Sadly the museum is being renovated and half of it was closed and many of the exhibits were missing. It would have been good to know this before travelling from Melbourne to see them. The website d…Full review by Terry B

The best history of Australian war there is. Such a great exhibit. Even my 4 year old enjoyed it. Starting at WW1 it is a great journey through history and brings the stories to life in such a real …Full review by Ed S
The ticket allocated by the AWM allows a 3 hour visit - are you able to stay on longer than this? It appears 3 hours is not long enough at this impressive monument.
A:
We were there longer and didn't have any issues. I suspect that would depend on how busy the day is.

Hi John, Start on the M1 until you are able to join the M2 for a short time, then join the M7 until you are able to connect with the M31 (Hume Hwy). Mostly all toll roads but you will save much angst/time and many, many traffic lights. Drive time if you stick with the speed limits will be approximately 3hours 30 - 40 minutes / often many police and speed cameras. All roads are good and virtually traffic light free. make sure you book a two-hour visit at the War Memorial; it is also my understanding you are able to book additional two hour lots online. A straight out two hours is not nearly enough to see everything on offer...good luck and enjoy!
