Dinosaur Journey Tours

Museums aren't all dusty cabinets and dull displays. Make your way to Dinosaur Journey and be inspired, educated and entertained. Every piece has a story waiting for you to discover.

This museum in Fruita comes recommended by many travelers, so make a spot for it on your travel plans. Don't think that's all there is to do here, though. There are a lot more places waiting for you to appreciate after Dinosaur Journey. James M. Robb – Colorado River State Park, Adobe Creek National Golf Course, and Western Slope Vietnam War Memorial are nearby.

6.4/10 (1,000 reviews)
I liked the initial support and kindness and attitude of my staff person who checked me in. He was there and quite stressed out in the morning when his person who was supposed to work on the breakfast had not shown up. It took him a little time but he hurriedly tried to get breakfast items together.

10/10 Exceptional! (1 review)
Spacious, luxurious, modern house. Small kinks here and there but promptly addressed by the management. Excellent location, outdoor dining with views on red rocks and LaSalle mountains. Would benefit from a better coffee maker.
