I really enjoyed my visit to Ripleys - NYC. There are lots of interesting and fun exhibits in the museum. Some of my favorite exhibits were the Paduang women, Shrunken heads and the Torture devices. Theres also alot of unique artwork throughout the museum.

Its not bad but its not great. I do feel like its a bit run down and a lot of things that you can look at our bit stale. Maybe I was looking for a little bit more interaction. Although my son did like itself plus one star for that

Super fascinating exhibit. Reccomend doing the wax museum as well.

Great place to visit and lots of things to see

Fantastic place for some fun and real interesting facts!!! Went with my kids. All ages enjoyed the experience

This place was really cool! I really enjoyed going there right before it closed down. I learned a lot of unique info. I wish there was more interactive activities and I hope that is implemented when they open back up.

Cool place to see weird stuff

Happy to have taken my child here, was not disappointed and used promos online for discount.

Not fit for kids. Many horrible exhibits. The other stuff though was great and interesting

Great family fun, with plenty of weird and interesting artifacts. Would definitely go again.

Such a fun vibe! Its an experience for everyone! Very interesting, educational, and strange. My kids, 12, 7, and 5 had a blast.

I was hesitant about going to this place because it was at least after 9pm after we finished exploring Madame Tussauds as I really wanted to go back to my hotel room and rest but mother and the rest of my family urged to go anyway. Im glad they did. This was a really enjoyable experience. Since it was after 9pm and on a weekday, there werent many people, which was completely fine by me. This museum was so cool with all its wacky stuff and cool facts. It was so amazing to explore all the crazy things and you will really learn a lot from this place. Definitely a must place to visit if youre a tourist in New York whos probably living on the other side of the globe.

Only seen items on tv previously and was blown away by the amount of exhibits on show.Well worth a visit

I have been to the Ripleys in Atlantic City several years ago, which I thought was pretty neat. This Ripleys is even better. It has a lot of interesting exhibits and little activities throughout. I would recommend tourist or just native New Yorkers such as myself to check this place out while in the City.

Very nice place you can definitely come here with your friends, family and kids. Dont forget to check on Groupon, I got the good deal on Groupon. You can spend here easily 1.30 to 2 hours. There are various activities for adults and kids. Black hole and smasher game both are major attractions.

I visited Ripleys with family and everyone enjoyed it and had a good time there.Few of the things were really nice and eye catching. I believe its little expensive as compared to what it offers.

Ive been here two times thus far, and its always a quality experience. Everything they have is almost strange, unbelievable or even, out-of-this-world! But their price is so damn high compared to the experience. The thing I found most interesting was the tsantsas from the Jivaro tribe in Ecuador -some peculiar history indeed!

I was expecting a crowd on a Sunday, but that was not the case. Lots of interesting things to see and do. The exhibits varied quite a bit from funny to scary. There was a laser room, but it appeared to not be working that day. The was also a game to test your speed in turning lights off, really fun. Lots of photo opportunities. The tunnel at the end is amazing in trucking your mind into thinking you are spinning.

Went here for my sons birthday as part of a NYC weekend. We had a good time. Wait for discount tickets as there is no reason to pay full price. Some interesting things to look at but nothing earth shattering. Fun way to kill 30-45 mins.

The best time for the family. I got there kinda late.but still fun as hell

Fun diversion. Doesnt take up a lot of time. But, you should take your time and absorb every display. Youll find hidden fun things. Look for discounts or groupon before you go.

It looks small from outside but has really so much to offer inside. Kids or grownups, everyone will have an awesome time here. It’s just beside Lady Tussaud museum, very close to port authority terminal and Time Square.

My son had a blast here. I just wish it was a little better organized and there were directions on what order to follow. You get stuck waiting on other people in some areas, and other areas are completely free of people. Definitely take advantage on the coupons online. I saved 40% just by buying the tickets online.

Had a great time, and is definitely worth a visit. Dont rush through, as its quite small. Do all the activities, and you will enjoy your time out from the hustle and bustle of NYC.

What an awesome adventure! Really fun and some interactive stuff keeps the kids entertained.

