A great place for children and adults alike! The museum is HUGE and there is SO much to do and SO much to see! We have a membership and enjoy coming here time after time. There’s definitely something for everyone to see from dinosaurs to insects to birds and so much more. We enjoy looking up to see the moon and earth floating in the atrium. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Parking is easy and on site.

This was an awesome experience. Being there with kids wouldn't give you enough tile to see everything. I will definitely go back by my own. Even though many activities are shut down because of covid there is still plenty to discover and see. Great place.

This museum is huge, so many things to do. The prices are pretty reasonable and they even have a student discount. Lots of different galleries like dinosaurs, underwater gallery with a real whale skeleton, Bird gallery, and more! I often have two different specialty galleries that change often. they have the butterfly exhibit! Definitely a place to learn with lots of interactive activities for all ages

Good balance of space and time for the advance booking needed during COVID restrictions. Having the flow in one direction allows you to visit everything and not miss sections as you may if it was normal wandering about! The dinosaurs are always a humbling highlight of our past and the Arctic exhibit reminds me of what I saw while I was in NWT. Minimum 2-3hrs needed but could spend days if you are reading each exhibit and taking it all in slowly.

Love This Place The museum originated from a museum established by the Geological Survey of Canada in 1856. Originally based in Montreal, the museum relocated to downtown Ottawa in 1881. In 1911, the museum relocated to Victoria Memorial Museum Building. Initially a natural history museum, the institution later expanded to include an anthropology and human history department; with the institution renamed the National Museum of Canada in 1927. The departments of the national museum were later split into separate national institutions, with the natural history department forming the National Museum of Natural Sciences in 1968. The museum adopted its current name in 1990, after it was made its own autonomous crown corporation. From 2004 to 2010 the museum renovated and expanded the Victoria Memorial Museum Building.
