charles O. ★★★★★ : Entered Benin and decided to surprise the kids. There were impressed. Big well-fed Lion and lioness and others animals not bad at all compared to like six years back. Gaming activities too for the kids. Cool.
Johnson O. ★★★★★ : It is spacious and cool, a good place to unwind, hangout and make friends. But It lacks proper management, it needs more investment in wildlife and manpower, and the animals are not well taken care of.

Iyenrowo E. ★★★★★ : It's not a place to relax. Google search for public outdoor experience can mislead you to this place. It's just a flower farm with small space available to rent for very small gathering. If you're going hoping to have a public outdoor experience don't! It was shown to me when I searched Google for cheap public outdoor visit. When I arrive with a girl they asked me embarrassing questions like I came there to fornicate. Only go there if you want to buy flowers or want to rent a space for occasion between 10 to say 80 persons. Note there is no place to park more than 4 cars.
TalkTalkGeneral T. ★★★★★ : Colourful grades with beautiful flowers. It is a site to behold when driving through ugbowo road, Benin City
