    My daughter and visited Branson for college spring break and this theatre and the Queen Esther show were spectacular! The sets, costumes, animals, and music were amazing. Also, large restrooms, and loved the cookies from the concession counter.
    We will be back to this theatre when visiting Branson.

    The museum is housed in a massive replica of the Titanic itself, and the attention to detail is impressive. There were personal stories of those aboard the ship, which was pretty impactful. Worth taking the time to see.

    A very fun place to walk around, especially for eating and shopping. There are several boutiques there with unique items to buy. Many restaurants to choose from, including a bowling alley and museum too. However, it can sometimes be challenging to find a parking space. Cool and hip vibe.

    I read positive reviews before booking the Lantern Tour and I'm so glad people took time to share their feedback. We loved it! I didn't even realize this cave was part of Silver Dollar City. We did the lantern tour and our tour-guide, Brian, was hilarious, engaging, knowledgeable and super friendly. This was a highlight for us!

    The displays were done excellently. I loved the Artistry it was done with. The light room and the jelly room were awsome.

    The Presley’s show is outstanding. Great talent. A good mix of country, gospel and Christmas music. The musicians are outstanding as well as the lead performers. One of our favorite Branson shows!!

    This was fun experience! We had intended to go to Copperhead Coaster but it was having issues and late opening and we were on a time schedule so drove the 15 minutes to Runaway. There were 4 in our group ages 66-78. The tickets were $20.00 each for solo rider. There are many coupons available so you can save a couple bucks. Take the sign that says ' if you like don't bring it on the ride' literally as my husband's ball cap flew off. oops. The ride does joggle you back and forth quite a bit so be prepared to be a bit 'sore' but its short lived. Yes we would all do it again!

    This was such a good light display. You definitely get your money's worth out of it. Then the petting zoo at the end was amazing. So much fun. The only regret I have is not buying the interactive animal experiences! They looked fun! Much better than last year. I will keep going every year.

    We started in the reptile room for about 30 minutes because the kids enjoy watching them barely move. lol Next, the forest mirror room was a lot a fun for 3 generations. We went through it 4 times. So many butterflies in the butterfly room. It was memorable experience watching the kids excitedly awaiting for the butterflies to land on their flower or shirt. They also had the opportunity to let a butterfly loose to take it's first flight. AAA discount offered here. Ample parking. Wheelchair accessible most areas.
