Reviews
"An excellent opportunity to witness firsthand the destructive power of encounters with cosmic objects. This place transports the imagination to distant galaxies, leaving behind a sense of awe in the face of the vastness of the universe. It will be fascinating for anyone interested in space. The ticket price includes a film screening about crater formation and a guided tour."
"Very cool experience. Definitely do the tour (included in your ticket price). You get to hike along the rim where the general public can not go."
"The cost was surprising to us ($29 per person )but we found this place from the highway and had no advanced info, however, they have a fun activity for kids that gives them a prize at the end and the exhibits were very cool. We didn't watch the video or do the guided tour so can't speak to those."
"It's very cool to see the crater, and the guided tour gives you an exclusive better view of it from a tour-only pathway. It was more expensive than we had expected, definitely a bit of sticker shock on that one. Friendly staff and a short but interesting museum portion."
"This place was great! My son is very interested in space and natural wonders so he has been asking to visit since we moved to Arizona. I didn't think I'd be impressed with a hole in the ground, but it was awe-inspiring. I loved how there were so many ways to view the crater and the surrounding views. But the museum is what really made this trip worthwhile to me. So many interesting exhibits and lots of hands-on activities. The gift shop was very nice also. I think the price is fair considering how much there is to see and do. We spent about 3 hours here. And they give a nice discount for military and veterans."
