Its pretty neat to see. Recommend taking the 45 minute guided tour. Dress for the weather if you do. The museum exhibit is good an informative. There is also a little snack shop with some sandwiches and beverages. The gift shop is pretty good a well. Read Less

Very interesting historical find. Yes this is a cool site, but their museum that showcases all things meteor, volcanic, meteorite, etc was very very interesting. We took the tour, the 10 min theatre and walked to all 3 viewing locations. It was a 2-3 hour stay to see everything in a relaxed way. Read Less

This was another pretty cool stop along the way on our cross-country road trip. We were here for a good 90 minutes, there's a lot to see within the walls of this center. Very informative, with interactive displays and such. You can go outside and view the crater from a few different platforms. There was a line of about 20 people when we arrived but you get through that pretty quickly, and then you can pretty much go in and see what you want and start where you want. Read Less

We had a fantastic time. Like it's much more popular neighbor, the Grand Canyon, this landmark has to be seen in person to appreciate. Spend half a day and enjoy the drive! Just fuel up first. Read Less

Interesting museum dedicated to meteoric study. The landmark itself is amazing, and the documentation and historical overview most informative. There is also a 3D Simulation ride/film that is quite fun. Staff in the gift shop were engaged and enthusiastic. A most pleasant side trip off the highway. Recommended. Read Less
