The general exhibition area is available for $25. The unique ones cost $35. The best show on the special tickets was Sharks. Parking at the museum is $30, but it's free if you park in the Herman Park lot nearby and walk for ten minutes or so. I believe it's worthwhile.

You can spend an entire day here and still not fully take in all they have to offer... I've been here several times and it is worth going back each time. At some point I'd love to go alone so I can give proper undestracted time to talking it all in. That said my 12 year old daughter loves this place. The section of rare rocks and gems is memorizing. It gives you a look at our world that you may have never known existed. You won't regret time spent here. Also, the parks that are adjacent to the museum are an outstanding outdoor experience. Well maintained and curated for a unique experience.

Nice museum. We only had 1.5 hours before they closed. Not enough time to see everything well. Dinosaurs and Egyptian mummies were what we did get to see.

Unbelievable experience. Yes, it’s pricey and the parking garage prices are laughable, so park at the parking lot and walk through the local park. Despite the absurd price of admission this is some of the best crafted collections I’ve ever seen including the museum in London. The Egyptian area was alone worth the price of admission. Just beware. They try to add prices on for practically everything. But don’t let it deter your from an incredible afternoon. Skip the lines and buy your e-tickets.
