We have passed by and never stopped but decided to plan a trip here. It is full of such interesting information. The movie was really informative. Unfortunately, the wings were crazy due to a storm that was coming in, so the outside rim tour was canceled. You could go out on the main deck and see the crater, but you couldn't go to the higher deck. The wind almost knocked me down so I took a couple of quick pictures and went back inside. They have a motion ride that was fun. Everything is included in the price of your admission. They offer a military discount, which was nice. They have elevators, which is perfect for those who are unable to climb stairs. They have a nice cafe that has hot dogs, Philly cheesestesk sandwiches, pretzels, muffins, turnovers, and a lot more. The gift shop was nice and had some great items. You won't find a nicer crater that is preserved. Definitely stop here. Read Less

Privately owned tourist attraction seems a bit weird in the mid desert, expecting a state park experience. Good explanatory museum, a bit of hiking around the rim available. The 4d ride is an experience for the kids, limited information on the Crater, but goofy fun. One price admission is nice. Read Less

One of the best stop me made on the trip. Great for those interested in science and geology. Unfortunately the 70mph winds prevented us from going on the outside tour but the guide gave the same talk inside. We were able to take pictures from the lower viewing platform but the 70mph winds made that exciting. Overall a great place to visit Read Less

Plan on spending at least two hours here to get the full impression of this well put together museum and educational center. There’s also plenty to buy in the well-stocked gift shop. If you like something to eat, even have a restaurant on site! Read Less
