    Hidden gem in Miami
    Amazing experience and very qualified and honest staff! We booked the Lemur experience which is something out of this world, truly recommended for anyone wanting to connect with animals and nature and the guide was so knowledgeable it makes u want to listen to his stories for hours! Also worth to praise the honesty of the staff, we were refunded for a ticket of one of our party that didn’t show up last minute. Hidden gem, will definitely go back!

    Great Teen experience
    Ordered online, smooth entry. Plenty exhibits of different species of birds, monkeys and other animals. Great granddaughter loved the giant tortoise experience but an added experience was given by Lauren to treat her. As her special interest is in reptiles, she did not get picked in the jungle show featuring different species of snakes but Lauren her tortoise guide allowed her to hold a corn snake. So this special attention made her visit to Miami one of her high points of her vacation. Kudos to Lauren—made a teen very happy and a true smile appeared!

    A bit of a disappointment
    On one hand, the (mostly young) people taking care of the animals seem genuinely interested in their jobs, patiently answering questions and conveying information. The presentation of snakes was really good. There were also some color varieties of birds at least I have never seen before. On the other hand, more than a few of the animals seem unhappy and many are confined to very small cages. Not that much to see, to be frank, and extremely overpriced (higher than Miami Zoo, which is much bigger). In addition to the hefty admission they charge USD 15 for parking and USD 85 for individual animal encounters. I would really like to be able to refrain from writing a bad review. Perhaps they should lower prices, review the animals’ wellbeing and maybe expand the park a bit? Then it would be worth a visit. Now it is not.

    Very BEST Lemur Encounter in 15 years!
    This was my 4th Lemur Encounter - not a typo - 3 pre-covid ‘09, ‘10, ‘13. Blown away by the improvement!!! Our guide/trainer, Selvin, was beyond remarkable, a gem! He had complete command, encouraging of us and the Lemurs, displayed a depth of knowledge that was truly impressive, had immeasurable patience, and showed great caring for their well being. The Lemurs were precious, engaged with us, and attentive to him. No comparison to prior years! SO MUCH FUN! GO! The “new” park is also beautiful. The flamingo experience was fun and mesmerizing and there are new encounters to try…along with the Lemur Encounter of course!

    The Lemurs are so much fun!!
    This is a great zoo. Very festive and friendly. Everyone was very welcoming, the place was very clean and the animals were well cared for. They do a night show that looks wonderful. We were there during the day, but you could see the displays. We went on the lemur experience. I've been on numerous animal experiences. This was the best. We must have taken 50 pictures. They were friendly and Ryan handled the tour incredibly well. He genuinely cares for them. I will be going back soon. We might do the VIP experience next.

    Jungle Island needs some work to make it a worthwhile experience
    We were really looking forward to going to Jungle Island as well as seeing the Parrots since it had been many years since we’d been there. The Capybara experience was also a draw for us. We were quite disappointed. There isn’t much to see or keep you there for any length of time. There is nothing in any of the bird cages to keep them occupied. No toys, nothing for them to do. The Capybaras were pretty cool and it was neat to pet them and feed them but no great shakes. All in all they need to put a bit more money into the place to make it worthwhile for the birds and animals as well as patrons to visit.

    The lemur experience was excellent
    Fantastic time we had with the lemurs. Ryan was an amazing guide who provided enough information without overworking us with facts. The lemurs are the sweetest and were so happy!!!! It’s pricey (so is everything in the Miami area) but well worth it for such a rare experience as being with the animals.

    The best encounter we have ever been on
    I am 70 and my son is 42. We both had so much fun. we took an encounter with the lemurs and they are wonder, soft, and friendly. The guide was so personable and informative. The photographer was great and the pictures turned out wonderful. They were so worth the $50 we spent on the photos

    Animal Encounters are amazing!
    I have been going to Jungle Island for many years and have always enjoyed it. It isn't a huge place, but the Animal Encounters are excellent! They have added a tree top ropes course which I didn't do but looked like everyone was having a great time. The staff for the Animal Encounters is excellent.
    Hi there, Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We are so happy that you enjoyed adventuring with us! We hope to welcoming you back to Jungle Island real soon. Warmest Regards, The Jungle Island Team
