We visited the Museum and Aquarium on a beautiful September weekday. There were not a lot of people there and we enjoyed studying exhibits and animals and talking to the very knowledgeable, friendly staff. We were on a month long "Boomer Trip" of the Midwest and this museum was one of the high points. The museum and aquarium are beautifully woven together with wonderful displays and lots of interesting animals.
Lunch time approached and we knew we could go out to eat and be readmitted but chose to grab a quick meal at the Cafe. What a happy accident! My husband had a chicken salad sandwich that he said was excellent and I chose the soup of the day, Cream of Potato with Bacon. OH! MY! GOODNESS! That was the best potato soup I've ever had. If all the soups they serve are as good as this and I lived in Dubuque, I would buy a membership just to go to the restaurant. Well done!
We also visited the gift shop and found a hoodie for our daughter who had been watching our dog. She loves it!
This is a wonderful attraction and well worth the admission price (we got 1/2 off with our reciprocal AZA zoo membership but would have happily have paid full price). My only regret is that I didn't get some potato soup to-go!

We enjoyed the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium from the lovely Lady at the entrance desk who greeted us & gave us advice on how to see the museum/ aquarium and supply a map. The aquarium has a hands on tank for children with star fish & other things I couldn't resist and had a try. They also had a tank to touch the sting rays, first time I have done this l was amazed how soft they were.😍
The other displays the William Black Riverboat, aquarium tanks with fish, snakes, but the two Otters were so active & definitely my favourites we spent half an hour trying to get there photos.
I would definitely recommend this place.

We have been to the museum several times and each time there is something different to see. Our grandchildren, (ages 10, 6, 6, and 4) had so much fun. They ran from exhibit to exhibit excited to see what was there. The hands on touch tanks were a huge hit - they were able to touch the sting rays and some star fish. We bought tickets to the 3D movie - 2 movies are available - we chose the movie geared more toward younger kids. They thought it was great fun having the sprinkles of water the the rumbling of the seats while watching the movie, wearing their 3D glasses. There are a lot of interactive things the kids could play with too. We spent 4 hours looking at everything, including touring the William Black riverboat (which is part of the museum price). The cafe offered kid friendly food so we chose to eat lunch there. Overall it was a great time with the grandkids and they can’t wait to go back!

This museum has a little bit of everything for all ages and interests. The cost of entry includes both buildings, the riverboat, and the plaza in between. It is a huge area to explore. We went on a Sunday afternoon spending about 4 hours but we could have spent much longer there. The riverboat closed an hour before closing so we missed that part unfortunately. So I recommend you go to the riverboat first. There is a small cafe and picnic area too if you make a day of it.

Great trip. We arrived at approximately 10 am and made our way towards the entrance of the museum. We bought our admission tickets and received a map of the museum. We bought the admission ticket that included a viewing of the movie. The movie that we saw was titled Micro Monsters and was amazingly done. We watched it in the 4D theatre, and were surrounded by multiple special effects, including wind blowing and water spraying in our faces. The movie was very interesting and I learned a lot about the various insects and their “superpowers”. The movie was roughly 40 minutes long and highly worth the additional cost of admission. After viewing the movie, we set out to explore the rest of the museum. The museum/aquarium was extremely large and contained multiple exhibits. There were multiple informational plaques scattered throughout each exhibit, that detailed what we were seeing in front of us. There were also several short, informational clips about the subject matter on hand, along with many hands on exhibits for both kids and adults alike. There were both indoor and outdoor exhibits, and the property was located on a nice riverfront location. There was a riverboat on site as well, that we could go on and tour. After touring the outside portion of the museum, we went back inside where there was a gift shop and some restrooms.
Tip: I recommend spending an entire day here if you truly want to experience the entire museum and all of the exhibits.

We took our 2&3 year old great grandchildren and they had a great time. This museum has enough to keep their attention but it’s not overwhelming. Only disappointed was the otters were nowhere to be found that day. I asked staff and could not tell me why.

I took a star off for the young person who took our money at entrance but offered no smile, museum map, or thank you. The museum has an extensive layout with several buildings and lots of walking — it would have been nice if she had offered to answer questions! The one question I had for her — how to orient ourselves on the museum map — she could not answer and did not offer to find somebody who could. First impressions matter. Once we realized we were on our own regarding the visit, we figured our way around. Especially enjoyed the large tanks of gar and sturgeon, the interactive exhibits about flooding, and the video about barge life. Lots for kids to see and do.

I am not a museum person, but really did enjoy this one. Loved the Aquarium and seeing all the native fish. Also, very interesting information about the Mississippi River. This is a museum where you could take all ages; kids would also love it.

Good for families of all ages. Otters were really active and cute! Rotating special exhibits are always engaging and fun. Spent about 4 hours visiting with a family of 5. Lots of interactive things to engage with and keep busy.

Most of it is inside. Yes if its raining, the river boats you have to walk to. But there is a mostly covered walkway. Remote control boats and animals outside ( like a zoo area) probably would be unavailable.

is it a good idea to visit the place during thanksgiving weekend? how crowded can we expect it to be? does weather have any impact as we will be travelling from far-off?
RiverMuseumDBQ
Dubuque, Iowa
While we typically expect higher traffic during holiday weekends, the two buildings are large enough to more than accommodate for it. At this time of year, weather isn't usually a factor.
Do we have to worry about getting tickets ahead of time? Is it sold out often? We are traveling from hours away
In our off-peak season October - April, you will be able to buy tickets at the door.
Once admission is paid can you leave for lunch and come back in the museum?
Yes. Your admission is good for two consecutive days. We do offer the River's Edge Cafe and the Mississippi Grounds coffee shop as food options on site.
