    Visit only if you can spend 1 to 3 hours as minimum required to play and enjoy the facilities they provide in this mini golf course. Else try when less crowded that is likely only on weekdays as weekends are crowded. Very good for beginners or who want to try their hands at golf. Kids also enjoy. Thanks for the response from the owner on my above review. I fully endorse your inputs and my intention is to highlight to fellow travellers that it is worthwhile to spend 1 hr to upto 3 hrs at this place as there is a lot to play and enjoy as you golf ahead. Truly a delightful experience. Enjoy.

    Fun mini golf course! It's fun and unique with the dinosaur figurines, and the huge volcano in the middle! We did this with the $35 bundle, and thought it was fun and worth it! I highly recommend going either very early or late at night to avoid the crowds. It can get very busy; we went around midnight on a weekday, and it was still a little busy, but we didn't wait in any lines.

    SOOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!!!! We were there on a cold day but still made it through. Really like the layout and they have some creative holes. All the kids and the wife had a great time. We almost payed for a second round to play the other course but when we finished we saw how busy it was and how backed up it was. Next time we're in the area we will definitely stop and get another round in. Too bad they don't serve cheeseburgers or hamburgers or onion rings....we definitely would have eaten there. Or even pizza we all like that.

    This was a blast. They have 2 courses, an easier one that's better for beginners and kids and a more challenging one. You can do either, or both. Each take about an hour. They can be very busy on Saturday nights.

    Fun and entertaining mini golf. Outside venue is really great. Playing a round earlier in the day will give you less of a wait. There are two options/courses. Suitable for all ages. Price point is OK. Lots to see and watch at Clifton Hills in addition to the models featured on the course.

    This was the first thing we walked up on was this and it was a ton of fun!!! It was in the morning still which was nice because it was already getting hot. The volcano spits actual fire!!! We loved it and would totally do it again!

    Fun and creative mini golf in a great location at the top of Clifton Hill. The dinosaurs are well maintained and there is even a working volcano. Prices are good considering the location and the length of the course. The fun pass was not available during our visit during Covid, but this would normally bring extra value. There are no issues with any of the holes and the course is well maintained. The attraction can be busy, but the staff are very visible which helps to keep things in order. Thank you and I would highly recommend taking the time to try this course.

    We did the easy course for our first visit. Turned out to be a lot of fun with enough of a challenge! Sure I lost to my girlfriend, but we both won a super fun experience! Looking forward to our next visit to try the difficult course!

    Such an awesome miniature golf park! There’s 18 holes and some are easier than others, but as beginners they were all hard but so much fun for us! We highly recommend this miniature golf park, one can easily kill 2 hours here, or maybe 1 hour if you’re a pro! 😃

    Went as part of $35 pass and really enjoyed it. Played the easy 18 with my two young kids and we all had a great time. The volcano really gives off heat when it "erupts" and the Dino figures are well done. Well worth playing imo. We went late on a week night and line ups weren't bad. Located right by the sky wheel.

    How fun! Not too bad in price, the parking is what gets you! $20 to park, $11.99 to play mini golf. There were two courses you had the option of playing—one for beginners and one that was more advanced. As you’re playing, the volcano “erupts” multiple times , creating such a cool experience (not to mention all the dinosaurs surrounding the holes). It took us about an hour to complete the whole course, only because you end up waiting behind others in front of you. Overall, super fun and would make for a perfect family activity/date night!

    Nice outdoor mini Golf place right on the Clifton hill beside the skywheel. Overall a nice place but line up is often too long. Most of the people play in a group so often you have to wait 20-25 mins on each hole for your turn which can be tiring especially during bright sunny day. Not enough sitting benches or any shaded area to sit while waiting for your turn. Niether outside drinks allowed nor sold in side so make sure kids are fed and fully hydrated before walking in. Volcano fire is the best part and you cant miss it. Overall a nice place to enjoy your trip to the fall

    I am from Mexico and I was here in 2002 when I was 6 years old, nice to watch because it is nice to see dinasours at the avenue, It is a nice place to take a photo, nice to have a good experience playing mini golf.

    So fun! The red course is a little more challenging than green. Loved looking at all the dinosaurs and hearing the sound effects while playing. Try to go when not busy.

    Fun times, does need some upkeep. Can take a while depending on who is in front of you playing

  • 4/5 Rachel 10 months ago on Google
    Fun course, but it wasn’t in the greatest condition and gets extremely busy with long lines at each hole. We went within an hour or two of it opening and it wasn’t too busy, but we saw the lines later on for each hole were several groups deep. Would not have wanted to play during that time. I recommended getting the fun pass and going early

    Really good, 36 holes, at the beginning you decide right or left, 18 holes each side... Clean, not to easy, good for all ages. I tried with two other adults and three kids and we spent maybe a hour. Recommended.

  • 5/5 Kal S. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing experience! The kids loved it, it’s almost perfect. 18 holes but each with its own twist and character. The staff were friendly and the level of hygiene is at a good level.

