I wrote this in hopes to save someone else and hour drive or more. I would have never guessed that in the tourist capital of the world a theme park would be closed. It ruined our last day, by the time we got back it was 1 pm. More

Easter weekend 2012, my family and I visited the HolyLand Experience for the first time. We enjoyed the shows that we were able to catch, the staff was very friendly and the food was great! If you are looking for a different Orlando vacation spot, you might want to check this out. Please know that for those who want to... More

When I heard that TBN took this park over, I was leary to go. What a disappointment and a let down it turned out to be! My husband and I actually have been to the Holy Land which was wonderful. But even if we had never gone to the real Holy Land, this place is still a fake disaster. First,... More

My sister and her husband, along with my husband went to the Holy Land Experience with great expections. When we arrived, our first opinions of the buildings, animals, and costumes , were that they were very over done. We found it offensive due to it's oppulance. The mirrors, sequins, crystals, metallic fabrics, golden furniture, and cardboard cutouts left an unsavory... More

This is well worth a visit...they have just opened the Church of the Nations....there are several very good presentations to see. However.....I do not recommend it to families for young children as there is very little to interest them. The food service and selection is very poor....you are not allowed to take in coolers or your own food......I would recommend... More

Went to the Holy Land with my friend and his family. I have heard about it and always wanted to go. I think the concept is awesome! You are in the tourist capital of the world and they should capitalize on that. There was not that much for us to do. The shows were good but I think there should... More

when we first arrived, the place seemed to be WOW... but when we were inside, it was nothing but nice place to take pictures.... I think they should add some rides or something more than just mini shows. Not very good for young children. More

We really enjoyed our visit to the Holy Land park. Only problem is that we only allowed about 4 hours there. Could of used a few more! The shows were lovely & the staff could not of been nicer. Wait until you see the Chuch of all Nations - WOW - BEAUTIFUL. More

I had a pleasant day but....TBN all the way (glitzy) but had some good teachings and informational demonstrations. If you are bothered that the story of the nativity includes the wise men you're the type who will need to be able to lay aside your purist tendencies and just go with the flow. The positive is they are truly trying... More

My family went here on Good Friday so there were a lot of people. Lines were pretty long so we mostly walked around. I was expecting to have a nice day, but I really did not like the place. I should have realized that religion + theme park = does not work. Honestly, I did not find the place holy... More
