Reviews
The exhibitions were pretty good. Cost of entry is reasonable but extra cost to the special exhibition pushed the cost up a fair bit. The restaurant had some great views of the city but the food was pretty dire. I had the lamb chops and they were bland cold and a little chewy. The potatoes were under cooked and the gravy tasted like it was out of a packet. The staff were lovely though and Service was fast.

I took the free 1pm guided tour which was very informative. I would recommend doing a tour first to get your bearings as it is such a large space. They have exhibits which change and you pay extra to get into. I went into the mammoth exhibit. They had a baby mammoth in there. It was interesting and informative. Lots of school children were visiting too which is great.

Australia's oldest museum showcasing magnificent collection of natural history and anthropology pieces. Great venue to hold a party although the acoustics aren't the best. You can happily spend hours here and your kids will be suitably entertained too. Located just a few minutes from either Town Hall or Museum station, and just right across the park.

The museum has interesting exhibits but I would rate my experience as horrible. This was due to the abominable behavior of visitors with children. The latter were allowed to run around screaming while their parents found it perfectly permissible to yell to one another from one end of a gallery to another. I have never encountered such a total lack of consideration for other guests at a museum in any other country to which I have travelled. The Australian Museum would do well to institute a museum etiquette briefing if it wishes to continue attracting tourists from other countries.

Very large, very interesting. Unfortunately I didn’t have a lot of time but the taxidermists were amazing and the kids area was great. Kids area has a change table and sink and feeding chair for parents of young children. The native Australian exhibits were cool too.
