Paradise Wildlife Park
Latest Reviews
Visited in a group of adults and despite the zoo being relatively small ended up spending over 4 hours there looking at the animals (& the dinosaurs! - the dinosaur theme park is worthy of being an attraction all on its own). For kids it must be great, with different play areas. The big cats were really impressive and the sun bears a joy to watch. Some qualms though. Whilst all the animals looked well cared for and many seemed happy in their habitat (particularly the sun bears), some I felt were too constrained. For example the two Zebras looked particularly sad and the penguin enclosure is the smallest I've seen at a zoo. Also the need for keeping a sole red deer in a muddy paddock was not apparent. If people want to see red deer, go to Knebworth or somewhere & see them in a free environment. But overall a great day out.

Park was good, but had to pay extra for train around dinosaur land. They have built new enclosure which was very good. Bought food from safari shack it was expensive and inedible, take your own if you can. You have to buy tickets in advance which can be a mistake with rain all day but waited it out then saw red panda, lions, tigers and bears when rain stopped, which made the day worth it.

Much better since the 3 guys took over a few years ago as it was a bit flat before....not much walking involved which is a plus as you can see all animals within reasonable time

Not the biggest zoo being quite compact. This was fine for us as we took the grandchildren for a day out so not far to walk between animals. A fair variety of animals. A good number of benches to sit down and eat at, with some under cover. For the grandchildren there was good play areas for them.

Absolutely incredible wildlife park, the dinosaur experience was far beyond what I imagined and the park overall is just a fantastic exhibit of what parks should be like, will be returning.

Groot park. Gevarieerd. Sommige attracties moet je extra betalen. Dinosaurus tuin. Dierentuin. Speel gelegenheden. Horeca. Gratis parkeren.

We’ve visited here many times over the years and always enjoyed ourselves and this visit was no different. As it’s family run, they go to more effort to make sure you enjoy your visit. Everyone is friendly and helpful. We’ll definitely be returning.

Really enjoyable visit. Came for the day without kids and had a nice time. It wasn’t too busy or crowded at any point. Plenty of toilets dotted throughout the park. The food options seemed good and varied, and there were plenty of picnic tables and benches to sit on with your own food as well.
Some of the habitats are great - we particular loved the sun bears. They were so fun to watch! Others seemed a bit small and lacking and made us uncomfortable. I do hope they continue to update throughout and improve this.
I also had the red panda feeding experience which was delightful. The keeper who accompanied me was really lovely to talk to and I enjoyed asking her questions. I wish the experience could have been longer but I suppose with only one panda at the moment who isn’t bothered by bamboo, it was bound to be a bit short.
Overall a lovely visit.

Great zoo, great staff and a good day out for the family. Loads to do including a splash park for hot days and children's park & slides to keep the little ones entertained after seeing all the wonderful animals.

I’ve not been to Paradise Park for probably around 25 years and the memories I have from back then absolutely do not match up to what I experienced this weekend!
There is tons for the family to do. We arrived around half 10 and didn’t see our first animal until nearly 1, but that’s not a bad thing. The kids were in love with all the splash pool, play areas, the World of Dinosaurs, mini golf, more play areas and more. When we finally made our way to the animals we again wasn’t disappointed. We’ve been to a number of wildlife parks now and outside of the big ones (like London/Chester Zoo) here was easily the best so far. The park isn’t absolutely sprawling so you’re walking for miles but every area has a really good amount of space. The animals that we did see all looked very happy and comfortable, but unfortunately for us a lot of them were a bit too shy to come out and play. There is absolutely tons of interactive elements to most of the animals enclosures so the kids were never short of something to do between animals.
Food and drinks wasn’t too badly priced either.
I guess you could argue that the Paradise Park of today is a bit like the ship of theseus… So much has changed, is it even the same place it once was? The literal only thing I could spot that hadn’t been changed or removed was the red Dennis firetruck in the play area.
