Northern Indiana Signature Experiences

The Dig Deeper experience immerses guests in the world of real fossil discovery—from first curiosity to hands-on science. Guided by a museum paleontologist at the Indiana Dinosaur Museum, participants move beyond the exhibits and into behind-the-scenes spaces, donning lab coats, watching real dig-site footage, and handling authentic tools used in the field. They carefully clean and examine fossils millions of years old, uncovering details never seen before, while learning how patience, observation, and data turn bones into scientific stories.

The experience culminates in exclusive access to the museum’s working labs and collections, leaving guests with a powerful sense of connection to deep time—and the feeling that they didn’t just learn about paleontology, they became part of it.

• Duration: 2 hours
• $49/person and $69/for both museums and experience.
• Must be booked at least 24 hours prior to experience.
