want to get your money's worth, because this isn't cheap, I wouldn't take children younger than middle school, because there's a LOT of reading involved in the exhibits here- about the creation story, the relevance of Genesis today, about human growth/development in the womb, about dinosaurs (and dragon legends), about evolution (what it is and is not) vs. creationism in specific examples, about the fossil record, about insects...and on and on! It is quite an education, and so much to see that we wished we had allowed two days and ended up buying a book that contains all of the educational signs throughout the exhibits to review later. Also, be prepared to do a LOT of walking (there are wheelchairs and scooters to rent if needed). I highly recommend going on a weekday to avoid crowds.

Very disappointed. It was so commercialized. It was all about buying the books and merchandise which is so expensive. The cost of a bottle of soda was over $4. The layout is very confusing and makes for congestion. I would never recommend going.

Amazing place. So well done and professionally planned. The entrance has gorgeous landscaping that make you think you’re in the Garden of Eden. We paid extra for the two shows in the planetarium and those were worth it. We listened to a talk given by former NASA scientist Rob Webb about Aliens and Life on Other Planets. Kids need to be in their teens to truly appreciate all of the information.

We came to the museum the day after visiting the Ark. We found that some of the information overlapped with the ark, but overall it was good to visit both. The only negative was it wasn't spaced out enough and there were bottle necks in some areas. We went to the movie theater when it first opened and saw two shows which were in 4D but really the special effects weren't necessary and although it's included in your admission, I probably would recommend skipping. The group in the theater is then altogether when you leave the theater which creates a large group trying to see and read displays which causes the bottle necks. If you have to choose, I would do just the Ark Encounter.

I have visited Creation Museum multiple times and loved each visit. A lot of exhibits have been updated over the last few years and there is always more to see. It is informative and very interesting. This time I had a nine year old niece with me and she really liked the museum. One of her favorites were to see 4D movies, we saw two, she really enjoyed it. I really love the gardens surrounding the museum's gardens and the zoo, which is also expending. It is a great place to visit, especially if you would like to learn about creation from Biblical perspective. I highly recommend it.

LOVED this place. I loved seeing science presented straight from the Bible and being around like minded people. This place is very well done! There are lots of signs and you probably won’t be able to read them all, so you can purchase a book with every sign shown in it. A great reference! The 4D show was spectacular!! And the planetarium was very good as well.

Sponsored by Answers in Genesis, this museum makes the case that God created the world in 6 literal 24 hour days. This “young earth” perspective also maintains that the earth is a maximum of 6000 years old. If you subscribe to that view or what to explore that view, you will find the museum helpful & interesting.

There is a lot to read in the various exhibits & it crowds up as people stop to read. Families with young children will likely not read everything so they can keep moving at a pace that keeps kids’ attention engaged.

There is a dinosaur area - when our kids were young, they would have loved it. There is also a cool insect display and a 4-D movie that tells the biblical creation narrative from the young earth perspective. Other features include zip lines, high ropes, petting zoo & gardens (which are beautifully landscaped).

We visited the sister attraction Ark Experience the day before, & I felt like there was a lot of overlap. Though tickets are discounted if you buy both, if you only have time for one of the two, I’d say visit the ark.

This place is a joke. Its just a blatant attempt to justify christianity. Humans and dinosaurs walking side by side and all kinds of other fun things like Adam and Eve.

The Creation was great; we loved and very thankful we were able to visit.
Explained everything really well; high quality exhibit, 4K movie was great. The amenities were great.

We planned a trip to Kentucky to see both the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter, and our plans went so well. It was about a 7-hour drive from the Milwaukee area because of traffic delays and arrived in Kentucky about 2 PM, Eastern time. We thought this would give us plenty of time as we had read. They were open until 8 PM. However, when we arrived, we learned that they had just implemented an earlier close at 6 PM. We would’ve liked to have had a little longer to walk around, but we were able to enjoy the museum with very little traffic. The gardens surrounding the museum are fantastic and the whole thing was just so well done.
The museum involves quite a lot of reading, so we were grateful that the displays were easily seen with little traffic later in the day.
Spent the night in Florence, Kentucky, and had dinner at Mai Thai, based on Trip Advisor recommendations. It was great.

