  • An excellent museum
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/24/09
    Now that the galleries are open after the huge renovation, this museum is a gem. The dinosaur gallery is especially amazing, and the Egyptian artifacts are very nicely displayed. Many cultures represented and I assume that negative reviews were written during the long construction period. A must visit!

  • A good place to visit...
    By Lefty, 09/24/08
    The crystal outside the museum was one of the great architectural works I have ever seen. As well, most of the exhibits inside were fun to look at. The map of the museum, however, was a little difficult to follow. Other than that, this museum was overall a good place to visit I would recommend to any museum aficionado.

  • A Great Surprise
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/24/08
    The best collection of African stuff I've ever seen. Not just the masks, but elaborate carvings with many figures, things I hadn't seen elsewhere. The Egyptian stuff was well-organized into chronological and category exhibits, not the mishmash of unmatched objects in other museums. The fabric exhibit was fascinating, including the video ...

  • Royal Chinese Ontario Museum!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/16/08
    I think that there are far too many Chinese exhibits in this museum. I would have liked the museum to have balance in its display of art, culture and history of the world. I understand Michael Lee Chin is of chinese extraction and that he has contributed a lot to the renovation of the ROM. However, contributions should not force the museum to focus ...

  • It's Okay
    By Olivia, 03/22/08
    It was expensive, and was slightly boring in some sections. The paperweight exibit is the best place to go.Let's just say it was pretty good, yet really boring in the occasional place. Boring; lots of things I already know... Good; interesting music(is played right there, right then). Average; totaly!!! There are a lot more better things to do. ...

  • Fantastic for families
    By David, 05/14/07
    Admisson was on par with any museum of this size. During our visit the featured exhibit was from Peru.

    We quickly walked through the animal exhibits, which seemed a bit anti-climatic. They did offer several interactive areas and the parents with children seemed to be enjoying these.

    Many artifacts and ceremonial costumes on display in the ...

  • Amazing!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/12/07
    The best Museum I have ever been to! Wonderful exhibits, and an amazing staff. The ROM caters to people of all sorts, and everbody can enjoy it, from small children to the more mature in years. I have never been so impressed in my life.

  • Eh, It Was Okay
    By Tiffany, 01/08/07
    It was a great place to visit while we were here. But it wasn't cup of tea in the end. Although I didn't like it i would recommend it. Beware: WAY OVERPRICED!!!!!

  • Your kids would love it
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/16/06
    The bird exhibition was incredible in my mind while the rest of the museum had many other exhibits that were great just the same. A must see..

  • Royally Sucks
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/17/05
    This place is very over-priced for what it offers. I was expecting something on par with Chicago's Field Museum, but this place had nothing.
