Thanks for the list and to be honest I was expecting more species to be on display. I would estimate that it wouldn't take very long to tour this facility.

Did you feel that it was worth the entry price?

It's literally on the roof of a building. It's basically the equivalent of a small 'tropical house' in a Northern hemisphere zoo, from what I understand.

I wrote a review of it once. If you didn't really stop to look at anything you could do a circuit in five minutes. But that would be stupid of course.

I got in cheaper because there was a deal on bookme (although that was only for a day ticket, with the normal entry fee you can go back for the next four(?) days).

It was alright but a bit expensive for what it is.
