I am a sucker for old school encyclopedic museums, and this one is pretty iconic in this arena…read more It's eclectic, filled with oddities, and super fun for the whole family. Where else are you going to see dinosaurs, mummys, and a handwritten letter by Elizabeth I? I really enjoyed walking around, exploring, and I know my kiddo did as well. It's in an old building downtown and has loads of charm everywhere you look. 4/5 stars because I thought the kids play area was a bit of a letdown - it felt a bit dirty and neglected. There also isn't a cafe, which I think would be a fun addition if they ever plan on expanding or remodeling. The exhibits were wonderful though, and I thought for the price it was a great deal. Overall I'd for sure go back and if you're the kind of person that enjoys something off the beaten path, or has a love for old stories and a solid diorama, this is the place for you.

HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!! We were sent to Phoenix, Az on one of his worst buses. To start it…read morewasn't really clean, none of the amenities promised per the agreement were available. The fan kept going out anytime we'd go up. AC was barely working. The bus stopped on us in the middle of the high during a high traffic in Albuquerque. Which was a real safety risk. The drivers had to keep pulling over and resetting some switch and the sensor. A supposed to be 18hour trip turned to 24 hrs almost. He owner claimed to have the vehicle looked at in Phoenix, however we faced the same issues headed home. Making this trip very miserable and uncomfortable. The owner took no accountability for the issues and tried to gaslight. The driver especially Jeff Jr were exceptional, and tried what they could to get us there and home. Oh and let's not forget the owner claimed he had a mechanic a hour away from Albuquerque and told us to keep going so we could meet them just to turn around and tell us the bus was German and they don't shave anyone to work on it. Horrible experience.

My wife and I did a tour with Anderson Scandinavian Tours a couple years ago. The tour itself was…read morepretty good, but the good part was mostly because of the tour guide we had - not so much because of Anderson Tours. The biggest negative issues were in the planning part of it. the owner lied to us essentially throughout the planning phase, telling us that our arrangements were being processed - for 7 months. We finally got our flight itinerary a few days before time to leave. Even then, we weren't given seat assignments, and couldn't get seat assignments until we checked in or paid extra for the privilege of buying the seat assignments. Then, we were booked on SAS (Scandinavian Airways). I will do my best to never travel on SAS again. Their seats are so cramped and uncomfortable, and poor service. The leg room and seat width was like on a regional jet, and the seats were hard. It was obvious that Anderson tours had waited until the last minute to get the discounted bookings. Then, to make matters even worse, he booked us on a connecting flight with 30 or 45 minutes between flights with terminal changes. We made it in time to catch our flight (barely), but our luggage didn't make it with us. Then, thanks to the poor service of SAS, our luggage didn't catch up with us for several days (and we were still on our trip). There was no customer service agent to help us at the airport on arrival. we were given a form to fill out, which we did. After that, we could not contact ANYONE at SAS that would help us, and NO ONE would return our calls. Our luggage just happened to show up on the doorstep where we had been staying (listed as temporary while on our trip) as we were leaving town to head back home. 5 days with no luggage and no communications. They didn't even let us know the luggage had been located and was on its way??? I realize that is an issue with SAS, but Anderson chose to use SAS, and apparently, based on other comments, that isn't uncommon. Also, while in Scandinavia, we had to change hotels at least once or twice, and our tour group had to get split up at least twice - once, the hotels were like a mile or more apart. At least most of the hotels were fairly nice. I would rate most of them 4 star, but I would not rate most of them 5 stars. Also, some of the meals, you have no option what you eat. They bring out the same thing for everyone, and that's what you get. For example, one meal, we got a full rack of ribs - that's it. No vegetable, nothing besides a rack of ribs. Is that a meal??? I have to say though, that at least most of the meals were good food choices, and as I recall, all of the food quality was good. Final item. Be sure to keep your "itinerary" that Anderson sends you when you first look at the trip. You won't be given another one when you arrive for the trip. Since we booked our trip several months in advance, I had forgotten that I had seen an itinerary (very vague and basic) when we left for the tour. I found out when I was talking to another tourist in the group who had brought her itinerary with her. Overall, if it wasn't for the tour guide, I would rate the experience 2 stars. Our tour guide definitely helped a lot. If you don't get as good of a guide as we had, you will likely not be happy.

This is a pretty sweet place to stay if you're vacationing or driving through Kansas. I stayed here…read morefor 2 nights a few years ago and had a great time with my family. Each staff member we came across was so nice and seemed like they truly enjoyed their job. I mean who wouldn't when you're dealing with animals? There are several different rooms that you can choose from when booking and each one has a different theme. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. There's lots of space and we were comfortable throughout our stay. Since this place is really out in the middle of nowhere it doesn't seem to get much business because there was only one other family that was there when we were. It's nice and quiet and you can get a feel of what life is like for these workers. I loved that we were able to get a little tour the next day and feed some animals for breakfast. The goats are so fun and the kangaroos were cool to see up close and pet. They had lots of other animals and it was cool to see what all they were working with. Overall, this is a fun stay if you have kids or just want to have some fun at a small zoo for a few nights.

