We loved the sanctuary! It’s a wide open concept which is great so is never crowded. Tons of parrots! Animals are well kept, volunteers are kind. Lots of rescued birds and they love the attention of the public. You can feed the goats, ducks… My daughter had a blast! Well priced

We like this place. It isn't in the best condition, very small and very limited amount of animals/birds to look at depending on when you go but I think they mainly run on volunteerism so this is understandable. We still enjoy bringing our toddler here for an outing as it is not far from our house. The rear end of their sanctuary is currently under construction so in this last trip we didnt get to see their full range of animals. Also we noticed their trees and plants beside these beautiful cacti are in desperate need of water though. The cacti were actually the highlight of this particular visit as they were blooming (we've been here at least 3 to 5 times over the last few years so I didnt take any pictures of the actual animals but they have goats, exotic birds, peacocks including albino, chickens, turkey, ostrich emu, pigs etc..and normally when not under construction i believe donkey and llama or alpaca). We haven't gotten to see any cacti bloom in person anywhere until now. Overall, I do recommend this place for a nice outing with family or young kids. The workers are friendly (mainly keep to themselves though while working on many projects) and definitely trying to make it a positive experience and patronizing the place is probably the only way to bring further improvements and more animals. Overall, it is a positive experience, and we will return I am sure

While small, the animals you see are amazing and friendly ( in their enclosures). Ticket prices were reasonable. Only downside was the rough concrete ang large slopes for wheelchairs.

Great experience for the Family, the kids loved it (9 and 3 year old) very welcoming person in the entrance, the prices are very cheap and they have a nice verity off animals. You can feed them as well with a dollar per cup. 4 stars is because I would recommend to have the place more clean or at least more alive, even if it says to raise up the prices. Once it’s more cleaned they place can for be published in much more places. Good luck
