- bgerman20242 contributionsThe HMNS is a fabulous museum. The exhibits are well worth the time and effort. Children and adults of all ages will surely be captivated and inspired. The HMNS offers unique learning experiences. If you are in Houston, this is a state-of-the-art facility, which benefits from professional leadership.Written May 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- J. C.United States53 contributionsI parked for free in the small parking by the front main entrance. I walked with my family to all exterior exhibits and took many pictures. We went inside the center and requested to visit the gift shop alone. Anyone is allowed to do this, you get almost an hour to see and purchase many great things at this store. We saved $130+ in tickets by doing this. We went on the Solar Eclipse week so we got to take special exterior pictures too. Once in the main entrance you can also glance and take some quick pictures in the main atrium area.Written April 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- KimK971Beaumont, TX92 contributionsReally enjoyed visiting the museum a couple of months ago. There was a wide variety of art to view from old to neat to quite interesting and I even got to see a Picasso (which surprised me)! The only negative I really have is that the layout is really screwy and it's hard to navigate because of this.Written May 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- CindyR54Calgary, Canada198 contributionsGreat food and beautiful ball stadium. My husband and I took our young grandsons to watch the Blue Jays and had dinner there. We sat once on the first base line, low down and one in the mid-section of left field. I preferred the higher seats.as you could see more. We had nachos and hot dogs, all good. The only downside is that the wine was TERRIBLE. We went two nights, and had a glass each, both equally bad.
The ballpark staff were very helpful and friendly and it was really easy to get in and out, even after the game.Written April 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This museum is full of hands on activities that are educational and entertaining. We spent over 4 hours there, and I'm sure the kids would have loved to spend even more time.
The parking garage is across the street, but there are also street parking nearby. Most of the street parking I saw were 2 hrs max though, except for Sunday.
Invention Convention has a bunch of fun STEM activities that allows the kids to build all sorts of contraptions. And my other son loved the grocery store and diner in the Kidtropolis.
This was a great destination for us to spend a fun filled afternoon. Our kids left with huge smiles on their faces.Written April 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

However, this dress comes in different sizes, including petite, which was a game-changer for me. The dress hugs my body in all the right places without being too tight or uncomfortable. The length is also perfect, hitting right above my knees, making it appropriate for both work and social events.Written April 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bruce P16 contributionsFantastic niche museum! My wife and I spent more than 2 hours to do everything, including their quiz. Very informative and a huge collection of hearses and artifacts. Admission was very reasonable for what you got. I doubt it could hold a child's interest, but even adults that don't think they will be interested are in for a surprise!Written May 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AngelaMayfield, KY224 contributionsWe stopped her on our way to Galveston. The museum was interesting. It is self guided however there was also a tour guide who walked through and told the history as well. He was very interesting. Recommend visiting.Written May 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Thomas VOakland, CA16,054 contributionsWorld class museums can be found here, and there are several close together. If you have a lot of time and plan to visit more than one, you can park your car and walk among them. Together they form a very pretty part of town.Written February 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- dorlucieNew York City, NY209 contributionsThis is a hidden gem that I was not aware of. Modern art and a wide range of collectibles. Worth the trip as it is exhibited in a spacious building allowing for very unusual pieces .Written February 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
