Dinosaur trip

Published on Oct, 2024

The trip is definitely worth it! Although it’s kinda tired, but very fun! Meagan is super fun, and she is a good guide!

Simply amazing

Published on Oct, 2024

Simply amazing tour. With only 3 people, it felt more like a private tour than anything else. Our guide was lovely and accommodating, and was full of information about the places we visited- the Hoodoos were the most fun but Royal Tyrell Museum was by far the star of the show.

A Great Day Trip not to be missed.

We had a wonderful tour with Habib, who was very engaging and informative. A bonus was the audio guide during the trip to Drumheller which gave more information about the geology and history of fossils. We could have spent more time at the Royal Tyrell Museum, but it was very busy due to our visit being during school holiday time.

very nice trip with many exciting places
