A good day out - would say membership cost effective if local or using ZSEA cards for a free visit is recommended to get the most of it. Dinosaurs were amazing. Long trek to the entrance from the car park so arrive early if you need to park close by. Zoo animals were enjoyed by all. Some no sees such as the tigers but we expect that from a good enclosure to be honest. Bird display was very busy so couldn't find a seat but worth a watch as so few places do these any more. The boulder beach was a bit uninspiring and empty. Would prob not go just for this aspect unless a member already! Found it tricky to find a drink at one point but there's a good range of food outlets at entrance. They didn't stay open until close so we missed out on donuts! Overall we spent an afternoon here - about four to five hours.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Huge zoo so well spread out that you don't need to worry about over crowding, the best day ever was had by us, thank you Hertfordshire Zoo definitley have to visit so many animals and talks, entertainment. Brilliant day out.
Only thing I would say, it would be great if the zoo actually had the numbers aroud each point like they do on the map, helpful to people like me that have no sense of direction

Hertfordshire Zoo did not disappoint! Our four year old loved seeing the dinosaurs and it was great to be able to have our picnic in the dinosaur picnic area too. There is a lot to see but it feels very accessible, clear signage and paths to help connect the animal experiences. The bird show was great. The different heights of viewing platforms and windows was really positive, we saw many of the animals fairly close. Lots of toilets, refreshments and opportunities to sit down if needed. Lots of activities for children with soft play, adventure playground and splash area to name a few. We'll be back to have a ride on the T-Rex train!

World of dinosaurs was fantastic but overall the zoo was dissapointing, food/drink outlets were awful(bring your own food) a cup of coffee that tasted like dishwater, and the young staff had no interest in their jobs, £2 extra for dino train ride.

We had a wonderful day. This park is fantastic. So many happy, well cared for animals could be visited. The staff were wonderful, friendly and knowledgeable. The bird show was amazing. The park is very well laid out and easy to get around with great views. We even ate in the pizza restaurant with a prowling tiger. There’s a schedule of talks and shows, with some great playgrounds with the soft play and splash park too. It’s especially great value if you have a Blue Peter badge, Blue Light card or pre-buy your ticket. We will be back.

Its been a while since we've been here some very nice updates. From my piont of veiw ( and this is just me ) spent far to much time trying to compare the new to old lay outs and not enjoying the animals, BUT I'm sure with return visits this will improve

My daughter, my grandsons and myself visited the Zoo on Wednesday 19th August 2026. It's a lovely Zoo plus it has play areas and a soft play area. We visited those and saw all the animals that were out! It was a lovely day out. We took packed lunch and bought coffee and ice creams which just added to the enjoyment!

One the best zoos to go in or around London. Would highly recommend it. The shops had ice creams and drink reasonably priced. Went with my son who had the greatest time.

This is a great day out with plenty to do and excellent value for money. The zoo really is kept to a very high standard and is easy to navigate. There are lots of extra bits too, like Dinosaur land and kids entertainment, train rides, play parks. There are loads of seating areas for eating and at several points in the zoo so you can continue your day. A handy stamp allows you to come in and out to your car. Staff are extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. There is a real element of care shown for the animals here. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful zoo. Love the dinosaur part as my autistic child finds it fascinating. Avoid going during heatwave as many of the animals are hiding.

Great experience and stro gly recommendthis place. Dinosaur park was excellent, but shame about the 45min queue to get in. Would have made more sense to have someone walk the queue and scan online tickets.

Excellent place to spend the day.
Walked the dinosaur trail and went on the dinosaur train, then visited the animals, including tiger, sun bear and lemurs etc.

Visited with my 2 year old who loved every aspect of it. The animal zoo is full of great exhibits, set up really well and is enough on its own.

On top of it there is the dinosaur park which is brilliantly interactive, a dinosaur train and shows on stage which ran all day long. We didn't even get to boulder beach!

My little girl loved all of it and was entertained all day long. It's set up so well for little ones and plenty to enjoy as a family.

We visited today Mon 17th August and had a fantastic day, my two grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the day. My main reason for writing is to recommend an idea I’ve seen before, works for families. Have you thought about having lockers (in shaded areas) around the park say for a £1 a day use, so families can put their picnic bags, coats etc in their and can access during their visit. If stops customers having to carry all their picnic stuff around all day. They can just access as and when they need too throughout the day. If you had 150 of these, that would be £150 extra profit per day. Worth thinking about. Just a n idea for you

Wonderful day there eith friends. Saw almost all the animals and babies. Attended all the keeper talks extremely interesting, these people are passionate about caring for and learning about the animals. The new " Lemurs of Madagascar " is incredible, being in thete with nothing between you and the lemurs.
