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.

We booked this Tour, online, directly with the venue before we left home because we were unable to book a tour with the local Tour Company. We drove ourselves to Winton from Longreach, a trip of about 11/2 hours each way, not difficult.

As my husband is unable to walk very far, the staff at the centre were very helpful and we were able to enjoy a shorter tour, involving a visit to the laboratory and the film and talk at the centre.
Watching the people actually working on the finds from the diggings was very interesting, and our guide (Jacob) was very informative.
Everything was very well done and well worth a visit.

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

The whole trip was extremly well planned and kept to schedule (when everyone arrived back to the bus on time). The driver/guide was excellent with a great knowledge of the local area. Our trip to the Dinosaur museum was excellent and informative. We were supplied with tea/coffee and home made anzac biscuits for morning tea.

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.

Today we jumped on board the Outback Pioneers coach and drove to Winton to go and see the dinosaur museum
The dinasour museum was Amazing . We visited Winton and the Waltzing Matilda Museum
We explored the shops in the Main Street and bought souvenirs .
We went to the North Gregory Hotel for lunch - the meals were beautiful .
We walked out the back of the North Gregory Hotel to look at Arno ‘s Wall - what an eye opener . It was someone’s treasure ( once upon a time ) cemented to a concrete wall . Some of the things stuck in the wall were motorbikes type writers , lawn mower. Hubs , fans , sewing machine , oven doors .wheel trims , engine parts and the list goes on and on and on , so does the wall .
I am so glad we caught the Outback Pioneers bus . They do such an amazing tour , well worth the money . We enjoyed our day out and I recommend it to all ages
Also the North Gregory Hotel has a caravan Park out the back of the hotel.

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.
