Field Museum review
It’s a beautiful building well kept. Restrooms clean. Be ready to walk. I had a great day. The second floor where the gems are was the best.

Impressive Museum
We came to Chicago for the Pokemon Fossil Exhibit at The Field Museum (which our son loved). The museum itself is quite impressive - I like it better than the NY Natural History Museum. They have free tours during the day. We jumped on a tour of the Dinosaur Exhibition area and it was great. Highly recommend as a don't miss spot.

Thought Provoking Experience
This a nice natural history museum housed in a beautiful building. The only drawback is that a lot of artifacts are missing and exhibits are being reworked leaving blank spaces in the Native American and Egyptian sections. While understandable, a new approach to redoing an exhibit is needed so visitors won’t be disappointed. The dinosaur section is top notch, especially Sue. A full 4-5 hours are needed to see everything

Sue the TRex
At first I was skeptical on whether I would enjoy this experience. But the amount of incredible things to see left me very satisfied. Sue the TRex was the cherry on top in this whole experience!
