A free shuttle provides transportation between the Biodôme, Insectarium, Botanical Garden , Olympic Park , & Viau Métro station . You won’t believe what you can see in just one day! -- Green Guide Editor

Edwulf

Get your tickets in advance (web) if you want to avoid lines . You should pay attention to your surroundings because animals roam free (birds and others) don't miss the beavers and otters!

Lo-Anne C

The Biodome has a family room where you can nurse or prepare your formula

Alex

Absolutely worth to visit. Penguins are must see ????❤️

Cooper Smith

Fun photography spot and fairly deserted . Come at sunset

Plaza Science

For me the best of Biodome were the penguins . I attached the link with a photo of Biodome!! Discover Plaza Science, the social networ for people who likes science and photography Read more

Radoslav Rachev

I liked the separation of the zones depending on the climate. It's less magnificent than some of the European zoos .

Paul Brown

All these tips are right... the penguins are the best. They like to play and they're aware you're watching them.

Sunny Muppet

it was really really cool! the ice walls were epic and I really liked the raccoons

Helene Martin

When it's cold outside, the tropical area is a great place to be. Play find the sloths ... There are allegedly 5.

Mickey Bodog

Fantastic attraction ! Definitely worth the price of admission. The otter and penguins were awesome!

Keri Gonzalez

The puffins and penguins are my personal favorites!

Jules Rock

This was the most depressing zoo I've ever seen. The Canadian lux walk up and down like it has lost its mind.Many terrains were very crowded-especially the penguins .Skip it.Montreal has more to offer.

Francis Tasse

Make sure to go to the taxidermy area of the place close to the lockers. A nice way to end your day.

Steve M

Come for whatever, stay for the penguins . Unbelievably energetic. Watch them leap out of the water and land on both feet.

Carl Griffin

Very interesting attempts to recreate the animals natural environments.

Othon Bardela

Excellent place for kids meet animals and different environments

Alexis Edwards

The lynx is so cute , as well as the sloth . I made penguin friends, too :)

Chris O'Brien

Went on a rainy Saturday . That was a mistake. The line wrapped the entire area and we never saw the end of it. Kids crying and running around. Ended up turning around after that

Don't forget to check the stuffed animals exhibition downstair under the cafeteria in the main lounge .

Theresa Summa

Wow, I was sort of disappointed. It was a little depressing. Some animals have better "homes" than others. Can't imagine it's nice to have cameras flashing at you all day.

kav kav

Very cool little "zoo " that tries to blend habitats together. Try to go slow and on less busy days to see more animals

Christopher Nason

This place is worth a visit. Loved the penguins !

Jason H.

Ok. It's an indoor zoo . The guidebooks hype it up. If you're visiting Montreal...honestly...you can skip this unless you are having a major "I must see some animals" craving.

madeline sime

Great show Symphony of life. The animals were awesome

Gage Kaefring

Definitely worth the trip and they offer student prices with valid ID!

David Wolf

Buy tickets online and avoid the massive queue. <aclass="entity url"rel="nofollow" href="https://billets.espacepourlavie.ca/en/"target="_blank" data-sig="ZxbNkT7FRLez9lqLbFqJ4j45q4k=" onmousedown="fourSq.ui.OutgoingLink.mousedown($(this), event)" data-source="tip-text">https://billets.espacepourlavie.ca/en/</a>

Jeremy Krantz

Skip the long lines but purchasing your tickets online ahead of time

Cho & Nilla ♥

Bring a lunch mini-cooler place it in the locker cause the cost for the food there is not worth it. For the price of a family of 5 (about $10) a person it's best to wait and head over to a restaurant .

Andrea Solano Florez

Take your time and be patient so you'll get to see all the animals!

Luis Rodriguez

Be patient to find and see all animals posible. 2 hours visit could be enought.

Caterina Salvatori-Hsuen

Buy your tickets online otherwise you will wait in a long line

Michelle St-urbain

Soooooo many fun animals see!!!!

Danielle Pal

SO FUN. SO MUCH WILDLIFE

Marina Flores

Best of Montreal

Steve Bissonnette

Family pass is well worth the $ — used it 1/2 dozen time this year on rainy days.

Francis Tasse

If you have a looney, fit everything inside a locker for the day.

Wendy Lin

best place to explore animals in forests like tropicalthe

Reena B-S

Careful not to get pooped on in the aviary!

Bones

No military discount but an adult ticket is $15 if you are a resident of Québec.
