History is full of great mysteries, one of which is the adventure of Noah’s Ark. For years, people from every facet of life have weighed in on the nature of the story. This massive structure was an architectural marvel at 510 feet long, 51 feet high, and 85 feet wide. The Ark Encounter reconstruction is based on the dimensions provided in the Bible. It is among the largest wooden vessels recorded in history and is close to the maximum size believed to be possible for wooden ships to float. You will be amazed by this spectacular replica, with three stories of impressive displays showing what life must have been like on the giant boat. This incredible model will spark a new fascination with history and brighten your imagination! Do not wait to book your spot. This tour fills quickly!Day 1:

The Old Friends Retired Horse Farm is where champions can ease into retirement from their impressive careers as racehorses.

After our museum exploration, we will visit the magnificent Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption. From majestic, vaulted ceilings to the world’s largest church stain glass window, it is no wonder this glorious cathedral is known as the Sign of Hope. After a day of education and art, we get some beauty rest at a local hotel.
