Monet: The Immersive Experience - Cincinnati

"I thoroughly enjoyed the Money Immersion Experience. The only difficult part was parking and paying for the parking. It was confusing. I was encouraged to take as many pictures as I wanted! I enjoyed walking through and reading the history of his life and seeing the depictions of his home. I believe the best part was the immersive part. I could have sat there for a couple of hours. But the Virtual Reality is what was the best! I know very little about VR, so I was fascinated. I kept wanting to reach out and touch - evening knowing there was nothing TO touch. The young man that helped me get set up was very kind. I even enjoyed going in and coloring a page! I spent way too much money in the gift shop! haha! I missed the Van Gogh when it was in St.Louis, so I was glad to be able to catch this when I was near the Cincinnati area. If you love the works of Money, I would say, don't miss this."

"Personally, I do not think it was worth the cost and time. For two adults, during the week, we paid almost $80. Plus, the time (and gas!) driving up to Cincinnati from Louisville. It was just okay for me, but I'm comparing it to the Van Gogh immersive experience in Indianapolis a couple of years back. That one was truly amazing (and the tickets included the museum as well). First off, there was no designated parking, so we just used a nearby parking garage (additional cost) after going in and asking where to park. Second, my husband has a disability and when I asked for a wheelchair, they had none, so he had to walk the exhibit. We were able to use the elevator in the back instead of the stairs. The concept of recreating his office and Gardens was pretty cool and my favorite part. One could pose for pictures. The longest part is the projection room where you can sit in these low chairs and watch a transition of Monet's paintings, but there was no audio. There's a VR section towards the end that's extra money, so we skipped it, and a gift shop. We were out in about an hour. If you're from Cincinnati and don't have the extra travel/time cost, then it might be more worth it to you. It was just okay for me."

"Greeted by friendly and informative staff, encouraged to take many photos, then shown the way into a brief history lesson that turned into visually stunning displays with a different experience in every room. The highlight is the projected gallery of Monet through his life, with intricate segways of his work portrayed amongst four massive walls that make you feel like you're living in each stroke of his brush. We enjoyed the virtual reality room for a small extra cost. It was a little added bonus towards the end of our experience. My only suggestion is bringing something to drink, only a water fountain next to the restrooms on the lower level. We spent around and hour and forty minutes here, but would have loved to have stayed all day, highly recommend."

"I went to the Van Gogh immersive experience in a different state, so I had high expectations. We went through the rooms quickly. I would only go if you are a big fan of Monet."

"I went with my daughter. We had a great time. Loved the experience. Loved the room with the bridge n all the flowers in it. Definitely something everyone should experience."
