Not truly adequate for the price.

Vera_R, Jul 2026

The museum is very worth the visit and our guide gave us the basic layout along with details about several example displays, but she spoke rapidly and did not ask us for our questions or interests. She left us 15 minutes early out of 120 without explanation. Lovely person but left us feeling $275 each was way too steep. Go on your own, get a map and an audio tour. You’ll do great.

Excellent Private Tour

Kim was great and showed us the highlights of this massive facility. The casts room was fascinating and the history of the entire museum complex was interesting as well. The walking tour was great!
