Gets very busy on the weekend and school holidays but that is to be expected. Some amazing animals to be seen and lovely for a "something different to do" day out.

Great little zoo. Best for kids and younger families.

Definitely have to bring a camera if you go, as even though the park sells items such as sunglasses and zip pulls, they don't have any sort of camera. If you bring one, you'd be able to capture and save momentous animals as Boa Constrictors, Chinese Alligators, Lions, Cheetahs, Tigers and many more on your cameras/phones. The gift shop is stuffed full of items such as mugs, stuffed animals and pens and pencils. A great place to spend time with your family, and the food is also great. 11/10! There are also animal feeds that you don't want to miss.

The best place ever seen in the UK

Went to the Park today. Didn't take long to walk around and it was really noisy with lots of groups of school children. What happened to "children should be seen and not heard"!! Animals looked in good condition but obviously not happy with being locked up and some enclosures didn't look nearly big enough. They are renovating the otter enclosure so nothing to see there. Why not do it out of season? Parking spaces are pathetically small and really need to be re-done. Plenty for kids to do but if you are only there to see the animals it won't take you more than 1.5 hours to go round. we read lots of reviews before we went and had a 2 for 1 voucher so didn't pay full price - not sure if I would have done. It came highly recommended by someone we met on a photography course at Woburn Safari Park. After being driven around Woburn off piste with a photographer and a keeper I guess we were spoilt and Paradise had a lot to live up to.

Whenever I have seen otters before they have always been hiding and you were lucky to catch them - the same with the lions. Here the otters were running along in a line, following each other and looking like they were enjoying themselves. Although not as active, the white lions were sat on top of a rock two metres away. Another big cat looked as though it was coming right at us - spared by the Perspex. A conservational talk we attended was brilliantly executed by Emma, just the right length with just the right amount of fun. A special treat for the children was feeding the Lorikeets with nectar - the adults seem to get the pecking and poop. We finished up at the playground for a jam packed day.

We had a great day here. Only thing is please have someone around when young children are in the park, we were viewing the repltiles when at least 20 children ran in screaming and banging on the glass, we had to get out and come back later on, felt sorry for the poor animals trying to sleep, apart from that a great day out

Went to paradise wildlife park last week taking a 3 1/2 year old. He loved it! The indoor play area was great and it took a while to get him away from it to see the animals. Once we did he enjoyed seeing all the different animals. We enjoyed it as well, will be returning.

although this is not one of the bigger zoo's around, it has a fantastic collection of animals. There is plenty for the kids to do, and the speedway museum is really good

Walking slowly around the park, reading about all the fate of the future of these animals, makes you realise we need
to do something to safeguard them.
White Tigers, Snow leooards are top of the list but....spend 30 minutes with the Meercats or any other animals ( penguins, lemurs) and you realise what a great job is being done by this amazing place.
It is in need of refurbishment in places, but I for one am happy to see the money spent on the animals.
It is not expensive, is fantastic for kids and adults alike.
Take the time to see everything and go back...as I will....

whilst not outstanding, there is a lot for children to do here. Some of the animal enclosures were small.. We come from Kent and are used to the wonderful natural and large areas devoted to the animals at the Aspinall parks of Port Lympne and Howletts. Some of the enclosures at Paradise were overcrowded and the animals looked bored. Food on offer was the usual uninspiring burgers and chips, pizzas etc which were well cooked but uninspiring.
The park is well designed and fairly small so not overwhelming.
Enjoyable day but the sad expression on the white lions face haunted me for some time..

We have been to this zoo quite a lot now and although not a lot has change it is still a very pleasant park. We saw the white lions and white tiger in the their houses so they were very close to us and we got an amazing view. Some of the enclosures are a bit small particularly the lions and snow leopards and we felt a bit sorry for them. There are a lot of feeding times and talks so you can get a better view (not that you need one) and see the animals being fed however nobody turned up to the red panda feeding. We also saw the tigers being given cow skin, not that we minded however the keepers were handling it with their bear hands and had no type of gloves on which we thought was disgusting.
Overall we had a nice day however please get some gloves for your staff its not much to ask.

Me & my partner have been here twice now, we love the fact that you can get up close to the animals & even feed them, we stroked & fed zebras, tapirs, deer, alpacas, ouessant sheep, reindeer & small deer. The bird enclosure was good, loved the crow(well intelligent, I called it over & it came & I spoke to it lol & he squawked back at me ha ha) the cara cara was fascinating, a bit like the crow. The black ouessant ram called Patrick is always my highlight on visiting the park, i love stroking n fussing him but he gets a bit rude by reversing up then charging at the metal fence with a loud 'bang' at you lol, I do love him though :)
There's the Treetop Café where you can grab a cuppa & bite to eat then go & sit right at the main big window & watch the Tiger feeding where the keeper throws a massive bit of meat up on a big wooden ledge then lets the tigers out & feed, its close to watch & a great experience.
There's a wildlife walk where you can see the deer & there's a wolf trail where you can see them in an enclosure, there's a main stage where they put on performances for the kids & a big play area too. Plenty to do all day long.
I will be visiting again in the future as its a great day out for families & couples too.

We had a great day out with our friends and their three year old daughter. The park is big enough to house some wonderful animals but small enough to keep a young child happy. The set up is really well thought out and the tiger top cafe was the highlight of the day. Not only was the view of the enclosure magnificent but Sally, who works there gave us lots of interesting facts about the lions and tigers and the breeding programmes. She taught us all something new. This is a great day out for anyone with young children but equally enjoyable for adults who are still young at heart.

Check out their feeding time! We got the opportunity to feed the lorikeets and see them feeding the big cats.
They also have friendly macaws and parrots who can say Hello!
It's best to bring your own food as the burger/sandwich weren't that great. They also have picnic spots.

Visited the Park with partner for a 'Feed the Meerkats' experience bought as a present. Arrived as arranged around 3pm for our 3.15pm appointment. The young lady on the desk was helpful and welcoming and explained that we may have the experience on our own or with another couple just depended on the animals and what were on show and which were on rest days. Served us tea/coffee and biscuits while we waited and suggested we had a quick look around the exotic birds just outside the Discovery Centre. We did that and then were off on our 'experience'. We were lucky to share our experience on our own and 5 darling meerkats who we fed and then stroked and cuddled. They were so tame and very cheeky - climbing on our laps and shoulders. The member of staff was knowledgeable and pleasant. We were invited to enjoy the rest of the afternoon in the park free of charge and given a gift of a t shirt and certificate. What a great afternoon - just wished we had arrived earlier and spent more time in the park. Now looking to buy another experience !! Fancy feeding the lemurs or red pandas next ! Parking immense and refreshments good and plentiful - not sure of prices as we got a free entry with experience BUT wait for special offers on the experience through BuyaGift or similar otherwise £168 for two which is a tad expensive (experience itself only lasts 30mins) - think we paid about £80 for two which was good value. They do sell the experiences on their website but on checking I believe they are more expensive than through a company on line who speciallises in this type of experience.
