Incredible exhibit well worth the trip - The tour guide and information centre definitely loved showing us the exhibits. This exhibition is fantastic. Luke the cart driver and John the tour director were so friendly and welcoming. They are a great team, including registration and catering. The exhibition facilities are incredible. Best of all the dinosaurs a great exhibit for young and old. I am definitely going back - loving the outback too. Winton is a great time must go to the Royal Theatre too

Educational visit - We specifically went to this part of Queensland for the dinosaurs and it didn't dissapoint. We loved it and learned a lot. Great to see the enhusiastic volunteers telling their stories. Lots of work to do to unravel the rest of the collection.

Amazing - We found this tour to be very interesting. The tour was 1.5 hrs. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. It really is wonderful how they moved the creek bed and now can be viewed by the public. Didn’t have the time for the other tour but certainly worth a visit.

Great day out for all ages - This was a fascinating day. The Fossil Workshop showing a bit of history of the finds and actually watching the people cleaning the fossils. Tennyson gave a comprehensive talk on further history and fossils found to date. Daniel then drove us to the Dinosaur Canyon. All tour guides were excellent. We found the 4 hours very interesting & informative. Better than what I thought. Great day out. Highly recommend.

Check on partial tour - Went there with 2 young kids (5 and 2), was a bit hesitated to find out from there website and brochure that they only do 4 hrs guided tour. Went there to check it out anyway,when we are there,they actually offered partial tour which us more suitable for family with young kids.

Enjoyable Dinosaur Experience - We choose to do the 3 tours, Canyon and March of the Dinosaurs, the Fossil Laboratory and Collection Room. There is a cafe on site and plenty of parking and time between tours to grab a snack or bring your own. We enjoyed the 3 tours and learn't so much about the dinosaur trail in Queensland and how they were discovered. Do the Fossil laboratory you can chat to the volunteers who are working on the fossils that are found during the digs. A very informative 4 hours. We chose to do all 3 rather than drive out to Lark Quarry but you can just choose what you want to see and do especially if you have kids.

Good visit - We were here in 2020 and they were building new exhibits so we had to come back to check them out. They have an undercover dinosaur stampede area which was a bit disappointing after our visit to Lark Quarry stampede which has much more detail in the footsteps of the dinosaurs. The staff member we had on our tour was a bit abrupt. All is all is still very good place to visit.

Pretty interesting and worth a look - So it’s an interesting way to spend an hour or two and provides some really informative information about the landscape 95 million years ago. At times it’s a little slow paced and probably not ideal for smaller kids unless they’re really into dinosaurs. The valley walk was kind of cool. Expensive and it would be nice to be able to do parts of the experience at a lower rate perhaps.good though.

A disappointing experience. - Although we were greeted on arrival by staff member Peter who was most helpful our tour was not the greatest experience. The tour guide requires further training on delivering the tour, we did the 9.45 March of the Titanosaurs tour. As the narrative of the tour ran over time there was no time left to visit the canyon, to see the bones, statues and for the tracings etc that we were told would be possible. The tour guide needs further support in learning time management to prevent a disappointing experience as she too kept saying we would have free time after she finished to see everything. Very disappointing, we do not recommend visiting as the time, effort, and expense that it takes to get there could be better spent on different experiences around Winton.
