We can't wait to go back, it was awesomeby Yahoo | 2008-01-25 04:22:37 |

This place is awesome, we took our kids there and they had a blast. The best part is that MILITARY IS FREE ADMISSION. I would recommend the place to everyone I know. If you have to pay full price it is WORTH THE MONEY.

Very nice, LOTS of Dinosaursby Yahoo | 2007-08-23 21:43:29 |

The staff/volunteers are very friendly and helpful. Really cool "Lifestyle" exhibit personalized to each visitor if elect to partake. Lots of Dinosaurs since the Denver area has many fossils. Big minerals and gems exhibit. Small mummy room but still fascinating. Hands on Space exhibit that everyone got into. I did expect a little more but I am used to Field Museum in Chicago.

We had a good time at the Museum. If you plan to do the museum, the Imax, and the Planetarium, be sure to plan on being there from open to close. There is alot to see in the museum itself. When we were here they had the Titanic exhibit (which you have to pay extra to see....it was a little confusing figuring out everything you wanted to see and how much it would cost) The Titanic Exhibit was awesome and worth the extra money. We also watch the Imax Movie on the Titanic. By the time we were done with this and the musuem portion, we didn't have time to do the Planetarium. My favorite part of the basic musuem was the area that dealt with life and health. You get a life card and can put it into different tests throughout the exhibit and at the end you get a printed sheet that tells you about your info on your health.

This is a great museumby Yahoo | 2007-05-08 15:01:00 |

I love going to this museum because it is so interesting. I have been there twice on school field trips and the teachers like taking us because we learn a lot of new things. The exibits are awesome and I would recommend this museum to everyone.

EXCELLENT!!!by Yahoo | 2007-04-09 02:32:50 |

The whole family enjoyed the museum, the family age range 10-42 years. Great information, exhibits and overall presentation. The Life Hall was very educational for the whole family, but the teenagers really enjoyed the most.

What a learning experience!by Yahoo | 2006-08-03 16:46:48 |

This was a great place to take our children. They did not realize at the time that they were learning new things and was very intreged by many different dispays and areas of the museum. From a week long vacation in Denver this was the place that they keep telling everyone about. We live outside of St. Louis and all the attractions are free,so having to pay for any activity was a downfall.

Great Museum!!by Yahoo | 2006-07-04 22:43:07 |

We had a great time with our kids at the Museum. We went to IMAX and saw a film about Greece. The kids also loved the Dino's. One word of advice. The food and drinks are very expensive (like any amusement park) so take your own water.

This is always a good idea when visiting Denver. The changing exhibits are wonderful and it is well worth the money. The IMAX and planitarium are also very cool, for child and adult alike. I would highly recommend this museum.
