Simply amazing! One of the best things I have ever seen. From the art work, old posters and amazing wagons. The miniatures are too cool. Full review by Frederic M

We did enjoy the circus performance and the music performance. You should offer 2 performances of each show per day. It’s hard to do them all. We didn’t get there early enough for children’s circus. … Full review by pledges

This was a bit of a let down for a family with teenagers. The show was shorter than I expected. They do have more things for little kids to do so would recommend for a family with small kids. Full review by jennifer s

Elephant $10, pony $5, hog photo $5, carousel $3? None are necessary to enjoy the experience. But, you can get the whole hog's worth of your $5 photo with the giant pig - a small child can sit on it while the entire family gets in on the pic. After Labor Day weekend the price decreases, but so does the fun since the animals and live acts all leave. Don't wait, tiger show and big top circus acts are amazing!
Q:
How much do the animal rides cost?
A:
Elephant rides were $10 a person for about a 5 minute ride. That was the only animal ride when we went.
