Amazing museum. I love how you can view the staff/scientists work on fossils, dissections, and studies behind the glass.

Fascinating paleontology displays. I can't wait to visit again to absorb more knowledge.
We came early and couldn't find parking then came back afternoon. It was totally worth it.

The museum was very dichotomical, I enjoyed learning and visually seeing the facts. The mammoth was my one of the highlights to see during the visit. Elevator is spacious and plenty of space to go your own pace.

I visited the Burke Museum this past Saturday with my kids, and we had such a wonderful experience that I felt compelled to leave a review. This museum is truly a gem in Seattle, especially for families. From the moment we walked in, the staff ...
were welcoming, and the exhibits immediately grabbed my kids’ attention. They loved being able to see real scientists working behind the glass, and the hands-on areas kept them engaged the entire time.
What really stood out to me was how interactive and kid-friendly everything was. My kids especially enjoyed the fossil and animal exhibits, where they could touch objects, learn through play, and ask questions. It wasn’t just another museum visit—it felt like an adventure. We spent several hours exploring, and they were still asking to go back as we were leaving.
This is definitely worth the visit, whether you’re a local or just passing through Seattle. The museum strikes the perfect balance between education and fun, and it gives kids an experience they’ll truly remember. I’m confident my kids will cherish the memories from this day—discovering new things, trying hands-on activities, and feeling like real little explorers. Highly recommend the Burke Museum for families!

We spent a rainy morning here and enjoyed our visit! They have a good selection of indigenous art, dinosaurs, and taxidermies. There’s a strong focus on acknowledging the impact of colonialism. We came without kids but there’s a lot of interact...
ive elements, so it’s a great place for little ones!
