Good overview of the modern history of the area from the driver. Saw lots of birdiife. Dinosaur Museum was great especially the trackway.

Our driver was very experienced and gave us the local knowledge but I found many of his comments boring, dated and sexist - considering most of travelers were women ! The lunch at Winton Northern Hotel was more of a kids sized meal of either fish n chips or bangers and mash - both pretty cheap meals to prepare.
Great day out

The day was about dinosaurs, waltzing Matilda and the past life at Winton. The waltzing Matilda museum is well worth a visit.
Our team building trip gets top marks.

So many great memories. The long drive from Longreach to Winton seemed to flash by as we listened to some wonderful real cattle farm stories. We were amazed with the Age of Dinosaurs exhibits found right in the local areas. What we learned from the experts was so informative we quickly passed the time on the trip back to Longreach. Tea and homemade anzac biscuits kepts up all happy till we reached Winton and had an amazing time at the Waltzing Matilda centre. A really special adventure for anyone of any age.
Overall it was rather disappointing.

Commentary from our tour guide was good and the visit to the Waltzing Matilda Centre was good. The rest of the visit was below average. The tour was overpriced for what we experienced. The visit to the Australian Age of Dinosaurs was disappointing and was rather deflating.
