Just thought we should say how good my wife and daughters mini Zoo keepers day was today.
From the moment we arrived at reception, we were looked after extremely well.
Lady in reception made us welcome and a nice touch of a cuppa and some biscuits.
Then came the even better bit, Miles arrived and looked after us faultlessly for nearly 3 hours. He was brilliant and a real credit to the place.
They cleaned out the pigs, made and fed the meerkats their food and then took them in to see all the reptiles.
Great few hours which our 7 year old daughter won't forget for a long while.
P.s well done Miles, you went the extra mile, because you like your job. We need a few more of you.

We went here while visiting st albans. This is a great little zoo with some wonderful animals where you can get quite close. We were very disappointed that while trying to listen to the wolf talk zoo staff and contractors were joking and swearing amongst themselves less than 10 metres from the talk. I found this very disrespectful especially when there was school children listening in. It was also disappointing considering staff around the rest of the zoo were so fantastic informative and passionate.

Had a day out with the other half and we both enjoyed it..clean and tidy.would say take a packed lunch as can get expensive..staff in shop great..went to get a drink at place and the girls behind counter was so slow all standing around waiting for chips instead of serving the next one or asking if anyone wanted drinks..but apart from that it was a good day out x

This was a great experience and day out with my class; although the place is extremely busy, there are still lots to see, do and watch. For example, the bug show, the Bird show etc.
The highlight for me was watching some of the animals being fed and for £1, you can feed the smaller animals yourself and the big ones too (with supervision of course). Hearing the Lion roar was excellent and luckily we managed to capture it. The children loved it.
There is a huge selection of animals and wildlife to see!
We brought our own packed lunches therefore i am unable to comment on the food, however, there are lots of seating dotted around for big groups and there is a cute chicken just roaming around the grounds.
I will be back with my family.

This is a lovely zoo. Lots of animals to see and they have a great soft play too. Recommend as a day out with family/friends. There is also a little park that has a fire engine and train. My 2 year old loves it!

An amazing array of animals. Superb landscapes with informative posting. Amusements and play area of all ages. Food is good quality and not badly priced for the portion.

We've visited here lots of time before. It's perfect for little kids as everything is so close to each other there's not too much of walking between the animals.
Having the numerous play areas dotted about is also great for getting rid of any excess energy.
We particularly loved the bird show. Always so informative and the birds are well trained and perform well. We especially love that they fly so close over you and walk around the barriers so you pretty much come face to face with them
Lovely day out for families

I go here a lot with my two sons as we have an annual pass. The have a great range of animals and great platforms to view them on. Whenever we go we always get amazing views of all the animals. There is also a great soft play. Prices of drinks and snacks is really expensive though. There is also a small splash park which my boys really enjoy. I haven't seen any of the shows yet myself but I have heard they are really good.

What an amazing experience. My daughter, who is 15, received this as a gift and had a truly memorable day. Jason, the photographer, was so knowledgeable and patient in sharing that knowledge with the whole group, whatever their level of experience/equipment. Lots of behind the scenes access, so thank you too to the keepers for making the group feel very welcome. My daughter has finished the day with much more photographic knowledge, some amazing images and enthused to carry on and improve.

We visited this week for a Tiger Tea experience and we had a great time. The park is full of child friendly activities and wonderful animals. We wondered the park at leisure in the morning and met up with Miles for our experience in the afternoon. Miles was a wonderful tour guide, knowledgeable about his animals and showing great love & appreciation for them. He guided us through the big cat enclosures with amazing knowledge of every animal answering all questions.
The afternoon tea was nice and it was a great end to our trip. The price was good as it included entrance to the park & our experience. We will be back with our children in the future.

I booked an experience as a surprise birthday gift and We had an excellent day shadowing Steve the monkey keeper at Paradise wildlife park.
Steve was great, had loads of knowledge about the monkeys and seemed to have a very good relationship with them which was great to see. Really enjoyed cleaning out the monkey enclosure, learning about the other monkeys in the park and our
favourite was feeding the red lemurs!
Well worth the money, and if it's going towards the facilities for the animals, then even more worth it!
The park itself had loads of facilities and we made a day of it, going round and seeing all of the different animals. (Including the wolves and woodland trail)
Food was good in the diner and overall really impressed.
Already booked to go back and do another experience.
Would recommend.

I booked this as a birthday present for my boyfriend and we both thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. We arrived in the morning to enjoy the park at our leisure before the experience and loved being able to get so close to the animals, especially the big cats. The guided tour part of the experience was fantastic and Miles was so knowledgeable and friendly and made the whole tour wonderful. The afternoon tea was lovely and being able to sit and enjoy it while sitting next to the tigers was brilliant. I would highly recommend this and would love to do it again.
