The price is way to much to see a lot of parrots. You pay 30.00 a person plus 7.00 for parking. your better off going to the Miami Metro Zoo for 18.00 and free parking.
I loved the one on one encounters with each animal.Every animal were clean and well groomed.The staff were nice and attentive.Its a nice place to take your kids and have a nice time yourself.I cant forget about these who orangutans Peanut and Pumpkin.They were adorable and funny...Oh yeah I fed young Kangeroos.They even had Penguins , how cool is that!!!!
It was a great place to go and they CARE about the animals and most of the proceeds go towards protecting the m! Its much better than the zoo or aquarium. You see the animals just like you would in the wild plus there are many hands on activities and photo ops with the animals!
I am a local... so when I get bored I like to do touristy things that I dont normally do... so one day I took the opportunity to visit the "new and improved" Parrot Jungle Island... I thought the vanue was great!! It was beautiful and I enjoyed the shows too... great place to take young children or adults who think they are children... ...
i found to many negative reviews that i don`t think i will go there in a couple of weeks when i will be visiting miami with my family, specialy if it is overprice like everybody says, i`ll pass this atraction.
Visited Parrot Jungle Island when my grandchildren came to visit from Colorado. Nothing like it used to be when it was located on Red Road. Back then it was lush, green and welcoming. You used to be able to sit down and enjoy breakfast, shade and breezy ventilation. NO MORE! It has now become a tourist trap. Costly admission, costly parking, costly ...
Although the internet site does note, "Severe inclement weather may affect Jungle Island’s hours.", the sign at the ticket window does not, nor does the sales rep warn you what constitutes severe weather in their mind. We are from Phoenix, AZ (the no rain state) and I hate rain. Yes, hate is a strong word, but true. That being ...

Why bother
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/28/08
For one, it's way too expensive. Like $30 per ticket plus $7 for parking. Second, there isn't a whole lot going on. The enclosures for the crocodile and tigers look too small, the beach is small and no swimming is allowed, and there are almost no water fountains in the park, forcing you to buy water in the vending machines which is another $3. I will say the bird and reptile shows are nice, but the tiger show is very disappointing.
