Guided Butterfly Conservatory Tour in Costa Rica
On our famous Guide-Assisted Tour you will experience being surrounded by butterflies while going through our four large Butterfly Exhibition Habitats, including a Live Demonstration of the Butterfly Life-Cycle and the Amazing Metamorphosis, but you see so much more on this tour.
The Conservatory is a Forest Creation Project demonstrating natural rainforest regeneration in the Arenal area of Costa Rica, and now many Tropical Species of Animals and Birds are finding habitat in our sanctuary. In the Habitat for Exotic Frogs and Turtles, you will see some of the Poison Dart frogs and other species of amphibians from the Arenal rainforest.
You choose the trails through the forest, with your Map of the Project and Encounter your Awareness of Nature walking through the Botanical Gardens and Medicinal Herb gardens.
In the Reception Center is a large collection of unusual Tropical Insects in our Insect Museum, and a souvenir shop with Jewelry and framed art made with butterfly wings.
