Lots of butterflies which are fascinating but smaller than expected. I think the price of the ticket is a bit steep considering.
A little overpriced for the size of the butterfly house, but there was a wide range of butterfly breeds, plus a butterfly themed gift shop inside! Just as a heads up, it's incrediblely humid inside the butterfly house
The area is very nice, it’s located in a local park and there is a very relaxing atmosphere, at least on Friday, weekends might be different. Butterflies are beautiful but the whole experience is very expensive and lasts for 5 minutes or else you’ll die of humidity and heat XD
It is quite pricey for a small butterfly house, but I liked it anyway. There were a lot of butterflies flying around, resting on leaves, feeding on enctar from flowers, or on the feeding station. There was a puparium full of cocoon, and small bits of information all around. I even saw one caterpillar. I particularly liked seeing the Blue Morpho butterflies flitting about, they were very pretty. There are staff members who can answer your questions, but I used Google Gemini to tell me more facts. You really don't need to spend a long time in here, as little as 10 minutes. I spent about 45 minutes, because I wanted my money's worth and to enjoy seeing all I could of the butterflies
Amazing place! You can really see the butterflies up close. There was a nice volunteer who explained things and even placed butterflies on our hands.
What a fantastic little place. Beautiful butterflies living among some beautiful tropical plants. Absolute joy to see them and watch them flying around and eating. Book your ticket at the main museum desk or if not too busy they sell tickets directly at the butterfly house.
Beautiful selection of a variety of butterflies and tropical plant life in a small orangery/greenhouse type building. It is very humid and hot in the enclosure, incase people didn't know, and they have a no pushchair policy. Had a lovely time getting my little girl to point out how many different butterflies she could find.
It's so small for the cost of 1 adult and child. We were in there for less than 10 mins. It's ridiculously hot and way too humid. Where in the world do these butterflies come from that it needs such humidity? I was born in Trinidad and Tobago and we have loads of butterflies, some of which I saw in there and it's no where near as humid. There was also hardly any butterflies and not a wide variety either. Very disappointed.
Just fantastic! Friendly staff beautiful butterflies and an amazing place to make memories! Please visit and see for yourself.
