If you’re visiting a museum, it’s essential that you secure tickets early so as to avoid long ticket lines which, during high season, can stretch for up to an hour! Furthermore, visiting during weekdays will help avoid crowds.
The dioramas at the museum are world-famous for their breathtaking realism of some of Earth’s most fascinating animals and landscapes, and feel almost real enough to touch. You’d swear you could hear them growl and see that tiger blinking! Additionally, it offers various interactive experiences such as 3D National Geographic films and special programs; active military personnel receive free admission. Educator Workshops also provide valuable professional development opportunities and skills they can bring back into their classroom.
