We visited last October and had a lovely day out. The farm has quite a big selection of animals and they are all well kept..

The kids outdoor play area is very good too.

Had such an amazing day. The staff were really friendly and answered any questions we had. There wasn't as many animals as I would have liked but will go back in the summer when I would imagine there is more to see. I think paradise wildlife park treat the animals very well, upset to read other people felt differently. Lots to do if you have children. I will definitely be going back. Please don't be put off by negative reviews. Have lovely memories of the Penguins that we fed today, will definitely be doing another animal experience!

had a great time, loads to see and the staff were amazing. Great value for money. Really enjoyed the visit,

Just back from our third visit to Paradise and still really impressed with the park.

There was 3 of us today, myself and my 2 boys aged 4 and 2. We made use of a Groupon promotion valid even through half-term saving us £6 on the online price so £24 in total.

Being half-term and a nice sunny day the park was busy but not overcrowded, we always found space to watch the animals or for the boys to play on one of the numerous inflatables, slides or indoor soft play. The range of different activity areas is very good and you would pay a lot more if charged individually for the attractions.

It was a shame the Woodland Railway wasn't in action but 2 rides on Trevor the Tractor seemed to satisfy the boys(plus an ice cream even in February!).

Animal highlights were of course the lions, tigers and white tiger.

The park is nice and compact, easy to navigate and we look forward to visiting again as some building work is currently underway to further enhance the day out which we will definitely come and try when complete!

Thanks again Paradise for a good day trip!

Family visit to see the wildlife park, which has come up in the world over the last generation or so. It was a cold day but if you have a striped or spotted fur coat built in, it doesn't seem to matter. The personalities of many of the animals were quite easy to spot, especially as meal time approached. The keepers were obviously fond of their charges and the breeding programmes were carefully explained. The various monkeys and lemurs seemed well cared for and took an intelligent interest in us.
Gluten-free food available in the treetop eating house on request. Nothing like having your coffee while a tiger rolls on its back like a pussy-cat ten feet away.
Family visit - but 'Family (teens)' does not give the chance to explain that we were taken out by our daughter and her husband....
There are ramps for prams and wheelchairs and we saw one lift; there may be more.

Just wanted to say what a great time my husband and I had at PWP yesterday. We'd signed up for Tea with the Tigers and thanks to keeper Ian's enthusiasm for his big cats we had wonderful afternoon. He shared his passion and lots of information about the history of the zoo and it's involvement with all the breeding programmes and conservation work going on around the world. The animals all looked relaxed and in very good condition. We ended the experience with tea, sandwiches and cake served by a lovely lady (didn't catch her name) in the cafe by the tiger enclosure. All the staff were friendly and the zoo has a great vibe.

We visited the park with our 1 year old - we had the 'tea with the tigers' experience.

We arrived at the park at opening time and spent the morning looking around the park before our experience. We were very impressed by the facilities and the little touches. For example: Makaton signs around the park, a play area for disabled children and even toilet seats for children. The indoor and outdoor play areas were brilliant, lots to keep everyone happy.

The Cafe was a nice size and food was a bit expensive but not too over the top. The staff in the big cafe were very grumpy and seemed like they didn't want to be there at all. Also the staff looking after the animals didn't seem to want to talk to us - more iinterested in talking to each other. The volunteer man was lovely.

The animals appeared to be well looked after and enclosures an adequate size - After reading negative reviews I wasn't sure what to expect. Even though there were no giraffe or elephant there was still a nice variety of animals.

The experience was lovely and we felt very well looked after. The tour lady was briliant and the lady in the treetops cafe was very friendly and helpful. We did feel a little rushed to leave after eating as they were tidying tables and chairs around us. Was a little disappointed that everyone rushed in to get the best tables and we were stuck at the back with our 1 year ols who really wanted to see. Overall it was lovely - would have been disappointed if we paid full price for it though.

Would definetly visit again !

Our 3rd trip to Paradise and it never fails to disappoint. The quality of care for the animals is second to none, and with a myriad of wild cats to choose from it's an impressive offering. We always do the same route and stop for lunch in the Tiger Treetops cafe; delicious freshly made sandwiches in a wooden lodge hanging into the tiger enclosure. Always good for warming up on a cold day! On to the penguins, camels, zebra, wolves; to name but a few. Finally finishing up in the play area and then indoor soft play for a well earned cuppa! Everything is included in the price so it's great value for money - we managed to get a Groupon which gave half price entry, so worth keeping an eye out. We'll be back soon!

