A Must Do - We spent an interesting and educational cold January day at the museum. We bought our tickets through TripAdvisor on line and walked right in; there was an additional charge for the special Cats exhibit that was worth the price. This was my first visit to the museum. It is large and comprehensive. We spent 5 hours there and did not come close to seeing everything. Plenty to see when we return to Chicago!

What a collection - Wow - what a colelction. The exhibits seemed never ending. Make sure you allow enough time to see everything. Food is very expensive here, so take a snack with you if you can (wish we did). $120 for a small lunch / 4.

Saturday morning with dinosaurs - The dinosaurs did not disappoint. We spent 3 hours at the museum and did not see everything. We spent the most time in the dinosaur exhibits and the Egypt exhibits. The gemstones were beautiful. There was just the right amount of reading and a lot of visual exhibits that would be good for all ages.

Go see Sue! - Loved this!! The dinosaurs were our main attraction but the museum is huge & you could stay here for 3+ hours easily. Great experience.

very good museum - Our family was planning a trip to Chicago and this was part of the "City Pass." Looked fun, we love museums, so decided to add it to our itinerary. It was a very good museum, almost too much "stuff." Whatever your interest, there could be a whole display of whatever that interest is. It was a bit too "static" for my 16 year old son. He enjoyed it, but I think at times was a bit like "how many skeletons can we see?" But there were a lot of interesting displays. When we visited there were large sections covered in brown paper due to something with indigenous people. While I get that, and respect that, seems like they could have taken those items out of the displays for the time being, and closed off a room or something (or displayed something else in their place). I was a tiny bit disappointed as this museum could have been anywhere in the country. I guess I should have expected that, but didn't see much that was directly "Illinois" related. It is still a very good museum, and will probably be on our "to do again" list if we return to Chicago someday.

Great exhibits - Enjoyed the Egyptian exhibit as well as the Hall of Gems. Way too many field trips going on at the same time with little supervision.