  • 3/5 Sherri B. 1 year ago on Google
    I have mixed feelings on this one. The greens themselves are well maintained and it was a fun course. I loved the dinosaurs and the sound recordings coming from the bushes. However, I would think that with the amount of money they're raking in they could find a way to repair some of the broken ones. I love that the course is lit up by the ferris wheel which is right next to it. Plus it's right in the heart of Clifton Hill which is a fantastic place to take kids and is included in the Clifton Hill fun pack.

    It's such an enjoyable experience. The dinosaurs all look great and there are tons of them throughout the course. With the ferris wheel close by the photo opportunities are endless. The kids love it. We have gone twice already, once to do the easy and then back again to do the hard course. Staff is friendly and took a family photo for us.

    A very enjoyable place to golf at, the dinosaur theme gives it a different feel to it. A volcano, many dinosaur statues and some dinosaur sounds coming out of speakers decorates the course. A golf place that is affordable and family friendly, though it is sometimes anoying when there is allot of people waiting in line for the 18 hole course. I would recommend that they give a 30 minute delay for every group to enjoy or another strategy to let people enjoy golfing without rushing. (Photos taken from the sky wheel)

    Dinosaur adventure golf is a great activity for any occasion! The prices are extremely fair and the courses are designed for all ages! The atmosphere and overall design are fantastic. Staff are always friendly and helpful!

  • 5/5 Zsolt A. 4 months ago on Google • 47 reviews
    They use audio, water vapour and light effects to create an amazing atmosphere especially at night!

  • 5/5 Gursharan K. 6 months ago on Google • 46 reviews
    It was fun, spent 3 hours here, kids enjoyed alot. There are like 18 mini golf areas. Sometimes the spots get busy and you have to wait for your turn. Turns out kids liked this activity the most

  • 4/5 Semilore O. 10 months ago on Google
    It's a good golf course. The dinosaur attractions are really cool. Hated the wait time in the golf course though. We were just standing waiting for the person infront to finish.

  • 4/5 Electric G. 9 months ago on Google
    Was fun with the kids but the greens need some love (renovation). Some additional benches and shadow would be good when it is really hot and sunny.

  • 2/5 Luigi R. 11 months ago on Google
    So as a mini golf place it hits the spot, course is good, and it takes a legit 45-60min to do.. besides the actual 18 holes, I’m sure the admission also pays for the visual experience, but this is where the places fails. Everything looks tired, or is broken, and not working. Some of the displays Dino’s are broken, no water in the river/waterfall, no fire in the volcano, dead plants.. I would fix these items or adjust the price if you don’t want to offer the full experience

  • 5/5 Samara C. 1 year ago on Google
    Tons of fun! Expect it to take a little while. You'll golf a bit and wait between homes, but you can fill that time with looking at the cool dinosaurs!

  • 4/5 DrSil 7 months ago on Google • 39 reviews
    Amazing place for kids specially dinosaur / jurassic world fans. Good family friendly activity . Light and sound effects are awesome as well as the volacano blast with water fall. Evening time was more busy but worth it as the lights make it more exciting for kids. I wish the area was monitored by staff along the golf course as some were not following the posted rules and a toddler was running around picking up golf ball so that was frustrating.

  • 5/5 Zaid S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience! Whether you’re part of a group, solo, or with your family, your fun is guaranteed at this place! It’s fun, adventurous, volcanos blowing, dino roar, waterfalls, you name it! Very reasonable price, will take an hour or less depending on the number of players, lotsa fun!

  • 5/5 M A. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a fun time! We went here on a Friday at noon and it was great, not too busy. We did wait a bit to enter after a family as I had read reviews that they don't time your entrance, so we had enough distance. We chose the course to the right side (with green flags) this one takes you under the volcano, it was fun and a bit challenging at times, I got my first hole-in-one ever and managed to do it once again almost at the end, we were done in about 25 mins. Definitely a fun experience to have while visiting the falls. Once the volcano "erupts" it does get hot if you're near, so beware of that. We will definitely be back soon, I just hope, like many others have pointed out, that they start timing your entrance, specially if it gets busy as it could be hard to maintain a safe distance.

  • 5/5 Jason W. 2 years ago on Google
    Lots of fun great family night out loved the tough course, we went two times me and my parents haven't played mini golf in years as a family.

  • 4/5 Abraham A. 2 years ago on Google
    Staff are friendly enough. We tried the simpler of the two courses, and it was some fun. Prices are what you'd expect from the street that is presented as the exemplar of a tourist trap in Canada on Wikipedia - but it can keep the kids busy for a while. The holes were fairly straightforward for the most part - no clever tricks or mechanisms - but in recent repair. The volcano in the middle let out a flame a few times during our run and you could feel the heat. If you are stuck behind slow players, are are slow players, there could be some uneasiness - at least when we went there were people going in right after each other. Also social distancing was a bit of a challenge couple of times. All in all, we had fun with the kids.

    The covid safety of this place was taken seriously which made my visit much better and less stressful. It needs some TLC and repair to the dinosaurs but the course was fine and fun to play through.
