Throughly enjoyed it and so did everyone in my group. I totally recommend visiting when in the Branson area and even making the drive if visiting the Springfield area. Also, I recommend being the "fiver" pass. That's good for the aquarium, the wax museum, the hall of mirrors, the castle of chaos, and the mini golf course.

This place was pretty cool, but mostly geared towards kids and families. It's also a pretty short…read morewalk through. You can easily walk through the whole thing in like 30 minutes. The highlight of this place is definitely the underwater tunnel. It felt like I could reach out and grab the sea creatures! One thing that I thought was weird is that the tour starts off forcing you to take pictures with the aquarium mascot, which is something I've never quite experienced before. Hint hint: get your tickets in the evening hours because they are cheaper than the daylight hours are

Tropical River and Reef surpassed all my expectations. I had a lot of questions about my purchase…read morebefore buying and they were very helpful and responded very quickly to my emails.

Half the animals felt stressed and depressed because of how small the enclosures were. If I could report this place to be shut down I would because the environment for the animals is terrible and way too small. It isn't even worth going here because your just giving them your money to have animals sit in tiny enclosures and be depressed. On top of having depresssed and stressed animals the bathrooms smelled terrible. THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN! After we got through it we stopped and noticed that this one bird was literally ripping its own feathers out! Clearly that's a sign that it is not okay!

We got to feed the nurse sharks which was an awesome experience, and feeding the lemurs was absolutely incredible! Josh did an awesome job with answering our questions and giving us treats for the lemurs. By far, my favorite was the dingoes though. Emily was in with us the whole time and told us about them. I hadn't known a whole lot about dingoes but I left with an absolute love for these beautiful creatures! Had so much fun petting them and loving on them, especially Loki! He is an absolute sweetheart!

We had so much fun at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Branson! It's a must-see for movie lovers and was…read moreone of those rare activities that entertained our entire family, which is not always easy with our mix of personalities. It was definitely a little pricey, but honestly, we felt it was worth the money. I would recommend getting the trio package so you can enjoy the other nearby attractions as well. My biggest advice is to take your time! We moved through it pretty quickly, and if I did it again, I would slow down, take more pictures, and really soak in the experience. They had so many great props that made the photos even more fun. Definitely bring your camera and enjoy the memories. We had a great time!

It's good for this wax museum, the aquarium down the street, the house of mirrors right next door, the castle of chaos (in the same building as the house of mirrors) and the mini golf course right across the parking lot. The Wax museum was fun and interesting. My favorite part was the horror section. It was a nice, creepy display. I really enjoyed this attraction and recommend checking it out when in Branson.

You do get a free drink and free food thingies fir animals included. To owners, couple suggestions. Invest in way, way, way more fans. Its southern missouri. It gets hot! Put fans in your side by sides. In upper building with snakes and all that...... fans. Lots of fans. There was on fan the day we went in this building and BY FAR IT WAS THE BIGGEST ATTRACTION. A LINE FOR IT! maybe be a little more organized on your ultimate package. Or times changed several times fir what we were doing next and had to wait 20 mintues at end of tour for or time with sloths, and we had to share that experience with another group because everything unorganized. And if I didn't mention. Fans. Theres one in "breezeway". Add about 20 more.

It was such a unique experience and really made us work together as a team to find our way through. Everyone enjoyed it, and my only complaint is that I wish it was longer! It is a little pricey for the experience by itself, but if you purchase a package that includes other attractions, it's definitely worth adding to your day. Such a fun family activity!

There's some great "goes on into infinity" effects with the mirrors. Plus, if you get the Fiver Pass, it's included, along with the aquarium down the street, the wax museum next door, the castle of chaos (at the end of the maze) and the mini golf course across the parking lot. It was fun, although a bit short.

This was our second time doing it,…read moreso the excitement and surprise factor wasn't quite the same as the first time, but it was still a lot of fun. The shooting competition adds a fun element and a little friendly competition between family members. It's definitely an experience I recommend doing at least once, especially if you have younger kids. I will say it may feel a little cheesy for older kids or adults, but for families with children, it's a fun addition to your day. It was a great way to make memories together!

We skipped the golf course because it's outside and it was cold and raining. Out of the 4 out of 5 attractions we visited, I had the most fun on this one. It's a virtual 3D ride combined with a first person shooter video game. So you have 3D glasses and a laser blaster gun and pick settings/foes. We went with killer clowns and robots. We were all laughing and having a great time blasting enemies. If I had one suggestion, it would be to make the ride last longer. It seemed pretty short, especially with how fun it is. But, if you got kids (or even if you don't), check it out. It's a blast! Totally get the Fiver Pass as it's the best value.
