The museum was amazing. The van was cramped and hard to get in and out. The trip was organized with plenty of bathroom breaks.
Z is a great guide! He is very knowledgeable about the area and the places we went to. The stops were fun, great scenery and a good variety of attractions. I felt like we had a good amount of time at each stop. We were also very lucky with fantastic weather.
Awesome! Totally didn’t know what to expect going into this but it was so much fun. Z was our tour guide and he was great.

Really unexpectedly fun tour. Definitely worth the visit, unlike anything you have seen before. Zee was a very good guide aswell
Very good day at the badlands and dinosaur museum. Z was a great tour guide.
Zee was a fantastic guide! He was very knowledgeable and a delight to travel with. We really enjoyed Horseshoe Canyon and the Royal Tyrrell Museum. The rest of it was less impressive, but still enjoyable.
It was great overall, be ready to look at rocks all day. I would adjust some timing, ex make last chance hotel shorter stop and extend hoodos. Zee was kind and entertaining. Bus was chill enough for a hot summer day, it’s not the best for sleeping but comfortable enough. I would suggest to add food information to description.
Great opportunity to see some really unusual sites including a fabulous dinosaur museum. Zee our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job keeping us on track for the day!
