An excellent day out with friends and the kids. Loads to see and do and really engaged/enthusiastic staff, which was a plus.<br><br>My only criticism, and this is true of many zoos, is the big cat enclosures. I appreciate the trade off between cost, visitors being able to see the animals up close and giving the animals the space they need, but as always I felt they just didn't have enough. That said, they did have more room than at many other places I've been too, and although the cheetah lacked muscle tone and was pacing around the enclosure it was otherwise very well looked after.<br><br>On balance though I'd definitely recommend for a day out with the kids, and will almost certainly be back.

This is our second family visit to PWP and whilst we previously found it very enjoyable (2 years ago) it is even better now. The new Dinosaur area (with animatronic dinosaurs) is fantastic and informative. The new Amazon experience is also great.
It really does have everything for a fun family out - lots of animals, indoor / outdoor play areas, splash water area, picnic areas / food for sale etc etc.
The park is very well organised with LOTS of staff on hand to help out, direct, guide etc so it feels very safe (important when you have 'adventurous' little ones). Also, they seem to be constantly improving the park - new play areas, new experiences, new enclosures etc. So even if you have been a year or two ago it is worth revisiting.
Hopefully next on their list is to refresh the Lagoon splash play area.
Great value and very enjoyable!

Love the new Dinosaur section. Some of the enclosures seem a bit small.

Our first visit to the paradise park was a great one... there really is something for everyone here and unlike some places there’s plenty of things to entertain the kids when walking round.

The tiger cafe was completely amazing and I don’t think I’ve been so close to as many animal before. New dinosaur walk round was also great.

Food and drink a very good price and so was the extra bits they offered here like facepainting and hair braids etc.

My only few small issues were the toilets (although clean) were more like huts. And splash pool was completely over crowded with children banging into each other all over the place. Needs a banding System in place or something to make it safe.

Worth a wonder round the speedway museum bit aswell, the guy running the place was lovely

We’ve been visiting PWP for years but every year it improves and is worth visiting again. This year they have added animatronic dinosaurs. They were fantastic noisy moving robots in keeping with a visit to Jurassic park. The path is easily accessible and all the dinosaurs move and make sounds. Beside each is an informative plaque. You can even have your photo taken on a safari jeep in front of the t-Rex. The outdoor and indoor play areas and splash park continue to keep the kids amused to burn off that last bit of energy. Cross the road and here you find all the big cats; lions, tigers, jaguars, leopards and cheetahs. All easily visible from the ground or walkways. There are also reptiles and marmosets, gibbons, tapirs, camels, penguins, red pandas, wolves and much more. The new Amazon section is fantastic with an enormous anaconda. I can’t wait for the bat area to complete its revamp. Then there are the birds: owls, parrots, lorikeets and more. There is just so much to see. Our favourite place to eat is at the tiger cafe where you can watch the tigers as you eat. We also find that the food options are healthier than at the main diner. That’s the only criticism I have in that the hot food options could be healthier and look more appetising across the park. We tend to bring our own food and there are plenty of tables to use. All in all a brilliant day out that the kids will enjoy again and again.

Fantástico lugar para ir con niños, por sus diferentes espacios, grandes áreas, los muchos Fe linos exhibidos y otros animales. Muy educativo el espacio de los dinosaurios y los demás lugares para divertirse.

A really great day out for all the family but will definately go back with the kids, so much for them to do here. We loved the idea of having an upper level to view all the big cats, get a really good view.

We did the hand feed experience before the park opened which was amazing as just two of us and the keeper a wonderful young lady Hannah i think
We had a lovely tour and fed the snow leopard and had champagne breakfast

The breakfast was ok, just average cold items, but amazing views of tigers from cafe

Once the park opened its very busy and noisy which as a couples experience made it less enjoyable but the rest of the park is very nice despite this.

Such good value for money. Perfect for the little ones with loads of playground equipment round every corner... love the new Dinosaur world area with the animatronic dinosaurs. Also great to be able to view the animals from more than one angle (From the ground and on the treetops walkways)

The wildlife park is ok but when compared to other places like Colchester Zoo which has a lot more to see and do with big enclosures isn’t that much more to get in it makes this hard to recommend just off price alone.<br><br>If your local and don’t want to go far then this is a benefit but again in terms of things to do and see I would suggest other places for the same money.<br><br>I went during the dinosaur exhibit/display and this was good and of high quality but when going to other places in the park they felt old and in need of updating animals where kept in quite small enclosures which was good because you could get close but the viewing areas where very crowded. Again some good and bad.

Having always loved Paradise Wildlife Park I thought why not get married there and it was the best decision. The location is beautiful and the pictures look amazing with that backdrop. James, our wedding planner, was fantastic from start to finish. We can’t thank him enough! He took all the stress out of planning a wedding. The best thing was, he genuinely cared about us having the best day! And we did.
All the staff were fantastic. I can’t get over how lovely they all were! It was the little things I was blown away by - standing next to me with water so I could have the odd sip whilst saying hello to 100 people.
The food was good and there was so so so much!!!
The room was decorated to perfection. The whole day was perfect. Thank you James and Paradise Wildlife Park.

Celebrating my grandsons 2nd birthday,we went with my 4 year old granddaughter,daughter and her partner,and my eldest daughter.The weather was ok but a bit chilly for the kids for the splash pool.
We had a great day,the kids loved seeing the animals,they also had a great time in the play areas,and they really enjoyed the new dinosaur world with all the animals moving and roaring.All the staff were cheerful which is important with loads of kids running around.
Plenty of places to eat,and also to sit if you,ve brought your own food.We were there about 5 hours which flew by as the kids were enjoying themselves.
