Popular interactive dinosaur exhibit Jurassic Quest is returning to the Alamo City this weekend, transporting us back 165 million years.

Now 10 years old, the traveling Jurassic Quest show touts itself as the nation’s largest, most scientifically accurate dino expo — and it certainly corrals an impressive herd of realistic-looking thunder lizards.

Designed to be both fun and educational, the exhibit covers the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods through interactive displays, realistic tableaus, a self-guided scavenger hunt and fossil digs. Also included are animatronic baby-dinosaur meet-and-greets — which include a baby Camarasaurus, a T-Rex and Triceratops — and the largest rideable dinosaurs in North America.

Perfect for thrill-seekers and budding paleontologists alike, Jurassic Quest collaborates with scientists and leverages the latest research in the field of paleontology to provide viewers with authentic replicas of the way dinosaurs looked and moved, providing a prehistoric adventure to children of all ages.

$22-$95, noon-6 p.m. Friday, April 11, 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday, April 12, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday, April 13, Freeman Expo Hall, 3201 E. Houston St., jurassicquest.com.
