Itinerary tips
- 1Plan for a full six to eight hours if you intend to visit more than two of the five major venues on-site.
- 2Purchase the 'Explorer Pass' if you want bundled access to the Museum of Ancient Life, Ashton Gardens, and Farm Country for a significant discount.
- 3Bring a stroller or rent a golf cart at the Ashton Gardens, as the 55-acre loop involves significant walking that can tire young children.
- 4Park for free in the spacious central lot located directly in front of the Museum of Natural Curiosity near the Electric Park entrance.
- 5Check the venue calendar for the Tulip Festival in April or the Luminaria light display in December, as these require separate timed-entry tickets.
- 6Pack a reusable water bottle and sunscreen, as several outdoor exhibits and the Farm Country area offer limited shade during midday.
