Paradise wildlife park in Broxbourne is a wonderful place to visit, with either young children, teenagers or just couples. The large selection of animals are well looked after. There is a large play area for children to play in, a train that goes through woods with dinasaurs in and a outside paddling pool for the summer. There is a large cafe with nice food. Well worth a visit, a whole day there is needed to enjoy the place

We enjoyed a lovely day out. The animals were easy to see and the layout gave opportunities for photographs which were not marred by wire mesh. Glass panels to the enclosures were clean and overhead walkways gave clear views into the pens. I have never been so close to big cats before ... The snow leopards were amazing. Thank you, we will be back.

Cute little wildlife park, great fun

Our family have been going to Paradise Park for years. It really is an amazing place with loads of great things to see and do.

We took my 2 daughters aged 5 and nearly 2 and my 2 nieces aged 8 on new yrs day. Had a really good day out. Some of the big cat enclosures seemed a bit on the small side but this is a conservation zoo and all keepers seemed very enthusiastic , knowledgeable and the animals well cared for. The park was well kept clean and tidy. All the kids loved the attractions and rides like soft play and slides. The train not running on our visit but a short tractor ride sufficed. The cafe was good value and food good. In the summer I might be inclined to take a picnic as I think the cafe could become very busy. All in all a great wildlife park and attraction.

If you want a place that will provide fun the whole day this is it. There are animals to see and feed, bouncy slide, playground, little train ride and woodland walk

An impromptu day out today. Surprised to see the park so quiet but great changes and new things to see. Happy to support this local wildlife park.

I bought this as gift for my husband. From the moment we arrived staff looked after us so friendly and helpful. Staff in discovery centre made us feel very welcome with a cup of warm tea on a cold winters morning thank you. The experience guy who we fed the meerkats was brilliant. He answered all my husbands questions about meerkats and made our experience one of a kind. The park itself so lovly. All animals are well looked after and great day out. Also got certificate and t shirt to take home. My husband said it was the best Xmas present. Thank you for making this possible. Looking forward to booking our next adventure St paradise wildlife Park.

Easy access to animals

I bought this experience for my girlfriend but it was for 2 people so I was fortunate enough to enjoy the experience as well. It was amazing, up close and personal with these beautiful animals. Our keeper was very knowledgable and gave us lots of great information about them. We were also given t shirts, a DVD and all day access to the park. Would recommend this or any of their experiences to anyone.

It is good for me

Small but excellent park

Love animal places, would go there every week if I could.

What a great day out, our reason for visiting was to see the big cats and we were not disappointed. But the rest of the zoo is not to be missed, we intended to stay a couple of hours and ended up there for 5 hours. Highlight of the day was seeing the white tiger being hand fed and the keepers giving us a running commentary as to what they were doing.

How many times have you been to the zoo only for the animals to stay hidden ?? Must have been our lucky day because although cold wet and foggy the big cats certainly were there to be seen. Tigers, lions cheetah, panther, snow leopard all were on best behaviour and happy to pose for the camera. Although relatively small compared with other zoos there was a nice mix of animals and we had a really good time. Took around three hours to see everything although I'm sure if it were warmer we would have spent more time. Liked this place and hope to return in the summer.

I was lucky enough to have the absolute pleasure of visiting this wonderful little park and I was bought the the "shadow a keeper" experience as a very special gift.

I can honestly say that this was one of the best experiences of my life. I went with my partner and daughter.

We spent two days at the park. The first day we were welcomed with a happy smile and a friendly greeting along with tea/coffee and biscuits by the lovely Margaret. Whilst munching and sipping, we watched a short film about the history of the park and to give us a tease of what we had in store! Margaret made us feel immediately like VIPs. We wandered around the park which is small but being winter the animals were all active. The size is by no means a negative though as the quality of the care and love these animals are getting is second to none - we experienced that first hand. This is a place where the animals are all either rescued or endangered and part of a breeding programme.

The park was very quiet, being December so we felt like we had it all to ourselves! It turned out to be a very good time to visit. There are activities for children, a shop, a lovely miniature golf course and various stalls around the zoo. You can also purchase special food which you can use to feed some of the animals with.

