Great exhibits! There were three floors of fun. Some memorable standouts were the gem/stone rooms, space exhibits where you can actually touch meteorites millions of years old, and the snakes/lizards. We also saw Flying Monsters (about prehistoric birds) in the IMAX, and a planetarium show about Wild Weather. Both were a little extra cost, but worth it. School was still... More

world class exhibits, funky spread out layout, something for everyone More

I have had a membership at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science for many years that allows me to take up to 7 people in at a time. Why? It's an essential place to visit. There are lots of spots for kids to play on a grey day--preschoolers in the Discovery Zone and extra spaces in the Space exhibit... More

You could spend an entire day here. Lots of different exhibits. Lots of interactive things that I think kids would like. The gem exhibit (lower level) was incredible. The interactive health exhibit was nice. Lots of dinosaurs and animal dioramas. We barely spent any time in the space area. It was pretty overrun with obnoxious loud screaming school children.

The Space Odyssey exhibit was unique, informative and interesting and there were many museum volunteers at various stations to explain the exhibits. Unfortunately again, the place was absolutely packed with boisterous... More

What a great Denver museum! We always make a day of it when we go here, we go at 10, look around, have lunch in their T-Rex cafe, which makes some killer mexican food - just super! Then we go back into the museum at a leisurely pace. Take in the fun gift shop. Stop for a coffee break in... More

I have made the trip to the Denver Museum many times and am always happy with my visit. The new snake and lizard exhibit is quite wonderful. There were many volunteers out and about to educate and answer any questions. More

Visited the DMNS and spent the larger part of the day there and still didnt have time to get around all of the exhibits. All of the sections of the museum were interesting and the current installation of lizards and snakes is a highlight of the trip. Refreshing to see a special exhibit that is included in the cost of... More
