Ripley's Believe It or Not / Palace of Wax Review

This place has been here forever. I remember going to this place when I was a kid 25+ years ago. There used to be an animal safari park next to it back in the day. For withstanding the time, I give it 4 stars. Not a bad place for the family to hang out for a few hours. My kids liked it, that's all that counts. There's the regular Ripley's museum, a wax museum, a VR theater, and a mirror maze. You'll save if you buy the different attractions all at once. Also, check Groupon.

We got their when it opened so we didn't have to fight the crowds. Everything was clean and in good shape. The employees weren't the friendliest, but overall it was a good experience and we had a good time.

It is very fun until you go into jack the ripper unless you like scary movies

You gotta stop and check it out!
Lots of fun.

This place is awesome! My husband and I took our daughter there and she loved it! It has so much to do!

It is a great place for both adults and children to engage in fun activities each scenery has to offer. Keep an open mind on what you will explore inside. Don't be afraid to be a big kid.

Had a blast! Fun family activities good for multi generational get together

The mirror maze was awesome.
The manager was super friendly and helpful.
All the exhibits were amazing, cant wait till go back again.

It s a great place to take your family for a day and there s lots to do. My 3 year old loved it!

Visited while on a quick vacation. The experience was very good. Attractions are great and in good conditions.

I loved every minute of it. I'd HIGHLY recommend the Moving Theatre Attraction.

Bring quarters for the games inside. Pretty good if you buy from Groupon. Lots of stuff to see. Extra stuff is great too.

We had the best time ever! So affordable for a family. Loved the wax museum and the hall of mirrors.

Wax house was ok, two much other things that didn't go with the museum

Was actually a really neat place. Definitely worth going.

Great place for family entertainment..fun..exciting..great customer service .

What is there not to love about this place..? There's so much fun you can have learning what makes this world so weird and bizarre- it's exciting, it's entertaining and inspiring.
There's all those things from: the strange and bizarre, game challenges, cool souvenirs, useful information, history, suspense and just overall a good time.
The wax figures are always fun to take pictures with too!
(spoiler alert)

Okay, I won't spoil it for ya, but the wax figures are awesome.
Enjoy yourself, take a trip over to the museum to see what makes it so much fun.

Wax figures could have resembled the celebrities more.

Kids museum some stuf or trur some or a scam but it's entertainment

This place was great! I took my fiance here for Halloween. We had a blast in the Haunted Mirror Maze. The wax figurines look very real. Would come back again and visit!

Kids had fun. Would have liked a few more turns in the moving theatre. The rest was good and mirror maze would have been better if they wiped away the hand prints that some kids left.

It was fun but the people looked to real you all need to have Naomi from WWE there and her husband and his brothers....

This place is small but fun for the family. Great fun.

I loved the life you brought to the death and resurrection of Savior! Amazing!

Great family friendly place! Clean restroom/ employees are friendly!

At first I was not exited to go to a Wax museum, but once there I found out its much more than that so many options and stuff to do, well worth going!

First coming across I though it was a religious worship place but it is actually not. I like the white marble.

Lots of fun things to do and see. Signage could be improved inside and outside. Clean family fun. A little pricey, so it is not likely to be a routine stop.

The attractions were nice and you can definately spend a good 4 hours there and still enjoy yourself with out getting burned out. The staff were friendly and help full. The manager Chelsea was checking to see if the guest were enjoying themselves

Great experience. My second time coming. First time doing the mirror maze very entertaining. The museum is not that long but you can walk it at your own pace. 20 min tour plenty of interesting exhibits and kid friendly activities. Through out the tour they have a couple of arcade style games so make sure to take some singles to trade for quarters. Gift shop is nice and full of candy. I would definitely visit again.

Very entertaining for adults and children. Lots of activities, gift shop, and snacks. Plan for a full day for sure.

Fun. Not as great as I remember as a kid but me and a friend enjoyed the experience.

Amazing place , Sparks up imagination and curiosity at 100 percent is a must see to experience

I cried the wax museum had a scary part and you could not exit it was so scary and the lights were flashing and it almost gave me a seizure

I loved coming here as a child and looked forward to bringing my children here. I have to say that I am disappointed that the tornado exhibit has been removed.

small but worth a visit! Kids had fun, exhibits are cool!

Ok I guess - I had a good time but it was expensive.

This is one of those places where you can spent your entire day and you won't regret it. We had paid for 4 attractions apart from Laser attraction we have enjoyed all of them. Especially the 7D experience, it was amazing. Wax Museum, Ripley s Facts, Mirror Maze all are amazing. In wax museum you will find marvel characters, git characters, and so many celebrities with whom you can click photos. This place is great for kids and good to host birthday parties. There is a lot parking spots available without any charge. But this is not such place where you can go again and again, but for once it is worth to try out.

Great for a fun day! I will say this is more for kids 5+ and of course adults, lol.

Very fun place to take the kids while still being very entertaining for the adults! If you like learning interesting facts and want to mess with mazes, optical illusions, and a 7-D theater, this place is for you

The lines did not get long until after 12pm. The 7D theater is fun, even though I didn't do good until the second time. I'm so glad you could exit before entering the horror section of the Wax Museum.

Had a great time with the kids ( age 13, 11 & 9), always a great choice to beat the Texas heat!..

Not bad at all. Only worth it if paying with Groupon in my opinion. Thanks Groupon!

Had a good time, but wasn't quite what I expected. Be ready to spend a bit of money too.

We saw the odditorium and the 7 d movie ride. First was pretty cool, the movie ride was very disappointing (considering I paid $25 a person for the day s activities, a lot for a single mom anyway) . My son told me after that his equipment had not been working properly. Definitely could have done something more worthwhile with that money. The whole experience only took us a little over two hours.

Luckily we had a 20% off promo code so it ended up being $58 for me and my daughter. It was okay. The majority of the wax figures looked nothing like who they were supposed to be. Poor Dr Phil was awful. Lol. Towards the end of the wax tour, it had horror movie ccharacters and had strobe lights and scary noises. My 11 year old hates scary stuff so we got the heck out of there bc it was pretty creepy. The 7D movies were pretty neat, we enjoyed that. The laser beam race was maybe 1 minute long at the most. The mirror maze was maybe 5 minutes or so. I saw that we would need the entire day but we did everything in about an hour and a half. Definitely not worth $58. Not worth going to again but was an interesting place.

Great array of fun and interactive exhibits for the adults and the kids. Tons of fun and interesting facts, this place really is amazing. Always a great time, you get your money s worth here. Go online to save money and purchase the 5 exhibit package. Plan on spending 3-4 hours there.

Better experience than I expected. Something for everyone in here. Be careful of the picture booth though. That's a RIP off. Overall a great experience!!!

Fun place to visit and there is lots to do. The museum is filled with interesting displays and the wax museum is awesome. There's a laser tag place as well and the gift shop is filled with goodies candies and other fun trinkets.

This was worth the money for all the attractions. Had a wonderful day.

We enjoyed our visit and I thought it was cool to make a wax sculpture of my sons hand.

The wax art Awesome, Staff phenomenal customer service

Fun place. Would want more food options and especially Guten Free food/snack options. Otherwise loads of fun.

Not as big as I thought but plenty to see. Ripley's, a wax museum, mirror maze and much more. I recommend going within if you are in the area.

Was much bigger then we thought it would be. Kids had a great time. Recommend for those indoor days and need something to do.

This was our first visit to Ripley's Believe It or Not. Our family had a blast.
