Definitely recommend šŸ‘Œ We did the planetary experience and walked around the dinosaur exhibit. You could spend hours walking around. We will be back. Another gem in NYC.

This is an excellent museum, it is one of the very best in the world. There are dozens / hundreds / thousands of reviews online telling you how great the museum is. But - I'll add some negatives / and notes to help others. The outside queuing is chaotic and annoying. We had a buggy, there was a member of staff walking along the line, at no point did he tell us we could have gone down the ramp rather than carried up the steps. Similarly, at no point, until we got to the top of the steps, with our buggy, were we told that there was a different line for people who had already got 10am entry tickets. There was no sign posts indicating either the ramp for people with buggies (or in wheel chairs etc), nor for people who had already bought 10am entry tickets online. Better signage would mean smoother queues and for us in particular less time stood in the unseasonably hot morning sun. Aside from that, the museum is magnificent - although one final minor niggle was that quite a few areas were looking a little unloved, from certain angles the thick layers of dust on the back of the dinosaur skeletons was quite visible.

When we arrived at the museum we were told our tickets bought through a third party needed to be validated by a counter person so they could give us actual tickets to enter. They did send us to a different line than the ticket line, however, we still had to wait 45 minutes on line to get the Viator tickets validated. This was very disappointing. We bought the tickets ahead of time purposely to avoid having to wait on a line.
