We took an Uber to Museum, so, I can’t comment on the parking, but we went on a Sunday and it was not crowded. The person at the information desk was very helpful as we did not know where to start our tour. He said they usually have people giving tours, but it snowed the day we went so the tour guides did not make it in to the museum that day. We just did a self guided tour at our leisure and it worked out well. We toured the dinosaur exhibit, the gems, and the Egyptian mummy tomb inside the faux pyramid. That was very cool. There are spiral steps leading you down into the tomb, well done!
