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

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.

I had a voucher to shadow a big cat keeper with a friend and what an amazing day we had.. the park was lovely and clean with lovely facilities for food. The Keeper, Steve, who we shadowed was brilliant - so knowledgeable and engaging. It was clear he loves his job and the cats - they respond to his voice. To get up close and personal with some of these beautiful animals was amazing. Would definitely go back for another visit.

We live locally and visited for the second time with some friends. Paradise wildlife park is well laid out and the staff are very pleasant. The animals all seem happy and well cared for. The viewing areas are organised in such a way that you can get very close to the animals.

Nice selection of animals and birds, as well as other activities to do, both indoor and out. Well laid out with helpful staff. The only let down is you have to pay separately for parking and a number of the activities inside the park.

I would defiantly recommend this place to anyone with children. There is plenty for them to see and do as well as it being a nice drive out there.

Great little park

Good facilities and lots of different animals to see but potentially quite an expensive day out. Look out for discounts, vouchers and deals as a family of four at full price would be something like £60. Also a small fortune can be spent on food and kids rides once you're inside. Really good day out though.

My wife is a huge animal lover and has a soft spot for big cats. Whilst never going to be a fan of seeing animals caged, we are accepting the role of zoo's for education, conservation and breeding programmes.
This was a marvellous opportunity to get up close with tigers alongside an experienced member of the team (Lynn - thanks so much) who provided a wealth of information and background on the animals and their welfare. Somewhat nerve racking being so close to those huge jaws and paws but we still have all our fingers and now we have some wonderful memories.
Thank you to Lynn and all the team at Paradise Wildlife Park.

I do not approve of zoos etc, why keep animals in captivity for us to gawk at? However, a lot of the animals here are conservation, and the keepers genuinely care, so it's hard not to like it.

I came here recently with my fiancé for a big cat feeding we'd been bought as a present, and had such an amazing day.
The park is spread out well, but not so far that your feet hurt by the end of it. There's so much to see and do, and a great selection of animals to see and learn about.
Our feeding of the white lions was amazing, and the keeper 'Cassie' who we accompanied was so friendly and knowledgable it's clear that the staff here really love the animals.
The park is open all year, and we were told the animals are actually more active now than when they're basking in the summer sun, so I'd highly recommend this as an autumn/winter visit. Wrap up warm and take advantage of the park being quieter to have a truly wonderful day out with the animals!

We had the privilege of a magic tour which was beyond anything we could imagine. whole day was superb from being greeted to getting into our car exhausted but happy at the end of the day.
Our family of 3 fed meerkats, a camel called Bash, we got up close to my daughter's fav animals an ocelot called Billy and watched as he ate his chicken filled pumpkin!... a we had time with a keeper for over an hour and chatted with the big cat keepers too as my daughter loves all the big cats! so she had many questions for them. which they dutifully answered with such passion and enthusiasm that we really felt their love of the animals. We got up close and stroked (with supervision) a large snake and bearded dragons .. we must thank Miles for his knowledge and his patience and fascinating facts. we all enjoyed his time with us. We must also thank all the staff in the park for their compassion and care and total understanding for our daughter and her difficulties. We went through to see the woods which was really sweet too and I found it very relaxing. we were able to push our wheelchair around the whole park without any issues (even the wooded bits) .
We had lunch at Sam's Diner, which although wasn't my type of food it was tasty, well cooked and quite fine ... if not too many chips!.. (daddy and our daughter quite liked this though). Reasonably priced for the food we had too considering we were in a zoo. Everywhere we had refreshments they made great tea and coffee... even the little stalls which for me is an added bonus!. and great hot chocolate too according to my daughter.
The animals were all happily doing their own things and we saw lots of pumpkin fun as the animals were in playful form and it was halloween. We had the most superb day and it's one we won't forget.

A well presented and enjoyable wildlife park. However, they charge for parking on to of your entry fee, you also have to cough up more money to do many of the activities inside. We feltt this was misleading.

went with my husband for a day out, thought the zoo lay out was well planned and easy for families to get around in. The zoo felt a little compact as it was all very close together but was not as issue as we got to visit the monkeys and the lions multiple times.
We had the chance of getting up close to the lion in a small feeding area and staff told us about his history and relationships with the the other lions, was really nice hearing this.
The cafe has great views of the lions den so worth a visit for a coffee.
parking was fine
we bought our tickets online to get the advance rate discount.

Had an amazing day out! The place is great with lots to do with little ones! Huge play park, slides bouncy castles and lots lots more. We all really enjoyed it plus it's really well priced so not an expensive day out

This park appeared to be linked to the WHF facility in Kent which I have visited more than once and is more geared to animal conservation. This park is just a muddle of amusements and noise geared to children (to be fair it was half term) but the animals just seemed to be secondary to the rest of the very noisy pursuits in the grounds. The animals were in what appeared to be very small enclosures and looked very stressed pacing the perimeters. I am sorry but I don't think this is right in this day and age. Please rethink this form of "side show" and consider the animals wellbeing.
