Customer Reviews
A terrifying, horrible place. The animals are kept in unsuitable and unsanitary conditions. The entrance fee was 15,000 ARS. There was no guide or staff anywhere along the route. In the serpentarium, there was water on the ground and along the paths. The animals were kept in very cramped and unmaintained spaces. The butterfly garden had no more than 20 butterflies. It was heartbreaking.
One of the worst places we visited, and the price was 10,000 pesos until November 2025... the most expensive thing you'll pay to see abandoned animals. The place seems completely abandoned. Supposedly, it has owners, it's private, and they don't receive any help. But if they merged this place with Uira Oga and used this space as a laboratory and other facilities, and the animals were in Uira Oga, it would be much more interesting. As it is, they have to close it down. That butterfly enclosure with orange slices everywhere. If you go with children, they can look at the animals and it's fine, but if you see it as a person... forget it. The people who serve you are very friendly, but the place... go somewhere else, people. Don't waste your money on this. It's better to go eat at a restaurant.
It was fun taking pictures of butterflies. It wasn't nice when descriptions of animals were missing. Some descriptions were incomplete.
