It's expensive and small - really not worth going to. More

We visited with 2 young kids (aged 4 years) and although the kids were interested in the bugs for about 10 minutes the guide there on that day did nothing to engage them and was talking at an adult level the whole time. There was only one guide and 3 groups in attendance: a mother and a small child, us... More

Very informative tours of the bugs here by lively staff. Our grandchildren have been great fans. More

This is a great attraction for locals or tourists. The staff are very personable. The bugs are so interesting. If it is not too busy the attendants will often let you hold some of the more docile critters. The kids with me last time were in stitches when the fellow offered to let me have a centipede moustache. I did... More

It's smaller than you would expect and you would have to be okay with insects but we really enjoyed it. It was educational and fun. Not many places where you can see, let alone hold all of these unusual fascinating bugs. Guides were excellent. Our son LOVED it and even our 15 year old daughter thought it was pretty cool. More

Excellent, with two very knowledgeable guides. It's small but has fascinating bugs: stick bugs up to 6" (15 cm) long, big beetles, millipedes, preying mantises, tarantulas, etc- all of which the guides take out and introduce to you : alive ! Our 5 year old loved it, and could have stayed more than the hour or so we spent there More

I've brought my daughters to the bug zoo since they were young and we've always enjoyed this great little zoo. Employees are knowledgable and fun and encourage HANDS-ON of many of the creatures in their zoo - fabulous little gem of a zoo!! More

This is the best thing we've done with our kids in terms of indoor attractions in Victoria, and we've done a number. I'm a bit of a bug-phobe myself, but I still found the bug zoo to be absolutely fascinating. We recommend it to all our friends with kids! More

This is a fantastic attraction hidden right in the centre of Victoria. We visited with a 2yr old and a 4yr old who is afraid of spiders and creepy crawlies. Although the museum itself is small, it is packed with things to see. There were two guides who were both fascinating and were getting some exhibits out to touch/hold. The... More
