    One of the best indoor attraction for kids! They have lots of activity to do, educational & interactive. They have sand box where they can discover dino fossils, topography, puzzle, bike alley, shoot a dino range, ball tubes, playground, tug of war with a dinosaur, color a dino drawing and give it to a ranger after so they will scan it and the dinosaur can be seen on the screen, they can brush a dinosaur's teeth and many more. The best part is they have an in and out access for the day of your pass so you can go out eat and come back later. You can fill out the waiver ahead online so you don't have to do it onsite. Been here a few times & It's worth every visit! Will definitely come back for another fun day with our kids.

    Dinosaur fans will love it! Great for birthday parties, though charging for adults makes it a little expensive. Perfect for hot days since it's indoors. Just the right size--2 hours is plenty to have a blast!

    You can really brush a dinosaur teeth!

    Grrrr, let's get out and see some real good fun! It's always time to entertain the littlest of friends and their children. My children even had fun too! Try finding something to do in Vegas that's family friendly! It's getting better! This is a fun event and experience for the kids. This is an opportunity for children to touch and are engaged in activities and truly learning . We took some friends here and the twins even got engaged . Actually, when my daughter was dating, they had a couple of times they went here. So it's an all ages experience. It's truly cute and you can wander through the whole thing. At the end you can go and play in the park like slide they created. The employees here are truly amazing and make it easy and fun for the kids. They explain the process and keep the experience and environment interesting. It is one of those events that you need to keep your self motivated to get the little ones engaged . The "mom" ladies will come out here to keep the kids happy. That smile is the reward. We had a great time and you can stay as long as you want . At the end the play place created was so much fun too. The adults get in and show the kids how to play . Epic fun and engagement! Let's go! Dinosaurs do exist ! I've even brushed their teeth! Come and see !!

    We found this place while shopping at Town Square. It was $48 for my husband and I and my son was able to get I free. I thought that was pretty pricy but I know it's to recoup the revenue lost on kids that get in free. They do have a locals discount which is always a plus. My son enjoyed it. They have moving dinosaurs, a small play area, some sandboxes where you dig for fossils, you can fish (no water) and ride on the dinosaur ride. They also have a small gift shop where you can get some souvenirs. It's a quaint little place that kids elementary aged and below would enjoy. I would go back and let my son blow off some energy as he definitely had a blast.

    This place hit the jackpot (pun intended) with my little one. It's about 2 miles away from the strip in an outdoor shopping plaza. I stumbled across this place in my social and my little one loved it so much. Prior to visit: complete the waiver online and buy this ticket on their website. They have pricing for locals and non-locals but if you buy the tickets online and use promo code "Nonlocal"...you can get the price for locals. In and out access all day. We left for lunch and came back afterwards. Entrance: I won't ruin the surprise but your little one will absolute feel like the has the power to open the doors of Jurassic Park. Inside the play area, there is so much to do: - most of all the dinosaur moves with dinosaur roars - several activity stations. (Fishing, trex brushing station, pulling a triceratops, water table, fossil digging in sand, play obstacle with several levels, drawing with the images projected onto the screen, etc) Gift Shop: everything dinosaur themed thing you can imagine. The best part about the gift shop from a parent perspective...everything is reasonable. I absolutely can tell that the owner is a dinosaur fanatic and created something really amazing for kiddos. The dinosaurs and play areas has been really taken care of since I couldn't spot any wear or tears. If you are headed to Vegas on a trip and live nearby, this place is an absolute MUST VISIT. After this visit, this is going to be one of my spots in Vegas. Special shout out to Ranger Michelle for making my little one have such a great experience!

    What a cool and memorable little spot for the whole family. Would definitely recommend. The ranger ash who brought out the Dino babies was super nice and helpful. Until next time thank you Dino outpost.

