I am a huge fan of the biopark. There is so much diversity, everyone will find something interesting. From the kid's garden (equipped with huge bumble bees), to the Japanese garden, to the Curandero's herb garden, there's lots to see. You can even get married here (which I did)! Visit, trust me, you won't regret it. more

For $12, you have access to the gardens, the zoo, and the aquarium. The aquarium is quite small and should take about one hour. We were disappointed with the gardens. I imagine we were there the wrong time of the year. Not much was in bloom. You can hop on the train and take it to the zoo. It's not... more

For $12 adults and $5 children you can enjoy a full day exploring the zoo, aquarium and botanical gardens. There's also a great little train ride included in the price that takes you between the zoo... more

The Biopark is an oasis in the desert. I find that anytime I get tired of the everpresent brown, I can just drive down to the Biopark to get my water and green fix! The aquarium is a jewel. While not as large as some of the big name aquariums like the Monteray aquarium, the animals are beautifully showcased. I... more

We loved the aquarium which is part of the Biological Park - that has aquarium, zoo, and botanical gardens. I wrote a review for the aquarium under the "Biological Park" before I knew there was a seperate review section for the aquarium itself. Please see my review under "Biological Park" as I included neat photos of feeding the moray eels... more
