Day 2 – Full Day at the Ark – With Two Gospel Shows
After breakfast at the hotel, enjoy a full day at the Ark Encounter, an experience like no other. From the moment you turn the corner and the towering Ark comes into view, to the friendly animals in the petting zoo, to the jaw-dropping exhibits inside the Ark, you’ll experience the pages of the Bible like never before. This marvel of engineering is seven stories tall and is a football field and a half long. It is the largest timber frame structure in the world. Get ready to experience close-up encounters with stunning animals; some life-like recreations from Noah’s day and many living and breathing animals from today. There is so much to see and do. Explore the Ark Encounter with its state of the art exhibits, visit Ararat Ridge Zoo’s exotic animals, ride zip lines reaching up to 50 mph, ride a camel, plus much more!
Included with your visit is the world’s largest music festival. 40 Days & 40 Nights of Gospel Music at the Ark – features multiple concerts daily from Award Winning Artists like The Isaacs, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound, Lynda Randle, Karen Peck & New River, Booth Brothers, Brian Free & Assurance, and many more of your favorites! In addition to concerts, you’ll also hear inspirational messages from sought-after speakers Dr. Jerry Vines, Dr. David Jeremiah, Dr. Johnny Hunt, Dr. Robert Jeffress, Dr. Tim Hill, and more.
The day’s first concert will be 10:00am. We suggest that following it you tour the Ark. Then use your meal voucher at Emzara’s Kitchen for a late lunch, before exploring the rest of the grounds.

Day 3 (now becomes) – Creation Museum – Newport Aquarium – Dinner Cruise
Today begins at the Creation Museum with its state-of-the-art exhibits that allow you to seemingly walk into biblical history. Learn how the Bible, the history book of the universe, provides the starting point for science. Explore their stunning interpretation of the Adam and Eve’s Garden of Eden. Then visit the Tower of Babel and finish your tour by watching the theater production, The Last Adam.
Then discover the wonder of an underwater world at the Newport Aquarium. See thousands of the world’s most exotic aquatic creatures as you waddle with playful penguins, meet rare white alligators, be surrounded by sharks and surprised by smiling stingrays. Encounter thrilling adventures like the first-in-the-world Shark Bridge, where you can cross inches above a tank full of sharks on a rope bridge. Plus, experience the NEW exhibit Shipwreck: Realm of the Eels and explore a long ago-sunken ship and the creatures that call this accidental reef home.
This evening enjoy a two and half hour dinner cruise aboard one of the B. B. Riverboats – the Belle of Cincinnati or River Queen. Take in the skyline, watch the river go by listen to the soft sounds of the DJ and enjoy a fantastic meal. (B,D)
