What visitors say
Really nice Rainforest exhibit. my only complaint was the smell from the Squirrel monkeys, but if you know anything about them then you know why they smell. Other than that this was really cool.
I went to have a document notarized, they made me wait for more than an hour until the notary was almost free. At first they told me that if they could notarize it at the last minute, they wanted me to open an account, I didn't want to…
It really feels like a real rainforest nice staff 5 stars from me!
