Your Itinerary

American Museum of Natural History

The museum’s 33 million objects are spread through 28 different buildings – making a guide indispensable if you want to experience even a fraction of it. You’ll start by learning the museum’s history in the majestic Roosevelt Rotunda where you’ll come face to face with the first of many prehistoric characters on your visit. Moving on, your guide will explain how the dioramas are created as you explore the giant African mammals of the Akeley Hall.  The creatures get even bigger as you move towards the dinosaur exhibits featuring some of the most complete collections of dinosaur skeletons anywhere in the world. From the gargantuan Titanosaur to the crowd-favorite T-Rex, even the most serious adult feels like a kid staring up at these beasts. You’ll then move on to hear about the North American Forests, featuring the giant Sequoia, before gaping up at the Blue Whale hanging overhead in the Hall of Ocean Life. Visit some American mammals as you learn about the National Parks of the United States. End your visit with a trip to space, exploring the Cosmic Pathway that details the no fewer than 13 billion years of our universe’s existence. Talk about perspective, right?

The day we visited the museum, it was PACKED! Our tour guide Kevin communicated with us during the 45 min wait to get through the security line at the museum. We were very comfortable that he would wait for the entire group before starting the tour. Once we were together, we set off on an AWESOME tour. Without Kevin's expert navigation of the museum and unmatched knowledge of the exhibits, we would have been lost. I highly recomment this tour and Kevin as a guide. Guaranteed you will walk out learning many new things.
