A piece of paradise - This place was recommended by some locals whom we met in Vancouver Canada, and it does not disappoint. We caught the number 75 bus from the hotel and it’s great.

Three generations out to see butterflies - I was surprised to see more than just butterflies. A flamingo, turtles, and other surprises. It is a small venue, but worth it. The kids wanted to go around again and they never want to do that. Affordable price too.

Fun Garden for All Ages! - Went this last weekend with my partner and some friends. We were in town for just a day from Washington state. The butterfly garden was beautiful, and we loved looking at all the insects as well. Beautifully maintained! Heads up, they keep the garden itself warm for the butterflies so don't go inside with a jacket on! You'll be sweating!

Butterflies Everywhere – So Coolio - Such a chill and beautiful spot! The Victoria Butterfly Gardens totally surprised me — it’s warm, tropical, and full of butterflies flying all around you. There are also cool little animals like turtles, frogs, birds, and even a flamingo just vibing. We made friends with one of the birds, Super relaxing to walk through, and there’s tons to see. Great for a date, family day, or just escaping the weather for a bit. It’s like a mini rainforest in there. Loved it!

Fun! - Several animal species in addition to the butterflies and the butterflies were well displayed, roaming free and part of an educational window as well. Lots of good photo opportunities.

Place was packed and no staff in sight - The building is nice and their setup seems good, but the place was PACKED with people of all ages making it hard to see anything or enjoy the visit because you had to try hard not to bump into people. Additionally, there were turtles walking around the path with people and no staff were there to make sure the turtles were safe (not stepped on accidentally or being harassed). Would have enjoyed it much more if there were about half the people there. Maybe they could find a better way to limit the number of people in the garden at one time.
