Definitely spent hours in here, as there are so many levels, room, activities, etc. Really loved the activities that were super engaging, both for kids and adults. The spots area on the bottom ground floor was super fun and not crowded at all. The price is well worth the visit! perfect place for families, and even just adults (i saw some adult friend groups who were visiting and they looked like they were having so much fun!) Parking is across the street under the highway. it's $15, which is not the best but at least it's a short walk. It was pretty easy finding a spot too.

This place is huge with multiple floors of hands-on and educational exhibits that kept our son moving the whole time. We even booked the soccer exhibit with our general admission tickets and had a lot of fun exploring different soccer challenges and interactive spots at our own pace. Our son especially loved building a Lego arena and creating his mascot at the soccer exhibit. The museum is clean and the staff are friendly. We booked our tickets online which was very quick and easy. We went on a weekday and it wasn't too crowded, which made chasing our little one around much easier. There's a parking garage within walking distance to the museum and you pay before you leave. We had an absolute blast especially our son. If you have an active little one who loves to run around and explore, this is a fantastic spot. Highly recommend - we'll definitely be back the next time we're in Dallas.

If you find yourself in Dallas for the weekend make plans to visit the Sweet Tooth Hotel -…read morecurrently they are offering $8 cocktails and Karaoke. PARKING - If you park in the garage next door The sweet tooth hotel will validate your ticket. However, I do recommend TAKING A UBER!!! I visited two weeks ago, the elevator in the parking garage was broken!! The wouldn't go down, only up. Let's me clear - I am not that lazy, I will walk when needed. However my friend has a busted knee, which wouldn't allow her to climb stairs. She's already walking like a pirate. I went to 3 other parking garages before I found one that felt safe with an easy walk. We purchased tickets in advance ($17 - Super Sweet Karaoke) General Admisson. As we entered The Sweet Tooth Hotel you could hear the off-key Karaoke in the bar area. We received a room key at the desk for the additional 7-8 rooms. The first three rooms were vibrant and full of local art installations. I was obsessed with the Mad Hatter's tea Party themed room. The bar is fun! Lots of reflective mirrors. You can purchase desserts here as well as cocktails. I wish this place stayed open until 1am. We stayed until closing which was (11pm) I ordered the "sunset dream" cocktail. All cocktails are $8 on Fridays. The bartender gave great suggestions. I would definitely recommend going here if you're in the city.

After waiting in line at the check-in and going through a metal detector we were directed to a waiting room where a friendly employee explained that there was a mysterious story that you could try to figure out or you could just explore. Then they led us into the room to start exploring at our own pace. It was a really cool experience and full of creatively fun art. It was definitely an out of this world experience. After spending a few hours exploring we briefly visited the souvenir shop. We didn't get anything but they do have a variety of things to purchase. Overall The Real Unreal Meow Wolf is worth a visit if you like hands on experiences with a mysterious story that you can try to figure out while enjoying the creative art work.

In town for the horse races so decided to have some fun and this place does not disappoint!…read more Everyone is so nice and helpful. So, there are different sections and you lay according to what you want to do which, I think, is ridiculous! But we tried them all! We expected about 90 minutes based on the website information and ended up there for 3 hours! Obviously they have a gift shop but very unique and popular where kids line up is the hand wax molding they do. Kids love it as they dip their hands in wax and the employees are very skilled at doing them. Keep in mind, we came with no kids, just 4 adults and it was, not only, interesting, but quite fun! In order of my favorites: By far the "moving theater" was exhilaration and fun. You sit in simulators with 3 D glasses on and have attached hand guns you use like in an arcade. Object is to shoot as many werewolf's as possible for points and the one with most points wins. The guy heading it was also helpful as well as fun and even offered to take a group photo for us. The chairs move and fans blow wind, it was my favorite! -House of Fear- another excellent experience, you walk through and see different types of menacing creatures typically found in horror flicks, very fun and somewhat interactive as you walk through, loved it -wax museum was next fave, so cool all the genres and time pieces, they weren't too lifelike but close enough to be amazed! -the regular Ripley's museum takes the longest only because so so many things to read about, the displays had very bizarre things and people, a little on the twisted side. -my least favorite was the house of mirrors. I just didn't like it, I went in and quickly turned around only to exit out of the entrance! All in all, a very fun experience, it wasn't too crowded at all and they were a bit understaffed, but a nice experience for the family

