This was so much fun. We spent 3 1/2 hours there and we were never bored. So many hands on exhibits and the raptor educational time with the owl and falcon was amazing. Absolutely 100% recommend this for all ages.

I took my grandkids to visit the Museum and they loved it! We learned a lot and they had fun reading about the Ice Age and seeing huge dinosaur’s bones! I highly recommend taking your kids and bring a lunch or eat in their cafe.

The museum was really beautiful and well set up. Food took a little long at lunch time at the food court, but everything else was really great there. Lots of good exhibits and information on display.

The building is architecturally beautiful and well done. It looks to have no expense spared. All the staff that we encountered were kind and helpful. I would say that the most impressive area is the dinosaur exhibit. The thing I noticed is that there is lots...Read More

I love this museum! The layout for the second to fourth floor exhibits slowly moves you from floor to floor and is such an amazing use of space for the particularly large dinosaur exhibits. I'm always so interested to see the newest rotating exhibit, too....Read More

Very interesting exhibits, especially the geology (rocks and gems) and paleontology (fossils and dinosaurs). You could spend all day if you wanted to read most of the displays like my wife likes to, but if you just want to take a good look at most...Read More
