We stopped in on our way to San Ignacio, planned for a walk around to stretch our legs, and go find the place we’re staying however we were so blown away by the hummingbirds, we stayed 3 hours and probably only left because it was closing time. We had some time a couple days later and came back! We’re pretty sure we saw 6-7 different hummingbirds and there were so many of them!

I’m glad we finally did this! Roni was an excellent guide. We learned so many fun facts. There were SO many butterflies and Roni provided a thorough and up-close education on the complete lifecycle of these amazing creatures. Come support this place and have a beautiful time with the butterflies AND hummingbirds!

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! our guide, Raina explained in depth how the ranch works, the various types of butterflies and answered all our questions very knowledgeably and thoroughly. Besides the many butterflies, they also have a hummingbird feeding station that will fascinate with dozens and dozens of the tiny shimmering creatures. Doesn’t look like much from the road, but believe me, it’s worth a visit.

What a beautiful experience! Shanell showed us around the whole operation and it was amazing to see all the butterflies in their different life stages. Not to mention the hummingbirds at the end! Really great place, great staff, lot to see and learn, totally worth the trip.

This experience was so much more than other butterfly exhibits I have visited. Our guide at the Butterfly Ranch, Weslyn, was a passionate educator taking the time to share with us the life cycle of the various species. It’s a beautiful, fun and far more interesting experience than I had imagined. Thank you Weslyn and Stefany!

The most unforgettable trip ever at green hills butterfly ranch. Amazing to see all stages and we were blessed to witness a pupa transform into a beautiful butterfly. Sylvia was amazing, knowledgeable, and passionate about the butterflies. See you next year!!!!

We visit friends that live in Belize and they took us to Green Hills. They close at 4pm and we got there at 3:40. I'm sure they would have preferred us to arrive sooner but you'd never know it by the way we were treated. Our tour guide was "Roni" and he was the best!!! Very unassuming,friendly, knowledgeable and extremely patient, we had lots of questions. I don't know any of the other guides but Roni is the man you want for the tour. Ask for him by name, he's a "ROCK STAR"!!!

Well worth the visit to the butterfly ranch to see the wonderful conservation work they are doing, and to have the experience of having so many beautiful butterflies to observe. Cleydi was quite knowledgeable and took her time showing us around. Highly recommended!

Green Hills Butterfly Ranch was truly spectacular. Roni was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable about the butterflies and answered our 138529 questions. I highly recommend coming to learn about native butterfly and hummingbird species in Belize as well as a chance to walk around and see some wild life. We rented a car and drove. It’s about 25 minutes outside of San Ignacio. It’s a bit hard to get there without a car or a ride because there is no bus route that goes that direction but if you Have the time and are willing to pay a little more for transportation it’s highly worth the visit

This is such a cool place! Shanell gave us a great tour, explaining in the caterpillar house all the stages of raising these beautiful butterflies from eggs to adults. I was amazed to learn that they ship cocoons to butterfly houses all over the US and the UK! I especially liked the chance to just stay in the butterfly portion without being rushed, allowed to admire these delicate creatures. After the butterflies, it's a delight to watch the hummingbirds (we saw 8 kinds!) and walk around the property. We even saw a toucan fly overhead.
