I found a 15%discount code online for admission, with that it still cost my family of 4 $93.00 to get in (part of this was an additional $8 per person for another exhibit) - I personally was very disappointed. Things are so unaffordable. If I’m paying $100 essentially for admission, I SHOULD NOT have to pay extra to see the “special” exhibits! My entry fee should entitle me to access to the ENTIRE MUSEUM. This is completely unreasonable to me, and I won’t be returning. We used to love coming here but now between cost of admission, seeing the “cool” exhibits, and travel back and forth and a meal it’s a $300 day for a small family, and not something fun and affordable we can do multiple times. The exhibit I did pay extra for was nice, but not worth an extra fee IMO. Everything is just a money grab now. Sad.

This is one of the better large institution museums I've been to that spans enough material to keep you interested. It is a mix of natural history, art, and historical. We spent around 4 hours walking through the exhibits, and could've taken longer. They do a great job featuring the Indigenous people of their specific area ( some museums just display whatever from unrelated regions) and collections that told full stories about the country's periods. Some of the rooms were hard to get to, and the signs were not completely clear, but it looks like the museum expanded on top of itself, making that part a bit hard.

A really good museuem that told its story from the regional point of view. Really good First Nations exhibit and enjoyed the dinosaur wing. You need to allow yourself a good 2- 3 hours to do it justice.

We went to ROM for the free main floor show. The exhibit items were reasonably presented except the sign to view the free show is not clear. I hope they can consider adding more signs to guide us to the free show. More free shows are welcome as it helps us to introduce our ROM to our friends who are travellers and may want to pay to see more afterwards. Great marketing initiative.

Honestly, this museum seemed rather small. It is also laid out like a labyrinth: after reaching the end of some exhibits you have to double-back to see something new. All this being said, I did really enjoy the first floor sections On Japan/Korea/China and the art therin. The gem and mineral section was also ver extensive. Other than that, I'd say give it a pass because there is nothing too terribly striking about this museum.
