Natural History Museum of Utah
6.1
Don’t skip the top floor! The views of the mountains are breathtaking and there's some great info up there about Utah's ecosystems.
I recommend getting there right when it opens at 10 AM to beat the crowds. You can really enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed.
I suggest downloading the museum app for interactive maps and info—it really enriched my experience and helped me navigate efficiently!
If you're visiting on a Saturday, try to arrive right at opening time—weekends get packed quickly and parking fills up fast.
Church History Museum
5
Grab the free audio guide at the entrance. It really enhances the experience and gives you great context for everything you’re seeing
I suggest checking for any special events or exhibits online before you go. Sometimes they have really cool workshops or talks that you won’t want to miss.
The gift shop has some unique items that you won’t find elsewhere, but I recommend setting a spending limit before entering to avoid overspending on souvenirs.
Discovery Gateway Children's Museum
3.3
If your kids love playing and building, head straight to the Build City area. Other parents said it gets super busy, so hitting it first kept the little ones entertained without the wait.
I recommend visiting on weekdays, especially Tuesday or Wednesday, when it tends to be less crowded. You’ll get to enjoy the exhibits with more space and time to explore, trust me.
Make sure to check out the museum's special events calendar before your visit. I stumbled upon a fun workshop that I almost missed, and it was a total highlight!
The Leonardo
2.6
I highly recommend checking online for any special events or exhibits happening before you go. They occasionally have cool programs that you won't want to miss! I wish I had done that during my visit.
Utah Museum of Fine Arts
1.5
My advice is to check out the museum's schedule before you go. They sometimes have special events or talks that could really enhance your visit—totally worth it!
I suggest visiting on a Thursday afternoon when admission is free. I saved some bucks and it wasn’t crowded, so I really enjoyed the exhibits without feeling rushed.
