Awesome experience! Very sensitive and scary when next to the bugzzzZZZZ. You can explore for hours and get lost in the world, nature and society histories!

Super cool modern space... After being inside, enjoy a walk in the park around the museum. Walk a few blocks down Gertrude Street for some unique cafes as a change of pace.

It's one of the best museums I've been to! The science section shows so much dedication and love and insight! Great for young and old, solo and and with family. Definitely a must see in Melbourne! ❤️

The wild - amazing animals in a changing world display is excellent. Augmented reality touch screens and cameras "label" the stuffed animals. Fantastic design and use of technology

The Afghanistan Hidden Treasures exhibition is small but wonderfully presented and provides a fascinating insight into an ancient culture. Thoroughly worth a visit.

Adjacent to the old (and fabulous) Exhibition building, Melbourne museum is for all ages. Permanent exhibitions include the human body, dinosaurs, and bugs and insects. Kids love it.

They have real live lungfish here. Watch them swim and wonder at your prehistoric past.

Coffee is over priced, atmosphere is basic. Obviously the museum is great and nearby so that is a plus. Seems understaffed and slow on a regular basis. Pricey sandwiches are fresh-ish so best option.

Concession tickets are free! 🙌🏻 great for international students

If you go on a weekday go after 2:00 or you will be inundated with a million screaming school groups.

They don't do touring exhibition only tickets which is a pity if you've already seen the main museum

A ticket entitles you to free entry all day; but then so does the museum's non-existent security.
