Little Ray's Nature Centre

Jasmin was so knowledgeable and very clearly dedicated to the animals! You can really tell the staff there have such big hearts and want the best for each animal. Loved being there so much. Can't wait to go back! The private tour made a great date activity.

What a great experience with my son! The staff are super amazing, and the animals are a treat to look at and watch. The souvenirs are so cute to!! Very happy they were able to open up a general admission day! It's been a long time, but worth the wait.

Not impressed at all. We had booked for my child's birthday weeks in advance, had the confirmation email/time at set up. The lady (no fault of hers as she was going by the schedule given by Little Rays I'm sure) showed up nearly an hour late! When you have your entire party planned around this event with no plan b (because why would/should we need one), a bunch of overly excited toddlers waiting for what they were promised with NO SHOW for almost an hour, no one answering their phone to get answers, disappointed barely covers the emotions felt....This is BEYOND unacceptable and unprofessional. We paid alot of money for this to happen for my daughter....and not only were they late...it lasted HALF the time of what we paid.Honestly, I'm glad that my daughter is so young, but as far as a parental standpoint-- this ruined the experience/planning done for this day.

Visited the sanctuary a while ago but forgot to leave a review. I purchased the combo tour for myself and my two sons and our guide Ella was amazing! Very knowledgeable and very patient with us - especially when we got to hold Mandy (sloths are my favorite animal!). I highly encourage people to read the website and book tours rather than just drop in, as we initially wanted to drop in but ended up booking a tour. However the tour was well worth the price and wait for our time slot!

Great new facility with lots to see. You have to book your tour privately now, but our hostess Charlotte did a tremendous job of personally walking through and showing us all the animals. Well worth the price of admission.

Wonderful private tour with the sloth encounter at Little Rays. Dress for a warm climate. The staff give fantastic information and kids love it. Great way to spend an afternoon.

Don't bother.Run by teenagers. Made it a big deal that we didn't pre order tickets. Had to wonder around without a guide, my son got to watch as other groups with guides were able to touch a few animals and got a much better experience.Told no guides were available, but there were 2 employees at the front desk when we arrive.The older location was bigger and more interactive.Its a shame, I even donated to little rays when they were worried about bankruptcy during covid closures.Cost 40 bucks and we were done in less than 30min. Took longer to drive there (in sarsfield now)Won't be returning.

Wonderful place to visit and to learn from. Little Ray’s not only has many animals, but many from cruelty cases or some those who didn’t realize how much care went into the animal they had purchased. There is a wide range of animals to see, from turtles to iguanas, bats to macaws.The private tour is right up my alley. One on one time with a staff member, learning about the care (and sometimes history) of the animals. My group had Alex as our guide, and he was wonderful. He took the time to talk about each animal, answered all questions we had, and entertained my kids info-dumping on him when he reached their favourite animals. He was very engaging and appeared to enjoy providing the tour. He started the tour by asking if anyone in my group has snake or spider phobias so that he could adapt the tour as needed.The new facility is excellent. It is well laid out, large aisles (so to speak) so social distancing can be maintained. It is wheelchair accessible, but there are one or two areas that might be difficult to reach if the wheelchair is larger than average. I did not notice if there are wheelchair accessible washrooms, however.I definitely recommend checking Little Ray’s out. It is a great way to spend an afternoon, and a great way to help this learning centre keep operating.

An absolute must visit for anyone that loves animals and reptiles! Omar was an incredible guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The sloth experience was worth every penny. Very happy Little Ray's is still around! Made me feel like a kid again being there.

My wife and I did a combo tour today (sanctuary and sloth encounter). I have to say it was one of the best animal tours I have ever done. Our guide (I'm sorry I forget your name) was fantastic. He was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and answered all our questions. Truly an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!!
