Victoria Bug Zoo

Fodor's Review:

Local kids clamor to visit this offbeat mini-zoo, home to the largest tropical insect collection in North America. You can even hold many of the 60 or so varieties, which include walking sticks, scorpions, millipedes, and a pharnacia—at 22 inches, the world's longest insect. The staff members know their bug lore and are happy to dispense scientific information.

  • Cost: C$8
  • Open: Mid-June-early Sept., daily 10-6; early Sept.-mid-June, Mon.-Sat. 10-5:30, Sun. 11-5:30
