Wow wow wow! Like behind the scenes at a dino museum where you can touch the fossils, feel their weight, learn in depth about them, and then work on your own fossil extraction! What am amazing experience! Highlight of the trip for sure!

Took our kids for the Jr. Paléontologie tour and it was great! Owen was very knowledgeable and kept the content at kid level for their understanding and yet still engaging for the adults. Highly recommend to everyone with kids and any and all adults who like to learn cool stuff!!! What a hidden gem of Victoria :D

If you’re debating whether it’s worth the $40/person to visit DinoLab, I’m here to tell you that it’s absolutely is. Our son has been obsessed with dinosaurs for the last 4 years so we’ve been to quite a few dinosaur museums/exhibits/experience and DinoLab is hands down the best thing we’ve experienced. We ended up with a private tour for our group of 6 and everyone really enjoyed the experience, regardless of their age and interest level in dinosaurs. Kay was our tour guide and we loved her enthusiasm and energy throughout the tour. She did her best to tailor the experience to what we were curious about and entertained the million questions that we had. It was a great way to spend two hours in Victoria. Go! You won’t regret it!

Awesome place! I got to work on removing a tortoise shell fossil from rock in which it was embedded and the tour was fun and informative. I learned a pterodactyl is not actually a dinosaur!

Our tour included an hour in the museum display area with real fossils and replica of fossils they prepared for museums. The let us touch several million year old fossils. The last thirty minutes was spent cleaning real fossils. Unique experience.

This was by far the best stop we made on our trip to Victoria. The tour was fantastic! I loved being able to see all of the fossils in various stages of excavation instead of just the finished product" you usually get in a museum.A lot of the reviews mention this as a great time for kids

An absolute MUST visit when going to Victoria! We went on an Adults Only Tour and got to see and feel real authentic dinosaur bones. Our expert guide Owen was passionate and knowledgeable in the field and we were able to work on real fossils under his guidance. If you know nothing about dinosaurs, then all the more reason to come! :)Will be visiting again in the future with more friends and family!

Dino Lab was not what I was expecting as it is actual lab with real fossils that they have cleaned out and the ones that they are still working on. The place is small. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and explained so much information about dinosaurs! At the end of the tour you get 25 min to work with electrical tools on actual fossils - which is pretty cool!

This place was one of my favourite Dinosaur museums out there. My favourite part of this experience is that we got to use tools and dig through some rock for bone like real palaeontologist. A dream come true for any dinosaur lover.

I cannot accurately put into words how great this place is (but I'm going to try). I visited a couple months back with a friend, and we had an absolutely amazing experience!Everyone was very welcoming and enthusiastic, and the tour was very fun, and engaging.With how much you get out of the tour, I was honestly surprised they only charge $40 - and they even let you work on fossils (we got to work on proto-sheep jaws).If you like dinosaurs, I highly recommend visiting!*Edited to add more detail*
