We were pushed for time and only had 90 minutes to spare so this wonderful , but huge museum could be very daunting. We had admissions from our 5 things city pass ( very good value) and just needed to sort out a quick slot for entry . A lovely lady near reception suggested we join the next free guided tour at 11:15 to see as many highlights as possible in 75 minutes. Note the museum is huge . Even several days will not do this justice so be realistic in what are your key things to see . The tour was great and Pat our guide was charming and very knowledgeable. She was a volunteer and this was her first tour since covid suspended tours so we were very lucky. It showed us the highlights of the lower ground floor . If we had more time we would have gone up to see the dinosaurs and watch a few of the films . If you have seen the Night at the museum films then just walking through the diorama halls is a great fun thing to do. A great visit and we are very thankful to Pat to showing us the highlights and her favourite things.

Favorite exhibits were the gems and the dinosaurs. Also enjoyed seeing the exhibit on prehistoric human evolution. Completely agree with other reviewers that it’s hard to find your way around the museum due to the lack of adequate instructions. We saw everything we wanted to see in 2 1/2-3 hrs.

Perhaps my expectations were too high since the museum itself quite disappointed me. The facility was full of screaming schoolchildren running all over the place without a guide. Seeing the stuffed animals made me very sad; dinosaurs are better looking at Disney. I honestly couldn't wait to leave , nothing caught my attention. A waste of time and money.
