Reviews
It was my first time at the Australian Museum and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The free exhibition areas are nice and well set out into categories.nWe came here for the Inca exhibition and it was beautifully curated. It's laid out over two levels, escalator and lift access to each level.nWe purchased timed tickets in advance so the wait and crowd was minimal.nI enjoyed a coffee at the cafe later on which was a nice space to sit.nStaff were friendly and helpful.nOverall I would recommend coming here.
It was time to finally take the kids to the Museum, the youngest being 13 and the eldest 19 and my first time visiting. What a full day of exploration. Being free entry payment for exhibitions is required you could come and go as you please. There is so much to learn and investigate that I can only say, take the time to go. Everyone will enjoy it.
Really enjoyed our day at the museum. The entry is free to the museum except for some of the specific area. Dinosaur display is permanent in the museum our son really loved the dinosaur fossils and really enjoyed overall display of different animals at the museum
Date of visit: 2024 Sep 01.nTime of visit: 3.15 pm to 4.30 pm.nOverall: 9.75/10.nSight Seeing: 10.nActivity: N.A.nIndoor Air Conditioning: 10.nAmbience: 9.nLocation: 10.nExpected activity 1.5 to 2 hours.nPrice Entry: Free.nnSight Seeing: Highly recommended to visit this expansive museum, which has many levels of exhibits, featuring life like animals, skeletons, insects and even dinosaurs. They also showcase cultural elements, artifacts, and also videos. The exhibits are also well laid out and organised, so visitors can easily transit from one area to another.nnIndoor Air Conditioning: The air conditioning was cool and comfortable.nnAmbience: The museum building looks distinctive and huge. The entrance is also quite nice and welcoming, and there was a service staff at the lobby who was very friendly and gave a clear overview of the museum and exhibits. The exhibits, displays, lighting set up were good and the interior building elements was rather classic and grand.nnLocation: It is located within Sydney Central Business District, and is close to multiple hotels, attractions and shopping.
Highly enjoyable museum that is good for all ages. The museum is free except for paid special exhibitions. I felt I learned a lot here about Australia's wildlife from the Dinosaurs up to the unique creatures and marsupials of today. Some notable collections are their large display of stuffed birds that takes up a whole gallery and they have a very impressive collection of dazzling minerals.
