Fantastic range of pictures, even one of the millennium falcon landing at Jersey Airport. The lady was extremely helpful and is sending one picture in the post as we couldn't take it on our flight.

This is an amazing zoo, for one reason only 👍. You get a sense that the animals are very well looked after🙏. Their individual habitats really are tailor made for them, and the habitats are all so lush. The whole zoo is very lush and enjoyable to walk through. Some comments here suggest you can't see some of the animals very often, and I agree. However, we have to remind ourselves it's all about keeping them in a natural habitat as possible, and that sometimes means, the animals keep themselves out of sight of predators, us human beings 😰. Overall a great lovely zoo where the No1 priority is the welfare of the animals 👍👍. The staff are all excellent especially the volunteers wandering around answering visitors questions 👍👍. Plenty of toilets on the routes and very clean. Highly Recommend with 5stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We bought tickets online and got two buses from St Brelade's Bay.
When we arrived we were told that a couple of areas were going through maintenance so we may not see these animals.
We saw some fab animals though, including birds, gorillas, snakes, toads, flamingos etc. and a lovely volunteer that we got chatting to pointed out a couple of marmosets that we would have missed otherwise.
Overall, a great spot to visit.

A fantastic place. We had the best time! The Orangutans were amazing and came right up to us inside. I was a little bit gutted as the reptile house was closed the day I went but this gives me a good excuse to return.

The animals are amazing & the infographics for all of them are informative & eye-opening, there is so much to see.
We had a great time just wandering around & taking in all the sights & smells of the zoo, every part of it was amazing & I can't wait to go back!
If you book online there is a discount, so we'll worth booking in advance.
The bus journey is lovely & doesn't take too long to get there, & the buses are quite frequent.
Interesting zoo with a good variety of animals. Easy to park and walk around. Interesting story of how the zoo came about and Gerald's life. It was raining when we went so we didn't stay as long as we could have done.

Two words: GO HERE. Although called a zoo, the facility’s focus is a captive breeding program for endangered species, with many animals released back into the wild. Moreover, it doesn’t really look like a traditional zoo because there are so few cages, and those that exist are generally discreet and filled with lush island greenery, which includes such temperate trees as bamboo and palms. Interestingly, some species dwell onsite with no visible means of confinement. Red-breasted geese wander the green, and a colony of Silver Marmosets lives in the trees (they are presumably tied to the zoo by the lure of free room and board). Talks on various animals are available throughout the day, the life and work of the zoo founder Gerald Durrell is featured, and there are regular special exhibitions (a breathtaking Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibit was in-house when we visited). All told, we found our zoo experience fascinating. As for practicalities: although there is a large parking lot, we found it just as easy to get there by bus (service on the island is excellent). The zoo’s many paths are well maintained and seem to accommodate wheelchairs easily, but navigating from enclosure to enclosure can sometimes be challenging (more signposts at junctions would be welcome, the large map boards throughout the area would benefit from being exact rather than artistic, and the zoo map app available on entry seems to be more capable of describing what one is seeing rather than providing succinct details on how best to get to it). The gift shop is large and well stocked, the restaurant menu comprehensive, and there are numerous picnic tables and benches on the property. The best advice, though is to budget enough time to visit. Although one reviewer advised 4-5 hours onsite. We arrived early and before we knew it staff members were shutting the doors behind us after a seven hour visit!
