Paradise Wildlife Park
Latest Reviews
I bought my Husband the champagne breakfast with the big cats experience for his 50th birthday and was really impressed. We were treated like VIPs for the whole experience, it lasted a good amount of time & we could then enjoy the park for the rest of the day. The breakfast was extensive and we weren't rushed. The keeper who took us around the big cat section was knowledgeable and friendly, and hand feeding the snow leopards was a great experience that you can't get at most other places. We were so impressed with the day that we have since booked a stay at the big cat sanctuary in Kent, which Paradise is affiliated with. This is well worth the money and we're sure to take part in other animal experiences here in future.

Had a lovely day. A great day out for young families. The splash pool was great as it was a hot day. Dinosaurs were really good, and the childrens fun park was brilliant. Our 3 yr old had a fantastic fun packed day....and you dont get charged for parking.

Good but it's a bit dated. Thankfully we found a 20% off code that helped. It was the school holiday but didn't seam packed even though the car park was full. A few too many enclosures were closed. It's decently one for the little kids. Teenagers won't enjoy it much.

Good day out, has a good level of animal welfare considered with its enclosures. Animal seem to receive adequate welfare but some animal do show abdominal beahavours but only a few. All in all good day out and I was happy with the animal level of care

Fab family day out. We pre booked tickets online which did save us some money. Got there for as soon as it opened and decided to do the Dinosaur part 1st, which was the highlight of my 4 year olds day. He loved it! The animatronic dinosaurs were brilliant. The staff in the baby dinosaur nursery and gift shop were superb. We walked around this twice before venturing into the animal park. Quite a lot of the animals were not that viable, due to overgrown bushes and also that the animals themselves were hiding, which is what's expected. Was a bit surprised to find the dinosaur train was an extra cost and not included in the price. At £2 per person, it cost us an extra £10 for a 5 minute dinosaur ride through what we had already walked through and seen. By midday the park was extremely busy, and the soft play was rammed so we had to avoid that area. The play park with swings and slides were good too, lots of energetic children and space to run riot.

We had a fab day out here. There's so much to see and do kept the kids entertained for hours. The pool is also a great bonus.
Would certainly recommend and be going again.

Paradise wildlife park just keeps giving!!!!
Even on a fairly miserable day, the variety and amount of animals kept us happy for a big part of the day! Then once you've finished with the planets current wildlife you can jump back in time and visit the land of dinosaurs!
With an indoor play area and plenty of other attractions outside we found Paradise Wildlife Park great value for money and will definitely be returning.
Not many places to buy food though at this time of year so may be a good idea to pack a lunch!
Also plenty of work going on for new attractions for Easter onwards!

The park is normally fantastic especially for Big Cats and the conservation work they do.
if you are planning a family day out themed around any of the Dinosaur, Australian or Farmyard animals go ahead.
However if your visit is for Big Cats postpone til after October. The white lions have a great enclosure but currently their Tigers, Snow Leopards and Jaguars are all barely visible due to construction works and lack of availability of the staircases and platforms built to see the cats.
I did get in touch with customer service but they didnt apologise for the disappointment or really empathise with the situation. Obviously where everyone chooses to spend is important right now. Really a shame as my first ever visit was much better than this one.

A lot of caged animals. Leopard pacing around its pen in a manic trot was depressing. Watching tigers snooze from cafe was cool. The 4 lions were impressive but the enclosures just cant be big enough. Pitched to under 6 year olds but they cant grasp the enormity of range of animals. And the joy of interacting with passive aggressive parents who should behave better in a public space

What an absolutely amazing day! My girlfriend and I bought each other a zookeeper shadowing experience day for Christmas and it was everything we’d hoped for and more. The day included:
- helping to clean up (and meet) the alpacas
- helping to prepare food for the animals
- personally feeding the meerkats, red pandas, otters, squirrel monkeys and ring-tailed lemurs over the course of the day (yes, all of them!)
- handling, flying and feeding an Owl
- watching a bird show and big cat feed
- handling reptiles (including a tarantula!)
- two meals (breakfast and lunch)
- insightful information on all of the animals from the various zookeepers we worked with
- free time to look at the other incredible animals around the wildlife park.
All of the wildlife park staff were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and willing to go above and beyond to make sure our day was one we’d never forget. It was clear the absolute passion each zookeeper had for their animals and the relationships they had formed.
Genuinely, one of the best days I’ve ever had and I couldn’t recommend this experience any more highly. If you are thinking of doing animal experience, this is the zoo to do it, and you may as well push the boat out for a full day experience as you see so many different things.
It is worth noting that every shadow zookeeper experience is slightly different dependent on what is going on on that day.
I would just like to personally thank everybody at paradise wildlife park for making our day completely unforgettable. Thank you!
