Tucked away in an unassuming industrial area near Tillicum, Dino Lab Inc. is one of Victoria’s most fascinating hidden gems. Part science lab, part museum, it’s home to real dinosaur fossils being cleaned, restored, and prepared for museums and private collections around the world. Families can book tours to step behind the scenes and see paleontology in action — a rare chance to get up close with genuine fossils and prehistoric creatures.
The experience is hands-on and kid-friendly, making it perfect for curious minds who love dinosaurs. You’ll learn how fossils are discovered and preserved, see real bones and casts, and maybe even touch a piece of history that’s millions of years old. The team at Dino Lab loves answering questions and sharing stories about their discoveries, and every visit feels like a mix of science class and adventure.
Tours are by appointment only, so plan ahead — it’s a popular spot for school groups, birthday parties, and weekend family outings. Whether your kids are dino-obsessed or just curious about the past, Dino Lab is one of those unforgettable Victoria experiences that brings science to life.
