The Field Museum is a wonderful place to take children. You can have a great experience for adults as well. It includes all aspects of history from multiple cultures of the world. My favorite exhibit was the Ancient Americans. The entrance to it is a stunning video projection of mammoths that makes you feel like you really are in "ancient Chicago". The Egyptian exhibit was also good. I loved that they had stones from the actually pyramid. Very beautiful and authentic.

Seeing "Sue" the T-rex was definitely a highlight, but there are lots of neat things to see here! Some of the exhibits seem a little old fashioned, but there are plenty of others which are modern and fun with lots of interactivity. Our favorite was the Real Pirates exhibit! If you get a chance to visit while this exhibit is still open, definitely pay the extra admission! Also, this museum is HUGE, so I would devote an entire day to spend here.

Awesome museum- lots to see here! Great location and very impressive area.
More parking would be a good idea (be prepared to pay $16) and the line to pay was short but painfully slow- a quicker system needs to be found and implemented.
Contrary to other reviewer(s) I found the staff to be courteous and helpful.

Lots to see and do; additional fees for "special" exhibits can really run the cost up; Beautiful museum and laid out well. Good lunch at Corner Bakery--much better than most. Lots of school groups, but as long as you stayed away from the areas where they were, it didn't bother me. Of all the Chicago museums on the City Pass, this was my favorite.
