Went on a very hot day so we did part of the outdoors, then the indoors, then the rest of the outdoors. The animatronic dinosaurs are very well done. The trees and such are pretty even though it's been a drought summer. Definitely showing its age. The people working were great!

Some nice, secluded hiking trails. There are very limited animals and reptiles to see. It is time they start putting some money back into the place, as it is showing its age.

We went during the dinosaur exhibit and my son absolutely loved the "dinosaur loop" we did it 3 times. We really enjoyed our time at the Heard and can't wait to go back to see more.
