What are people saying about Butterfly Conservatory

Unassuming gem in Castillo
The butterfly conservatory was a great opportunity to learn about butterflies and more, native to Costa Rica. While some of the facilities have started to show their age, the staff were knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife.

Butterflies, frogs, and monkeys, oh my!
What a cool little place in El Castillo!I had no idea there were that many species of butterflies! We learned a lot and saw even more! We even saw howler monkeys playing in the trees on the included river walk! Very cool place!

Your experience begins...
Your experience begins with your ride to the Conservatory. Outstanding drive and views. Once there, it is simply magnificent. Well maintained, with outstanding plants and animals as well as the incredible butterflies.
