Brilliant day out with the grandchildren. Lots to entertain everyone and reasonably priced. We would definitely visit again.

Young family enjoyed. Small park but done well. There is a small water play area so take costumes!

The park and zoo is fantastic. Definitely a good day with the family and the kids loved it. Staff was very friendly and helpful.<br><br>The animals at the zoo looked happy and well looked after. An educational walk around the zoo is a must.<br><br>Restaurants have a very long queue though. To avoid waiting long, we went to the Explorer's Cafe instead of the Oasis Cafe. I have to say that the Explorer's Cafe was the worst restaurant I have ever been to. The menu is is limited and the price is very expensive. I bought a whole cheese and tomato pizza for £13.95, the quality was so bad that I could immediately tell it was a £2 frozen pizza brought from Iceland. The tables seemed sticky and the lady who brought the food to our table seemed annoyed. The coffee shop next to the restaurant had a long queue as well. I waited more than half hour to be served.<br><br>Overall, definitely worth visiting, but best to take your own food and drink to avoid the restaurants.

We visited with four children - two aged 5 and two aged 8. They all really enjoyed it. I thought the older boys might not be impressed with the rides as much as the younger ones but they definitely seemed to. I’d say Drusillas is mainly aimed at younger children though. I think any older than around eight wouldn’t get the benefit from it. A lovely family day out though.

My daughter had a zoo keeper experience, she had such an enjoyable day she couldn’t stop talking about it. Simon the zoo keeper that looked after her was great she thought he was amazing.
Would really recommend this experience!

The 'Keeper for the Day' experience far surpassed our expectations and in the words of my 8yo daughter, 'it was the best day of my life'.
Our keeper Sam was absolutely amazing. He made us feel so welcome, was incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgeable and had such fantastic stories and facts to keep an 8yo (and parent) captivated.
Sam was an asset to Drusillas: we could really tell how much consideration, kindness and care goes into looking after your animals and wider conservation. We loved meeting so many different animals and hearing about their personalities, histories and the dynamics of the community within their enclosures. We have been to Drusillas countless times- it is a very well loved zoo for us- however the experience gave us a completely new perspective. It will be a memory which will last a lifetime and Sam has truly inspired our 8yo.
I would wholeheartedly recommend the day to all ages and my younger daughter (and husband!) are waiting in anticipation to become a Keeper for the Day for her 7th Birthday present later this year.

My 4 year old daughter adored the hello kitty car ride. My year old son thought the pepperoni pizza was the best he’d ever had. My 76 year old father appreciated all the well-placed benches. Everyone had a fantastic time in the sweltering sunshine. Even the young volunteer whose job it was to stand in a bat enclosure redolent with the stench of guano managed to keep a broad smile on his face, to his immense credit and my eternal admiration. A great experience and highly recommended!

Took my daughter to druscillas yesterday. She really enjoyed it. Staff were lovely and so many things to do. I was really impressed with the pricing in the gift shop, after going to some child places their items were reasonably priced. The one thing I would say is it would be nice if they had some shaded areas in the play parks like go wet.

Great day out, blessed to see some wonderful animals and information, though for some audiences there will not be enough focused on the animals, with large swathes given over to rides and adventure areas for kids. However, that's the nature of many places and it's all good and a superb family day out, highly recommended even during peak times. On site catering provision during Covid restrictions could have been done better, perhaps more staff or better use of the space available, it was very slow getting any food or drinks, which did detract from the overall experience. This should not be the case once restrictions fully lifted.
