Great Chinese display

Excellent display of ancient items as far back as 3000+ years. Eye opener!

Psychedelic exhibit!!

I was excited to visit the psychedelic exhibit, but unfortunately it was a disappointing experience. Given the high ticket price, I expected a much larger and more engaging exhibit. Instead, there were very few displays, limited information about the subject matter, and not much that felt immersive or interactive. The exhibit lacked the depth, educational content, and visual impact I was hoping for. I finished walking through it much faster than expected and left feeling that it did not provide good value for the cost of admission. Overall, I would not recommend this exhibit, especially at its current price point. There are many other exhibits and attractions that offer a much more worthwhile experience for the same amount of money.

Large air-conditioned museum, interesting exhibitions

A large museum, interesting exhibits, you can easily spend a bad weather day here Cool dinosaur exhibition (especially for kids), it's a bit of a shame that most of the bones were replicas, but you can't have everything ;) My friend was thrilled by the displayed mummy in the Egypt section And a really great gem section for enthusiasts! However, it was a bit too cold, the air conditioning was set very low, at times we were really freezing, which was uncomfortable A sensible and recognizable route through the building or the exhibitions would also be desirable

Do the highlights tour

The museum is laid out over three floors and three buildings meshed together. the best part was doing the highlights tour with Winston, a font of knowledge. He managed to bring so many areas to life with his enthusiasm. We did the exhibition of the bees, $14 more which is excessive on top of the regular admission. It’s a nice exhibition but should be included. The cafe was nice, although we only had hot drinks (reasonable prices) there were a large selection of pastries on sale.

Great museum

Huge museum that would require multiple days to see it all. BIG dinosaur exhibit, minerals and gems, wildlife and so much more. I did not make it to the top floor due to time.

Amazing Adventure!

I brought my granddaughter and my girlfriend brought her granddaughter. We loved the dinosaur exhibit, the animals were great to see and read about and the minerals display was amazing. The kids loved the bat cave. Being able to hear about each animal or dinosaur on the computer screens were the added feature to learn where the animals lives and very interesting facts about them. We all had a wonderful trip to the TOM!!

Huge museum

Huge museum, the highlight definitely being the amount of dinosaurs on display. Included in our City Pass and only a few stops on the underground from Union Station. Plenty to see and explore

Don’t Miss It!

The Royal Ontario Museum is very impressive and surpassed expectations for me. It is huge and has many great exhibits, the dinosaurs being a real highlight for me. You could just about spend a full day here, although check before you go what’s on as some of the exhibits change through the year.

Great exhibits, fantastic venue.

This gem is a mix of Victotian and new art, just the outside is amazing to study by itself. Vast hallways, large stairs, massive displays....quite simply something for everyone. History, wildlife, humans, animals, art. Extensive gallery, a pleasure to walk through. I enjoyed how the rooms change from dark to bright as you walk into new zones.
