Olduvai Gorge Museum

Very interesting place, greeted by two enormous skulls, comparing the first known humans to "handy man" human. It is possible to travel farther into the site and see the first human footprint every discovered. There's a few drinks for sale from a vendor outside and bathrooms in generally good/clean order.

Was a great stop between Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro, learnt some basic information about evolution but it was just more an experience to be where a lot of the excavations happened!

We stopped here on our way to Serengeti National Park. The exhibits were well prepared and the facilities were nice after a long drive. We did a walk down into the gorge to see where the fossils and bones were found starting in the 1950's. The walk was nice for the exercise, but there was really nothing to except a post marking the site. We ate our lunch in the shady gathering area and enjoyed the view from the pavilion. Probably worth a stop just to break up the drive.

Amazon museum that's well worth a visit. The views of the Olduvai Gorge are stunning and very rare to see such a high vantage point with the canyon valley below. The museum itself is very informative and setup well with lots of artifacts, English descriptions and quick wi-fi as well. It's a great spot to finish lunch as well.

A Must stop if you are heading towards the Serengeti National Park! Blow my mind on the history of early man! I’ve been reading about the Leakey’s and their work and research my whole life. When my safari driver told me we were stopping by a museum on the way to Serengeti I thought to myself, I want to see wildlife! What kind of a museum is out in the middle of Africa? What an unexpected and pleasant surprise to visit Olduvai! Don’t miss it on the way to Serengeti!

Perfect place for archeology and palaeontology. It is right at the site where most of its discoveries was done. You can get books too on site. Staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. Washrooms super clean. There's so much history to learn here.

A place that carries a living history of humankind. Great to meet experts who will teach you about the discovery of earliest human remains, seeing the places where prominent elites i.e Leakey family, settled to conduct their researches in the Oldupai Gorge. Suzzie in the photo, is one of the best narrators who can make you feel you're at the time of discoveries in the Oldupai Gorge... 🤗🤗 Worth to pay a visit as you drive to Serengeti national park.

Nice museum, makes you think where you come from, and how we dismiss our roots. We have to acknowledge that Africa was tge birthplace of humankind l.
