I go to reptile world mostly because I am an avid tortoise lover, and have some myself. Its always great to visit Reptile World and see all the different species they have around. Especially the huge sulcatas are my favorite, but all of them are worth having a look at. The rest of Reptile World is great as well, and I just love the venomous snake demonstrations. A very experienced handler, and it takes away a lot of the fear of snakes in general. It helped me learn that not every snake I see is automatically a poisonous one, and how to react around snakes I might stumble upon when going outside.
Pros: lots of parking spots, not crowded, very knowledgeable and helpful people
Cons: a bit far off for most people, but I leave just around the corner