    This is a great place to take your kids for a few hours of fun. It really only takes a solid hour to do everything but my kids had a great time. Especially my dinosaur loving daughter. There was a scavenger hunt with Easter eggs when we went. The giant dinosaur the kids can sit on and take pictures was a nice surprise. It moved a little too. There were several interactive elements that I thought were a nice touch, like brushing a dinos teeth. The little pedal bikes were for small kids but it didnt stop bigger kids from getting on them. All the staff was super friendly and nice. This place is clean and fun. I just wish it was around when my kids were a little smaller. I feel its defintely for 8 and younger. Sadly my girls just turned 9.

    We were lucky enough to attend a birthday party at Dinosaur Outpost centrally located at Town Square in Las Vegas (park near Yardhouse or Guitar Center). It was such a fun party! The kids enjoyed the interactive experience, the playground, and the Dino ride. I liked that once you were inside, everything seemed to be included in admission. I know the price tag is a hindrance for some, as it costs $20+ per person. I think if you go on a day when you have plenty of time you can make it worth your while as you can leave and come back after lunch or nap. Looking for kid friendly things to do in Las Vegas can be challenging - this educational and well air conditioned attraction is a good one to add to your list!

    Dinosaur Outpost is definitely a fun spot for kids! The place is filled with dinosaurs that move and make sounds, which is pretty fascinating to watch. There are also some great interactive activities for kids, like drawing their own dinos and then scanning the drawings to see them come to life on the screen -- such an amazing experience. There's also a play area with a swing and slide, and kids can even ride a dinosaur, which is a fun touch! Overall, it's a fun experience for the little ones, but the downside is the price. It's $24 for locals, and they charge for both kids (3' and up) and parents. For example, I took my son and ended up paying $48, which seems a bit high given the small size of the area and the fact that you can only spend about 1-1.5 hours there.

    Dinosaur Outpost is located at Town Square in Las Vegas. The shopping center has many restaurants, stores, an arcade, and a movie theatre. There is plenty of parking when you arrive, but you may have to walk a little to get the Outpost. There is a waiver to sign before entering so I suggest you get that done before getting there to save time. The person in the front desk was extremely patient and spoke to us about the best option for pricing since we were a party of 11. They offer discounts for military, seniors, and teachers. If you are a local, you pay less as well. My party included 5 adults and 6 kids. The kids ages ranged from 2-13. I must say they ALL had a great time! The younger ones didn't want to leave. This place has it all! The visuals are amazing! The dinosaurs look real! They are built to look extremely detailed. There is a ton of information regarding the different dinosaurs. There are puzzles, coloring area, sand play area, an area to build, a soft area to play, an area to ride little bicycles, a small eating area, and a store. This place is very interactive and inclusive! It isn't a large place but kids can spend so much time at each station and can learn so much as they are involved and engaged by hands on activities! A team member actually came with a small dinosaur in her hands so kids can pet it. Everyone who works here has the best customer service and it's obvious they care for the guest experience to be one to remember! I have NEVER seen a more friendly kid bathroom than at Dinosaur Outpost. They are also very clean. If you have little children, this is a great place to enjoy learning and do it while having fun!!

While we've always thought the prices were high for what it is, this year, the prices for the experience was truly not worth it. They offer various packages, 1 hour, 3 hour, or unlimited. We've done all the options in the past, but this time we opted for the hour wristband as we arrived later in the evening ~ 7pm on a Friday night. We wanted her to have time inside too to play in the arcades. Time doesn't start until your first scan for a race or ride. They conveniently scanned us in for our first race and we were seated, in our car, for a solid 10 mins while they sorted out other drivers and go-karts. We got sick from exhaust blowing in our face as we sat there with all the cars running yet not moving. When we finally started the race, it was less than 5 minutes! Half of the cars were either dysfunctional or set to a slow setting with no rhyme or reason. Our next race, our daughter was so excited she is tall enough to try the sprinter car on her own (58in) so we went to check that out. We waited 10 mins for a race to finish then the worker told us she could only fit 8 racers despite there being 15+ cars. So we had to wait another round. Another 20+ mins gone. Half an hour in, we only had 2 races in. In total, we were able to get 5 races in the hour time frame (one of which was past our time limit, but the worker let us go anyway). We have been going to Mini Grand Prix for years and this was the worst experience by far. The races are shorter, the lines are longer, the wrist bands are more expensive and the facilities have not been updated. Our daughter, on her own told us, it's not the same anymore : (

