Time Out says
Physical activities and brain teasers lead visitors on a trail from the forest floor to the tree canopy, with flora and fauna of the rainforest - including iguana, iridescent fruit beetles and a giant centipede - on display. The centrepiece is the butterfly house full of tropical butterflies from around the world.

We took our children (8/6/4) to see this last weekend. This cost £17. We were most disappointed. The butterflys are very good and inside a fairly small and humid tent-like structure which is pretty full of people. The other animals and insects are motionless behind glass. The fairly ropey play-area outside [very much an add-on] will amuse a four-year old for about 10 minutes and older children not at all; it's no better than your local park. This exhibition is ok, but hugely over-priced.
