To prepare my kids in coming here, we read who were the code talkers. This code talkers photo exhibit was beautiful. I enjoyed hearing the treaty read in Navajo language. More interactive exhibits/videos of first hand accounts/life on the reservation today/more artifacts would make the experience more impressionable. I didn’t walk away with a strong feeling like I have visiting sites about the Cherokee in GA with my children.

A very good and very moving collection covering Navajo history, with an emphasis on the forced march, treaty, and other less flattering aspects of the US government's involvement. While we were there there was a wonderful photo display on the Navajo Code Talkers. There were also artistic pieces done by Navajo artists showing creation stories, legends, etc. And the people who were curators were very knowledgeable and willing to discuss anything. All in all, a great experience.

Disappointing. Building is great. There are people managing but people, public itself are not interested in their own story. Nothing to see...

We really appreciate and enjoyed the atmosphere here, the museum had outside vendors come in and set up booths to sell their arts and craft, so many booths and if you are not fast to purchase someone else will snatch it up before you make up your mind, I hope they continue to help local vendors to establish their small businesses to the public, warm facility, friendly staff and great items for sale. Reminder they enforce Mask Wearing in all Navajo Nation businesses.

Very emotional experience. My wife and I visited Bosque Redondo in New Mexico a few years ago which literally brought us to tears, and this museum ties right into the horrible events that were brought upon the Native people in that area. There is some very nice artwork on display, and the Code Talkers exhibit was very moving as well.

The lives of all people matter. The lives and history of our indigenous peoples, including Navajo, are likely more important than the most outspoken of the politically underrepresented people in the United States. Visiting this museum you will realize the incredibly important and decisive contribution that the Navajo Code Talkers made regarding the outcome of the US participation in World War II. And code talking was not the only contribution our Navajo and indigenous peoples made during World War II, they also sacrificed their lives as enlisted personnel in the war effort.

Was quite. Adequate space for our small meeting. There is a gift shop and they sell snacks. Also have a good variety of shirts. We watch 2 men fight each other. "You think you're all bad, but you're not!" One said to the other... this was the highlight.

He museam is nice. Don't forget to check out the Navajo Nation Museam Trail (Navajo Code Talker Trail) which starts just outside the museam. The 2 mile out and back hike takes you to another trail that goes to the hole in the rock.

Very cool place to visit on a road trip if you’re driving through and you don’t stop and just take a look around and take a walk around the property you’re really missing out

School wide field trip. Love that the museum is close to the zoo. Ben was our "guide" who gave suggestions and acted as a semi-guide. No guided tours since the cut off is 5th grade and up. People were working while we were there so it was like a regular day. Gift shop, galleries, offices, auditoriums are all inside. We were able to walk around ourselves and take our time. Very clean, quiet, and the restrooms were clean and in working order. For me, there could've been more history of the Navajo people, not just the Long Walk and Code talkers. I'll go back to explore more on my own.

The museum was an eye opening representation of the Native American struggle and includes the actual treaty signed with the Americans. All the art is beautiful and unique. We got to camp here through Harvest Hosts and enjoyed it. We would visit the museum again.