Sadly the staff here are a bunch of thieving drug addicts. They're told to hide when tours are…read moregiven so no one sees his strung out employees. On top of that the animals are confined to pens that are far too small for them. Are made of nothing but dirt. No greenery. Just dirt and not enough room to roam. The giraffes should have 3x the amount of room to roam. Their shelter isn't even tall enough for them to enter. They have to duck down entirely toooooo far too try to get inside. The kangaroos also are kept in dirt enclosures to small for as many as there are inside. The pigs also are kept in tiny spaces made of dirt, completely surrounded by trash and debris. I was out there one evening and they had absolutely not one drop of water for two pens containing atleast 10 pigs per pen. No water and wouldn't be watered again until between 9 am and 1 pm the following day. No water...in the heat. Almost all animals on the farm are only fed once a day and the rations aren't near enough to fully feed all the animals in each pen.I have pictures and videos of a zebra that was bashed across his nose splitting it completely open by an employee who is nearly always drunk at work. The ostriches are used to run races with grown men on their backs. Their spines are not strong enough to carry the weight of an adult male. Their spines can be broken due to this. Also a fact! Joe himself is constantly screaming at and degrading his employees. Nowhere near professional. This place could one day be an amazing tour spot but it would take new owners and a complete revamp for the animals to be treated and taken care of like they should. These animals are not taken care of like they should! You can google how the animal enclosures are too small and that they should not just be left in dirt! Do better Joe! You should be ashamed of yourself.

I visited south central Kansas recently. If you asked me what I most remembered about my visit, I…read morewould say "ghosts" and "Ellinwood Underground Tunnels." If you're in Ellinwood or anywhere near this area, you need to take the tour. It's so interesting! There are tunnels under this small Kansas town, and the public (you) can experience them. The tour will lead you through a portion of the network of tunnels, and the tour guide will tell you all about the history. The tour starts at the Ellinwood Emporium, a charming little thrift/vintage store. You'll descend some stairs to the underground tunnels, where you'll learn about the activity that was happening in the tunnels in the late 1800s. The tunnels were a place to get a haircut and a shave, a place to bathe, a place to shop and relax. But also: Apparently, some stuff went down and now the tunnels also house spirits. There's one room that you'll see on the tour that the owner will not walk into, because there's a spirit in there that he doesn't want to mess with. Each room that you see on the tour is grim and creepy. The space in the Ellinwood Tunnels is heady, and is definitely housing some sort of bad energy, if you ask me. Head's up: This tour is not wheelchair- or stroller-friendly. You need to be able to climb down and up some steep stairs, and then navigate your way through tunnels, which have uneven ground.

It makes me sad that there aren't many reviews for these underground tunnels (outside of Yelp as…read morewell.) This was one of the most fascinating things we did while visiting this part of the country and I really wish that it was more of a destination. Listen, I understand. It's kind of in the middle of nowhere and the square footage is pretty low. However, Rick, the guide and owner (??) of the antique shop that sits above one portion of the tunnels is an incredible story teller and he has actual items that lived in and were used in the underground portion of this town. It's like a time capsule. I've been on other underground tours (like in Seattle) and even though they're more visited and more well known, they don't hold a candle to what Rick has. This isn't a kitschy, fake tour. This is about real and actual history, with real, appropriate artifacts and I loved it. The tour when you come back upstairs and head across the street to the hotel is a little bit different. The building, including the underground, was empty when they purchased it so all the items they have down there are found, bought or donated. But at least they are honest about it and don't make up fake stories for you. It's such a cool thing to do for such a minimal fee. I'd recommend this tour to anyone.

The gift shop is so little and that is fine but it is difficult to herd the guests and the tour guide we had was really knowledgable. The house is nice and I think the normal tour is the one people should opt for because it covers what you want anyway. The best part, they accommodated us last minute and I really appreciate that. I wish that the gift store had enamel pins :)

I must applaud the flexibility of the staff. I booked an 11:30 tour as the 1pm only had 1 spot left. I called the morning and they allowed us to change and take the 1pm tour instead which allowed us to make everyone happy and take care of our responsibilities. Huge house with a lot of history - in terms of Wright homes, I would put this in the upper half of the ones we have toured. Lots of family history pieces and extra information included - though the other people taking the tour were so concerned with showing how intelligent they were in a falsified humble manner - it took away from the experience. Tour guide with the glasses and white hair was great. Informative and good natured all around. Another one off the list.
