It was absolutely wonderful! Yes it seemed a little pricey but when you get inside you will see it is worth it. There was So much care to every detail of the animals and their habitat. At 52 I felt like a kid. Getting to touch real stingrays, sea urchins and starfish was awesome. There were workers along the way to answer questions. The hand painted walls were incredible!I wheelchair & Stroller accessibly too. Wear comfy shoes and plan on staying several hours! I can’t say enough about this place - truly a world of wonder.
Absolutely amazing! The Museum is fascinating - tons of history and wildlife taxidermy to learn about and be in awe over. The Aquarium is the most amazing thing I've ever seen - we could spend all day there and still want to see more!!! We purchased the Champion pass, and plan to use it multiple times a month! Kids and adults both will LOVE both attractions. The penguin exhibit in the museum section is extremely cool, too!
My wife and I went for the second time and had another great experience! What I like best about WOW is that so many of the exhibits are so close and no glass in the way, it makes it a very personal experience.
Wonders of Wildlife is great! The only con that we have is that we wish there were more signs of information for various tanks or exhibits. There are some that showcase various species of animals or fish but we don't know what we're looking at. There are some screens that you can scroll through which is nice, but then too many that are nameless. For example, there are some exhibits near the swinging/hanging bridge that are built within fake logs but we don't know what is in each tank.
This place is really family-friendly and everyone that was great. Mr. Morris spared no expense with this exhibit. We visited both sides and it was an awesome experience for my children.
