Meteor crater and museum was interesting and educational. Guided tours are included in price of admission. Easy guided walking tour with multiple stops and large rocks to sit on while your guide talks. There also a self guided tour with platforms for taking great photos. The museum inside is interesting and will help pass the time until the next tour starts. There a coffee shop/lounge area that is connected to the gift shop. There is also a 4D movie there but it was closed when I was there. On Saturday they have full hikes around the crater but don't offer it on there day's. They also offer a pet Ramado so if you travel with pets you can check them in to cool fenced-in pen and small dog run that is connected to the car parking lot. There is also place for your motor home or RV. It's a separate parking lot next to car parking lot, just follow the signs. We paid about 28.00 for each adult Read Less

Absolutely cool .. though if I'm honest $30+ a person is a bit steep.. but the crater is awesome . Staff was super friendly . There's a decent 4d experience included (best for kids) a short movie about the crater and decent parking. This place is definitely off the beaten path but a gem... I'd say it's the second best hole in the ground I've seen in AZ! Read Less

If you're heading west through Arizona on I-40, take 10 minutes and go see this unbelievable site. This is the best example of a meteor crater anywhere on Earth. The size of it is hard to imagine but it's a mile across. You could put 20 football fields down in the bottom of it and with stadium seating you could have a million spectators if the crater was a stadium. They have a great visitor center that includes a 10-minute movie. It starts every 30 minutes. Very professionally presented. And immaculate facilities. So glad I stopped by Read Less

If you love space and science, this is a must visit. The crater was used by Apollo crews to train to get ready to be on the moon's surface. Pretty amazing that it remains so well preserved. The science center / museum is pretty cool. There is a pretty hefty sized fragment of the original meteor on display as well. It only takes about an hour to see all of the museum and then when you're ready you can take a guided tour of the crater. If you're on I-40 headed out from Flagstaff towards Albuquerque it is a must see. Read Less

Ever since I was a child, we always drove by the turn off to the meteor crater. I was so happy to take my kids there and it was my first experience along with them. The visitor center had a lot of good information. There was an interactive area for kids. There are tours given at certain times. There is also a gift shop and a coffee bar. Seeing the crater was interesting and if you’re afraid of heights highly recommend you take your time or don’t walk down the stairs to see the crater. Otherwise had a very amazing experience. I would like to go back again. Read Less
