I went to my first Ripley's believe it or not in Clifton Hill in Niagara Falls, ON. I loved it and was enjoying learning about the interesting facts around the world and truly learning about the history of Niagara Falls, seeing the amount of people who tried to go over the falls and all their antics. Definitely a must go to if you're in the area. Right after we went to Kelsey's for dinner so really cool to be able to not have to walk too far for food!! read more

My first time in Canada was awesome! We visited the Hill near the falls and the attractions there. We went to Louis Tussaud's which my fiancee really enjoyed. My favorite part was trying to guess who the faces belonged to on the walls. I would bring friends here. read more

If you're getting this with the Ripleys bundle with Ripleys Selfie Station then it's worth it but totally not a full price. It's a fun place to visit but many of the waxworks are pretty rough. They have some good displays but the head sculpts on many leave you asking who's that supposed to be? Alas that is not uncommon with wax museums so the reason for 4/5 stars. You can breeze through a place like this quickly if you're not stopping to take pics and look over all the sculpts so take your time and get the most out of this. Highlight for us was the chamber of horrors section - which pushed me to 4 stars. The scenes are well lit and the vibe is creepy!! Well done!! read more

I got the package deal of doing Ripley's, this place, and the selfie museum at a discounted rate. It's an ok experience. There are some that are dead-on for the celebrity to the point of it being creepy. Others look like a 5-year-old did them and look nothing like the celebrity. Nonetheless its a fun time and worth the visit, just not at full price. read more

Sensational entertainment here! I had fun learning about a wide variety of things and finding about other assortments of raggle-taggle fun facts. I can say the moneys worth, and there's nothing to complain about. The exhibits were also interactive, so bonus points. The area is decorated very stylishly, lots of pop-up colors and other fun. Go here, this place is just one amongst the other great places around this spot! read more

Awesome!! Was in Canada for a Hockey Tournament and needed something to do during down time. Was staying in Clifton Hill which is like a giant theme park. Came here and it was really cool. They had a 3 for 1 deal that included Ripleys Museum, Ripley Selfie Studio, and Louis Tussaud's Waxworks. All together for 3 people it ran about $126 CAD. All 3 attractions are basically about a block away from each other so they are not in the same building. Ripley's Museum had some really weird and interesting things. Part of the Berlin wall is on display, Megalodon teeth, and many many many interactive displays through out. If you have kids I'd say this is a must see. At the time of this visit they had a special attraction of movie memorabilia that included Forrest Gumps box of chocolates signed by Tom Hanks, Used Light Sabers from the Original Star Wars Movies, plus interactive Green Screens. If in the area definitely check this place out! read more

Fun stop even for 4 adults. We spent almost an hour in here. Don't miss the video doc about all the people who have gone over the falls in various contraptions they built. Best if you get the package that includes the wax and selfie museums, such as better value read more

First I wanted to say this place isnt cheap, $20-30 pp (kids 5 up need to pay). However, if you have curious kids and patience you can turn it into an 1-1:30 h visit which is a not so bad value for money. There are several room, some are more interactive and close to the end there is a type of a game room with many attractions which my kids loved. I don't know if all the exhibits are real (some reallfelt like fakes) but the kids had a great time and this is one of the better attractions on the Niagra strip. read more

I spent a lot of time upgrading to an enhanced license and waiting at the border in hopes that this place would provide me with a banging 30th birthday. Every second, worth it. I grew up on Beyond Belief, enamored with oddity and the bizarre. It's October, so it's time to let my inner freak fly, and stepping inside I immediately realized it was more than that. It's interesting and mind bending, with optical illusions and interactive experiences. There's marvels and artifacts, all with their own placards. While I did take some pictures, as did my pals (there are plenty of opportunities) I was too busy being entertained to capture proof I've been there. Now keep in mind I'm what most people consider quirky, so it's right up my alley. I was worried that at the high price we wouldn't milk it for all it was worth, but thankfully we stayed for about two hours, fully immersed. I imagine the revisit value isn't too high, though as a one time birthday experience, I feel like I brought the new decade in right. My pals sprung for the three in one package, preordering their tickets online to save the american bank hassle. There was a bit of a hiccup with the phone QR codes, though the workers stationed at each entrance were helpful in remedying the snafu. One pal added on the book, which while interesting, isn't necessary to enhance your experience. If you don't want to spare the extra couple bucks on three in one, the main museum is the place to go. That being said, despite only have an instagram for my rabbit, the selfie studio is wonderful for even just joking around (we did get pics, as the booths are great, touching on three of my main enamorations: rubber ducks, lemonade and plushies). The wax museum is- well, I'll be honest. While I can't do better, some of the figures weren't the best, with off skin tones and questionable gazes, it was amusing to poke fun at it all. Just make sure you make this your potty stop for a bonus surprise! This place is touristy, no denying it. It sits in Clifton Hill, a touristy mega, where you're going to spend money. Is everywhere worth it? Probably not, but rest assured, this place is. read more

Probably the best attraction on the strip. A lot to see and interact with for adults and kids. It was a rainy day and we spent over an hour inside but could have spent more time. So much to look at and read. The kids learned something and so did I. It is a must see and good value as a standalone attraction or with the pass. read more

