I was shocked by how much I learned and was thrilled at a chnce to touch all these interesting creepy-crawlies. I learned more about ants than ever before and I'm 60 years old. I wasn't sure what to expect but I would recommend this to anyone who isn't phobic about bugs.

My husband and I didn't know what to expect or if the Bug Zoo was ok to go to without kids but it is great and kids are not required! We LOVED it! We had fun and learned about all kinds of strange and interesting creatures. (We were glad to have left the kids at home so that we could enjoy the tour at our own pace.) The Zoo is really well ...

I loved the "Bug Zoo, it was quite the experience , I mean how often do you get the chance to hold a tarantula or a scorpion. How exciting.

After doing several of the other standard things in the Victoria area and having most of them come up a bit short, we worried about this just being another tourist trappy type of place with little value.

As it turns out it was our best experience in Victoria on our two day stay.

While the exhibit is in a fairly small area bugs are small, too ...

We were very disappointed with the Victoria Bug Zoo. While the exhibits and tour guides were MOST interesting, we were highly disappointed to see that it took place in only two rooms, and the heat was extreme. Poor ventilation, no air conditioner - on a cool day outside, the rooms were stifling. We have four children 10 and under. They had to leave ...

My daughter loved the Bug Zoo. It is a small place, great bugs and information, the only thing we thought was that for $10 a person you should get a little more for your money.

I loved the bug Zoo. The guides were very knowledgeable and personable. I got to hold all sorts of bugs. I didn't expect the zoo to be so small (only two rooms)however,this does not mean that they don't have lots of bugs. It was also very warm inside, I quess to keep the bugs happy. I think this is a great place to take kids and visitors to victoria. I highly recommend it, and I look forward to my next visit.

My kids thought this was the coolest place. Not only do they learn about all kinds of bugs and their habits, but they get to hold some in their hands AND buy suckers in the gift store that have bugs in them. What a great way to gross out their friends! Everytime we went into Victoria, or had friends visiting with kids, we had to visit the bug zoo.

Me, my husband and my 2 boys loved this place.
It was disappointing at first to find it all happens in just 2 rooms but there are 2 guides showing you around most of the inhabitants of the cages/ glass aquariums who are very enthusiastic & knowledgeable.
I managed to hold a scorpion praying mantis, millipede and a tarantula. The guides even let ...
