“Nice option for kids in Miami”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013 via mobile

We have visited Jungle Island several times, and my kids enjoy the place. However I find a bit simple and not many things to do, so you end up visiting the place relatively quickly. It is expensive for the value you get, and the staff is not very friendly especially the photo people who have no patience with kids.

“Was much more than I expected”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013

The first thing I would say is that the animals are in fantastic condition ( some a little pudgy), the enclosures where clean and in great repair and the park was beautiful. There is something for everyone, the foliage is very well kept with lots of diversity. There were 4 of us and each of us enjoyed our day so much that we found ourselves still discussing the animals and the park at dinner that night. It is a bit pricey but a very enjoyable day. The only critism I would have is they need a better restaurant on premises.

“Beautiful birds”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

Really enjoyed feeding the many parrots. The shows had a great variety of animals. Petting the lemur was a fun plus. Liked the smaller size since we could get around to everything (at least twice) . Beautiful large cats, liger and white lion!
