    What a great experience! There was so much for the kids to do and learn, in addition to be able to spend time in the butterfly room. Of course having butterflies flying all around you was fantastic....  more

    What a gem! We came without kids- being interested in it ourselves and in that carefree time of our lives of grown children. The guides are wonderful, engaging and informative. As our guide shared on the amphibians and others…her enthusiasm was such a delight to see. We recommend. If I had a little one in tow I am sure we would have been there long, long time. Be careful of hitchhikers.

    That place is a must stop. Sarah, wow she was so awesome and knowledgeable. Great vibes and happy staff. The butterflies were well loved and beautiful. The whole experience was amazing. It’s a under an hour visit- I was with 2 other adults. Great entry price, clean and affordable souvenirs. Thanks guys!!
