Two stars, ONLY because my two young teen and preteen grandsons did have a good time. NOT a great time, but a reasonably okay time.
My issues were, #1 PRICE! It was outrageously priced for what you get. The display is made up of poster and pictures — similar to those you’d see in an annual Guinness book. It’s like walking thru a couple of pages of the book!
#2, throughout the attraction there are several test your: strength, sexual attractiveness, tell your fortune for a quarter type devices!!! Really! You just paid an outrageous fee to get in and now you need to pony up a bag of quarters to have the full experience of the attraction!!!
#3, many of the «free» electronics/​attractions were out of order!!!
The one upside is that there was a game room that offered «free» games: pac man, and more modern versions. Most of those were in working order. The grandsons liked that room, but I could have taken them to an arcade for a lot less money!
In the end I’d suggest you save your money!!!

Cool place! Went with my wife and kids while on vacation, we all thought it was a well done exhibit. The kids enjoyed themselves with the different interactive activities and my wife and I were amazed with some of the records set and with the people that set them. If you haven’t been its a must do.

My daughter made me do it! It was way above my price range but I did get a locals discount. For about $ 30 for the both of us we walked into a small space featuring some interesting feats of nature. I was disappointed until we took the elevator upstairs. There’s much more to see and do here. I don’t mind all the reading and I especially loved playing the Simpson’s game in the game room. It provided unlimited lives and we spent most of our time at that machine. While fascinating, I don’t think the price is right for this attraction. It has so much potential for a more engaging experience. Maybe it needs a make-​over from when it opened but I won’t be returning unless I have a free pass.
Also, now that the city purchased this entire block, I’m hopeful that these type of side-​show attractions move off this prime real estate and are replaced with much more authentic San Antonio art and culture.

Went today to escape the cold and it was not worth it! All it is, is poster and pictures on the wall. Hardly any of the interactions work. The best part was the game room and that only had one game that actual worked. Save your money and just buy the book. Two stars because the staff was really nice and helpful.

My wife and I enjoyed going through this. We were on a tight time schedule and could not really spend the time looking at all of the exibits or read all of the plaques on the walls. If you do not like this kind of information overload, then do not go here. If you do like this kind of stuff, you should go. I do not think we will go back with our boys except maybe to watch the clip of the fellow putting live cockroaches in his mouth, just to creap them out a bit :)

We did the 3 star deal with the tomb rider, haunted house, and the museum. NOT WORTH THE MONEY! Museum was ok but you can read about everything in a book from the library for free instead of reading the walls of the museum for a fee. Do yourself a favor and skip the Ripley block. You’ll be happier getting drinks at a near by bar :-D

Yawn. We got tickets to the Guinness museum in a deal that also came with the Tomb Rider and Haunted House attractions. While the Guinness museum is definitely the most time consuming, it is also the most boring. Most of the museum consisted of reading plaques about world records that aren’t very interesting at all. Most of this information could be obtained by a simple google search, or buying the Guinness World Records book. There are also a few «interactive» exhibits, but most of these were either not working properly, or complete relics from the 1990s. This museum deserves a world record for most boring $ 21.00 you could ever hope to spend. Avoid at all costs.

Do you love to read? Well, this is the place for you! Information OVERLOAD!!! Ain’t nobody got time for that! While it started off fun, it became monotonous and boring.
Fun facts and interesting interactive material, but you need an update, Guinness!
Also, EXPENSIVE! $ 21!?!

It is over priced, but it’s an amusing enough place to wander around in.
It does kind of suck that many of the ‘interactive’ exhibits were out (windows XP desktops such for some of them) some of the game controllers in the game section were also nonfunctioning.
If they maybe charged $ 10 less, they wouldn’t disappoint so many people.

LOL just don’t waste your time and fall into this tourist trap!
For the $ 20 something dollar admission… you can totally use that to buy the book and read it yourself!

I only went because they added it for only a dollar to the price of admission for the haunted house. This place would not be worth paying full price, don’t do it, spend the cost of admission on the book because that’s basically all this is. There’s no real exhibits, just facts from the books posted on the walls with pictures.

Me and 3 friends paid 23 dollars each to see the exhibit, and play the shooting game.
Pros: generally clean. Very nice staff.
Cons:
The exhibit was 10 years out of date on several facts. «China has the largest prison population», «the gameboy advance is the most powerful portable gaming system in the world»… etc.
Most of the interactive exhibits were broken, over-​used, and neglected.
Most exhibits were placards on the wall, peppered with shameless 25 cent «how good of a lover are you?» Gimmick machines.
Thoughts:
We got our money back in full without any argument and we were on our way to spend our money on something worth it. Corporate should treasure their employees who are paid to bold-​face tell people its worth it.

I’m a little disappointed with this place. Perhaps it could be the fact I entered Ripley’s before this place. It all had the exact same stuff in it.

This place is exactly what everyone below says… A rip off. $ 20/​pp (that would be $ 80 for our troop) to look at facts that I read on wikipedia two years ago. Avoid as if your tickets for entry are covered in the plague and/​or a flesh eating virus.

I could make the same museum in my garage. Honestly the book is better, at least all the pictures and facts are in one spot instead of written and posted all over walls. The only reason I came here is b/​c we bought the combo gift. All the displays were rubbish and the video games were all broken. This honestly is probably around b/​c of the buy 3 deal. Who on earth wouldn’t demand a refund after paying actually money to come in here and it being what it is. Save your time, it sucks.

I am planning to buy some encyclopedias, cut out all the pictures and text, laminate them and paste them on my living room wall. I will then charge everyone 20 bucks entry. But since I will be offering beer as part of the tour, I think my new «Amazing Encyclopedia Den» will be at least one star better.
Don’t waste your money at this place. Unless you prefer to read the exact same stuff as in the book in public. Or you could just buy the book and sit down in front of the Alamo for the same public-​reading experience.

BORING. Facts printed on walls, no actual «Guinness World Records» things to look at that you’d expect when you hear the word «museum.» Save your money.

Austin, TX
Absolutely dreadful!!! :(
It’s like someone has just printed out facts from the internet and pasted them on the walls. You’ll occasionally come across a vaguely interesting statue, and the whole fake town layout thing is pretty cool, but all of this becomes meaningless because…
THE FACTS ARE ALL OUT OF DATE!!!
You’d think with an exhibit where all you basically have to do is change some posters every now and then, they could manage to keep it updated, but no; everything is pre 2000!
Maybe if this was kept up to date it would be ok… but I’d rather just get the book or go online. Go to «Ripley’s Believe It Or Not» instead. At least their stuff stands the test of time a little better and they have some actual objects to look at, instead of photos of them.

Terrible, Bad, Sucked, Boring… Uneventful
It’s copies of the facts that are amazing on a wall.
The only cool thing to expect is…
1. Picture next to tallest man
2. Video Game show quiz
3. puzzle challenges?
4. The End

Over-​rated. Over-​priced. not really any true exhibits like I expected to see (like say the actual world’s largest fingernail clipping collection). It is more like a walk through the book with facts posted on the wall, and a few examples of exhibits (just not the actual thing). The video game part they hype up sucks because many of the controllers are actually broken… but at the end of the day the Kids in our group had fun.
