  • Great Value
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/21/09
    We live around the corner from Flamingo Gardens and think this is a local jewel. It is not a zoo. The animals in the sanctuary are there because they have been injured badly enough that they cannot fend for themselves. Don't compare it to Fairchild Gardens, situated in ritzy Coral Gables with a large base of wealthy contributors. Flamingo ...

  • Great walk with nature
    By ruppur, 03/18/09
    I liked the fact that you could go in and walk around without having to take the tram for an additional charge. Great tropical trees and flowers,and many other birds,reptiles, and mammals to see. Friendly tour guides and overall well worth $17.00. Try the Monkey Farm for $29.00 and you'll see how Flamingo Gardens is not a rip-off.

  • Paradise Found
    By hawkwoman2008, 09/07/08
    There are a lot of people who don’t even know about Flamingo Gardens and it is a real shame. This quaint Botanical Gardens and Wildlife Sanctuary lies right here in the town of Davie. One of the best kept secrets around, this tropical paradise is home to many species of animals and plants. It was once home to pioneers’ Floyd L. Wray ...

  • Keeping South Florida's History Alive
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/02/08
    I loved how the owners kept everything simple, clean, and rustic. It felt like I was back in the 80's, before all the major modernization was done to our fine state. Flamingo Gardens really captures everything that a wildlife sanctuary should have.
    As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by enthusiastic volunteers, who obviously knew their way ...

  • Beautiful Natives
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/19/07
    Flamingo Gardens is not a formal garden so don't expect that. It's a beautiful glimpse into how our area use to look (wish it still did) and gives local children an opportunity to see our vanishing wildlife up close. This is not for the uppity crowd expecting to see topiary trees shaped into objects of art, rather for the family and those ...

  • Terrible visit
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/13/07
    The gardens mislead with your ad and brochures. Had a terrible visit would not recommend to anyone. The gardens shares a terrible view and the animals look sad. I am from NY so the zoos up there are much better.

  • Waste of money
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/13/07
    Yeah I went to the Flamingo gardens too. Talk about a waste of money - Parret Jungle 10 times better. I walked inside and didn't even think it would look so bad. It was awful - worst garden ever! I do not recommend it to anyone at all.
