Cruise by one of the most gorgeous Fort Lauderdale attractions, The House of Butterflies along the Riverfront Boat tour in Fort Lauderdale.

The Butterfly House in Fort Lauderdale is a hobby turned mania that has become one of the most popular local attractions. Every child is born with a passion or a gift; Ronald Boender, a retired electrical engineer from Illinois, had a passion for butterflies. As you walk through the lush gardens of Butterfly World, flitting butterflies accost you from every angle, but don't be alarmed, as these are some of the most fragile and gentle creatures in the world. Although butterflies roam about in our everyday world, paying a visit to Butterfly World allows the visitor to see the rarest and most beautiful butterflies, creating an enchanting experience. Seen from the water along the boat tour you can appreciate the magnificent size and luxury estate that it is.
Born and raised in Illinois by Dutch parents, Ronald Boender grew up with a passionate love for butterflies, beginning with common varieties on his father's farm. After retiring from his work as an electrical engineer, his interest in butterflies was once again kindled, and his backyard hobby soon became a business of rearing and selling butterflies to universities and zoos. He named his company MetaScience Co.
Soon, he became aware of butterfly houses emerging into popularity, and he traveled abroad to meet the trailblazer, Clive Farrell, who founded the London Butterfly House. Boender decided it was time for the United States to follow this trend, so he formed a partnership with Farrell and made plans to build the first butterfly house in America; it would be an attraction as well as a research and education facility. The Butterfly House Florida opened its doors to the public for the first time on March 28, 1988. Be sure to take pictures from the boat tour as your tour guide announces it on the tour!