The interior of the building is kinda bare, not a lot of glass containers of animals, and the ones they have are typically reptiles and or spiders.

They have a room with a few interactive games that my kids liked. For my 2 kids and I it was $11 to go in that room. Honestly it wasn't really necessary, and we wouldn't have missed out if we didn't go in there. But I didn't mind since everything else was free. We only stayed for about an hour. It was nice to just enjoy the outdoors. There weren't any animals outdoors to view. But it was still super pleasant. I would say skip the special room unless you want to just donate to the center.

Purchasing tickets online was simple and let me choose the exact date and time I wanted to visit. Check in was quick with the email confirmation. The museum itself was very clean and I constantly saw employees wiping down and tidying exhibits. Some of the illusions were tricky to figure out at first, but the placards on the walls explained everything really well. The staff was also super helpful and happy to show guests the best angles for photos. Emma was especially amazing at helping frame pictures and making sure we got good shots inside the exhibits. One exhibit featured a spinning tunnel that was tough for me because of equilibrium issues, so keep that in mind if you are sensitive to motion effects. This is a quick and entertaining side quest while downtown. It took us about an hour and fifteen minutes to experience everything.Theres no rush and you move at your own pace. I would definitely come back again.

Employees were very attentive when asking if we wanted to get a photo, which is great. There was even one employee who was cleaning one of the mirror illusions, but stopped and took the time to explain how the illusion worked for us. I wish I had gotten his name, because he was an awesome employee. My main gripe, as stated previously, was that the museum was smaller than we thought. It took us 30 minutes to get through all the illusions, and for the price point to enter, just didn't seem worth it in comparison. I'm glad I went, I just probably won't go back for a while. I did get some nice photos.

We were fortunate there was no cloud cover! You could see for miles from the Ball's point of view at 470 feet up. The Reunion Tower itself is a 561 ft observation tower in Dallas, and one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. We spent about 30 min checking out the views and eventually made our way back down the elevator. Overall, it was a nice experience! But for the price we paid, I did expect a bit more! Side note: Remember to download your free group picture at the kiosk before you leave!

The Tower looked like a lollipop and was only 20 mins walk from our hotel. At one point we found ourselves on the train tracks and could see the Tower but couldn't quite see how to get there as there was no signage or directions. Eventually, we had to walk around and go under a bridge to get to the other side and walked towards the Tower. Even the entrance had no signage. It did have the name of the restaurant Crown Block and also Hyatt Hotel but nothing about the Tower. Anyway, we walked in and went downstairs. Tickets were $19 and can be bought from the kiosks. As we walked to the line, you get to have your photo taken with a green screen. There are props you can use on the right counter if needed. In the elevator you can see outside as you are going up. I just wished the glass was facing the city instead of Trinity river and the two Margaret sister bridges. You can see all the freeways overlapping like spaghetti. At the top, there is a little area with a few tables and chairs. I guess you can bring a lunch or snack whilst enjoying the views. The restrooms are really clean up there. Outside, there are telescopes available and info about the skyline. However, it was awfully windy and cold in January. The staff were really friendly and helpful with any questions you have. We found out the photos taken earlier, could be viewed at the kiosks by scanning the barcode on your ticket. They email the photos to you for free or you can buy a physical copy from them. Overall, it was a nice visit. Have to say, there were hardly any people around. I guess it was off peak tourist season, so it was nice not having the crowds and long lines.
