Not very organized place, seniors and disabled waited as long as rest of us, till someone went to window to let them know it was super hot and people walking away. Find out if you buy in advance do they have another line? The place is a nice garden and lots to see. Wish it was maintained better.

Had an amazing afternoon wandering these beautiful gardens. They have lots of buildings scattered around holding different plants species/types. The signage around the garden was helpful and clear and the pamphlet they give at the beginning is extremely helpful. I also had a wonderful meal at the cafe/restaurant in the garden. Keep in mind that this garden is mainly trees not flowers if that is of importance to you. I spent about 4 hours here but you could easily do it in 2 or extend it much muc

The Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden is an absolute gem in the heart of the city. A beautiful, peaceful oasis. The gardens are full of tropical plants, colorful flowers, and amazing views of Christ the Redeemer. Perfect for a relaxing walk and great photos. Well-maintained and absolutely worth a visit!

First place that I find the employees that are like Americans where they seem to hate their job and just sap your energy by being close to them. But that was just a few of them. Other than that, it was a very wonderful experience. It’s beautifully manicured and laid out expansive and beautiful monkeys and butterflies, Bromeliads and all sorts of cool stuff. Very definitely worth the experience and the fee. With the fee it keeps all of the small annoyances at bay. Thanks for this experien

The garden is full of different paths where you can explore for a long time without ever getting bored. Along the way, you can spot exotic animals, discover unique plants, and admire countless flowers in a variety of shapes and colors. It feels like a true oasis in the middle of the city.
There is also a lovely café in t