Ripley's Believe It Or Not! - Museums Near Me - Niagara Falls, Ontario

We got a deal on 3 attractions, selfie studio, wax museum and the believe it or not exhibit. I was prepared to not like this tourist experience but I was happily proved wrong. We spent hours in the believe it or not building going to each display. We read so many interesting things and played with the interactive exhibits. The kids had an amazing time. They would of gladly stayed longer, we parents tapped out after a couple of hours. Lol. You don't have to stay as long as we did. Even our baby, 1 year old, had a good time exploring. It helped that there were very few other people there on a cold Friday. read more

Great fun!! They have something for everyone!! The only complaint I had was some of their interacting stations were down and just showed a computer screen. Other than that it was awesome. We went at a time not many people were there and had a lot of the place to ourselves. read more

So I was harsh on the Guiness Book of World Records joke of a "museum," and I stand by that. At least with Ripley's, there are actual displays and items from the bizarre, the unusual, the weird items from across the globe. Thus was not my favorite Ripley's, but it was still really cool to visit in Niagara Falls. I also find it funny how it's in Canada and not on the United States side of the falls. The Ripley's here is clean, fairly large, and the staff members were helpful. And for God sakes, just don't bother with Guinness. read more

This place was pretty overpriced and unfortunately wasn't that enjoyable. Its around 19-20usd a person. Maybe 15-20 min worth of entertainment. It's kind of like a children's science museum plus some wax figures. I wouldn't come here, but reading other reviews of other places in the area, it might be the best attraction around. read more

A great spot for the fun of it, The tallest, the longest, the oldest, etc...if you're a fan of the show, then this is certainly the spot for you! You can spend a very long time at this place, as there are so many things to see and learn about, make the best out of it, read tags, learn about history and new fun facts. Definitely recommended read more

We had a lot of fun visiting here. It has some similarities with the Ripley museum in Orlando though. We had a great time and the staff were helpful. I highly recommend it. read more

Honestly, once you have been here, nothing really changes. However, we all come so we can enter the Vortex Tunnel. We get the biggest kick out of it and we go back and forth through it for several minutes till we can no longer stand straight. LOL Worth the visit, even for us silly adults!! :) read more

It was super interesting, A very fun way to learn about people who did insane things and broke world records. Also, the animatronics and simulations of the people are insanely good. There are so many rooms and things to look at. If you have a very curious mind, I would definitely recommend this to you! (The above review was written by my nine-year-old boy. He had a great time here, and I would add that it was excellent value for our money. He learned a lot and spent over two hours in the museum, having fun the whole time!) read more

we had one day in niagara falls to round off our East coast family vacation... we booked one of those package deals to multiple excursions...then decided to walk back to the hotel (instead of using our included bus pass). we walked up the street and it was packed full of freak shows, haunted houses, guiness book and ripley's. I would consider taking my kids to a couple of these if (a) i had a coupon and (b) we had a 2nd day here. That wasn't the case...but when i saw that Ripley's does Wax hands...how could i resist?!?! kids each got a wax hand done...it wasn't cheap...basic price is white only...upcharge for color (duh we're gonna do color) and upcharge to fill the was hand (otherwise it's like a wax glove) and of course we had to do that otherwise it would be crushed and a waste of time to do it in the first place. $10 for hollow white $16.50 for solid white $2.50 for color oh and it's Canadian prices...so i guess $19 is about $15 in US dollars so yup...it wasn't cheap..but my kids have a mold of their hands to keep forever..and they loved the experience itself too! read more

Poor deformed animals! Awwww, it made me so sad to see two headed animals, poor babies. Pre-buy your tickets for Ripley's Believe It Or Not to save a few dollars. You can get some pretty cool pictures while at the Odditorium. I learned a lot while making my way around the museum. Some factoids were super informative and fun while some were just lame and they should have left out. It was definitely a mix of exhibits. The special Niagara Falls exhibit and movie is of course the most unique thing about this museum and probably the most cool thing here, as well. It takes just over an hour to walk through and if you buy both this & the wax museum prior on their website, the tickets will run you $10 each. They are open until 1am on Summer nights! read more

This was a fun place for all ages, kids and adults. Make sure to look out for coupons to get a small discount. The museum was bigger then I thought it would be. There were quite a few exhibits to enjoy. If you are artist or sculptor you will definitely enjoy this place. One of my favorite exhibits was the spinning room, history of Niagara video, and all the funny and weird figures. This spot is probably one of the better museums/sites in Clifton hills, try it out! read more

I seriously love the Ripley's museums - I've been to quite a few but this one at Niagara Falls was especially fun. My mom and I came here for while visiting the area and you just learn so many fun and interesting things. The museum is very interactive with "games" and activities throughout. There's so many that I don't think you need to necessarily go to every single one in every city, but it's definitely worth going to a new one every so often. This one has a lot to offer and can entertain you for probably 1-3 hours depending on how much you want to read and experience. read more

