Such a nice park and great fun for a full day. We have an annual membership and we go as much as we can and is always great fun, it has a bit of everything and that makes all the difference!

Drusillas is in a league of its own! My children have been members for 4 years and they are still not tired of it. Excellent standards of customer service and plenty of fun, young and older children love it here. I have always been impressed by the staff who are so kind to children and happy to help, whatever the problem. I will be very sad when my kids are too old for this place, it holds many happy memories for me.

This is one of the best zoos I have been to. It has a large selection of animals (lots of monkeys,birds and other small creatures. It has less of the big sights such as giraffes and elephants but what you can see is great. The animals seem happy and the enclosures allow you to see them quite close up. They have great rides here for very young children which you can ride on for free included in your ticket price. Heres also a great play park. There were a few things closed due to covid but I can see they are doing a great job of managing with restrictions. The staff were also very lovely. I can't wait to go back in the summer and see everything again and hopefully more. Would recommend.

Drusillas Park is a wonderful Zoo.
The animals were roaming about their enclosures and all seemed happy.
The staff are all positive and friendly and following covid guidelines.
I have been to 3 zoos so far and this has been my favorite.
They have a typical zoo... a farm "zoo" where you can touch the animals if you wish... a play park and a small wet play park area... a number of rides for children including a hello kitty track car ride, a carrousel, tea cups, a hippo ride a cheta ride and a ride on train...
The explorer café food was very nice and a Starbucks..
Very fun day out with the little man.

I don't normally like zoos but it was brilliant. Well kept enclosures, lots of marmoset monkeys with their young, and some animals I'd never seen before such as beavers and binturong and hyrax.

Great day out & really good value for money. Plenty of shelter when it rains too

Remember to book online! Great fun day as a family. The Zoo is great, the animals are to be seen up close and they are very lively, not afraid and sometimes even interact with visitors. The social distancing could be challenging at times but at least you are outdoors. You can wash your hand in multiple stations and you have sanitizers every corner. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The playgrounds are fun too. Plenty of stuff to eat and buy as souvenir. Recommend it definetely.

Great day out with my husband and 9 year old son. Was very well planned out due to coronavirus. Animals were very well cared for. The park was amazing and the little rides are a bonus for younger children. Even though my son enjoyed the cheetah ride and carousel.

Best park in the South-East!
Absolutely amazing place, visited in the school holidays with our 4 & 8 year old children.
We spent 7 hours here but could easily have stayed longer. Really well organised, felt really safe with Covid restrictions in place.
The zoo was a highlight for us, all the animals were extremely well looked after. Mark the Zoo Manager was extremely knowledgeable and spent time telling us about each animal, the children were fascinated. All the staff were more than happy to help and were really enthusiastic.
Great play areas and rides with a good mix for both school aged and pre-school children ( and adults!)
Nice restaurant and places to get snacks and coffee at really reasonable prices!
One of the best days out we have ever had...Our children are still talking about it weeks later, can’t wait to go again! 😊

We visited during the covid restrictions, the staff were working hard to keep all surfaces safe which really put us all at ease.
The zoo is really good for all generations, the animals all looked well looked after and very interactive with the visitors, there is so much to see you will need to spend a whole day going around as there is so much to see.
Everyone in our group thought it was one of the best places we had ever visited and I must also praise all the staff for there friendly faces and their hard work making our visit so enjoyable.

Drusillas is ok if you have children under 4 or 5. We took our 16 month old here on monday 19th oct. We knew she could only go on a few rides which was fine with us and great for her first experience with rides. She did love them and the few animals it has. I understand why the owners wish to cut back on staff during the week when it’s quiet so they can pocket more money for their Christmas booze. But the staggering of times for rides makes the waiting so much longer. Especially if the operator is late getting to the other ride and then you try get to the other ride in that time slot and approach the rides with 3 minutes left in the slot to be told its closed until the following hours slot. Was little frustrating but luckily at 16months our daughter wouldn’t understand, still not good practice though... The cafes are disgustingly overpriced and we didn’t purchase any food at all. The prices are more then anywhere ive seen of similar places.
I do feel they could have more animals maybe. I dont get the new dinosaur bit. Kinda unnecessary but hey ho maybe another ride or animals instead... £19 advanced ticket is a fair bit but overall we thought wasnt a bad day out. Think £16/17 is ample and especially when its same price for a child over2. Kinda feel children should be reduced rate... £23:50 on the day is extortionate.
As said was a good day out and good to take our daughter on her first rides. But feel prices maybe should be slightly lower.
We are around 1hr45 mins away and similar from cotswold wildlife which has no rides But is only around £16 and is massive zoo. We can take her to kids rides for £1 each at nearby leisure park near the sea..
Also staff were very friendly

My daughter participated in a penguin feeding experience- she absolutely loved it. The zoo keeper went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time! She was enthusiastic and incredibly knowledgeable. All of the Drusillas staff were very helpful.
I would highly recommend an animal encounter experience.

I took my nearly 5yr old daughter to Drusillas a few weeks ago, and she is still talking about. She squealed on the carousel, beamed that she was tall enough to go on the Hippo Ride all by herself, and stuck her tongue out at the snake! We rated Jurassic Jungle a 10/10, as it had a few surprises (I won't spoil it...), and she tells me her favourite animal is a penguin! They all swam up close to her and her reaction was adorable.
We had such a lovely day together, and made lots of precious memories during these strange times. I was impressed with the amount of thought that had gone into the Covid-19 circumstances, and felt very protected. Everyone was being sensible and enjoying themselves.
Well done Drusillas! We will be back!