I also like doing new and different things. I've gone go-cart riding, I took a shooting lesson once, and I have gone sky diving. One thing I've always wanted to do was learn to drive a forklift so this sounded like my thing. I heard about this place while researching unique things to do in Vegas that didn't included gambling or the Casinos. Once I found there website I was excited to give them a try, but was undecided on which option to book. There were so many good ones. The idea of driving a bulldozer and another option to use an excavator and crush a car sounded exhilarating. I was a little nervous about finding a way to get there as they are so far out of the strip. I was worried that the LYFT driver wouldn't want to drive that far out of town to take us there or pick us up. They are located 20 minutes south of the Strip, which is a quick LYFT ride that costs under $40. And to be houses it can be the same amount of time to get around the strip and back to our hotel, the Rio which is off the strip at night when it's the busiest time and traffic is so heavy. The trip there is almost all freeway. I was a bit nervous when I found out you have to sign a waver not holding them liable if you get injured. The price of the big equipment is between $195- $320 ( Each sessions last between 45 to 90 minutes and range form age 8+ or16+) The most exhilarating one was $799 and you get to use an excavator to crush a car.. Now that sounded like the most fun. That's called the Aggression session and lasts 45 minutes. The age for this is 14+. Driving a bulldozer sounded fun too. Being so nervous I ended up booking the kid's dig. There you get to operate a 1.5 ton excavator. That seemed safer if they offered options for little kids and I mean little. Age 2+ can operate the excavator. Depending on their size they may have to sit on someone's lap. The kids dig is $29.50 for 15 minute increments. You can book multiple sessions. And for each session another person can be the operator. You can't split sessions between multiple people. Prior to booking I did call them and talked to Taylor I believe and she assured me as an adult without a child could partake in the Kids Dig. She assured me that other adults have done it and it's still a lot of fun. We went the last Sunday in May 2026. Our appointment was at Noon. I wanted to make sure I had enough time so I booked two 15 minute sessions. Having two sessions allowed us to each try it. My husband said he'd just watch and be my photographer, but I waned to give him the options too to try it out and he did and enjoyed it. Probably not as much as I did, but he had fun. Alex my instructor was amazing. He continued to yell out directions till I got the hang of it. I was doing it with another kid next to me and I felt Alex was really paying attention to me even though he was direction both of us. I was in heaven as I dug dirt out of the ground and created a giant hole. 15 minutes was plenty for time and I relinquished my second session to my husband. I had so much fun that I wanted to share the fun. I had trouble on my own remembering what to do so he continued to give me directions till I got the handle of it. I wonder how little kids so it as I was having difficulty remembering what to do. On the other hand kids play so many video games these days so they may be more used to this rhythm of movement. I highly reccomend this activity to everyone that is looking for something unique to do in Vegas. This was the highlight of my trip to Vegas. I'm so glad I overcame my fear of getting to and from Dig This. I felt very safe using the excavator. It's a little nerve wracking at first as you lean back a bit when you are digging. You really don't need the photo package as your companion can walk all around you and take pictures and videos. This only works if you are confident in their photography and videography skills. I had my doubts so I bought the photo package and I'm glad i did as Alex go a really good action shoot of me. And I'm a total photography lover. I like to capture the moment and I feel like the money is worth it not to miss the moment. When I went Sky diving I hired a photographer and videographer too and it was so worth it. The digital photo package with plaque is $67.93. If you just want the plaque it's $37.93. It's so much of a better deal to get the digital photo package as you get a minimum of 5 shots. We got 17 for the 2 sessions and that was of both my husband and myself. I was thrilled with Alex's photography skills and his ability to catch those action shots. If you have reservations do the Kid's dig. It's only $29.50 and have your companion take your picture and it's a total steal for all the fun you'll have.
