Absolutely eye-opening

5.00I was very pleasantly surprised by this display. The fossil history is extraordinary! You get to touch the thigh bone of a dinosaur, that's 80 million years old. The staff are extremely well briefed and provide excellent explanations of the theories around what we were seeing. Got to see the bone lab were volunteers were actually removing bones from the earth. Make sure you bring a big hat and lots of water. By the mid afternoon it was very hot and dry. Flies weren't too bad but personal repellant is probably a good idea

5.00We joined the tour rather than drive ourselves and were super happy we did. Small group - 14- our driver/guideJo was fabulous. We got interesting info on the way out, Jo knew birds and flora. We saw bustards,brolgas and emus and saw wonderful vistas on the private station. The stampede itself was fascinating.
Awesome , Bec probably most knowledgeable guide ever had . Great food . Fed 3 times . Saw so many wedge tailed eagles .

5.00I would highly recommend this tour. Bec, our guide was awesome. Lots of local knowledge on anything from geology to agronomy to the dinosaurs. She’s very passionate about it all which makes the tour even more interesting. Morning tea - lunch and afternoon tea were all fantastic. They pick you up and drop you off at your accommodation which makes things even more convenient. Don’t go past Red Dirt Tours on your next visit to Winton. A trip we will always remember. Thanks Red Dirt Tours.

5.00Bec was truly amazing, friendly, great sense of humour and so knowledgeable about everything to do with Winton and surrounds not just dinosaurs and the Stampede. So much better than driving out there ourselves ! Very well worth it! Thank you Red Dirt Tours
Interesting window onto Australian dinosaurs, great scenery.

5.00Bec is a really good guide. I thoroughly enjoyed her running commentary over the few days I travelled with her (1/2 day to AAOD and 3/4 day to Dinosaur Stampede). She’s extremely knowledgeable about the area, the geology, the wildlife, the palaeontology. She worked at the AAOD for many years before tour guiding for Red Dirt Tours. Her heart is absolutely in this area.