We have now nearly completed the fun of nurturing and assisting our three grand children through the process of growing up. It's taken 10 years and during that time we have done all the standard family day trips you would expect. One special attraction stands out in the crowd......Paradise Wildlife Park - Broxbourne. If you bear with me I'll attempt to explain why in the notes below.

As you can see the Park is in Broxbourne which is extremely easy to get to. Served equally well by train or car, the Park (PWP) is 10 minutes from Broxbourne station which itself is served by excellent services even on Sundays. PWP are thoughful enough to provide a free mini bus shuttle from the Station to the Park - Excellent !

Travelling by car is almost as straight forward a standard route would be via the M25 to Junction 25 then follow the A10 North as far as Turnford and the A1170. I think it is well sign posted with standard brown attraction sign posts but the sat Nav will guide you in.
PWP is in White Stubbs Lane which is worth a 15 minute walk jitself ust to take in all the forestry . There is ample parking on site with very large over flow car parks just 3 minutes away from the ticket box/ entry gates.

I was going to try to describe all the services and facilities available but that would take too long. This web link is the full story....this review will focus on the core of our actual experiences.

We have visited many times becausde we are lucky enough to live locally. Actually i grew up nearby and in the past I knew it was there but it was not a well developed Zoo. Over the years the owners have obviously invested and re-invested and PWP seems to get better and better year on year.

We usually arrive at around 11am and we park literally outside the ticket office. Ticket deals often appear on groupon et al but the best value is delivered via TESCO Vouchers. You do a four for one exchange on your vouchers with TESCO and receive vouchers which are spent as cash on arrival at the gate. Therefore during the 4 for 1 swap we spent £20 pounds of tesco vouchers and recived £80 to spend for all of our entrance fees on the day.

I am writing this on the fly so I doubt i will remeber everything but here is a min list of the things we did and saw

The indoor cafe - it was raining so we wnet in for coffee and biscuits standard high prices but a brilliant facility when the rain falls
The childrens softball climbing frame enclosure. - where else can you put the kids in a cage !!!!! they had a great time climibing chaing and diving around ...we enjoyed our drinks ....its not peaceful in there too many happy kids.

The train ride - a mini excursion - ten minute circular trip in the woods with dinosaurs and tigers and stufff - £1 each - kids love it ...so do I

The tractor ride - another mini excursion - great fun - free and an interesting mode of transport. 20 of you stuck in a covered trailer on the back of a tractor

The Zoo - Highlights
For all the following you get very close to the animals and soem excellent photography is very easily achieved.

White Lions - new baby two years ago - incredible - amazing how close we got to them.
Raised viewing galleries for the lions with an elevated cafe alos with views of the lions
Red Panda - Just thirty feet away perched in its tree merrily staring down at the nicely sized crowds
Penguins, Meerkats, Spiders and Insect sanctuary, and all manor of other creatures

When the sun came out the kids went for a mini swim and splash in the large paddling pool

There are entertainers putting on a little show every hour or so
A proper song and dance fun time for young and old
Feeding demonstrations - the lion feeding is an amazing sight.

There are animal feed stands £1 per bag which the kids always love.
There is the obligatory and pricey souvenir shop
And you can walk around both of the two halves of the park in less than two hours if you choose.

All in all PWP is EXcellent because
Great Value - especially using deals
Great Location
Brilliant animals and access visibility to animals
Excellent facilites for young and old alike
Excellent infastructure with a free mini bus to the Broxbourne Station
Plenty of places to stop and relax - eat a picnic - or take in a drink
Perfect day out for the family

I recommend PWP to everybody and wonder if you might find it is actually ..........................the BEST ZOO in BRITAIN !!

A really well laid out wildlife park and zoo. Not too big that it was exhausting. Plenty of animals to see especially the collection of big cats - white lions, white tiger, snow leopard and tigers. The high level walkway provides an excellent view of the lion and other enclosures. Cafe on the walkway was good. Plenty to do for children but well separated if you are looking for an 'adult' visit. We went in January and it makes a lovely day out on a sunny winter's day.

Was a lovely day and it was nice and quiet in January. Was surprised how many animals we got to see quite close up considering it was winter! Although it's a shame the Tiger feeding was so late in the day and there are no elephants or giraffes! Still a great day for family and photos and it holds many childhood memories.

