What Does the Land of Giants UK Tour Include?

Imagine walking alongside the legendary giants from your favourite films like Jurassic Park or Ice Age. That’s what you’ll get at the Land of Giants UK Tour… With a whopping 50 life-sized animatronic beasts, including Ice-Age beasts and fan-favourite dinosaurs at Maxstoke Castle grounds, each step takes you deeper into prehistoric times. These giants aren’t just big — they’re gigantic and they’re waiting to meet you!

If you’re really into your dinos, you’ll find that these 50 life-size animatronic dinosaurs are from the Jurassic, Triassic and Cretaceous periods! Every epic beast will have robotic moving parts, including terrifying arms that can grab you (not really, but if they were alive then…), tails that sway side to side, heads that move, blinking eyes and of course…a horrifying ROAR! The sound effects are so epic, that you’ll feel it in your bones!

You’ll come face to face with the ferocious T-Rex, a 16-metre tall Diplodocus, 8-metre Triceratops and more impressive creatures. Are you brave enough to approach the snarling raptors? Don’t forget to let your kids have fun in the fossil dig activity – what can they unearth?!

But that’s not all…you’ll also see Ice Age creatures! From the woolly mammoth and sabre-toothed tiger to the Yunnanosaurus and Protocerpatops, plus more! They’ll be sprawled out across the 4 acres of grounds, so you know you’ll have an amazing family day out discovering the incredible dinosaurs and giant beasts from the Jurassic & Ice Age era. You’ll even be able to read all about them on the information panels provided too!

Since the limited-time event is set mostly outdoors, the tour lets you soak up the sun while the kids have plenty of room to run free and safely. So, don’t forget to bring sunscreen and sun hats! 

All we know is that your 90-minute experience exploring the Maxstoke Castle grounds will be one to remember!

Please note that Maxstoke Castle won’t be open to the public to walk around inside.
