Colombians don't eat ants instead of popcorn at movie theaters like they said in the Bug Buffet. Smh. Overall, learned a lot & enjoyed the experience!

Good experience for both adults and children. Nice to have knowledgeable staff with insect stations. Eating crickets and worms were a great experience too.
Thank you!
