Definitely Alberta's best kept secret when it comes to Museums. Royal Tyrell is usually the go to for dinosaur tourists but this museum was a little diamond hidden in the prairies.
We came here by making a reservation and had the guide take us through every display in detail. Very knowledgeable and very passionate about the material, you will learn an awful lot about geology, dinosaurs and evolution. It should be clear when you come in that it's presenting from a Biblical creation model, but as I'm sure many people discover, that by no means isn't scientific or not based on evidence.
The museum is very small (no bigger than a small house) but the tour is quite elaborate. We spent about 4 hours going through everything and never felt bored (and that's considering I've spent less time at Tyrell and gotten more bored). The displays are very professional, very informative, and the layout is very user friendly.
It only cost each of us $5 (prices vary by demographic/group) but the tour is really worth way more than that. All of us thought the presentation exceeded our expectations.
It should be noted that the many negative reviews found in various places (here, tripadvisor, Yelp, etc) are commonly made by people who never set foot in the museum (the owner and guide confirmed that). It's a long way to go but it's a tour that's great for families, Christians, skeptics (he's had quite a few) and anyone who likes to be challenged in their thinking.
Would recommend this to all my friends and family. :) read more