We spent the night on site in a lovely chalet. This was better than most hotels I have stayed in and the shower was the best I have ever used!

On the second day we had more tea and biscuits before beginning our Shadow a Big Cat Keeper experience. We met keeper Tony who was just wonderful. He is passionate, knowledgable and totally dedicated to his work and the animals. We helped with the enrichment of the big cats providing their toys and watching them play with them. We went into their enclosures and cleaned them out and were treated to five hours of extensive knowledge about the big cats as well as other animals around the zoo.

We were then allowed to feed them! We began with the lions and also fed the tigers, snow leopards and the ocelot. This was all absolutely magical and I can't recommend it highly enough. We also learnt a lot about conservation, breeding programmes and the behaviour of the big cats. We also got to see a training session of the white tiger. The keepers use only positive reinforcement and have been able to train the tiger to show his teeth and mouth for inspection, accept injections and present his belly for examination on demand and without a keeper needing to enter the enclosure or administer and sedative. The keepers have a wonderful and mutually respectful relationship with the cats.

Health and safety for both humans and cats was paramount at all times and we were closely monitored to ensure that this was adhered to at all times.

There is also a lovely bright restaurant which sells a huge variety of goodies and drinks by happy staff. Being December there was very tasteful Christmas music playing and lovely decorations.

I will never forget this experience - all made extra special by the happiness of the wonderful staff at Paradise Park. Tony could not have made more effort to make our experience the best possible.

Thank you, thank you, thank you :-)

This park deserves all the support it can get.

I had a pretty conceived idea about this place with turned out to be completely satisfied with wrong. For a start there are far more species of animals than I would have been thought. There is very little to criticise the here. Great to see the white tigers with are virtually all extinct the in the wild. A very enjoyable day.

Great day out for kids and adults alike!

Had a really enjoyable afternoon at Paradise wildlife park. Tea with the Tigers which involved a walking tour of the big cats with a guide before having afternoon tea in the Tiger top cafe. The guide, Ian, was fantastic, really informative and the tea was lovely

Could get very close to the animals

Had booked this experience for my husbands birthday present and just got round to doing it. Got to the park early so we could look round at all the animals. Being December freezing and foggy we thought that we wouldn't see any animals but we were pleasantly surprised. We met our guide Steve at 1.15,he took us over to the feeding room and showed us the meat they give the animals before asking my husband which big cat he'd like to feed. He chose Bakail a 5 yr old white tiger who was beautiful and huge, Steve showed my husband how to hold the meat and where to stand,safety was always top priority. Steve was very knowledgeable and very friendly all through the time we were there. Definitely a day to remember.

Absolutely brilliant day, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the day, especially feeding rocky the Tiger, an experience made even better by Lynn, one of the big cat staff. Her obvious love for the animals and insight into the everyday running of the cats and wolves made a fantastic day even better. All the staff were cheerful and helpful, we plan to return soon.

This was our 3rd visit to the Park. This time to Meet the Red Pandas and to Feed a Big Cat. Our day started off really well when we were very lucky to meet Giles Clark who was kind enough to chat and pose for photos. Our pre booked experiences were amazing and we loved every minute. Highly recommended.
A massive thank you to everyone involved in making our day special.
And to Baikal the white tiger, Jessie the snow leopard and Tilly and Teajmunn, the red Pandas for being so cooperative 😀x

It's good for kids, they might really enjoy it.

My daughter and I stayed overnight on the park this weekend and it was amazing. The apartment was clean, tidy and well equipped. We woke up to the chatter of some of the birds and animals but the best thing was the white lion roaring just before we left to go to breakfast with the big cats. We had a very enjoyable time watching the different wild cats and listening to the commentary. After breakfast we decided to have a walk around the wildlife park. We tried to go to all the talks, displays and shows (which we found very informative) Special mention to Claire and her birds. The day was finished off by watching the white tiger being fed. There is plenty to do at this attraction. I have been to other wildlife parks and I would say that this ranks as one of the best. This experience was an awesome 60th birthday present.
