Definitely a unique experience. Educational info covers not only the building of this marvel but the time period as well. My son and husband are history buffs and loved it. Strongly suggest online reservations and go in the morning if possible. We went towards end of day and the arch was very crowded and it took away from the ability to enjoy it. The trip to the top of the arch is definitely not for people with claustrophobia. The trip up to top is in a very small "pod" crammed with five people. I did not enjoy it but I do very poorly in small spaces. My other family members were fine.
