We used our Tesco Clubcard vouchers to visit Paradise Wildlife Park. The parking us free and there are plenty if places to have a picnic so it was a very good value day out. The Park itself has good variety of animals and although some are a bit hard to see, it was good fun trying to spot them.
The highlight was sitting in the cafe by the tiger enclosure having an ice cream and watching the tigers doze less then 20 feet away through great big windows, perfect!
The animals all looked so well looked after and we also loved the Tapir feeding time and Bird displays where the birds fly so close to the audience, my little girl was in awe of the large owls.
There were lots of play areas, all free, and a ride on train(£1 each), as well as a paddling pool area, which we didn't have time to use.
The staff and facilities were good too!
I highly recommend this great day out!

This is a really nice zoo
The animals are healthy looking and kept in enclosures that are like a jungle setting
We really liked the tree top view where you can look down on the lions and tigers
The zoo is set in well maintained gardens so it's nice just walking through
There are lots of benches to have a picnic and the parking is good
For younger children there are lots of play areas

Spent 9hrs at the park while my daughter attended her Shadow a keeper day.
Nice little zoo well maintained, staff very helpful animals are well cared for and loads to do for kids 1 and up.
Lots being updated at our visit, new buildings and animal paddocks.
Food in the cafeteria was good and fairly priced.
Well worth a visit with the little ones

We bought this for our sons birthday as he is tiger obsessed. We had a fabulous visit.
Our guide was so amazingly knowledgable and enthusiast about all of the 'cats'. They are clearly concerned with conservation and education. The guided walk lasted a good hour then we had our afternoon tea. Fantastic spread very scrummy sandwiches and cakes. You are overlooking the tiger enclosure. My only criticism is that only a couple of the tables are by the window and so unless u get in first although you have lovely food you won't see the tigers. It rocks be super if somehow they could redesign the area to have more window seating. Still a fantastic experience. The rest of the park was interesting and all in all a wonderful family day out.

This was my second visit here and we had a fantastic day out both times. The animals are all very well kept. Plenty of places to sit and have a picnic if you want to but there is also plenty of reasonably priced food outlets. Lots of play areas for the children around the park.
This is a very good value for money day out.

On this visit I done a feed the big cats experience, it was one of the best things I have ever done, I chose to feed the tigers, and got very up close to them actually having one take food out of my hand, all carried out in a very safe way with a keeper, one of very few places in the world where you get to hold the meat and have the tiger take it from your hand, awesome to get so close and appreciate the power of such a cuddly animal that would kill you in a second if it wasn't for the fence, you just want to put your hand through and stroke them.
I will be back again soon

Pros: good size zoo, good selection of animals to include couple of rare ones such as white tiger - must see!, huge parking (go as early as you can if you want parking space near main entrance), many picnic areas (you can bring your own food - they will stamp your hand on entry so you can leave everything in your car and pick it up when needed), children playground, opportunity to see how animals are fed as they advertise timings.

Cons: it is not the cheapest atraction, very chaotic layout, we were going around in circles on couple occasions and finding new attractions on our way out when our little one was sleeping in her buggy, map didn't help much. Maybe better signage would help.

Would I go back there? Definitely yes. We did enjoy our family day out a lot. Allow at least 6 hours, ideally whole day for your visit.

Had a virgin experience voucher to use & booked the Tiger Tea. Spent an enjoyable couple of hours touring the park before our allotted time to visit the big cats. Our guide Ian was excellent, very knowledgeable and experienced. It was a hot day and the cats were dozy but Ian made sure we got to see them as far as possible. The Tea afterwards was very pleasant in the tree top cafe overlooking the Tigers. All in all a good day out.

First visit to Paradise Wildlife Park. What a wonderful day out. This was so much better than I was expecting.

The animals were in top notch condition. The viewing platforms for the big cats in particular were a brilliant idea.

We attended two of the talks......big cats and then later the cheetah one.

A huge thank you to Nick for sharing all his big cat knowledge with us. He is such a credit to Paradise Wildlife Park.

On a hot sunny day Paradise Wildlife Park is a great day out for a family with young children. The park's zoo offers a range of animals while the kid's attractions are numerous and diverse from bouncy castles, mini splash park, miniature railway, adventure playground - the list goes on and on! There's no doubt the park's facilities like tired in places but given a family ticket is £5-10+ cheaper than popular nearby favourites like Willows Farm; overall it delivers fantastic value for money.

Amazing place. Animals are really well kept and the keepers keep the environments clean and tidy. The staff are nice and really keen on keeping all the park clean and tidy too. Play areas and entertainment are fantastic. Food is a bit pricey but good. I would suggest to buy the tickets online as they are cheaper. A very good day out especially with children, I would definitely recommend it!

Great day - weekday during term time so nice and quiet. The ONLY bugbear I have is that quite a lot of the kiosks and some rides were closed and there were around 3 or 4 areas of the park under refurbishment so no tractor ride (try explaining that to a 3 year old) I totally get that if it's not busy maybe don't open everything and I get that work needs to be done but .... for the same price ticket as the weekend/holidays?

5* doesn't go high enough. Outstanding venue. Staff always on hand to help or explain. Shows and talks were brilliant. Love this place so much I go at least 5-10 times a year.

I take my granddaughter here during the school holidays, we spend all day here and she is reluctant to leave when closing, so must be good, she is 8 years old.

Spent half a day at the park with my two sons aged 2 and 6. The viewing platforms allow you to get fab views of the animals, in particular the lions. Kids enjoyed being so close to the animals with great unrestricted views.
They also enjoyed being able to feed the farm animals, with feed brought on site.
My six year old son enjoyed the go carts and play grounds.
The only disappointing part of our time was service in Safari Sam's diner, apart from the queue the ladies that were serving seemed to take their time, almost moving in slow motion. The food itself was average could be a lot better. I would recommend just taking a picnic.
Luckily I purchased our tickets the day before on a discount website ( picniq tickets) and got tickets for a family of four for £52 rather than £70 plus at the park.

The 6 of us went here at the weekend. Got lucky with the weather. Arrived early and nice and quiet. Park has been developed since our trip a year ago. Lots of improvement going on. Loved our day out here. Lots to see and do. Boys of 3 and 4 walked it all with some rests. Great coffee watching the Tigers from the restaurant. Nice train ride (£1 each), and day finished with some fun with the magician and balloon man, which the boys really enjoyed. Will definitely return. Great family day out

Paradise Wildlife park is absolutely brilliant for the whole family. It gives people a chance to see animals they probably never would be able to see otherwise. You are able to get up close and really see what they are about. The learning aspect by the park is brilliant, they keep the children fully entertained and enthralled.
The food and drink side of things are good value for money too and the service is spot on. It's worth a visit

A good day out but far too expensive and some of the enclosure's for the big cats are far too small.
