You're never too old to learn something and I guarantee a visit here will tell you about some part of history that you slept through when the teacher was teaching it. Lots of exhibits. My preference is not to go during the summer months but hey if you have to enjoy, it will just be a bit more crowded. More

Went with adult friends and 13 year old daughter. We had limited time and chose to see the first ladies and presidents. Both exhbits were well done and had many things for everyone. Don't miss the Star Spangled Banner also. More

Enjoyed all the exhibits of the museum because I love my country and love reviewing it's growth. We spent 4 hrs. there and missed a couple of galleries. The museum is so massive on 3 floors but there are seats to rest and 2 cafe/restaurants. No need for a tour guide. More

Fantastic destination museum, among the core of the big Smithsonian museums on The Mall. It's easy to spend an entire day in this museum. More

from cars to rail first ladies dresses red shoes from yellow brick road this museum has every thing you could spend hours here well worth a visit More

They have the flag! Scorched, torn and stained that inspired the National Anthem. If you like American history there are some amazing things here (quite a lot of rubbish too though!) More

Big museum with plenty of room to view the exhibits. My 8 yr old especially enjoyed the transportation exhibit with trains and cars. More

Even if you've visited before, make another stop at this museum. The staff change out displays to keep it fresh. I always enjoy the first lady's wing of the museum. Give yourself at least 3 hours to explore every floor. The kids in our party enjoyed the pop culture section with displays and artifacts from favorite television shows... More

Can not even describe how much stuff is in this museum. Just Great More
