NYC American Museum of Natural History Tickets

If you are passionate about science and want to explore all the intricacies of human history, you must visit the American Museum of Natural History. This building, which houses a collection of more than 35 million objects, has become a world reference since it opened its doors in 1869.

There are more than 50 permanent exhibitions. Strolling through its corridors, you can come across dinosaur fossils, life-size reproductions of many animals, recreations of moai sculptures from Easter Island or giant minerals. You've probably seen the large dinosaur that presides over one of the main halls in one of the films.

This space has been proclaimed the best family attraction in New York City. Buy your general admission ticket and soak up all the knowledge the museum has to offer. You'll also be able to download an app to your mobile phone to learn all the details of the exhibitions.

And if you want to make your experience even more complete, you can opt for a premium option that includes:

• Tickets plus one: general admission to the museum + a choice between a special exhibition or a 2D film on a giant screen or a 3D space show in the Hayden Planetarium.
