Ark Encounter & Creation Museum

June 13-16, 2024

Greetings friends!

I am excited to assemble this group to see the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. I visited both of these a couple of years ago, and it was an eye-opening educational experience.

For ease of planning, I will detail the trip itinerary and the travel options below. Please read through the information below and then fill out the form, and I will get you information and pricing specific to your family.

As we finalize the number of people in the group, we will add more details to the itinerary below. The size of the group will affect transportation, dining locations, and other activities.

Emzara’s Buffet

Relax with your friends and family on the scenic deck of Emzara’s Buffet, our two-story buffet restaurant, with a spectacular view of the Ark. The restaurant is located outside the Ark, so you will want to grab something to eat before or after you board.

An award-winning buffet-style restaurant with a variety of delicious entrees, salads, and desserts (including food-allergy sensitive options). There’s even a special kid-friendly buffet!
