Royal Tyrrell Museum

Kids would love this place. The land is amazing as it gives the impression of real dinosaurs are living there. The museum is worth to visit. Enough car parking space and is free but charges for museum visits.

Fun place to take adults and children to learn about the history of the dinosaurs. Amazing well placed exhibits. Great descriptions. Easy to find your way around. Staff are relatively helpful, but don't seem very happy... I would have given a five star, but the rest room outside the cafeteria was super small and no tissue available in a couple of the ladies stalls.

A beautiful display of fossils from around the world. The museum has done an excellent job explaining the history and significance for each finding. We came on a Sunday afternoon, there was no wait and we bought tickets on the spot. Expect to spend about 2 hours here going at a steady pace without kids. With kids you could spend 4 hours here easily. There are pretty views of the badlands and hiking trails at the top of the stairs outside. Inside, be sure to check out the greenhouse area - it's tucked away and easy to miss if you're not paying attention.

Must visit if archeological wonders, dinosaurs and magnificent living creatures interest you !Perfect for kids from 5-10 years age. Great for other kids too. I loved it as an adult too.The original remains and fossils amazed me the most.

Amazing museum that we enjoy visiting as a family. Kids always love coming from when they were 2 years old until now (almost 10).Very engaging exhibits to walkthrough. The museum is set up really well where it keeps all people walking in one direction and everything is built using ramps which makes it excellent for wheelchairs and strollers.Each time we visit we learn so much! Definitely recommend taking workshops when offered in the warmer months... We still talk about the casting one!

I can not truly put into words how amazing this place is.We visited on a Monday during term-time, so the crowds weren't too bad inside.There was no queue to enter as multiple staff were handling ticket sales smoothly and efficiently.There was good parking, and the grounds were well maintained.The inside of the building was immaculate, all glass displays were spotless, and every interactive exhibit was in perfect working order.The layout of the museum is brilliant. It guides you through each exhibit in a way n which you don't miss a single thing.There is an abundance of seating for regular rests: This was very useful for myself personally.The toilets were accessible and clean and placed strategically throughout the museum.The information on each specimen offered a perfect balance in terms of readability. The information was succinct and to the point, making it accessible for children and adults alike.There was a lot to do to entertain children! We saw children walking around with quiz sheets, and there are lots of interactive areas, videos, and a section dedicated to interactive play and exploration.I could have spent a whole day here and still not see everything! It's definitely a place I will return to on my next visit to Canada!As is normal for museums, it was an exit through the gift shop: I found there to be a large variety of gifts and souvenirs with something to meet all budgets!This place is suitable for all ages, and the entry fee was very reasonable considering the wealth of fossils on display.The cleanliness and accessibility of the museum was very impressive.Strongly recommend anyone to visit!

If you are in Alberta visiting this museum is a must. They have over 2 million fossils dating as far back as 500 million years ago. My 8 year daughter and my 80 year-old mother both equally loved our few hours spent there and we could have spent a few more. The price is extremely reasonable, the staff helpful, the facilities and food area very clean. A unique, world class museum well worth a visit.

An absolute must-see museum for any museum or dinosaur fanatic. It boasts a great collection with lots of information. A great glimpse into our worlds past. There are interactive stations to keep kids engaged. Restrooms are clean and staff is friendly. There is a big gift shop with an array of different souvenirs to buy. The Cafe has a decent selection of food.

I made the trip from Calgary with a friend specifically to visit this location. Adult entry is $21, and it takes approximately 2.5-3hours to tour the museum. If you love dinosaurs this place is amazing. At times the exhibits seemed a bit crowded, as though they needed more room.There is a nice informative walking trail outside that gives information about the Alberta badlands.Definitely worth the visit for dinosaur lovers and enthusiasts.

A lot of real, incredible fossils here - not just casts. Terrific museum and Alberta's best. The cafeteria also serves surprisingly fresh salads. Underrated is the Badlands hiking trails and views just outside... I recommend planning 1 - 1.5 hours in your visit just to do the outdoors part.
