- Ryan EugeneNovember 13, 2018The largest museum of its kind in the country. Great for those who love bugs and young ones will find it especially captivating. There's a 4-D movie, a cafe to try bug cuisine, and a butterfly garden.Upvoted Nov 26, 2024
- Nicole CheramieNovember 9, 2018Step into the world of the creepy, crawly, and tiny. Explore a zoo of sorts for these interesting creatures, sample treats made with real insects, and don't miss out on the gorgeous butterfly garden.
Christina Tyler WenksMarch 18, 2018Bees, mantids, watching a butterfly emerge from its chrysalis in a hatchery, fluttering beauties sipping nectar and learning about beneficial bugs versus pests... a buzzingly beautiful experience.
Doug WMay 16, 2017It's interesting but considering the size $22.95 per person is a bit over the top. The WWII Museum is only $26 to put things in context.
