Thank you for the awesome experience! It was amazing to see, walk through, and learn about the awesome God and His love for humanity. Three decks of lessons and displays on how the Ark could have supported Noah his family and the animals. We also went to the Creation museum and really enjoyed it as well. We used three-day so we could take our time and read, learn and enjoy all that the two offers and not feel as though we had to see it all in one day. I would highly recommend visiting here and plan on more than one day.

Pros: beautiful, much bigger than expected, informative, interesting, lots to see and do. Wheelchair, walker and stroller friendly. Staff is friendly and helpful. Cons: take your own drinks unless you want to pay $3.17 for a soda and $2.50 for water. Parking is $15, Went Memorial Day weekend and naturally it was very crowded. Things to buy there are too expensive. But experience was great! Glad we made the trip to go. You’ll spend a good 3-5 hours there and not even mean to. There are 3 levels, multiple snack shops, restroom on every floor, gift shop on ground floor. There are little cafes outside the Ark with seating on the outside, the zoo is next to the Ark as well. You park, then you are bussed up to the Ark. highly recommend going.

Amazing re-creation of Noah’s Ark, built the same size as the Ark from the Bible’s specifications. We spent nearly all day there — we were happy to find bathrooms on every level, snack shops, gift shops, and places to sit and rest. The Zoo was fantastic too! The whole family will enjoy this very well done exhibit and world-renowned attraction. The restaurant was good too, buffet style so something for everyone.

Great experience and great for family. To see a life size of the biblical account of Noah’s Ark. You don’t realize the scale until you actually face it. The inside display is beautiful and awesome. The work that they had to do, had to be enormously hard but with help of God it was accomplished. We have cranes but they had ways to build which is mind blowing to figure how. Definitely recommend going on a visit. We also plan to see the other museum.

I went with a group on Tues. There were a lot of people there but comfortable. A guide told me it was a light day! Some days they have 6 to 10,000 people! I loved it. It took me abt 6 hours to see it, just having a snack for lunch. And I didn't get to the outside things. I love to read all the signs!
