El lugar es de fácil ubicación, los guías son muy amables y carismáticos, están muy bien informados de cada una de las especies que tienen en la reserva. Encuentras al inicio y a mitad del recorrido puntos de hidratación y/o snack a buenos precios. Puedes interactuar con algunos animales ya sea alimentandolos o en contacto directo. Al final puedes tomarte una fotografía con una boa super grande y hermosa por un costo adicional. Recomendación: aplicarte bloqueador y llevar gorra . Es una experiencia muy divertida.

(Translated by Google) A place that with its history of how "Vivarium" came to be, you can see the great effort made by its founder and the purpose of the park. It not only awakens the wild, it also awakens knowledge, adventure, adrenaline. Keep growing and sharing the knowledge about your species.

Good for kids, very good guide. The guided walk takes about an hour, our and a half. The kids can feed crocodiles and turtles (for a small extra fee). Entrance was 25,000 pesos per adult and 20,000 per kid. You can see this place has been hit hard by the lack of tourists during the pandemic, so it is a bit run down but they are trying to come back and very friendly. Recommend going if you have your kids and need a break from the beach/pool that is about 30 minutes from the old city.

Actualmente el lugar esta muy descuidado, hay una zona de tortugas donde se supone que hay un sendero de madera donde claramente es para pasar sobre el y esta en mal estado, el guia del lugar advirtió que no se podia pasar por ahi y daño la experiencia. En lo personal es costo de la entrada no es tan costoso, pero me parece una exageración cobran $20.000 pesos solo por fotos con la serpiente considero que eso deberia ser gratis. Por otra parte la tematica de sobre la evolución es muy buena pero cuando fui habian estanques vacios y en lo personal considero que no es un lugar adecuado para tener los animales como serpiertes que miden mas de dos metros en un estanque, con aproximadamente 1.5 metros de largo es una especulación puede medir más o menos. -------------------------------------- The place is currently very neglected, there is a turtle area where there is supposed to be a wooden walkway where it is clearly meant to be walked on and it is in bad condition. The tour guide warned that it couldn't be walked on and it ruined the experience. In my opinion, the cost of admission isn't that expensive, but I think it's excessive to charge $10USD just for pictures with the snake. I think that should be free. On the other hand, the theme of evolution is very good, but when I went there were empty ponds and I personally think it's not a suitable place to keep animals like snakes that are more than two meters long in a pond that is only 1.5 meters long. It's just a speculation, it could be longer or shorter.

Brilliant slice of jungle and wildlife

Easily done in 30mins max. My little one really enjoyed it so came back more than once. Entrance fee seemed to be made up on the spot, ranging between 60-77 Mil pesos, cash only. It is located out the way, so phone signal is not good. Recommend having your taxi wait while you walk around. Or if your Spanish is good enough, the staff can call a cab for you. Cab fares vary widely.

This is a very small 'zoo' with fish and reptiles. Some of it is a little dilapidated and perhaps not the best conditions, however I'm happy to give it 5-stars for my guides effort. Miguel spoke no English and I speak no Spanish, but I had a great tour with conversation via Google translate. I ended up paying 35k pesos for entry. My driver had said it was 25k, but I lacked change as did they. Still it was good value for the effort Miguel put in, and I gave him a tip for that too. It's quite far out of Cartagena, so probably best to incorporate in a trip to see other things too. However, as I was the only visitor, my driver was given a tour (free of charge) at the same time.

Great experience and a nice way to learn about colombian reptiles and fish. The guide told us a lot about crocodiles, kaymans, turtles and fish. It was in spannish, but he talked slowly so that we could understand him. We only had a bit of struggle explaining the taxi drivers the destination, seemed like they don't know the place.

Just beautiful and awesome, it is the perfect place for iguana lovers...

Just an amazing place to learn about reptiles and dinosaurs. We had a personalized to and learned so much. The kids didn't stop talking about the experience after we left. Will return to see Pepe again.

Was a pretty good experience with my family, there are some reptiles and also you can feed them. You can grab a snake and put it in your shoulders and neck, yo have to pay $20.000 but it’s a great experience. The entrance cost $35.000, I recommend to go in weekdays.

Incredible sanctuary only 20 minutes from cartagena. If you are here go give them some love.

A fun wildlife experience with a warm atmosphere.

Me parece interesante tener donde llevar a los animales de fauna silvestre rescatados, tortuga carranchina en su nuevo hogar
