My wife & I were sailing on what they call a back-to back cruise (Same ship/same cabin - two 7 day cruises with different itineraries booked as one 14 day cruise) It departed from Miami, sailed the Southern Caribbean, returned to Miami, Sailed the Western Caribbean, and then returned again to Miami. We referenced tripadvisor.com (much like you're doing right... more

I'm surprised at the negative comments. I've been to Jungle Island twice in the past year and I had a great time on both visits. I was there over this past week-end and I found the staff to be very helpful. I was waiting for the bird show and put some money into a soda machine, but it turned out... more

It's not worth it!! The food and water are very expensive and they don't even have water fountains. Employees are very rude too. Miami metro zoo is a lot better and less expensive. more

Jungle Island is not even worth paying a visit to once for the price they charge. Miami Metro-Zoo is far more of a great experience. There are very few animals, and the big high-lights like the liger aren't very visible because of the poor cages blocking the view. Of course they need to be in a secure area, but it... more

The natural animal settings were both relaxing and natural. My family loved the Parrots at the entrance we had a great family picture taken and the staff was fun and friendly. The Bird show was enjoyable and informative with a great mix of audience participation, once again the staff here was great. all of the exhibits were clean and fun... more

Dwidjaya-I I'm interested in what exactly happened to have you walk out. I was considering this place on my Florida trip this winter but it seems steep at $42. more

This is the worst park in Miami and terrible does not even begin to describe my experience there. My family and I went to the park on Mother's Day and did not even make it inside. The ticket booth attendant was so rude to me in front of my child. When we complained to the manager, he did absolutely nothing... more

I went to Jungle Island on April 23rd. The admission was $34.95, and mandatory parking was $7. There were many animals to interact with, especially the large tropical birds. The park was not all that large, but the species variation was good considering it was a private enterprise. The caging for the animals, especially primates, was more to serve as... more

The park was o.k. There wasn't much to see. You can feed the parrots and watch the shows that they have throughout the day, but i would never go here again. It is not worth the money. more
