Nov 19: Jungle Island featured on Concierge.com

Jungle Island (formerly known as Parrot Jungle) was the main feature of the “what to see and do” “insider pick” in a recent CondeNast’s concierge.com newsletter on their Destination of The Week: Miami. Citing the Art Basel event being held soon in Miami Beach, the newsletter covers where to stay, eat, what to do, etc., along with “why go” plus “what to skip” items. Interesting to note that under the “what to skip” column, they recommend avoiding “chaotic” Miami airport as “savvy travelers fly into Fort Lauderdale”.

They describe Jungle Island in its former location as “an oddball charmer…an old rambling park full of squawking, bird-filled cage” but now it has been transformed into a “gleaming, multimillion-dollar family attraction on its own island”. The feature goes on to highlight some of their exotic animals, the custom designed environments including the aviary, the Peruvian Manu exhibit, and the neighboring Japanese garden.
