What an absolute blast, this place was awesome! The whole place was fascinating with non-stop "wow that's so cool" comments! It wasn't cool in temperature so be prepared when outside. The tours are… Full review by Melissa B

We didn't have time to do the tours on the day we visited but I'm assured that what ever you decide to do it would be well worth it. Very well set up place. We walked around the rim to one exhibit … Full review by MarkE20

I booked in advance for me and my husband. I'm glad, because I got the tours that I wanted. There were big queues on the day that I went, so some people weren't so lucky. Unfortunately, my husband w… Full review by maynessal
Hi all! I know a question has been asked about this a year ago but just wondering if the dog kennels at Age of Dinosaurs are safe for a small fluffy dog? If not, does anyone know anyone in Winton that does casual dog sitting?
Hello, we're visiting in early June, and were wondering what the road out to the museum was like (Dinosaur Way). I know it's gravel, but is it an easy road to traverse, or a bit tricky. We have a small SUV vehicle. Thanks for any help or insight

Age of Dinosaurs is an easy drive on bitumen road but I think you might be enquiring about Lark Quarry -Dinosaur Stampede that road is different there is a lot of gravel road. When we travelled in September last year it was in good condition. Your small SUV would still be ok to travel on that road however if there has been a lot of rain the road gets to be a little trickier but if you are at all concerned ring Lark Quarry because staff travel that road regularly & they could give you a more up to date road condition.
Can you provide an update on the kennel situation please? Is it safe and secure to leave a small dog there? Thank you

You need to look up the Age of Dinosaurs website and then phone them. You would certainly not be able to leave a dog in a car out there as it would be too hot and the experience involves a number of tours that you need to book prior to going there. I know that bookings are very heavy out at Winton at present, so I would advise any travellers to book everything well ahead. It is certainly not a museum that you can just rock up to and wander around on your own.
Hi do you have to take one of the tours or can you just look around by yourself? Thanks

I advise people to take a tour. You can go on your own but you would not really see anything. There is a tour which takes in all three places and well worth it. They are all fascinating places and full of interesting facts about the Dinosaurs. We just went on the Age of Dinosaurs it was brilliant. We booked at the pub in the centre of the Main Street. We were the only two people to book so they took us in a four wheel drive instead of the tour bus and the driver waited for us, he didn’t rush us when we were ready he took us back to town What a Great service.
We went by train first class, there was a special deal, 2 for one, this was in January. We enjoyed it immensely. Bus was waiting in Longreach and dropped us off at the motel. Local pub …
We went by train first class, there was a special deal, 2 for one, this was in January. We enjoyed it immensely. Bus was waiting in Longreach and dropped us off at the motel. Local pub owner dropped us off at the Dinosaur park and picked us up again when we were finished. Make a few phone calls and ask the accommodation if they can do this for you. Good luck
