Reviews
"Great experience. Friendly staff, reasonable price, good souvenirs. It will be great if they could host birthdays for little ones. Highly recommended."
"Initially disappointed that it was a MUSEUM and not a dinosaur zoo. The walk in aviary nearby makes up for it though. Amazing place with great displays and information. Make a day of it and take a guided tour too."
"Awesome museum for the whole family to enjoy, where you can learn and see many dinosaur skeletons, fossils and some animatronic dinosaurs. Plus a yard with enormous full size dinosaurs with plenty of photo opportunities. In the gift shop is something for everyone including gemstones such as Lapis Lazuli, amethyst and many more. And the ice age dinosaurs are in there too."
"Loved it, great for all ages, loads to see & so much to learn. Very fun and welcoming with lots of things to touch, see & hear so great for kids. Make sure to leave at least an hour for the incredible gift shop!"