Loved the baseball memorabilia and the shrunken heads. Four stars only because it is way to loud and its hard to become intimate with the exhibits. Pictures are sand lighting, hall of fame bats and a shrunken head.

Ive been here a few times and its always a pleasant experience. Today I went with my 6yr old son again and it felt like a new experience for him. He loved and I loved it. We took our time through the exhibits and lasted about 2grs from start to finish. Its definitely a cool fun experience to check out at least once. Staff is friendly and check in process is super easy and quick. It is self guided.

One of the best Ripleys Ive been too thus far ...Atlantic city and florida keys needs to step up there attraction!!

Very interesting. I thought it was small, but found little rooms that extends. Good place to visit especially if you need a indoor day.

This was a cool place to check out. I likes the layout and how they utilized the space they had. For little kids it was just interactive enough to be good for the little ones and interesting to the older crowd.

Unforgettable experience if you re visiting NYC, dont forget to pay a visit to Ripleys Believe it or Not. At least away from the crowded outside, you can enjoy and get experience on alot of weird things displayed in here. Some of the things really blow-out yr imaginations.

One of the most visited attractions in the New York city.not that wow one but it does have some unique experience. Good for a one time visit and kids friendly.

Ripleys museum is quite the treat. For the price of admission, I would say that the experience is worth it. There are many artifacts and interesting records to view and read about from the moment you step in. Definitely a fun place to check out with family and friends when youre in Times Square. Highly recommended.

I went ina bit hesitant thinking that this would be a gimmick since I had never been to any one of their museums. I have to say that I had a blast. Saw some really creepy things and played some really fun games.

I was not really a fun of this museum, but I went there with my three kids and we had a blast: It is a crazy place, and they loved it! It looks like an 1800 Circus storage place, with quite few strange things mixed up together (even a black hole!). Thank you for the experience!

Carpet could use some cleaning but the place stays open late and great things to see! Great pictures from this place!

Awesome place, not sure if the admission price was that worth it tho.

This was my families first time visiting. What an experience! So much to see so many cool things to learn about. You can actually get lost in this place. The black hole was our favorite even though we were all dizzy for a little bit.

We decided to stop in on Christmas Day and we are so glad we did. We were able to enjoy al of the different displays without a ton of people there. The exhibits are very unique and was worth the price of admission. There were things to see and do that we’re for all ages. Check out my pictures to see. We also decided to go into the escape room. It was a great experience and would recommend it if you have kid’s. We were so happy to watch them all work together to get out! Our guide was very helpful and patient with them and we enjoyed every minute. Thank you to all of the staff! You made our holiday one we won’t forget!!!

Good laugh to be had here, right next to everything on that street, down the road from Times Square great laugh with the family and brilliant memories to take away!

This place is always fun to visit. It has creepy stuff and fun stuff and id highly recommend

Would definitely recommend this if you are looking for something fun to do for an evening. Had such a great time and also found a great deal on Groupon! Definitely give it a try!

Super cool place to visit in New York! Right off Times Square! Great way to spend an afternoon!

This place is sooo cool. You want something fun to do in NYC this is it. I think we paid about $35 per person to get in but once youre in its totally worth it!

Great time. Amazing place to visit.

Tons of fun! I have been to the Ripley’s in many cities and since many years. It didn’t change a bit, but still very amusing and love seeing how the kids are captivated by each and everything. What a fun way to spend an afternoon with the kids. There was an incidence this day which threw me off a little. The lady overcharged us an extra ticket, which I didn’t realized until after we got in. It took a while to get reimbursed. She didn’t even seem remotely sorry or surprised? Which made me question, “is she is doing this often and intentionally?” Another thing that bothered me was that it didn’t seem very clean and many of the props felt a bit sticky. All in all, very entertaining for the kids and they loved it.

Interesting but a bit slow at times. Some exhibits had computer errors in screen.

Very fun! Definitely worth the trip. Lots of interactive exhibits

We really enjoyed this place while we were in New York. If you’re ever in the city this is one place to go. Very good information nice displays and fun time. The very good time was well spent. There was so many displays you will have to go and experience yourself. We were both in awe, curious and shocked at the many unique exhibits in this museum. It was a huge hit with my family and we would highly recommend this experience. Note: Some content (torture room) is not age appropriate for some but overall, the exhibits were family friendly.