Visited this museum with my family! Had a wonderful time. The dinosaurs and people were so lifelike. Many informative things to see and read! It reaffirms how is as humans affect the earth and the outcome. Lots to think about. All should see how we can become better than the last generation if we take care of each other and the world. Loved it! The flowers are so beautiful and the grounds are clean. Staff is friendly and there is rooms for strollers and wheelchairs. All must see what a beautiful earth we have !

Visited creation museum as part of package with the Ark Encounter. Other friends had told us it was a lot of reading. It was. Its set up very well. My kids are older so they didnt have too much of an issue with the reading. We went on a Sunday. They opened at 1 and we were there until near closing @ 7. Outside grounds are nice. My daughter wanted to find the butterfly gardens. The provided map did not help. We asked 3 different staff personal, but none of them knew where it might be. She was disappointed in that. The 4D movie was a hit with all family members. Initially though price was high. Plus pay to park. But we did enjoy the museum. Didnt purchase any food. Can say we've been there. Probably a one time visit.

What an absolute let down! I thought I'd have a day full of learning about the Lord and biblical teaching but instead I was bombarded with commercialism. You couldn't go anywhere without running into "gift shops". Even the presentations finished with the presenter "hawking" books & merchandise. One is reminded of the time Jesus threw the money changers out of the temple

Our flights delayed us til afternoon to visit the Creation Museum but I found the gardens so lovely and restorative! I have to say that I was not optimistic about the museum because of the crowds entering with us. Parking is not included in the combo and expect to pay at each. While I found the museum to be educational, well designed, and the speakers truly inspiring, I was most struck by how well behaved, how considerate the large crowds of visitors were. This is not the norm for crowds of this size in most locations and speaks volumes. The downstairs cafes were not up (staff shortage) and we enjoyed the chicken salad wrap and drink out on the deck overlooking the gardens. Plan to walk a lot, and take photos of the more extensive info plaques to read later. Take a minute to see the goodies in the store (especially the cookies!) and show appreciation for the very attentive employees there. We were looking at the map, trying to decide what to do when a gentleman stopped and helped us. He recommended a few things and was not dressed as an employee. He talked to us a few minutes and we were surprised to see him 2 hours later at one of the events. He was the guest presenter! And an incredibly intelligent, personable lecturer. What a special place!

Wow! Great place has really evolved since we were there several yrs ago! Alot to see beautiful gardens outdoor zoo many other areas to visit.

Fabulous time spent at this Museum! The gardens leading to the Museum were beautiful and once inside, the history of creation unfolds. Starting with a walk through the Garden of Eden, and then, the displays of Adam and Eve as the story is told. Something for everyone here! The story boards were very interesting, easy to read and easy to share with youngsters. The story of Adam and Eve's fall from grace is well depicted. Lessons are mentioned in a meaningful way. I visited with teens and I was pleased to see, they were all in. Mini bonus, greeter at the beginning of the story had a live snake. He allowed the children to touch the snake and let them take photos with it. Nice start! A must see, for sure!

We enjoyed our visit here! There’s a lot of reading so it may be best with age 10+ but everyone enjoyed our day here. Our kids are age 8, 10, 13, and 16.

There’s about to be more outdoor exhibits soon. The botanical gardens are lovely and reminiscent Of Monet’s Water Lilies! 😍

We highly recommend eating at Rosie’s Italian in Cincinnati afterwards!!

Well documented. We had easy access to all exhibits given the time of year. Not sure that young ones (early elementary) would be all that interested.

Very Interesting. Good breakdown of world view vs. God's view. Good exhibits. Employees were super friendly and helpful.

