They only suggest admission price and don't demand it. You can visit it free or for as low as a $1. Depending on how much you like it you can always donate more while you are there. It is well organized and the space show was pretty good. more

New York has so many museums and galleries to choose from, and our time there was so short that we had to pick just one to visit. The Museum of Natural History proved to be a great choice. Vivid and beautiful dioramas, awe-inspiring dinosaur skeletons, and so much more. The exhibitions are vast, and impossible to cover more than a... more
Having been in the Natural History Museum in London a number of years ago and loving it, I have to say that I was very disappointed with the Natural History Museum in New York. It cost about $60 for 3 of us (1 adult and 2 students) to go to the basic museum exhibitions and a show (Cosmic Collisions). The... more
Everything you could expect. Only caution, the place is overrun with 8-12 year old school kids while we were there. more
The museum was overcrowded with school children making it hard to hear and move around. The bad layout of the place didn't help either and many of the exhibits were just reproductions. The MET was a way better value and it had more authentic artifacts. more

We decided to visit the Museum on a rainy day during our stay in NY as it was located close to the subway. I'd never been to a Natural History Museum before so was looking forward to it very much. Unfortunately we were left very disappointed. The building is very hard to navigate around with no natural flow ie. start... more
We entered the museum via the 81st subway stop. It is literally steps away after exiting the subway. You CANNOT enter until 10:00 a.m. , but once the guards wave you in, the lines were very very short. We bought a Super Saver pass to Cosmic Collisions, Climate Change and the Planetarium Show-Wild Oceans. As in other reviews and in... more
Having read reviews and guide books I was expecting big things, but I was in for a let down, the Natural History Museum in Londod is twice as good more
