Very informative. I did not know that such a thing as a land sloth existed, its so huge and looks like a monster from D&D. I love it! The large canvas painting at the end was completely stunning. The preserved animals were very cool too. I mean I knew about the land bridge but didn't realize that area got so large! This place was very enlightening and educational.
This museum is worth the visit! Although it's small, there's lots to look at. We got the opportunity to join a group to learn how to throw spears. They also have some unique specimens found in the Yukon in permafrost by gold miners. If you have an extra hour or two before heading to the airport it's worth the stop.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
I love natural history and so this place is a must. Saturday and Sunday only during October and only noon to 5pm. It will only take 45 minutes if you watch the history movie. It could take a couple of hours if you read everything. It explores a fascinating period of time when the Bering Strait was a land bridge ... hence the name Beringia.
Close to the airport and another great museum! Focused on the land bridge and the animals surrounding it! Did you know camels came from North America? I didn't...
Didn't expect to find this place but heard about it from the transport museum. Was very impressed with the quality of the exhibits and the information! Staff was very nice and helpful as well, more than willing to answer any questions you may have. Good place to bring kids as well; they had a little kids station that looked fun. Great place to learn about the prehistoric era, the Bering straight land bridge, and the climate cycles!
Excellent. For a small museum it's big on content, value and customer service. Meisha our guide was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place. We took advantage of the short guided tour/presentation, the movie in their theatre and the spear throwing demonstration later on. Wonderful place. Worth every cent and more of the entrance fee. Don't expect to be all day here but half a day with taking in all the listed programs and maybe taking a packed lunch to have on the desk, if not then you could be done in 2 - hrs.
Learned a lot about the natural history of the Beringia. The exhibition and interpretation are very clear, informative, intriguing, and interactive. The staff was really nice.
Not a big museum but contains interesting artifacts and a theatre. Friendly staff. Cheap admission, near the airport, definitely recommend a visit when in town.
A touch small but still worth the visit. Between the exhibits, mini theatre and outdoor demonstrations, a most enjoyable learning experience.
very small museum, but it is very interesting. Must watch the short video
