I can't believe that anyone thinks that this place is not overpriced and is worth it. I was so excited when I saw a coupon and finally went to this place that I passed a hundred times. It looks really cool from the outside, but they have you fooled. I have been here three times, once with a buy one... more

my buddy and I went here a while back, as we frequently travel to AC. If you want to get away from teh gambling for a little while, I'd definitely go here. They had a lot of interesting memorabilia there, and interesting facts. If you can afford to stick a twenty into a slot machine with no thought, then the... more

one of the few things you can do with your kids in Atlantic City. It would be considered over-priced anywhere else, but not here. Loved the matchstick ships and the miniature castle/estate.

This is located on the famous boardwalk in Atlantic City. First, I would say that the boardwalk is not very nice. It is dirty with questionable individuals milling about. It had a carnival atmosphere. ..carnival games, etc. Many boarded up shops. If you'd like to see a nice boardwalk, I recommend the boardwalk in Ocean City, Maryland. Second, we did... more

Overall we felt this was a rip-off for a family outing. Our twin 13-year-olds counted as adults, meaning $12.95 each to visit a smallish museum with traditional exhibits. You can see everything in about 30-45 minutes. I think they can get away with this because there is very little else to do in A.C. with kids. The exhibits themselves were... more

This is the best attraction in Atlantic City. I love it! The casinos are too high for me. They don't take dollar bills. In this place you can see cool stuff for as long as you want! more
