Was lovely. Well looked after animals which was nice too see. Friendly staff. Food and drink was major over prized and rhe toilets was vile, Looked like they hadn't been touched in a week.

Brilliant. The majority of all proceeds go to the park and animals.<br>The only downside is the food.<br>The new Jurassic Park is informative and kids will love it.

Second review on here for paradise, visited a year ago and came back as we now get half price tickets because we have annual passes for a local zoo that offers this.
Most of my other review remains the same as not much has changed, except the new dinosaur exhibition is amazing! We have a dinosaur park near us with static models, but this blows it out of the water, and is included with park admission too! I think we almost spent as much time in here as we did the rest of the park, the models are amazing and are sensor activated so they move when you get nearby. Plenty of photo opportunities indeed! The only thing we didn't do was the Dino train as that cost extra (understandable but kinda upset it wasn't included).
As for the rest of the zoo, I don't think much was different from a year ago aside from some new additions like the red panda that replaced one who unfortunately passed away. We were hoping the nocturnal house would be built but it wasn't, so maybe a visit will be in order next year.
Standout exhibits would be the white lions, who you can see without bars/glass (love this type of exhibit as opposed to ones where it is hard to see) and in fact most of the big cat viewing which is from a series of elevated walkways.

We visited the Paradise Wildlife Park whilst staying in nearby Harlow.
The Dinosaur Park was amazing with loads of real size robotic dinosaurs and a nice little train. This in itself is well worth a visit!
There were lot's of animals both inside and outside. The talks throughout the day, based around feeding the animals were very informative. The highlights for me was the Red Pandas and Otters. Nice to see that this was all about conservation and a lot of good work going on for animal charities.
The food outlets were typical of similar places, as we went during the week out of high season not all of them were open, however the main cafe was. There was plenty of choice but the food wasn't particularly cheap but was good quality.
There were also lots of play areas, swings etc. for children.
All in all a lovely day out, great for kids and adults alike.

Great place, little one loved it. Spent 3 happy hours in the morning.<br><br>Only drawback is the queues.<br>You can anticipate the footfall on a Saturday morning to lunch, have more staff at the front gates and cafe.<br>Unfortutely lost half an hour between these two

Amazing so glad we came. I used to have a family membership but since my grandchildren were getting older they haven’t always wanted to come. Today I came with 4 of my grandchildren ranging from 8-13 and we have really enjoyed it. The dinosaur park was a real hit with all of us. Well done to whoever came up with that idea. Worth every penny

The dinosaur section and the playground was good for my son however I felt the animals didn't have enough space, they tried to cran as many animals in as possible in what space they have, I felt sorry for them. Maybe it's because we went to Whipsnade before this some months back where the animals have tonnes of space in comparison.

A brilliant day out. Love going here with my family. My daughter is young but still loves running around and there's so much to do. New dinosaur area is amazing, well worth the visit.

Although out of season the park still had a good variety of animals and all looked well cared for.
The restaurant however was not a good place to eat. We had burger meals that used tasteless meat and the rolls were dry.
If you need to eat I would take a picnic.

It's a shame because I really liked this place because it had a wide variety of animals and other creatures. But this time around I was sorely disappointed do to the lack of variety they had compared to the years I visited before. The only thing I would say that has improved was the addition of Jurassic park which I must say was superb. That was a nice touch. I feel it could be developed further in the future and if done right, would make for an amazing experience. I would still recommend at least one visit to see for yourself as this place has great potential.

Went here on a very wet Saturday. Decent selection of animals, even though many were in their shelters you can view through the windows.
The new dinosaur part is very well done and kids would love it.
All the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful.
The cafe was reasonably priced. £7 for a burger, chips and drink with the option of adding cheese for £1.20 which I thought was a bit much.
The enclosures all looked very clean and spacious. Even though there were talks all day we got around the whole zoo in around 3 hours, with a lunch stop. Maybe it was cause of the rain we got through quicker.

We had an absolutely fab day out. A full day at that! Had gone for a family day out and also as I had arranged the Rainforest experience for my wife. The whole day was flawless. Staff are brilliant and friendly and knowledgeable. Animals and all the enclosures looked well kept.

I'd never heard of this place before but was looking for something to do on the way to a weekend trip in London. This place is great! There is a wide selection of different animals to see and we were particularly impressed by the wooden walkways that enabled good views of the many enclosures. The staff were very friendly and the grounds extremely tidy and well kept. I would definitely recommend a visit here as you can easily spend several hours here for a very reasonable entry fee.
