Really nice museum that keeps expanding and growing. They sell themselves as “nonprofit organization” where everything that they collect is used to expand and fund the museum. Such a young museum and yet already owns a master piece, that also became the reason to be founded. The “Kronosaurus Boyacensis”. Unique of its kind, well kind of, there are other that were found but what makes this one unique is how complete it is and that was kept through the years in the exact same place where it was found! Quite impressive! The ticket price is average and I strongly recommend to wait until the tour, our guide was professional and knew a lot. The museum can be quickly see, you get a brief introduction and then it goes straight to the point. I really recommend the visit. Also, there are some nice souvenirs made my locals that use the profits to help their families. They appreciate any contribution that can made. :)

About 5-6km from Villa de Leyva, we cycled, you just need to climb over a hill. Its a small museum, apart from the big fossil there is not that much to see. The signs are in Spanish and English. Good for about 30min visit. There’s another little fossil museum on the main road, it’s a pity they don’t offer a combination-ticket to view both

Great fossil museum. If you are interested in it you find here unique and well preserved fossils. Also here lay almost full and original fossil of Kronosaurus. It's very impressive. Enterace costed 30.000 COP. You can also buy some unique small fossils in the souvenir shop.

This museum features the skeleton of a Kronosaurus, over 100 million years old. It is a guided tour, with information about this part of Columbia and the prehistoric animals that lived here. It’s a nice little tour.

Very nice but needs more support from government or privates

Impressive community museum, with a complete fossil of Kronosaurus boyacensis, quite unique, and other fossils found in the area. Our guide was a smart young woman from the community. Highly recommended!

It's a short visit but well worth it. The fossil is impressive!

The prices aren't noted at the entrance of the museum. We payed 20k/people > don't know if this is the correct price. The main fossil is great, the others parts of the museum aren't really interesting.

Incredibly interesting! First, the in situ kronosaur was amazing. So big that I had to take a diagonal photo to fit ït in the photo. Secondly, my eyes typically glaze over very quickly in museums and don't read many of the informational displays. I read almost everything because it was presented in a fascinating way.

Very nice and very well maintained museum. It’s very nice to see how the community has kept this very nice museum.

I love a location where they build the museum around the fossil! It is incredibly well done with good context! Every sign is in Spanish and English. They have a collection of items from all over Columbia, though mostly from their local area. It is still an impressive collection. Some displays were still under renovation when we were there. They loaned us a wheelchair for my mother without a deposit.

Amazing!!!!! I don't understand how more people don't know about this place! The guide was so knowledgeable and friendly, so accommodating! Thanks, unforgettable experience!

Great place to visit, great gift shops and a lot of information about the area and it's origins in the dinosaur era and a wonderful dinosaur exhibit

Pretty amazing and there was absolutely no one there but me and my friends due to the decrease in tourism during these Covid times. Everyone who works there is pleasant and helpful. Reasonably priced souvenirs too.

Great

They need tailor the tours more towards children. The lady stars by talking about a Kronosaurus but doesn't even explain what it is, despite of having kids in the group. The museum should also have a part explaining the process of excavation, etc. Otherwise it is a bit boring overall.

(Translated by Google) Excellent place. (Original) Excelente lugar.

Nice experience, guides have good knowledge in local history and paleontology, the kronosaurus fossil is astonishing.

Very fascinating museum built around a massive Kronosaurus fossil. About a 1hr walk from Villa de Leyva along dirt roads and the highway, but just follow the directions and you’ll make it there! Entrance fee was 10,000 COP

Incredible place and cute museum. It makes my heart bleed to see how they encased the Kronosaurus in a strange plastered floor, but at least they saved it from being stolen and brought in some moist european capital

Incredible story. The guides through the tiny museum are fantastic. The history of the planet revealed in a small way with the creation of the Andes in Colombia. Farming at its best and the discovery of the kronosauras, one of only four fossils in the world at this location.

Beautiful museum where you can see fossils of ammonites and other ancient species of animals and plants. The fossil of the monquirasaurus is remarkable. You’ll spend around a 1-1.5 hours here.

Beautiful place, very well maintained with impact to the community

I give props to this place. It was built and is run by the local community. In other words, it does not have any funding by the Colombian government. It is small, but organized and informative. There is a guided tour in Spanish, but I don't know if there is a tour in English. Anyway, I learned a lot about the prehistory of the region.

Very simple museum, but it is still impressive to see a real fossil

(Translated by Google) Very good for the skeleton that there is but very expensive to enter for so little to see ... (Original) Muy bueno por el esqueleto que hay pero muy costosa la entrada para tan poco que ver...

A place to know a little about dinosaurs from 110 million years ago

The only place of its kind in Colombia. If you are from a big city with a proper museum you won't find anything special about it.

Outstanding. It is very nice to see that a community can get together and defend what is yours. It is a small but very nice hotel with a beautiful specimen of cronosaurus. Definitely worth seeing.

Love the duck. Not a "must see" spot, but it's small and if you're nearby it's a cute little place to visit.

Good place to know about history of dinosaures and other extinct animals

Awesome place the landscape is insane

Great little paleontological museum. Presentations on the generalities of paleontology and the particular findings of the area. Unfortunately, "El Fósil" (the main attraction) was not available for observation.

(Translated by Google) The place is beautiful and they attend it very well and with great care, it is not cool to go with very young children (Original) El lugar es bonito y lo atienden muy bien y con mucho esmero, no es chevere para ir con niños muy pequeños

(Translated by Google) Very cool (Original) Muy Chévere

(Translated by Google) The Fossil is a petrified animal discovered more than 50 years ago, since the place had been sea more than 3000 million years ago; Today there is a museum and in my personal opinion it is the best place of tourism.
