Itinerario
Drumheller es una ciudad al noreste de Calgary, en Alberta, Canadá. En las afueras de la ciudad, en el Parque Provincial Midland, el Museo Royal Tyrrell contiene una gran colección de fósiles de dinosaurios.
Horseshoe Canyon en Canadian Badlands es un espectáculo alucinante. Párese en el borde de este enorme cañón en forma de U y observe la belleza y el misterio de las tierras baldías. Las paredes del cañón con rayas granate revelan las capas del tiempo hasta el período Cretácico, cuando los dinosaurios vagaban por un exuberante hábitat subtropical hace unos 70 millones de años.
Los hoodoos tardan millones de años en formarse y miden entre 5 y 7 metros de altura. Cada hoodoo es un pilar de arenisca que descansa sobre una gruesa base de esquisto que está coronada por una gran piedra. Los hoodoos son muy frágiles y pueden erosionarse por completo si se desprende su piedra angular.
East Coulee está ubicado a lo largo del río Red Deer, rodeado por un paisaje excepcionalmente hermoso conocido como Canadian Badlands. A solo minutos de Drumheller, es un lugar tranquilo y un refugio acogedor del ajetreo y el bullicio de la vida moderna. Almuerzo - almuerzo por cuenta propia.
Este puente colgante no es muy largo ni especialmente alto, pero definitivamente no es para cardíacos. Hecho de malla de alambre transparente, se balancea como un junco de río con el viento. El puente fue utilizado por mineros desde 1931 hasta 1957; Puedes ver las minas ahora cerradas al otro lado del río Red Deer. A pesar del uso anterior de botes de remos y teleféricos, el puente se consideró peligroso debido a los fuertes vientos y las inundaciones y se cerró porque se considera peligroso para su uso.

El Museo Royal Tyrrell en Drumheller es el único museo de Canadá dedicado exclusivamente a la ciencia de la paleontología. Además de albergar una de las exhibiciones de dinosaurios más grandes del mundo, el museo ofrece una amplia variedad de programas creativos, divertidos y educativos que dan vida al pasado prehistórico.
Horsethief Canyon es una visita obligada mientras se explora Canadian Badlands. Párate en el borde para disfrutar de unas vistas espectaculares del valle. Si te sientes aventurero, camina por el sendero empinado y explora el cañón que lleva el nombre de los forajidos que escondieron aquí su ganado robado hace más de 100 años.
El mirador de Orkney es una atracción turística popular que ofrece impresionantes vistas del valle del río Red Deer.
Calgary, una ciudad cosmopolita de Alberta con numerosos rascacielos, debe su rápido crecimiento a su condición de centro de la industria petrolera de Canadá.

Harry was an amazing tour guide. It was below freezing all day, but he brought us to the best places and kept us warm. He has wide knowledge and is very invested in his clients having a great time.
First looks at the horseshoe canyon were great but then the tour became repetitive. Attractions advertised in the tour description were closed on Mondays including the Dinosaur Park museum. No refreshments were provided on an 8-9hr tour so on top of the $800 plus to book it became a very expensive outing to see very little. Guide was also not very well informed.
Had an absolutely amazing time! The only reason I gave it a 4/5 was because the driver didn't seem very familiar with the schedule or when places are open/closed. I say this because we did miss going to the mining museum. They were closing when we drove up and the driver hassled the museum guides as they were leaving for the day, which we told him not to do. They were clearly closed and it wasn't their fault and telling them "I have a van full of people wanting to go in," was awkward." The driver was a nice enough guy, but he should have run a timetable by us throughout the day to make sure we got to everything. Would still do it again, because it's worth not driving around all day back and forth from Calgary and all the other locations were fantastic.
Our driver and guide Henry was excellent. He showed us 7 main sights and attractions in and around the town plus going to a restaurant for lunch. Henry was friendly and courteous while giving us flexibility in times for each location. Thank you for a great day.
Wonderful day trip to the Badlands. Our guide was very friendly and helpful. Our 2 hours at the Royal Tyrell Museum was the highlight. I wish my grandchildren were with me because they would have loved it even more than I did. It was superb. The rest of the day was very good also with my favorites being the Hoo Doos and scenery of the badlands. Great tour.
Tour booked for 3 of us, visit to Tyrrell Dinosaurs was the highlight for us, but a rush with only 90 minutes instead of 120 minutes so very disappointed. The areas we visited were amazing and the Badlands with the different layers of time are something to see from the variety of viewpoints offered. The Hoodoos were strange, East Coulee offered history and dinosaurs seemed impossible!! Windows were obstructed with lettering so viewing and taking photos was difficult and again very disappointing. Driver very nice and friendly but not forthcoming or informative about the areas we visited - a glorified taxi service that I definitely would not recommend
Great service! Our driver was very nice and kind and took us to very beautiful places, the history museum and the horse shoe canyon are places that you need to visit at least once in your lifetime, Me and my family are overall very satisfied with this tour.
Driverseat guide, Shirle was a great and covered several places. the horse shoe canyon, dinasaur museum and hoodoo mountain are very educational. They are a must see.
Excellent day trip to the Badlands covered Tyrell’s Dinosaur Museum (best in the world), Horseshoe and Horse Thief Canyons, Hoodoos and much more. Driverseat (tour operator) went above and beyond our expectation. This is a really different day trip and well worth doing. Private transport and your own driver from Driverseat just make it even better.