My special interest was all the interesting, beautiful, insects in the basement of the creation museum. Oh my goodness, I have never been so in awed of Gods beauty.
I took so much time starring at, enjoying the work put into this display, and the animated professor whom could answer your questions of these individual insects.
It was very worth going through the whole evolution process. You had to take time to read the signs up to follow through the whole process. We loved this, plus so much to see. We were so glad we bought the DVD to take home for only $6.50 to share with so many of our friends. I personally want to share it with my whole church family.
I was excited about everything being so enjoyable to me. Then the insects. I should have been a boy. It must have taken us 6 hours or more to see all we could see. After we had been to the Ark, 45 minutes away from here. What a great day. I wish I knew how to upload a photo, I would have for you all to see.

A thorough examination of creationism vs. secular positions. Intelligently challenges the "scientific" evidence against creationism. There were great videos including a 4D video. The planetarium was good but cost an additional $9.

The landscape and surrounding gardens were beautiful. Summer days can get hot, so the air conditioning of the museum itself felt great. The 4D experience theater was a little weak. There was not much movement at all on the theater and it seemed like all that happened was the lights flickered. That could be improved. It felt like a low-budget Disney ride. The museum itself needed wider paths to walk as well. It often times felt like you were trapped in a certain spot.

This was our 2nd visit, but the 1st in several years. It is much better now with the gardens and more exibits. The 4 D theatre is a must see. There was more.reading than I was expecting, but the message was quite clear. We bought a pass for here and the Ark. Another must see.

Went to the creation museum yesterday with a friend. I have wanted to go for years. I have to say I was very disappointed. It was a lot of reading and a lot of sell, sell, sell. Expensive to park, expensive admission and things we wanted to see inside had additional prices. There was one amazing lecture we loved but even it ended with a sales pitch for 20% off some books. The halls are extremely narrow and hard to navigate on my scooter with all of the people. They also charge almost $40 a day to rent a scooter when many places are free as a courtesy for ADA. When you return the scooter, they try to sell you the ark encounter. It was money, money, money.

We went with a group, but walked at our own pace. There is a lot of reading and sometimes hard to see if the area was busy.
Dinosaurs and dragons were a huge part of the displays.
A lot of extra cost. $15 to park, $ 9 for the show in the Planetarium and food and drink prices were outrageous! We brought bottle water and granola bars to tide us over until we could find a place to eat.
Took us about us about 3 hours to tour and that was doing a show in the Planetarium (which I would not recommend, it was on Aliens) and the 2 different 4-D shows, that were free and more entertaining.
The day we went it was raining so the garden and petting zoo was out,
We are glad we went but would not go back. The Ark Encounter was much better.

We went to the Ark Encounter, it seems it's more fun in Ark encounter than the creation museum, the admission fee is very expensive compared to what we can see /spend the time here. There is same playground as the one in the Ark Encounter, the playground is good, the kids have fun there.

It was good, but mostly reading explanations concerning the creation. I enjoyed it, but too expensive and too far from the Ark, some 40 mils

I loved taking my family here! They learned more and really got to experience the beginning of the earth! Don’t kiss the Lectures in the hall! My 16 year old son said it was probably his favorite thing! Tim Chaffey was our first to lecture and he was AWESOME! Well worth the visit!!!

The day after seeing the Ark our group of 14 went to the Creation Museum. With both attractions we arrived at 9:00am to ensure we were able to get a wheelchair. From the parking lot it appeared small. Once we took a short walk which to me, I was walking through the Garden of Eden, the outside still didn’t appear very large. Once inside we spent a good 7 hours and felt like we still didn’t have enough time. A lot of great information, going back to the basics. Cafe prices a little high here for what you get. The had several 4D quick shows that were good. We were also able to see True Song which was a good short concert, look them up, they are inspirational. I would recommend doing both attractions in 2-3 days. Buy the package deal online.

The presentations were not set up for the hearing impaired. I sat through 3 with my family and couldn’t understand any. Closed captioning would help. A lot of people wear hearing aids this day and depend on the captioning.

I thought everything was very well done. We visited with three adults so all of the reading was not an issue. The outside gardens are amazing. I could have spent all day just walking the grounds. We missed seeing the inside of the butterfly sanctuary because it had a sign that it was only open from 2-5 so keep that in mind if you wanting to see it. The Garden of Eden is like walking through a Disney ride in a good way. I was also impressed with the pro-life exhibit. I would definitely recommend this museum to others.

