Very disappointing Halloween family evening. Too much waiting for each animation, too loud sound and inaccessible buffet A tip: especially do not arrive in the last because you will not have any snacks!! Our visit was punctuated by completely empty dishes:(
Double disappointment with the management who did not offer us any commercial gestures; pity we will not return for an off-season visit.
I don't advise, too expensive for what it is.

Bonjour,
Nous sommes navrés d'apprendre que la soirée ne vous a pas donné satisfaction. Concernant la sono et l'attente, nous prenons bonne note de vos remarques qui sont importantes pour nous afin d'améliorer nos soirées chaque année. Pour ce qui est de l'apéritif, nous remplissons les plats à plusieurs reprises lors de la soirée, mais nous arrêtons à une certaine heure avancée afin de laisser la soirée s'enchaîner avec la suite des activité et du repas et d'éviter le gaspillage. Suivant votre heure d'arrivée (la soirée commence à 18h30), il est effectivement possible que les plats n'aient pas été remplis à nouveau.

Allow between 2 and 4 hours of presence on site. Attend educational and fun activities. The tropical greenhouse is home to many species of reptiles. The dinosaur park is a beautiful reconstruction and the plant spaces are very pleasant to browse. Positive experience

We spent a great family day in this park during our vacation. Superb reptiles so close, which amaze young and old! The dino park that my son loved, and the Indian area and the activities offered which allow you to enjoy this park.
It is well maintained, clean, without forgetting the very friendly staff.
Small disappointment not to have been able to see the marmosets or the scorpions.
We hope to see them during our next visit because obviously we have to do it again!

Bonjour Laetitia, nous sommes ravis que votre visite ainsi que les différentes animations et activités vous aient plu ! Concernant les ouistitis, nous avons récemment réalisé des travaux dans leur enclos pour leur permettre d'accéder à une partie extérieure, et donc ils étaient parfois un peu plus cachés en journée mais en repassant plusieurs fois pendant la visite ils finissaient toujours par sortir et se mettre devant. Les scorpions sont des animaux plutôt nocturnes, et nous avons fait le choix d'un aménagement de terrarium leur permettant de se cacher pour éviter le stress, il faut donc effectivement avoir un peu de chance pour les voir dehors. Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau à Planet Exotica pour voir tous nos animaux !

We have visited Planet Exotica for the second time. The terrariums for each reptile species are fantastic. You can literally feel that the animals are happy. After the fantastic walk through Planet Exotica (large outdoor area with Dinoland) there is the opportunity to have a bite to eat (very tasty) and there is also a reptile show with the operator (boss)

What a horrific place to take anybody, not just children. Don't take your children here, go to zoo palmyre instead. The exhibitions are scruffy, the go karts are all smashed to bits, not a single one was working, the big goat in the petting area was aggressive to my two children, we have lots of animals at home and vast experience with goats, this one was too aggressive to have in a petting area. The petting area is also overgrown with nettles, not ideal for children! There was broken glass all through the bamboo forest. The palaeontology pit was full of broken paintbrushes with sharp edges. Half the dinosaurs paint has fallen off. The carp are swimming around in an algae infested lake. The trampolines didn't open until 11:30, why weren't they open on opening? The children's play area is a death trap. It cost us 45 euros to go in when we could have gone to zoo palmyre instead and had a wonderful time. When we questioned the director, his response was terrible. He just kept smiling at us, never said sorry, no apology, nothing. He doesn't seem prepared to listen or fix any of the issues, apparently as director it is not his responsibility, so I would suggest you don't take your children there!

Easily signposted and plenty of free parking. Great for half a day out, lots of snakes and reptiles to see, the gardens are lovely. The staff are friendly and during the holidays they do informative shows with snakes and crocs. The handsome chap who does the shows obviously loves the reptiles and the show was very informative,( in French). There are trampolines, go carts and an indoor play adventure area for the youngsters. Our group aged between 10 and 80 all had a great afternoon.

We are regular visitors to Royan and we wanted to bring our children to the Jardin du Monde which we have previously visited lots of times. The last time ever came (2012), there was the addition of many inflatables for kids. It seemed a little out of character, but we understood that the gardens needed to attract a wider audience.
Alas, this year the attraction had been rebranded into Planet Exotica. It is basically the same attraction, with less staff, the grass not being cut and the plants unattended. What was truly awful was the 200 year old bonsai trees have been moved out of the greenhouse to outside and have been left to grow without care. It is such a shame to see these trees which have been cared by many different people for so long have been moved to the sidelines.
The tropical house now is home to a wide array of snakes and reptiles. I must admit the collection is a good one, with many venomous snakes to view and a good selection of crocs, alligators and turtles.
Thank goodness that there was one inflatable bouncy house left for the kids to play on and some trampolines, else they would have been bored. Of the go karts, only one was in a safe working order.
There is a bar at the reception area. For food, we managed to secure the last few bags of chips. The beer (pression) was good.
All in all, the place looks as though it had been recently bought as a short term money maker. However, I doubt the owners will make their fortune from this attraction in its current state. A real shame that Royan's jewel in the crown has been allowed to fall into this state.

We visited this recently June 2014 while on holidays in the area. It advertised snakes and a butterfly farm along with dinosaurs (large reproductions).The charge was 12.50 euro each adult, I cannot recall the charge for children. We felt it was very over priced, its wasn't very well run and while there were some snakes it was poorly laid out. There only appeared to one breed of butterfly and while it was nice to wandered round the gardens outside it certainly wasn't worth the entrance fee. Much better to spend 15 euro and spend the whole day at the zoo in La Palmyre just some 20 minutes up the road.

Like so many reviewers before us, we visited Planet Exotica only to be disappointed by the changes made to the once beautiful Jardins du Monde. The vivarium was interesting, the butterflies lacking in numbers and species and the orchids decidedly faded. The Japanese/Bonsai expo remains worth seeing but the rest of the gardens did not merit the 12 Euros 50 entrance fee. The children we saw running around certainly were enjoying the dinosaur models which to us seemed a ploy to entice families to visit. It is not really a value for money experience. What a shame.

Visited on a day when the weather forecast was mixed. Great variety of activities which ended up keeping our kids aged 3 and 6 entertained all day. Reptiles, play areas, pedal go karts, Indian village, gineau pig island, little farm with goats you can feed and a random bar! The kids loved the Dino park the best and we couldn’t get them away. Got a discount t from where we were staying as wasn’t cheap but certainly worth it.

Bonjour,
nous avons visité le parc Planet Exotica lors de nos vacances l'année dernière (2014).
On y a vu des mues des mygales et une employée du parc nous a informé que d'ici 2015 il y en aurai des vivantes. Je voudrai savoir si c'est effectivement le cas car nous comptons y retourner cette année pour revoir ce joli parc.
