An early morning start pick up at 6.30am but everything well organised our bus driver Duncan was lovely and very informative. At the Age of the Dinosaur we had a lovely girl Jorgie as our guide and she had so much joy and enthusiasm, she obviously loves what she does and it certainly makes the experience something to remember.

Amazing to hear about how the dinosaurs came to be in the area in the first place (Winton). The history of the district, being an inland sea some many millions of years ago? The whole tour was well organised, Banjo Paterson's pub in Winton, Waltzing Matilda Museum, and the delightfully moreish anzac biscuits with fresh tea.

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.

The day was about dinosaurs, waltzing Matilda and the past life at Winton. The waltzing Matilda museum is well worth a visit.
