As a frequent visitor of PCB for 20+ years, I've been eyeing Ripley's for quite some time. At…read morefirst, I wasn't interested ... especially since this is one of those staple "tourist trap" that you see almost any tourist destination. With that said, we needed an indoor activity with the kids and I gave in ... And I surprisingly enjoyed it more than my kids hahaha. I love history and the strange stuff and they have plenty of it. I enjoyed seeing one of a kind items like an actual lock of Abraham Lincoln's hair framed with a bloodied letter - strange and disturbing but quite interesting as well. I suggest to give this place a good two hours ... there's so much to see and enjoy. If you have an infant, there are certain rooms that are quite loud and startling so keep an eye out on that. There are a couple of rooms that are kid friendly (play ground and places to run), so definitely give them time to enjoy that area. All in all, it was a hit. I suggest to check it out at least once :)

Needs updated and all exhibits refreshed. Shopping cart or more baskets at the "store". Overall fun…read moreand kids enjoy it. It just looks a bit sad. The video game has been out of order too long. Keeping items stocked would help.

Disappointed sums it up…read more This place looks like time has gotten the better of it, and that happened some time ago. In the outside area, the "exhibits"(?) to the left were all closed off - the woodcutting house, and the wheelhouse. They all look like an accident waiting to happen if an unsupervised kid were to go wandering around there. The inside is a little more put together in terms of hands-on things for little ones to interact with. And I'll admit, our 3 year old did enjoy himself. I've just been to similar places like this one around the state, and they have been much more polished and far better maintained than this is. No staff walk around to pick up after kids, for example in the pretend shopping / grocery store area. One in St. Pete is well "policed" with workers picking up after kids, so each one gets to experience it fully, and not a ram-shackled mess. That seems like a minor issue, since we picked up for our child, and he enjoyed it still - but a simple thing like creating a job for somebody improves the experience for visitors. Overall, I wouldn't be in any great hurry to return. I'm not sure how much replay value there is for an infant - probably more than a single trip to be fair, but the neglected feel of the place puts me off. It just seems lazy and half-hearted. Which is a real shame, because there's no equivalent in the area, and it's a fantastic idea to stimulate little minds, and get hands-on experiences and exposure to science and math in a playful and fun way. Hopefully they will step up their game and live up to the potential the place really has, instead of just skating by on the bare minimum of effort.

Very interesting place to visit! The staff we talked to were absolutely delightful and…read moreknowledgeable about the history of the company. It is a small museum overall, but has many neat things.

The name they gave me (and the one listed on their site) doesn't lead dives yet because they don't have a way to launch their boat.It seems like this museum has a disconnect with the community and is more focused on PR than actually making it something that can be enjoyed by the public. This is my second time trying to visit, last time was off season so I figured it was just closed, but clearly this is an ongoing issue.
