    HOLIDAY ARK ENCOUNTER & CREATION MUSEUM
    ENCOUNTER THE WONDER OF CHRISTMAS!
    4 Days – 3 Nights

(Sample itinerary – exact times, days, and destinations may vary)

Day 1 – A morning departure from your hometown has you heading to the Northern, KY and Cincinnati, OH area where small-town warmth & hospitality go hand-in-hand with big-city amenities, attractions, and a bit of German fusion. After check-in at your hotel, you will have time to freshen up before departing for dinner at a popular restaurant in the area.

Day 2 – Enjoy a continental breakfast at the hotel, then depart for a visit to one of Cincinnati’s favorite traditions … the Krohn Conservatory where you will see the trains and Christmas flowers. The display manages to place a wide variety of flowers in all the right places; the buildings and iconic features mingle with the trains to create a wonderful display full of Christmas tradition!
Later, you will enjoy a Riverboat Luncheon Cruise along the Ohio River … a memorable, once-in-a-lifetime experience that all of your group will cherish forever. See panoramic views of downtown Cincinnati that you can’t get anywhere else before heading down the Ohio River all the way to northern Kentucky. This afternoon you will arrive in Petersburg, KY to stroll through the Creation Museum’s Christmas Town and the botanical gardens amid the breathtaking display of thousands of multi-colored lights. As you walk through the Garden of Lights, you’ll also encounter one of the Magi, a wise man who journeyed to Bethlehem. And, keep an eye out of Biblical characters telling about their connection with the birth of Christ. You day will end with a special holiday turkey dinner at Noah’s Café.

Day 3 – Following a continental breakfast at the hotel, you will depart for the Newport Aquarium, the only place where you can celebrate the holidays under water at Water Wonderland where you will see Scuba Santa. Water Wonderland blends the thrill of indoor bubble showers and the intimacy of uniquely holiday-themed galleries. The Aquarium transforms into a truly wondrous setting where you can discover the wonder of an undersea holiday celebration. Later, you will visit the Ark Encounter where you will Encounter the Wonder of Christmas Time. Spend the afternoon touring the Ark Encounter where you will also enjoy a Holiday Buffet Dinner at Emzara’s. Scores of exhibits about the Flood, Noah, and the animals are designed to answer your questions about the Biblical account of Noah’s Ark. As night falls upon the Ark, you will encounter the wonder when a world-class laser projection show will depict animals walking up the Ark ramp, the floodwaters rising, a cutaway of the Ark’s three decks, and the Christmas message in a striking fashion will light up the side of the massive Ark as its screen. You will also have the opportunity to visit one of the largest Fair Trade Markets in the country.

Day 4 – After a continental breakfast, check out and depart for home with lasting holiday memories of
your visit to Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati, Ohio.
