Summary: Never knew how many cactus and succulents existed. We were searching for things to do whilst staying in Echuca and hubby came across this. So glad he did. It was amazing. We spent a few hours there as it is quite a large site to cover. Very well laid out and signposted. We’ve never been to Mexico, but it certainly felt as if we were there. They also have a cafe which serves Mexican food. We had lunch there, nachos with chilli con carne and chicken on the side. Thank goodness we decided to share as there was plenty of food, no stinginess in their servings. The staff were really lovely, friendly and very helpful. Also great for coeliacs, which my husband happens to be.