We had a great time. Bigger then we thought it would be. Not as expensive for a downtown NYC attraction.

Great if you haven’t been before... they need to update the exhibitions more often.

Best place in New York, hands down! They have so much to do inside that you wouldnt believe it . From facts about record smashing super humans to fun interactive stations, this is definitely a great and unique place to bring your kids, or just go yourself! You also get to spend as much time as you want in there (granted they arent closing for the day soon) and really be amazed by the world around you...

In my opinion, only worth it if you bought the combo ticket from Madame Tussauds. Ripleys has always been a show about the weird and the Odditorium is no exception. Some off-putting and creepy exhibits, but certainly unique. Not a place I found myself taking too many pictures in.

Lovely eating places. Like the villa style feel. Need more lighting and attractions for the kids

Wonderful to go around in this area

Excellent place to visit. There is always something for all interests there. If you go early on weekdays, you can avoid the huge crowds that frequently show up on weekends and you can enjoy the sights without feeling rushed.

A definately must visit place. While walking through the museum you learn a lot! Amazing things, unbelievable facts - all have a historical proof. You can easily spend few hours by discovering the past and seeing things you never knew that existed!Enjoy)

Always wanted to visit a Ripleys and it didnt disappoint. Need to visit another now

Ripleys museum contains a really rare pieces of humans activity through centuries and different countries

Got through in 20 min. Most of the ‘attractions’ are gross, and overpriced. Some were interesting to look at, and I enjoyed the “Black Hole” illusion (which lasted around 2 seconds). Definitely not a must-see.

Wonderful collection of historical curiosities that you will walk out definitely believing it! Take the time to read the descriptive plaques and youll get even more value from the walk-through.

This has lots of things which we dont believe it exist.. Next to the wax museum and close to time square.. Wont say a must visit place, if you have a time and nothing else to do then ya!!

Oddities and interesting items. Big, small, short, tall weird, strange, neat,… yes replace believe it or not is a cool place and a great place to take the family.

This museum is amazing, and walls were painted in an excellent way and even drawn nicely. Its like painters took an extra effort to design the walls. I got to learn some unbelievable facts and about extremely talented people and its a lot like the Guinness world of records. I would still suggesting adding a movie theater with Ripleys believe or not films.

There place had a bit of an odor when I last went. Process are really high but it is New York and it is a tourist attraction. Other than that this place was very fun with loads of interesting pieces. A must go if your in New York and have the cash to spare.

Believe it or not, you better believe it.Love informations of real life story. Really good and something hard to believe.Worth to visit at lease once.

The stories are quite interesting - you get to hear about fascinating people. Visiting this right after Madame Tussauds was a letdown though, as the figures are a lot less detailed.

Great experience. Took my son for his 9th birthday. I loved it more than he did lol. Would definitely go again to see whats new.

My Girl and I loved this place. You would definitely need two hours to get through the entire exhibit. Its just a lot of fascinating oddities. I highly recommend you seeing it and experiencing the walk through for yourself. You will learn a lot and the tour is well paced. Buy your tickets online for the best deal.

I have visited several Ripleys and they are mostly the same. This one is fun and is located close to time square. We enjoyed our time there, one of the guest in our party has never been to a Ripleys and I think he really enjoyed it.

A cool place to take your kids and we had fun in general,I wouldnt pay the full price though as its pretty expensive and they normally have coupons and discounts online.

Such a cool place for some amazing and astonishing talents! Fairly priced, take your time and enjoy the detail!

We had fun and spent about an hour and a half here but I’m not sure if it was quite worth the price.

I went with my 11, 10 and 5 year olds. Each one of them enjoyed the trip and none of them were BORED. We had a great time and a great experience.

I had a great time touring Ripleys Believe It or Not in New York City on May 23, 2018. I enjoyed reading all the historical information that was included in each exhibit. I took my time and enjoyed every minute I was there.

We came not really knowing what to expect, and were delighted by the variety of exhibits and interactive displays. Many interesting things, to name just a few... the postage stamp mural, the John Lennon portrait made from dog hair, Darth Vader made from staples, many more things I thought were worth seeing!Enjoyed and would recommend visiting!

