Butterfly Wonderland 9500 East Vía de Ventura, Scottsdale, AZ 85256

"We went here on a whim towards the end of the week, and WOW what a cool place! Our group was enthralled with all of the butterflies, bees, and fish. We could have stayed here for hours! Definitely wear bright colors or something floral and you will have butterflies land on you. When we went it wasn't too crowded, so it seems like the best time to go would be the middle of the day if you can swing it. Dress appropriately because it was quite hot and humid in the greenhouse. We were impressed as the employees were all very knowledgeable and we truly learned so much about the life cycle of a butterfly and how they fit into our ecosystem. Very educational and fun for all ages. There were also two really great small exhibits you could enter for free that were run by the neighboring aquarium with fish, a shark, reptiles, frogs, snakes, and more! SO cool!"

"This was absolutely amazing! It's worth the money, especially if it's a slow day and there are less people. Butterflies will land on you, and there are some amazing photo opportunities. BE AWARE WHERE YOU WALK!!! We saw a couple people step on butterflies that landed on the ground. I had a wonderful time. I use a cane and it was easy for me to maneuver around where I needed to go. It was really hot and humid in the conservatory, but that wasn't a bother when you walk around and find the AC. I will definitely be going back if I can! The reptiles and fish were really cool to see as well."

"We chose to go early on a Sunday. Still pretty packed. I highly suggest buying your tickets online to save time. We did not watch the video that they show before you go into the exhibit. It was a beautiful experience and to be able to have the butterflies land on you was perfect! It is very humid in there so bring water. There is a reptile exhibit and a small aquarium as well! We did try the cafe inside and the pretzel and slushy was so good and refreshing!"

"Definitely a great experience Everytime, this one is one of the best butterfly experiences we been to, lots of butterflies flying around and it's surreal. I always thought that butterflies fly aimlessly and just basically flying without any meaningful control...but seeing them fly here changed that, they do have control and they fly in formations etc. I really enjoy this exhibit a lot! I will go back soon!"

"Loved our visit. Wonderful place. Really enjoyed it. Great, helpful staff. The place was truly beautiful. Had a few butterfly land on us. Got to see them catch some newly emerged ones to release. There was one group that wasn't paying attention and stepped on a butterfly. That made my little one sad, but hope next time they give people more fyi on things before letting them enter."
