"Let's start with the booking system: excellent. I'm not sure if we got lucky but it's much better now than my last visit. Anyway, you don't go to a zoo to talk about people or the tickets!! The zoo itself is very well laid out. It's easy to walk around and there's plenty to see and do to keep kids (and adults) occupied. We brought a packed lunch and spent several hours exploring. It's great to see so many different animals. The exhibits are also very informative. Parking is free and close by."
"Great hours spent walking around enjoying the sunshine and animals. We did stop on our way for a bite to wait around the zoo. We queued up to 40 minutes when we did get to the counter it was only one young lad on the till taking orders but another closed till beside him, there was a huge queue formed by the time we got our food but it tasted good. We really enjoyed our day, always staff about picking up loose debris, emptying bins etc."
"This is a great zoo. The zoo is massive and the animals have quite a bit of room. Fauna is fantastic too. Bring your walking shoes because you will cover a lot of ground. My kids absolutely love it but you often see couples here too. Very family friendly. Keepers are great. Just an all-round great zoo."
"Great way to spend a nice sunny day. The tidbits of knowledge scattered around the zoo along with the animals in their beautifully crafted habitats are a treat for senses. Really nice cafes around as well and good spots to just sit and relax while taking in the sun."
"Amazing zoo. Been here multiple times since I was a child. Lots of animals from around the world and all staff seem to be friendly. Food and drinks served around the zoo too with toilets placed along the route. Was here today for the Wild Lights display. It was amazingly done and their was food stands (hot dog, burger + chicken stands inc. vegetarian options) + coffee stands around the route. Really nice display and is worth a visit."
