Had an amazing time!! The exhibits are so huge too. Did not do the IMAX portion this time, but I heard that it's a good option, especially if they are showing movie/documentaries that pair with current exhibits, like they are currently doing with their Cambodia exhibit.

Must visit!! But set aside at least 3 hours for this place. On Saturdays(Summers I think) they are open until 10pm, which worked in our favour.There is so much information to absorb in limited time. During our visit - The first floor was dedicated for First Nations, Second floor of Animal evolution, Third floor was set aside for Stu the dinosaur (T-Rex fossil discovered in Canada) and the related discoveries. We also had the opportunity to visit -The Angkor wat display- which was excellent, but many of the idols were missing parts while on exhibition :(. The museum is well-maintained, clean, wheelchair accessible and has very friendly staff.

Before we arrive we expect to spend at least one hour here to view the exhibition, actually we walk out in less than one hour because there is currently one exhibition on display now. There is new exhibition coming but it’s on early June. We still paying the same admission to get inside but only to see one exhibition feels not worth the money at all. We recommend before you go check their website see which exhibition is currently on so won’t get the same experience as us. We feel bit disappointed like getting scammed. Plus you need to pay extra for the IMAX show it’s doesn’t make any sense.

Great museum has very nice and extensive exhibits. I went there when they had the wildlife photo-journalism exhibit which was a interesting one. It wasn’t busy whatsoever but I did go on a rainy Sunday around 3:00. Would definitely recommend going. It also seems like there was a third floor exhibit but for some reason it’s closed and I don’t know why. Maybe it will be open sometime in the future.

The Grand Dame of Museums in Victoria, BC. In the heart of the city; next to the Iconic Empress Hotel and across from the Famed Victoria Harbour. The displays in the different themed exhibits are awesome! The extensive information and detail in the displays is fabulous. Plan on spending a minimum of three hours; more, if your a history buff!

This museum used to be one of my favourites but we went on June 19,2023 and it has changed. It was like $30 to get in and the exhibits were lame. A lot has changed and it’s not very good anymore.The little Canadian animal exhibit was cool though.

Small but interesting museum. An Angkor Wat exhibition was opened and it was fantastic ñ, but the local exhibits of indigenous cultures was closed due to renovations. Located in the heart of the city in Victoria and you can walk from there to many other interesting places nearby. Or, catch the Hop On Hop Off bus to go around the city and explore at your own pace.

Loved the Dinosaur and Angkor exhibits which are new to the museum. Seeing the natural world was fantastic as well. I was a little disappointed that the human civilization is shutdown until July 29th so we weren't able to see it. Still a great experience though.

Went to meet Sue. It was an amazing experience. Lots of space to walk around the exhibits. Cool side exhibits. I saw Black Beauty at the Royal Tyrel Museum last Sept - to see both... just wow.
