Nina GraziJanuary 19, 2015Such a cute place!!!! Great for kids. Take pictures holding the animals so much fun. Train ride for kids and playground. Bring lunch with you they only sell pretzels cookies and dippin dots
Hector RodriguezOctober 6, 2018As a petting zoo is amazing, as a water park mediocre at best for teenagers but tons of fun for younger kids to tweens. Very friendly staff who made sure we had an awesome day.
- Madison MichelleJuly 26, 2011Great place! Got to hold an alligator, monkeys, a parrot, a bearded dragon, & a baby kangaroo. The VERY BIG tortoises & the liger were very interesting to watch. Beautiful place w/ a really nice staff
@DayngrAugust 7, 2014This is an authentic piece of Miami history. Formerly located near Monkey Jungle & now closer to South Beach. This is a must visit tourist destination!
The Ritz-CarltonSeptember 19, 2012Want to get up close and personal with Red Kangeroos or a Capuchin monkey or two. This is the place. VIP privately guided tours take you behind the scenes. Book in advance.

Zach DealOctober 11, 2018Nothing is good here. Don’t visit this place. It’s extremely overpriced, there are no good animals, and the kangaroos look malnourished. If you want to waste your money, go to jungle island.
Marc EpsteinJuly 16, 2011Definitely worth the $5 to see the Kangaroos and Wallabee's. You can also take a picture with a baby kangaroo.
Tori Gray Line OrlandoNovember 17, 2010Join a Gray Line Orlando tour to Miami and visit Jungle Island - take the VIP experience and get up close and personnel with some of the animals!

Marcjanna WestfallJune 10, 2012Spend the $45 & do the lemur tour! So much fun! Ducky was adorable :-)
Conrad Hotels & ResortsMarch 18, 2016
Steven H.July 20, 2012There's no charter bus parking. You'll have to park across from the Children's museum.
Sarah LopezJanuary 2, 2014Total waste of money. You can't see the animals in the tanks, all the animals you can see they charge you extra to take a photo of, and Frosty's island is an extra $10 a head. Boring rip-off
ZakiyahJuly 21, 2012Pretty depressing "zoo" all the large animals are in tiny spaces and the birds are over fed. Not a fan at all.- Marcjanna WestfallJune 10, 2012Meh... Half the park was under construction. It sucks that you can't take any personal photos with the animals you hold, but I guess thats how they make their $$ to fund the place. Wish there was more
Papi RicoDecember 8, 2013This winter park thing really suck if you go you will be wasting your money and your kids will be bored and the snow thing is a scam you have to pay extra just to see ice sucky Christmas park ever
- We have a delicious breakfast from 7 to 11 am !! Very good price
Amanda HaddockOctober 9, 2011They won't let you take pictures with any of the animals you can touch. You have to pay over $20 for a single photo. Ridiculous! They could learn a lot from Disney.
