If you've traveled I-4 between Orlando and Tampa, perhaps you've seen this sign with the giant dinosaur and wondered, "What is Dinosaur World?"

That reminds me of what Dr. Alan Grant said in the 1993 movie Jurassic Park, "Dinosaurs and man... two species separated by 65 million years of evolution, have suddenly been thrown into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea of what to expect?"

You can expect to be surprised... I was!

Directions

Dinosaur World is located just north of I-4 at Exit 17 (Branch Forbes Road). Take a left on Harvey Tew Road, then left into the parking lot. Parking is free.
