    Staff Friendliness ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Prices ⭐️ I asked for FL residence discount, the girl said there weren’t any . I asked about an adult paying full price and child free , she said show me coupon. I said I’ll look for it . She’s like ok forget I can get it for you . 40$ extra to take picture with lemur 🤦🏼‍♀️ but they won’t let children take the picture or pet them without an adult; but the adult has to pay another 40$ 😂😂 that’s ridiculous !!! A lot of “pardon out dust” signs . So much under going construction it’s hard and very confusing to get around

    Very nice place to come and see a lot of different species of animals, totally recommend the aviary theater show. Very interesting and fun. Going on a Monday was awesome because there was no people almost which it was great!

    This was the first time I was able to attend the beautiful light show at jungle Island and I who would have to say it was absolutely amazing. Is the minute you could definitely do need either a significant other, a date night, or even meet with your family members. I highly recommend it but it was definitely worth every penny.

    It's a small garden on the other side of children's zoo. If your going to it, you may park on the garage on the side closest to the exit, you have to walk around through the garage. If you park in the garage its $10. You may can park across the street in the lot where people unload their boats. There is a restroom outside in the lot as well.

    A great experience! Had a blast in the family friendly atmosphere. Went for the luminosa event and the lights were stunning and well crafted! Would like to see more of the pathways with stable ground (stroller accessibility) but overall it was a great time! Would look forward to it again maybe next year.

    Jungle Island. I believe this place is now called Jungle Island and not Miami Friends... This is a really nice and small animal habitat. Maybe it is actually called a zoo. Very small and walkable for a couple hours. A great place to take small children. The highlight was visiting with the lemurs. You can book different "experiences" with different types of animals depending upon your preference. There is of course, an additional charge for this but I felt as though ours was extremely worth it!

    You can see everything in less than 20 minutes. The acrobat show at parrot island was terrible. No food was offered. A the animals are put away Except a few birds so you cant e not the zoo experience

    Beautiful lights, we had a fun night! It's definitely worth spending a couple of hours there.

    Very small area. You can get through it in 5 minutes. It could use a little TLC with added flora and fauna. It's free to walk through. No personnel in attendance, no restrooms. I didn't pay attention if it was wheelchair and stroller friendly but I believe it is. There is no parking dedicated to the gardens but there is parking available. Parking is a flat fee of $15; either in the parking garage next door or the lot across the street at the boat launch. Just a 1 to 5 minute walk to the gardens.

    The horrorland 2023 at Parrot jungle was not that scary at all. It was a nice night out with the wife she was a bit jumpy from the haunted houses. Food was whack especially the prices for what they served. Probably better if they hired food trucks I also went on a week day to avoid the heavy lines and crowded park just for thought.

    Do not waste your money or time, the attractions are not worth it.

    Luminosa was beautiful! They held my carseat (we took uber) and we easily rented a stroller. Finding a drop off and pick up point with uber/lyft was a little challenging.
