Edinburgh Butterfly and Insect World

Soak up the heat in an indoor rainforest with exotic butterflies flying free in jungle flora. Have close encounters of the crawly kind and see huge tarantulas, a leaf cutter ant parade, poisonous arrow frogs and jumping grasshoppers. Face your fears in the Reptile Room and meet giant pythons, other snakes and lizards, then see a variety of bugs and beasties, like glow-in-the-dark scorpions, going about their night time activities in the Nocturnal Zone.

 

Visitors can also enjoy working honey bee hives and meet ‘Rainbow’ the Yemen Chameleon. In addition, visitors can also experience the butterfly release at 10am, fish feeding at 11am and 2pm, animal handing sessions at 12pm and 3pm, animal feeding at 4pm and a tropical rainstorm at 5pm each day.
