Badlands Tour : Drumheller con museo, Hoodoos e dinosauri
Descrizione
Inizia la tua giornata con un panoramico viaggio di 1,30 ore da Calgary a Drumheller, dove le praterie dell'Alberta si trasformano negli spettacolari canyon delle Badlands. La tua prima tappa è Horseshoe Canyon, una valle mozzafiato a forma di U con scogliere stratificate e sentieri escursionistici. Successivamente, visita il famoso Royal Tyrrell Museum, che ospita una delle più grandi Collezioni di scheletri di dinosauri, e goditi una breve escursione sul Badlands Interpretive Trail. Fermati alla piccola ma piccola Chiesa prima di dirigerti in città per vedere il più grande dinosauro del mondo alto 26 metri. Passeggia nel Downtown Plaza di Drumheller per negozi e snack, poi pranza in un caffè locale. Nel pomeriggio, esplora l'Hoodoos Trail con le sue iconiche formazioni rocciose a forma di fungo e visita lo storico ponte sospeso Star Mine. Se il tempo lo consente, scopri il sito storico nazionale Atlas Coal Mine. (Nota : chiuso per la stagione. Nelle chiusure, visitiamo il Saloon Last Chance.) Concludere con un panoramico viaggio al tramonto di ritorno a Calgary.

We were extremely disappointed with our tour. This was mainly due to the car and guide. There were 5 people squeezed into a Honda Pilot, lic. 0-FW959 white. Every time we stopped my friend and I had to climb out of the back seat, and climb over the middle seat flipped over. I am an agile Senior but this was not how I wanted to be transported. As we were the smallest in size we were relegated to this back seat. To have paid $129 per person, it should have been a bigger vehicle. Our guide appeared to close his eyes and slightly wander across the center line several times on the way to Drumheller. He denied that he was sleepy but all five of us felt very unsafe. His English was not fluent enough to be a guide, he could not answer basic questions about Calgary. He was just a driver. But that was not how the trip was advertised. As for the Dinosaur Museum. It was great and I highly recommend a visit there. The in-depth models and information was outstanding. I would recommend the trip just find a fluent, competent guide. We could not understand him when he said his name but his car licence number was listed above.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry your experience didn't meet your expectations. This tour had only five guests, so a Honda Pilot was used. Unfortunately, it isn't practical to operate a larger van for such a small group. Regarding the drive, there were very strong winds that day, which can cause vehicles to shake and require frequent steering corrections. Safety is always our top priority. We also appreciate your comments about the guide's communication and will take them into consideration. We're glad you enjoyed the Dinosaur Museum and thank you again for sharing your experience.

1 - Terrible experience! We booked the day before and went to the hotel as requested to be picked up and NO ONE SHOWED UP! They did not notify us that they decided to cancel the tour since there were not enough people. Not even a text message. We needed to call multiple times to a phone that went to voicemail. When the finally answered, that was their excuse
We’re sorry to hear about your experience. We communicated the cancellation properly to TripAdvisor, and they sent both an email and a message regarding this. We believe the notification may have been missed.
The trip was excellent. It started on exact time. The driver was patient and friendly, he guided us through all the stuff. He didn’t rush on any site.
Thanks you so much for taking time for the review

Thanks you so much for taking time for the review
Went on Monday August 10 it was so crowded in the museum , it was hard to read any of the information about the dinosaurs , people were posing for pictures in front of them , shoving an pushing you. Might be better in the fall to go back an see it .
It looks like your feedback is specifically related to the museum experience. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts. We hope you’ll consider booking with us again during the off-season for a more relaxed experience, and we trust you enjoyed the rest of your trip.
