Zanzibar Butterfly Centre, Paje

The centre has a nostalgic feel especially when you think of butterflies and the beauty they add in nature..we were looking forward to a step back in nature and experiencing this in their natural environment..the host was knowledgeable especially in explaining the life cycle and showing us around but unfortunately the centre has a neglected look. The place is abit run down and even the butterfly sighting wasn't as expected which was disappointing as the uniqueness of it would have made the experience worth the entrance fee paid. The place has potential and most people would identify with the magical feeling of being in nature surrounded by the beautiful butterflies.

We had the best time visiting the butterfly center. Itis a very unique and peaceful place. There was something truly idyllic about walking around being surrounded by all those beautiful butterflies and the sounds from the forest. You could also tell how passionate our tour guide was about not just the butterflies but nature and animals in general. We also love the concept or idea behind the center: promoting sustainable use of natural resources while providing extra income for the locals there.