We used a red letter voucher to go on a Wow tour which was great. The keeper that showed us round (Luke I think) was really engaging and informative and made our tour really great and we got to hold some cool animals too :). The zoo itself was a good size, the animals were all clearly loved and cared for and as a result all seemed happy. We would recommend going in with the Lorikeets if you get the chance,that's a very memorable and funny experience. All in all we had a great day,saw some lovely animals and would recommend this wildlife park to anyone who likes animals.

I love this attraction, the staff are all very friendly, very knowledgeable and their love for the animals they care for is evident.
Many of the animals looked like they were posing for their pictures, they were all amazing, I must also mention the bus driver for the park, a lovely man and very helpful.

Used my Tesco vouchers and as I work for NHS its half price for ID holder....so a very cheap day out compared to usual price. went with 2 children, another adult and senior citizen, we had a lovely time just after Christmas, and it was pretty quiet. spent 4 hours there and fed quite a few of the animals and saw the big cats being fed, kids also had hot chocolate and played in the soft play for 45 mins
a fun day had by all

you can easily spend the whole day there and still manage to nearly get locked in when you realise it's closing time . there two sides to the park. as you walk in, it is the play side. lot's of swings slides ect. then if you cross over then you start the animal side. it's a great size park with a fair amount of animals. they do different shows throughout the day so another bonus :) I can not fault this place. we have been a good few times now. and there tends to always be discount tickets available.

Booked, using vouchers, as a treat for other half. The main reason was to visit the National Speedway Museum. How disappointed were we, when, having been all round the park, seen the animals and chatted with some of the well informed keepers we found a notice on the door saying, due to staff illness the museum would not be open. On walking away, I spotted another notice that said 'If the museum is closed, please speak to a member of staff and they will open it for you'. Well I thought it worth a try :-). They did; within a few minutes a lovely lad, a member of the maintenance team, arrived to open up. At no time did we feel rushed and he allowed us plenty of time to look around. Okay, it's not huge, but there is loads to see. My other half used to ride at Rye House Speedway and so this was a fantastic 'treat' for him.
Thank you Paradise Wildlife Park for not disappointing in your customer service.
Would highly recommend a visit.

Even though the weather's so cold, this is still a great place to visit. You get up close to the animals and are pretty much guaranteed to catch a sighting of them. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. We're looking forward to going back soon.

Came here for my friends little boys 4th Birthday
He absoloutly Loved it :)
There was diggers, trains and animals, what isnt there for a 4 year old to like,

we didn't eat here but took out own picnic, there was plenty of places to sit and eat.

To be honest the entrance fee to the park is expensive, £20 per adult, unless you manage to get a Groupon ticket valid on the date your going (unfortunately i didn't).

But there is a shuttle bus that runs ever half hour for £1 each way, from Broxbourne Trainstation Right into the park :)

all in all it was a lovely lovely day out, id come here again, maybe in a few years or so.

First time at paradise park, easy to get around as everything quite close. Loved seeing the big cats close up but felt their enclosure were too small and feel it all needs updating. Very child friendly with play park , face painting, classroom etc. red pandas were lovely. Reptile house quite small but well laid out and quite a few different reptiles so worth a visit. Overall I had a nice day and would visit again just hope the big cats get more space very soon

Took my daughter for a wolf experience for my daughter s 21st .Brilliant time great value for the money. Keepers were really friendly, helpful,and went beyond the experience details to give e us a wonderful experience. They also spend a long time with us after the experience ended. Talking and having a hot drink. From the moment we went into reception we were given wonderful attention and made to feel special, even the owner spoke to us . N.b. we didn't know he was the owner at the time. After the experience we have the day round the wildlife park which has excellent facilities . Well done to all those involved, you made our time there very special. A big thank you to everyone

Lovely to see meerkats and red pandas as well as otters etc. less keen on seeing the big cats penned in, sometimes in a cage which seemed too small for them. Raised questions as to how much value zoos still offer in the world especially with programmes by the likes of David Attenborough on tv.

great place and well laid out to maximise space. highly recommended. Well organised for children and of course for adults

very expensive which puts me off visiting again unless i use vouchers! nice clean and tidy park, could do with more bins.

Great day out with the family. Really geared towards children but enough on offer to keep the "big children" happy... Well worth a revisit!

Fantastic Day Out! Well organised, Helpful Friendly Staff,Easy Access.
Got to go again!!
