If you're a nature/bird lover, this is a must do. Try to go in the morning when it's less hot and the birds are more active. Admission is like $17, and if you take your time, you'll spend about 2-3 hours there. If you're doing this as a day trip from old town, try and find a taxi driver who will take you, wait for you, then bring you back. It's VERY remote (takes about 80 minutes to get to) and the chances you can get a taxi or Uber back from the Aviary are LOW. We scheduled an UBER the night before to pick us up at our hotel. When we met him, we asked if he would wait 3 hours and then drive us back. He agreed. The price out there was like $25. The price for him to wait and bring us back was $30. That's a GREAT value for basically 6 hours. You CANNOT schedule an UBER in advance to pick you up from the Aviary and cell service is spotty out there. Make sure you have a way to get back from there BEFORE you go!
