Field Museum

125 years in the making, this collection now exceeds 40 million artifacts. Your guide will navigate the labyrinth to ensure you see the best of the best: from Sue the T-Rex, to the hall of Jades, and the largest mummy collection in North America. Time-travel with your guide through an ancient Egyptian crypt to an ancient Egyptian marketplace. Ease your way back to present day as you are dazzled by garnet necklaces from ancient Egypt and Jade from ancient China. Tiffany & Co’s lauded gem collection bridges us to modern donations from the top jewelry houses in the world. The jade collection is so large it gets its own exhibition hall! Wrap up your stones and minerals part of the tour viewing some literally out of this world meteorites as you push out of the present and into the future. After walking thousands of years in 150 minutes your feet may be tired but the experience is once in a lifetime!
