Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum

Absolutely worth the $10 admission – and even more! This museum offers a surprisingly rich and educational experience. The visit starts with an 18-minute film about the history and culture of Florida’s Seminole Indians, followed by access to around four exhibit halls featuring realistic mannequins and displays that vividly recreate daily life in a Seminole village. After the indoor tour, you can enjoy a peaceful 30-minute walk along a boardwalk through the park grounds, adding a relaxing and immersive outdoor touch to the visit. Highly recommended if you’re driving through the area — don’t just pass by! Also, I want to give a special mention to the lovely woman at the front desk — incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful.

It was amazing experience. Such a nice, beautiful, meaningful museum. They have a 1 mile boardwalk, kids were happy to walk there. Museum itself is a place to visit. My family with 3 kids loved it.

Beautiful museum with super friendly and kind staff, not to mention a lovely (and informational) boardwalk. Well maintained, educational, interesting, gorgeous exhibits, and so worth the visit! I also loved the gift shop and the book choices they had available for purchase- great for all ages!

If you’re staying in Miami for more than 10 days, I definitely recommend visiting this place. It offers a full immersion into the history and culture of Native American tribes. The woman at the entrance was exceptionally kind and welcoming. Highly recommended.

Great museum providing an overview of the history and culture of the Seminole Tribe. Well worth the drive! Enjoyed learning about their life and how they flourish in the swamp.

We came on a Thursday in early june. It wasn't very crowded so there was plenty of room to walk around and not feel like I was rushed thru exhibits from being overly crowded. It is a beautiful museum that is very well maintained. It has a mile loop board walk thru the forest with lots of info graphics and signs to teach about forest species. Great day and learned a lot.

Great museum, well done exhibits and a very educational experience for anyone curious about Seminole tribal history and culture. We enjoyed an excellent presentation from our two hosts/tour guides, and the boardwalk takes you through beautiful panoramas of untouched wild Florida cypress wetlands. The displays of tribal artwork and clothing and artifacts are fascinating. Well worth the drive from anywhere in South Florida.

Definitely take a trip out to see the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ali Museum when visiting this part of Florida! We visited here as a part of a cultural experience with our own tribe from Northern California and it was awesome! The area is so beautiful and the people are amazing. Being able to hear stories and see the history of their people is something special to experience with the whole family! Their 1.5 mile boardwalk was beautiful! The Seminole Tribe have an amazing history and they take so much pride in their people and their Native culture!

Great little museum about the Seminole tribe in Florida. Came here over the weekend on a weeklong trip in Florida. I had learned about the Seminole tribe in school, and have been long fascinated by the history of the tribe (past and present) in Florida. My friend and I got in around 4 pm (they close at 5pm), so we missed the boardwalk. However, the front staff were very helpful and got us in immediately so that that we could watch the intro 18-minute video and then proceed to the rest of the exhibit thereafter. The museum showcases the history of the Seminole tribe and highlights various aspects of culture (including things like food, trade, arts, clothing). Part of the museum has artwork from painter Jimmy Osceola (no photos allowed in this part of the museum), which were absolutely beautiful and vivid in color! Ticket prices are $10 for adults, $7.50 for students. IMO, well worth the money as it provided a good understanding of Seminole history and culture, all in one small space. The boardwalk would have been a nice place to visit (if I got there earlier) - hopefully next time!

A great small museum. The video at the start gives an amazing introduction to the history of the Seminole people, how they came to Florida, and what is happening today. Great exhibits that you can wander around at your own pace with interactive displays. We didn't get to experience the boardwalk, because a Florida panther mother & child had been spotted in the area (both for our safety and theirs), and we were given a discount by the really friendly staff. They have a lovely statue garden outside which you can wander around too, and a gift shop that sells Seminole clothing, crafts, jewellery and much more.

Took a group of 26 people here today, dads and daughters. A really nice museum with interesting stuff inside. The tour through the swamp on the boardwalk was really nice plenty of shade and cool things to see.

We visited this museum recently and were blown away by the experience. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and able to field all of our questions. The exhibits in the museum are fascinating and so authentic. Seminole history & culture is beautiful and worth preserving. Everyone Florida resident should experience this museum.

What a great museum. The beginning video is informative and interesting without being too long and the exhibits are really well done. Sadly the weather wasn't conducive to doing the boardwalk but judging from the amount of wildlife in the pond in the front of the museum (alligators, birds, and turtles) I'm sure it would have been a great walk. The drive out here is nice too; take a detour and you can drive down some back roads to see a ton of alligators. This is a great day trip from Ft Lauderdale or Miami!

Really nice museum. They offer guided tours or you can walk through the facility at your own pace. Inside the museum there's also a research center for those that are looking to do genealogy or tribal research. After touring inside, you are able to walk the grounds outside where there are also artifacts and stations to visit. I'm looking forward to visit again when there's a Pow wow or a festival of some sort. For what's offer, the price is right.
