This is a wonderfully comprehensive tour of the Drumheller/Badlands region. It is well-paced and covers a lot of ground. The Royal Tyrell Museum is the undisputed highlight of the tour. Raj is a great guide and conversationalist, both informative and friendly. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Drumheller and the Badlands.

I really can't say enough positive things about my tour Friday! It was well timed, my tour guide was informative and entertaining but not over bearing giving me time to take in all of the sites. Really enjoyed all of the stops along the way. This Drumhellar tour far exceeded my expectations. My favorite part would be the Royal Tyrrell Museum. Highly reccomend!

The tour was great and very well paced. My issue with most tours is that the stops are too long and I get bored. At first, I was hesitant about 2.5 hrs at the dinosaur museum, but between the exhibits themselves, hike rout, viewpoint and lunch there’s actually a lot to do. Overall, I feel like it was efficient but not rushed.
My group was 4 people (+ the tour guide Raj) in a van. The vehicle is new, clean and has enough space. Raj was accommodating and gave a lot of info. Overall highly recommend if you came to Calgary without a car and want to see something other than Banff. The terrain in the Badlands is out of this world

Thanks for your review, I keep trying to improve it. And I'm glad you had a nice day.

A well paced tour. A lot of time at the Royal Tyrrel Museum, which is good because the exhibits are extensive. Short stops for places like Hoodoos, horse thief canyon and horseshoe canyon where you are essentially just viewing the landscape. Guide was very knowledgeable. Also a small group tour, which is good.

The trip cost is so worth it. Our guide Raj made sure that we are comfortable during the tour. He is very organized and knowledgeable about the history of each place that we visited. I’m a solo traveler and he is kind enough to take photos of me. Highly recommended!

Thanks for the review. Wish you all the best for your travels.

An amazing day with the most amazing guide. The trip to see the dinosaurs and Badlands in Drumheller was fantastic. From the beginning when we met Raj he made us feel comfortable and completely filled us in on all the useful knowledge we needed about the landscapes and discoveries. I would recommend this day trip without hesitation.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thanks for the recommendation. Enjoy your visit in Alberta.

The Tyrrel dinosaur museum and tour of the Badlands are amazing, our guide Raj was very knowledgeable on the places and their history, enhancing the experience.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank You for your commendation. Wish you safe travels.

Unfortunately Drumheller was doing maintenance on two major attractions which dampened our enthusiasm a bit. However, our guide Raj went out of his way to more than make up for this. It was a lovely trip. Raj is knowledgeable and helpful. The museum is breathtaking and the badlands an unexpected but extremely interesting experience. Raj took us out, even though only two participants. WOW! Thank you!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you for your kind words. I learned a lot from you too. Hope to see you again in Calgary

Highly recommend this great day trip from Calgary! The tour was very well-organised with a knowledgeable guide and personalised itinerary. I learned so much about the area, and really enjoyed the museum and other unique and fascinating sites. An awesome experience while in the region, shouldn't be missed!

"When booking a tour as a solo traveler, cancellations are a risk. Not with Raj from Rocky Charter! The trip to Drumheller this August was perfect. Raj's professionalism and passion were evident. The itinerary balanced iconic sights with unique, local spots. His historical knowledge and warm personality made the tour feel personal. Raj's dedication is a huge asset to his business and is highly recommended to anyone seeking a reliable and exceptional tour experience. Book with Raj—it won't be regretted."

First off, the communication with the tour operator (Raj) is really good. It ended up just my husband and me=a private tour!
We enjoyed the whole day so much. The sites we saw:
The Royal Tyrrell Museum which is phenomenal, Drumheller and all the dinosaur statues
Wayne and the Last Chance Saloon
The Hoodoos which you need to see in person because photos don’t do justice
Horseshoe Canyon- the views from the top and the bottom
Raj made sure we were happy.
He’s a great safe driver and provides commentary during the drive.
He also plays a narration from a tour guide app that is interesting and funny!
We feel like we lucked out picking this excursion.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to manage your day in Drumheller. You are delightful guests, and I hope you enjoy your Alberta Tour.

Raj is fantastic! He has a lot of knowledge about everything in the tour, and even beyond! He listened to our requests and very accommodating. We had a memorable day thanks to him. The sights to visit were very interesting. Enough time spent in the museum which is huge, and enough time spent in all other sites too. We did not feel rushed by the schedule and we had a great day overall and learned a lot. Thank you Raj!
