What Our Customers Say
Excellent botanical garden with a wide variety of plants and a very walkable layout. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable. The butterfly garden for international species was very well done. There is a guided tram tour you can take that will show you the highlights. Overall it's an excellent place to spend the day enjoying nature, highly recommended.

Many tourists miss out on some of the most beautiful areas of Miami. Fairchild Tropical gardens is one of those absolutely beautiful gems Miami has. Driving to it you will go thru a canopy of Hugh Banyan trees which is an introduction to what you are about to experience. Once inside you will see some of the most beautiful plants you have ever seen all set in a serene peaceful setting! Don't miss the butterfly conservatory which is amazing. (SECRET TIP) once you finish head to the Wayside Market for a delicious strawberry shake about a 5 minute drive! Enjoy!!

It is such an interesting place. It's full of wildlife and plants. I enjoyed the butterfly room. They have these beautiful blue butterflies that come and fly near you. I would recommend walking through their simulated rainforest as well. The whole place is an amazing experience.

Fabulous Park and gardens. We spent a lovely Saturday morning meandering through the gardens seeing incredible, mature specimens of rare and unusual flora. The rainforest garden is absolutely magical. The buildings are gorgeous. I highly recommend. This is a great way to spend the day and take a walk.

Worth the stop! So incredibly beautiful, don’t forget your bug spray, you will get devoured! The gift shop is also beautiful. The paths are wide, there’s plenty of roads to go off on to explore. If you’re a plant lover, it’s a must! There’s a beautiful butterfly exhibitions where they release new ones every week (I believe it was 40 new butterfly a week).
Sabrina Brooks
Wow so beautiful here they have all tropical plants and trees here I even seen a jack fruit full of fruits! The butterflies are so cute they have cafes and drinks snacks too and if your military it’s free so get there early so you can ride the train before it fills up!!! This park is so big we have to come back to finish going through it all. It takes 2.5 hrs by foot or 45 mins on ride around carts.

Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden is an absolute gem in Miami. The gardens are beautifully maintained, with a stunning variety of tropical plants, butterflies, and rare palms. Every path feels like a peaceful escape into nature. The layout is easy to navigate, and there’s something different around every corner—shady trails, open meadows, orchid collections, even art installations.
Perfect for solo visits, dates, or family outings. Don’t miss the lakeside views or the lush rainforest section.
