This is a very unique experience. My wife and I had a fabulous chat with Krys, the director, before our guided tour. The tour isn’t long (30 minutes or so)... read more but very informative. You will learn about the diversity and importance of butterflies to the world we live in. Please take this tour. I know you’ll learn many new things you didn’t know about these beautiful little friends. Also, be sure to release a new butterfly. It is wonderful experience that will stay with forever.

Krys was very knowledgeable and passionate about the facility and tour which made it very enjoyable for us and our 9 month old son. The sanctuary is a fascinating... read more place and would love to come back and do the cocoa tour with him. Krys was also generous, making sure we stayed hydrated and offered us snacks as well as hired a driver for us because I had limited cell service to call an Uber myself. Thank you for a great time!!!