Cool place you learn interesting facts! Buy tickets online to save 20%

Was not impressed. Many items were a bit gore, the place was badly laid out and frankly, unless you are paying less than half of the advertised price, its not even worth it. I would not recommend this place for younger children either, my 8 yr old could not get out fast enough

Really cool place to visit. Walked past this place 1000 times and finally checked it out. A lot of interesting things.

This was the most fun I’ve ever had in my college days. There was a lot to do and see and experience! The staff was friendly and everything there was amazing! You won’t be disappointed and it’s def something worth doing if you’re in New York .

Amazing place to find some exceptional unrealisitic feats or deeds that human or animals have achieved. Dollar 50 fees for both Madame Tussads museum and Repleys museum is worth it and explorable.

It was a joyride visiting the Ripleys museum and the overall experience was quite fulfilling.Price - Usually the tickets cost about 25 bucks but if you buy deal from Groupon you can get it fir just 15. Plus there are combo deals for Madame Tussauds and Ripleys.Location - Situated on the famous theater or the showbiz street which is 34th street. AMC is also nearby.Accessibility - If coming from NJ then taking the path train to 33rd street would be best and then walking. If taking subway then you can get down at 34th street station.Fun element - I would give it a 5 on 5 as it was a wall down the memories of childhood and it will bring the kid out of you. ( Rest you can judge from the pics I added ;) )Learning - You would get to know significant astonishing things about the world wonders.Time needed - Even if you stop by each item of display and do some fun along with it, you should still be done in 3 hours at the maximum.At last I would say, it was a great one time experience and is a must visit for kids and refresher for adults.

Cool place to check out but not really worth the price of admission. I was lucky and had a friend who took me with a free pass he had. Interesting exhibits and cools facts.

Definitely a fun museum to visit! Very interactive. I mostly had fun watching these two silly guys. Lol

Love the place great for the fam

Hard to get bored once youre in here. The exhibits are over the top and most things bring out the curious intriguing side of you. Funny and Informative.

Lots of fun very interesting

Lots of unique and interesting things to see, but much of the stuff is also made a little over-dramatic to make it sound cooler than it is.

Absolute bummer!!! Expected a lot more interesting things in this place

Absolutely a tourist trap. It would be entertaining and fun for half the price, perhaps. But for what it is, you cant help but think about how much money you threw out on it.

Today was the first Christmas eve that I have been able to have with my wife after 10 years of being together. I planned a full day with her so, after our awesome dinner, the last plan of the day was going to Ripleys Times Square, the place where we first met each other.I called several times to the business, checked online, and everywhere else. Everybody told me that today the closing time was 11pm. We arrived at 9.50pm, so they told us that they have closed already and we could not go inside.That was totally unbelievable. How could that be possible? You have ruined all my night. I know that tonight the schedule could be different but, if you say everywhere that you close at 11pm, you should be able to stick to that.We are so disappointed. We usually go to Ripleys in other cities and evertime has been great. We cannot beliveve this could happen to us. What a terrible management team is running the TS location...Thank you for ruining our first Christmas eve together, you did an extraordinary amazing job.Happy Holidays!!

Tons of options for coupons and discounts which is always nice. Place was clean and had many interesting things to see and learn about.

We had a great time. Many strange and fun things.

This is amazing all of the interesting artifacts are amazing.

Lots of things to see, great pass time for adults and kids

Super cool. Would have thought this to be a tourist trap in time Sq. So worth the trip for locals as well as the visitor to NYC. Did a sleep over with the scouts. Great tome

This place is full of amazing things. Some are not suitable for young kids though. Entry is a bit expensive. Best part is the dark hole.

Very interesting, Excellent place to visit. The very good time was well spent. A lot of interesting things to see, Great collection. The very friendly and helpful staff though.

Had so much fun! Definitely a lot of interesting facts!

Really cool place inside, the have a lot of things to see. Also they have a tunnel that spins, so when you walk through it your equilibrium goes off balance. I went through it the first time and I almost went over the railing. Overall I would definitely recommend.
