Hi Ladies,
Hoping someone is familiar w/ Monkey Jungle and can give me an opinion? My grandmother lived in Miami when I was little and I vaguely recall visiting this place and enjoying it. We are going to be in Marco Island this summer for a week and I'm wondering whether its worth making a 2+ hour drive to see this w/ 3.5 yo LO.
Thanks in advance!
Re: visiting from Balto Board - Q about "Monkey Jungle"
Personally, I've never liked Monkey Jungle. I think it's outdated-ish. Not to mention smelly and there are TONS of flies.
If you're going to make the drive, I'd go to Zoo Miami or Jungle Island. The price difference is more than double, with Jungle Island being more expensive. I personally LOVE the Zoo now. They have 4 different splash pads for the kids and they are opening a huge new water playground some time in the Spring. They also have a giraffe feeding station and a rhino feeding station. It's only $16 per adult vs. the $36 at Jungle Island. We spent about 4 hours there on Saturday with out 18 month old and he LOVED it.

FYI Jungle Island is the "new" Parrot Jungle. They updated and moved it to the beach and added a bunch of new things.
Here are the links for the Zoo and Jungle Island.
