An Apollonaut travel guide
A thoughtful way to visit.
Care begins with understanding the place you are visiting and being precise about the part you play.

Our part in the visit
Apollonaut sells tickets and provides booking support. The Field Museum is a natural history museum with research collections of its own, and our role gives us no authority over its work.
This page sets out a modest starting point: useful information, respect for the place and honesty about what our service can substantiate. We will describe an environmental action as completed only when we can explain what happened, when it happened and how it was assessed.
Small decisions, made with care
Before travelling, read the current visitor guidance. The museum is served by CTA trains and buses and by Metra, which can make the journey simpler than driving, and there are bike racks at the East and West entrances. During a visit, leave the displays untouched and follow staff instructions.
These are suggestions for considerate visiting. They are not evidence that buying a ticket funds preservation or reduces a trip’s environmental impact.
How we would report a future programme
If we support a conservation, community or environmental programme in future, this page will say what it is for, who runs it, how long it lasts and what evidence shows its results, including anything that is still uncertain.
Today we have no conservation programme, donation scheme, carbon calculation or environmental certification to announce, so we do not claim one.
