If you thought dinosaurs didn't celebrate Easter because they were extinct, think again.

Bamburgh Castle has revealed a 'Saur-some line up of Jurassic adventures for visitors to the coastal fortress to hunt out this Easter.

Already known for its links with the world's most famous on-screen archaeologist Indiana Jones after starring in the recent box office film Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Now Bamburgh Castle is looking forward to welcoming a new archaeologist adventurer in the form of Professor Foss-Cecil and his Jurassic team for an Easter safari that's not to be missed. 

Become a Dino-Discoverer with Professor Foss- Cecil who'll be teaching visitors everything they need to know to become a fully-fledged dinosaur spotter - but will they become a master 'Saur trainer or end up dino-dinner? Enter the Jurassic Activity Tent with themed crafting stations and activities, fossil finding and rubbing, digging for gems and cave painting.  

Professor Foss-Cecil's Jurassic Safari takes place on Saturday 6 April - Sunday 7 April and on Saturday 13 April - Sunday 14 April.
