This excursion was something 3 people in my party participated in. It was NOT wheelchair friendly at all and we had to take a taxi which ended up costing more... read more than the actual exhibit because it was far away from our hotel on the Malacon and the taxi driver had to wait for us an hour to give us a ride back or we would have been stuck out in the middle of the jungle. It was fun and thankfully I had a few big guys who made this experience possible for me in a manual wheelchair but I would not recommend it for anyone with mobility issues. The tour guide was awesome and the releasing of the butterflies at the end was really cool. Then I had to pee and that was a whole new problem trying to get to the bathrooms that were far away and not accessible at all. I should have done a lot more research on the accessibility but I just wanted to experience the pretty butterflies!

I would highly recommend visiting.

My husband and I visited the butterfly sanctuary, and it was GREAT!!! Fabian was an absolutely amazing tour guide. His knowledge level of these beautiful insects was incredible. Request him... read more specifically if you can. He even shared some knowledge of his home country of Peru with us. This tour is wonderful if you have a chance to do it while in PV!

Very interesting visit to observe local butterflies on local, natural vegetation. Knowledgeable guides describing environment!

The sanctuary was a wonderful experience. Close up observation of many unique species and the guide was worth it. He explained life cycle and local species as well... read more as pointing out where to spot the camouflaged ones hiding amongst the foliage. Holding and releasing the newly hatched butterflies was a profound experience too. This sanctuary deserves our support 💜
