We all loved our visit today. Lots of different butterflies to see and if you look hard enough caterpillars too. You can get round in an hour if you really want but we took our time. We left and came back and hour before closing and because of the stamp on your hand you can go back around again which was great. Gift shop was very good. All the staff were nice too. Well worth a visit. Thanks

Beautiful place. Forever one of the best ive been to. I will say I was surprised to see there was Atlas moth Caterpillars! It was a beautiful day and its nice to see that theres 1000s of butterflies since my last visit. Thoroughly recommend it. I would however call ahead for some things, like the snake that was advertised on the website not being there and was one of the reasons we'd gone. And it says theres wild iguanas but none were seen in the facility. But other than that great upgrades in years since the last visit and very well kept.

Lovely place so many butterflies, if you are lucky you get so see them emerging as new butterflies! A few other things to see here - leaf cutting ants very cool! It's very warm inside anyway and if you go on a really hot day it's insanely hot so bear that in mind. We will be back again soon!

Really lovely place to visit. Loads of beautiful butterflies flying around and the whole place feels calm and well looked after. The reptiles, fish and Ants were a nice extra to take a look at! Staff were friendly and there was more to see than I expected. Nice way to spend an hour or two.