Such a fun experience! This museum is reasonably priced with a $3 off coupon from a pamphlet we got when we parked at Clifton Hill. The staff was super helpful and friendly. The museum was a lot larger than I expected it to be! It kept going and going and it definitely takes time to get through if you're reading most of the displays. There's tons of photos ops and interactive displays which are so cool and sometimes make you jump! The vortex tunnel is awesome and so fun. I absolutely recommend it for families, friends or couples! read more

I don't know if any of you ever watched the "Ripley's Believe It Or Not" show, but I used to be a huge fan. That being said, I was really excited to check this out and see what they had going on. Overall, I will say that there is definitely a lot to see, but almost to a fault. There was so much going on, that after a certain point it just didn't seem to fit and felt like they were stretching it a bit far. It could almost have been two separate attractions- the really odd, and the more scientific/techy. I particularly like that the gift shop had a spot where you could get a wax hand made from a mould of your own. Very cool. But again, not sure how it really tired in with the "oddities" as to me, it's more cool science stuff. In general, I would say it's worth checking out if you're in the area, but I wouldn't make a trip specifically to see it. It's cool but not a "must see", though there is something for everyone and would be good for a family of multiple ages. read more

Have been to Ripley's in Atlantic City so I figured it would be the same thing, but there was more to see at this one. Some of the exhibits were the same but there was more to see at this one. It was better then AC. Would go again, but get the combo ticket. read more

Well, I first have to say that this was not my choice since I tend to avoid these kind of tourist traps. However, it was better than I expected with some pretty cool oddities and puzzles. Well, I still think and 2 headed rabbits and worlds fattest person are just cruel. However, there were other things which were cool like the optical illusion of house and rotating tunnel illusion. Also, there were some fun facts about Niagara Falls of people trying their barrel challenges. So, I have to give the benefit of the doubt on others who like this kind of stuff. Good to try once but for me, I will pass next time. read more

So corny. So touristy. So weird. So cool! I don't know why I love this place but I do. Definitely worth the time and the money. read more

Hubby's co-worker suggested we check this out while we were visiting. After a few drinks on our first night in Niagara, we popped in. It was priced alright, with options to go to the ride across the street & one of the wax museums -- but we opted just for the museum itself. There were all sorts of oddities to be seen - shrunken heads, artwork on rice, world's tallest man's shoes & a ton of other things. In fact, there were so many items in this collection that I hardly believe that we saw everything that was in there. Definitely just a random collection of items, but if you're at all interested in oddities, I suggest checking it out. read more

I've seen this museum probably four or five times in my life while visiting Niagara Falls, and they've renovated it since my last visit! I was excited! Seriously, every time I take a new friend to the Falls, I take them here. As much as I enjoyed the museum, it was getting a little stale. The new additions add a lot to the experience, though. Different oddities from all around the world that you can only see in few other places. There are a lot more interactive exhibits, and a room with spinning, psychedelic colors that make it impossible to cross the bridge to the other side without falling over. I tried, several times....and FAILED. This was possibly my favorite exhibit there. They also added a gift shop that you exit the museum through. There are a lot of tourists traps in the Niagara Falls area, but this is one place that is definitely worth seeing while you're here. read more

In my opinion this is the best one of these on the strip in Niagara Falls. We spent lots of time here, probably and hour +, the kids (13 and 10) loved it. Lots of interesting displays and some cool gimmicks and jump scares. read more

Took my wifey and kids here for spring break. Lots of fun stuff to see here. Didnt care much about the ancient artifact stuff but the brain teaser artwork was really cool.

Kids really enjoyed it. The tunnel was the best! we all went through it several times. Kinda like you're going through a vortex in space or something. the location is perfect. you're on a strip w other touristy things to do w the family. we've been to ripley's at multiple locations as we travel w the children each year. the kids seem to enjoy it everywhere we go. they offer packages as well at discounted prices. you can visit multiple tourist attractions w/o paying an arm and leg read more

This place is great. We learned a lot about shrunken heads, how much hydro power Canada uses and how many museums Ripley has in the world. The gift shop is just as fun. We went later in the evening which wasn't very busy which was nice. It's in a great location and the packages they are selling were decently priced too. read more

I loved this place. Lots of cool stuff to look at. Also lots of stuff to touch. Loved the vortex. I'm sure it was an illusion, but it was making me feel queasy as I was standing on the walk. It was pretty cool though but like I was in back to the future. Some of the stuff in here might be scary for children, but there was a lot of stuff for the kids to do too. read more

Of all the touristy stuff to do on Clifton this is probably the oldest and is my favorite. Fun exhibits and plenty of background info to put it all in context. Hands on exhibits for kids.

This place is super neat and always a hit when I take friends or family from out of town. It has something for everyone - creepy stuff, silly stuff, historical stuff - just really fun and pretty educational. It's kind of like walking through an educational TV show from the 90's. I bought the Ripley's 3-pass. Highly recommend! It was $38 CAD to check out the Odditorium, Wax Museum and 4D theater. All were a blast. read more

This place was great! The exhibits were entertaining, and yes there were things you were to read but there were plenty of areas with videos and funny stuff to see! The best was the part of the museum was the exhibits specifically for Niagara Falls. My favourite was the illusion with the hermit... Still can't figure that one out! They also have the wax hands! read more
