This place was outstanding. The staff were out of this world! It reminded us of a well oiled machine. They know exactly what they're doing. The information in this museum is unlike anything else I've experienced yet. We will be returning, and with family. We absolutely love the JFK museum.

I've lived in Dallas all my life and I don't know why I waited until now to go visit this Museum. I loved it, it took me 3 hours to get through probably because I stopped to read just about every plaque of information around. (Alot of reading) I'm glad I let my little one set this one out as I'm sure they would have been very bored by having to read so much which was fine for me I personally don't think it's a kid friendly Museum as some kids tend to get distracted easily and it wouldn't have given me enough time to take in all the photos and the information to read along with them. The staff is very helpful and nice as well.

A very interesting and thorough review of Kennedy's assassination events, I definitely recommend visiting! Safety protocols were excellent with online timed ticket. Be aware there will be lots of reading and more interactive exhibits are unavailable at this time.

A wonderful and educational experience. It was much bigger than I expected and I definitely underestimated the amount of time that I would spend there. There was an audio tour that went along with each section so it was nice to hear as well as read. I learned quite a bit!

Very interesting. It'll take you longer than you think if you actually look at everything, watch the videos, read stuff...take it all in. Definitely a stop for a history buff.
