We decided to go out to Drumheller to visit the Royal Tyrrell Museum on a holiday and visit the dinosaurs. My little girl was beside herself as we went through the exhibits. A great mixture of hands on, display dino's, and interactive kids areas. We used a coupon and were able to get in for $11 (Family of 3). Children... More

Have you arrived in Calgary for a visit, then you need to take the drive to the town of Drumheller where the Royal Tyrrell Museum makes its home. The specimens this museum has are amazing. It is very family friendly and has many hands on examples for the kids to touch. I have been to the Natural Museum in London,... More

The dinosaur topics were specific to Alberta, and in particular, Drumheller. Afterall, trying to cover hundreds of millions of years all over the world would be impossible. The tickets were very reasonably priced ($12 each). Don't get lost finding the place, it is 10min or so out of downtown Drumheller. Although well posted we first accidentally ended up at the... More

Very well presented indeed. There was the wow factor in many of the exhibition halls. Although not a subject that normally appeals to me, but I was bowled over by it. If there is a downside, then it has to be the Cafe. Limited choice & the guy serving was pretty clueless. It was virtually empty at 1pm yet the... More

We went to the museum with 8-year-old son who loves Dinosaurs. It was the second time we went there.there are a lot of dinosaurs fossils and facts, it is a really educational place. They have special activities during the summer but when we visited the museum this time, there were not any of them. I guess it is better to... More

We went to the museum without any real expectations, boy were we surprised. We marveled at the history within the museum and also at the ability of people to recognize that what they were looking at was of great significance.

We went to this museum at least once a year in the Summer and never got bored. So fascinating and so much to learn. Staffs were very friendly as well. The exhibits were very well maintained and very educational. They also did a great job keeping young minds engaged. They have pretty limited lunch menu, so I highly recommend packing... More

I knew this place would be nice, but it was amazing!! Go 1st thing - it gets VERY busy and the parking lots fill up (but they have people helping). I loved walking around! Things to see for all ages. Outside there are walking paths to enjoy the sights. I didn't like walking through the very cramped & surprising small... More

I love this place. It has the right mix of exhibits that appeals to all ages. From the walk through exhibits, to some great video clips, to some artistic exhibits, and then being able to see the people working in the back cleaning bones or making molds. It's all very fascinating. one thing that struck me is the exhibit titles/explanations... More
