Ripley's Believe It or Not! — Attraction in Panama City Beach

RBION was a nice attraction. It does not have very many interactive sections. Our group paid for the First Class Pass ticket, and honestly, it was not worth it. With the First Class Pass ticket purchase, you are able to do the 7D Moving Theater, the Mirror Maze, and the BION exhibit itself.

My Issues: There are two versions of the 7D interactive games that you can do. We picked one because the line was shorter thinking when we came out we would be able to go back and do the other. We found out after the fact that you are only able to do one version of the 7D interactive game, even with the VIP ticket. Had we known this, we would not have picked according to the line. The game is only about 3 to 4 minutes long, if that. So to pay that much ($39.58 if purchased online $34.99 plus tax if purchased in person) for the ticket to walk around the exhibit, go through a mirror Maze (that was not that long or that exciting and took about 2 to 4 minutes to get through), and do an approximately 4 minute long 7D game was not worth it in my opinion. You should at least be able to do the Maze and the 7D game more than one time with the First Class Pass ticket purchase. The entire experience took approximately 1.5 hours, 2 hours tops.

My Kudos: The 7D Moving Theater was fun. The exhibits were AWESOME!! There were a lot of exhibits that I had never known about or seen before. The Titanic exhibit was great, and so were the oriental boat replicas.

Overall, it was a good time. I don't regret going and saw a lot of cool things. But for a better bag for your buck, Wonderworks, which is located directly across the street, is well worth every penny you spend to go in there. And the upgraded pass is a MUST!!

Cool place. It’s cheaper than the upside down building across the street. I don’t want to give away spoilers, but there are plenty of interesting, unusual, unique, and strange exhibits to see here. Many things are from other countries. Art made of different objects is a big part of it. Replicas of different stuff get mixed in with actual pieces. The Titanic portion is neat, but there aren’t really a ton of artifacts. We’ve seen better Titanic museums. This place is not overly interactive, but there are tons of things to see. We didn’t do the mirror maze or laser race, but we did the “7D” theatre, even though there is no real explanation as to why they consider it to involve 7 dimensions. Their interactive movie with a laser gun is much like the 3D/4D stuff you find at Disney or Universal theme parks, except these chairs, while moving around, were actually stationary. If you’re over the age of 16 and have a choice, choose this place over the upside down thing across the street. Small kids would have fun with some of the stuff at Ripley’s, and maybe the “7D” if they’re tall enough, but our 3 year-old was freaked out and disturbed by some of the stranger things on display. Our 11 year-old was getting bored with it towards the end. Once you’ve seen everything, it’s hard to say you’d actually go back again to see the same stuff, but I would definitely recommend this Ripley’s to...
