Top Culture in Ottawa

I think packing a light lunch is a great idea. The museum's cafe is kinda pricey for what you get. I ended up spending a bit more than I wanted on snacks, so come prepared!

Also, don’t miss the outdoor area. The giant sculptures and memorials are really powerful and add a whole different layer to the experience

I think you should take the guided audio tour; it really deepens your understanding of the exhibits. It's totally worth the few extra bucks!

I recommend checking out the museum's special exhibits online before you go. They often have temporary displays that can be incredible, and having a little background can enhance your visit.

I recomment checking out the interactive demos in the Science & Tech gallery. They were super fun and gave a hands-on touch to the whole experience! Don't miss out on those!

I recommend taking the time to read all the interesting facts posted around the exhibits. Some are really fascinating and made my visit way more enjoyable than just looking at planes.

check out the special activities or workshops happening during your visit. they’re not always advertised well, but i stumbled upon a fun craft session that added a lot to my experience!