We are on a 3 week Anniversary trip. The Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter were at the top of our list of things to do as we are devout Christians! We have a small REGISTERED SERVICE ANIMAL that is well trained and in a contained stroller and pee pad trained! They would not let us in, first place we have EVER been denied entrance! A Christian based museum! My registration card clearly states the business cannot refuse admittance, but they did!! I cannot put into words my disappointment in their treatment of us!!

If you like spending a lot of money to stand in crowds trying to read exhibits while people are pushing their way around you, then this is the place for you. Also, if you’re a true Christian, just open your Bible and read it. You’ll get much more out of it than wasting time going here.

Full exhibition on creation. Everything is detailed. Several things to see outside too. Gardens and wild animals. You can occupy a whole day or even more.

We really enjoyed our visit here. It took us about 5 hours to go through the whole museum. There is a lot of reading to do and the all the exhibits are top notch. The 4D movie theater was really cool and the one we watched was free with admission. There are 2 restaurants to choose from. One only served pizzas and hot dogs. The other one had more options. I recommend to take the time to walk through the gardens. They are absolutely beautiful. The zip line and rope coursed were open, but the zoo was not. We hope to bring our grandchildren back in a few years.

We saw the Ark Encounter yesterday and today the Creation Museum, which is a little further north. Both parks are monumental endeavors and testaments to God and The Bible. The museum was incredible and there is plenty to see and do for children of all ages…including adults. The films and exhibits were high-tech and 1st class. Zip lines, kids’ park, gardens, petting zoo, and more. Just as much fun outdoors as inside. Plan on spending at least 6-8 hours. Unlike the Ark’s cafeteria, the museum’s was not as good. But there are some decent outdoor cafes. Plenty of videos and exhibits to see. 4D and animated. Both locations provide electric scooters and wheel chairs. Everyone needs to see these miracle places.

We visited the Creation Museum many years ago, now again in August 2024. I spend most of my time studying the Bible. The Creation Museum presents itself as absolute authority on the Biblical creation account, yet fails to deliver Biblical truth concerning Pre-Adamic world, God’s Divine Council, the Nephilim, the coming Kingdom of God, etc.

Arrived here about noon and enjoyed lunch at Noah's Cafe. I chose broccoli cheese soup, a salad and a brownie. It was all good. The brownie was like eating fudge. We proceeded to gift shop, where I purchased a Christmas ornament. They have lots of items, such as tshirts, books, DVDS, magnets and more. We then proceeded to the museum itself. There is alot to see and read. The replicas of people are very lifelike and some of them have recordings and look like they talk. My suggestion is to get there when they open because we didn't make it to the gardens or the live animals, although we were there about 5 hours.

Wonderful museum. So much biblical history. I liked how they compared an evolutionists worldview verses a creationist worldview. Our favorite part was the planetarium about the galaxies. Do not miss that. It will leaving you in awe of the vastness of creation. It is extra but it’s absolutely worth it!!

This is a beautifully done, world class museum and gardens. Plan to spend an entire day at this facility. The exhibits and lectures are informative and eye-opening. Very interesting! If you have any curiosity or interest at all in the Biblical account of creation, this is a museum you will want to visit!

One of the best museum experiences we've ever had. It is definitely something you have to set aside a considerable amount of time to experience--an entire day at least. There are some things for small children, but it's mostly for young and mature adults. If you don't like taking it easy and reading a lot, or would rather have your face in your phone, they you likely won't enjoy it much. It was too cold outside when we went to experience any of the grounds, but they were really beautiful and we plan on returning during a warmer season to see it again in the near future. If you're someone who enjoys museums, and have not yet been to this, I consider this a "must-visit" museum!

We really enjoyed it but there is a lot to read and areas get congested. We would have loved to see the zoo but it was closed. Kids enjoyed the playground and the landscaping was beautiful.
