Tour Itinerary

Day 1

Cathedral Basilica and Welcome Dinner It’s larger than life, of Biblical proportion, and waiting your arrival: The Ark! A replica of Noah’s original dimensions, the Ark is sure to bring your imagination to life. Your first day’s travels take you to St. Louis. You’ll tour the Cathedral Basilica of St.Louis, where the mosaics are of epic proportions! Dinner is at an authentic Irish pub. After dinner, the rest of the night is yours to enjoy and explore! (D)


Day 2

Lunch at the Bell House and a tour of West Meadow Farms As you head East, enjoy the scenery passing you in the Kentucky hills. Lunch is at the fabulous Bell House, a quaint local hotspot with local homemade cuisine. Then, visit West Meadow Farm and see where horses for the Kentucky Derby are raised and trained on the Kentucky Blue Grass! The baby foals are such a sight to see. The night ends at our beautiful hotel around which you can find restaurants and bars for some grub before resting up for the adventure ahead!  (B, L)


Day 3

The Ark Encounter Today is the day! We travel a short distance to the area and grounds of the Ark Museum. At 510 feet long, 51 feet high, and 85 feet wide (converted to modern measurements), the numbers alone do not express the immensity of this biblical ship. You’ll learn how Noah might have cared for all the animals and how the Ark would be big enough to fit them all on board. See everything from how he might have built the ship, the story of the Ark, and what life may have been like for Noah and his family. The day is yours to explore the park, enjoy lunch and spend time taking it all in. After a full day at the park, head back to your hotel to enjoy an evening of rest and relaxation. Tomorrow we move onto the Creation Museum!  B)


Day 4

The Creation Museum and Farewell Dinner The 75,000 square foot museum cost $27 million to build in 2007! Reflecting young Earth Creationist beliefs, this museum depicts humans and dinosaurs coexisting. This state of the art museum allows you to venture through biblical history, stunning exhibits, botanical gardens, planetarium, zoo, and so much more! At the heart of the Creation Museum is a chronological retelling of Biblical history in seven parts called the Seven C’s. Guests step back in time, beginning with The Creation, and fast-forward to Christ’s return. Later in the afternoon, head towards Indianapolis where you will enjoy a spectacular farewell dinner with the group before returning to your hotel.  (B, D)


Day 5

Travel home Today we journey home. The spectacular journey through biblical times will have moved you and inspired you. The drive home won’t disappoint as there is still fun to be had! Your guide will entertain you with games and movies to help pass the time as we make the journey home to Kansas City and Nebraska! (B)
