We love visiting Paradise Wildlife Park, definitely one of our favourite days out.
We've visited loads of times over the years and - as the Park develops constantly - there are always fascinating things to do and see.
I particularly love the big cats and my daughter is obsessed with wolves so we are in our element. The staff have been fantastic, offering help and advise with her recent school project and have gone that extra mile to support her.
We've also adopted red pandas and booked an animal experience for this year.

The animals all seem to be happy and have plenty of space and care.

Can't recommend it highly enough!

Graham and I took the grandchildren Cameron aged 11 and Lucy who is 9, here yesterday. We all had a really great time (and to be honest Graham and I didn't think we would really - it was a trip for the kids). Plenty of places to eat either snacks or bbq food or you can take your own. The staff put on shows/quizzes on the little stage in which the children can join in. There's a lovely play area for the kids which Lucy spent an hour in and there were slides and other things suitable for her age group. There were bouncy castles, other play stuff and a splash pool for younger children. The four of us then went round the animal enclosure. I've never really understood what people would get from going on a safari but now I understand!! The animals have so much space and such a variety from white lions, camels, smaller animals that children can feed eg goats and sheep to meercats. An emu ate from the palm of my hand, its beak is rounded so it didn't hurt. I then fed a reindeer, whose lips felt like soft velvet on my hand. One of the tigers came right up to a fence and we were so close to it. There are keepers around who obviously love the animals and are happy to engage with the children. We spent ages ages going round. We rounded the day off with a game of adventure golf on their excellent 18 hole course. We just about finished by 6.00 when the park closed. We went home weary but oh so pleased to have visited. Truly a place for the young and not so young.

The zoo sell bags of animal feed at £1 each. You have to watch out for signs as only certain animals can eat this food.

I've just spotted a review from a woman who says she 'felt sorry for the white tiger because its enclosure is increadibly small' She couldn't have seen all the walkways and tunnels that all the animals seemed to be able to access in their own particular enclosure.

All Iknow is, we had a really good day - the sun shining all day was a bonus!!

It's impossible to write a review that covers all aspects, because the number of attractions is so enormous. Sufficient to say that any child of any age will find lots of fun things to do here there's so much parkland play equipment. We went to visit the zoo. Both of us are professional scientists, so we're interested the the standard of the collections, the way the animals are displayed, the information provided, and the contribution to conservation and breeding programmes. On all of these accounts I would rate Paradise Wildlife Park excellent. The strongly attractive aspects of the zoo collection are these: the animals are housed in excellent conditions, with plenty of space; animals and their enclosures are kept very clean - no "zoo smells" here; all the animals are happy, who love being looked after by highly professional keepers. We paid extra to have a special tour (experience) with a zookeeper. She was with the group (two dozen) for at least two hours, and gave fascinating insights into the animals. The strong collections here are tigers, small primates, some farmyard animals, animals that kids like to see in picture books (zebra, camels, that sort of thing), there's a gorgeous reptile house where the snakes and easy to see and very nicely displayed. The venue has the standard sorts of catering one gets at this kind of attraction in England, plus a good souvenir shop, an adequate tea room, plenty of picnic space, plenty of outdoor seating. Some of the animals are displayed publicly at a set time. I loved the owls, for example. Unusually for a zoo, there are a few animals for which you can buy some tid bits of food, and let the children feed by hand - we saw this being done with zebra. We won't hesitate to go here again as a larger group. We'd like to take our grandchild who lives in France. The entrance fee seems high (a party of two adults and three children will pay about £75) but the running costs are £8500 a day, 365 days of the year. The entrance fee includes 20% VAT. The Park receives no grants or subsidies from public funds

First time of being here and will defo be returning. Don't know why i haven't been here before!!! Great variety of animals, lovely staff members who actually engaged with the children when they spoke to them, lovely play area and the splash pool is great for a quick dip. Pleased the carpark is close to pop back for picnic bag. Overall excellent and fun.

Paradise Wildlife Park is wonderful day out for everyone. This is different from other Animal Parks open to the public. You can get much closer to the animals with some really great views from walkways and balconies. They are also part of the Wildlife Heritage Foundation so are big on conservation and really care for the animals who have great enclosures. The keepers are really friendly and informative and you can see, dedicated to what they do. There is also a very personal feel about the Park. So, if you want a great day out with the Kids (as well as seeing the animals, there are lots of facilities and activities for them) or to learn more interesting information about animals and get some really good photographs, this is the place to go. They also offer wonderful experiences. We have been to park on a general days out, but have also had the opportunity to feed the big cats and shadow a big at keeper which was amazing. If you love cats, these are the most fantastic experiences.

I visited for the first time at the beginning of the month.
It was a nice sized park with a lot of animals.
I liked that most of the play areas were on the opposite side of the park to the animals as it was a lot more peaceful walking round.

Most of the animals were easy to spot (didn't see the wolves unfortunately) but the enclosures are a good size and there are places for the animals to hide away from visitors if they want.

I felt quite uncomfortable around the white tigers. Nothing personal against the individual animals but it's hard to watch them knowing their genetic history.
I'm hoping white lions don't end up the same way. The cub was gorgeous and a real daddy's girl but I do hope the park (and WHF) is very careful about how they breed these animals.

It was a good day out. We only had a limited amount of time but next time we'll spend the whole day there!

I ordered our tickets on line which was cheaper.
They have rearrange and updated the parking and some of the attractions.
We enjoyed the displays, talks and demonstrations.

They had a cafe which looked out on the Tiger which was fab!

If you're in to big cats it is a great place to visit. The white tiger cup stole the show.
The big cat talk was really great, the chap was very knowledgeable and friendly. Forget his name, sorry!

The place was wheelchair friendly with access to most high view points by ramp.

The parks has a paddling pool for young children

We spent all day there and enjoyed every minute.

Next time I go I'll consider one of there ' experiences ' like, follow a keeper or feed a tiger etc

Visited a few weeks ago with our 1 year old, had a lovely day out, loved looking at the big cats and the other animals...our little one enjoyed the tumble jungle and the playground so everyone happy will definitely be back soon!

I took my children to paradise wildlife park a few months back and it's a lovely little place. You have the opportunity to purchase food so the children can feed Zebra,reindeer,and farm animals. All the animals are easy to see for young children and it isn't too hard to find your way around. The shop is very reasonably priced and overall we had a lovely time.

Had very good day out granddaughter found it amazing a really good day out for all the family and friends have recommend to a couple of friends and they have been too

I have been coming to Paradise Wildlife Park for 20 years now and it just gets better and better. The staff are brilliant there, so friendly and informative, in all the years I have been going there, they have always been great. Last time I went, I was lucky enough to see a member of staff training the cheetahs, it was incredible to watch and I would love to see that again!

There is a huge variety of animals; Penguins, Meerkats, Lions, White Tigers, Wolves, Leopards and so many more. There are many birds of prey, reptiles and there is even a Bat cave which you can go inside. You could never be disappointed by the amount of animals there are and they are all so easy to get a really good look at. One of my favourite things is the Lorikeet enclosure which you can walk through, you pay for a cup of nectar and go in and all the birds come and land on you, which is such a lovely experience and they are beautiful birds. There really is so much to do, with plenty of shows and you can also see the big cats getting fed. A big hit with kids, is always the petting farm and you can pay £1 for a bag of food to feed the Pigs, Goats and Sheep.

The zoo is always spotless and has a restaurant with a nice place to sit and eat outside too. There are also plenty of little outlets around the zoo, selling food and drink. There is a wonderful giftshop and a great play area and mini arcade bit for the children, which as a child, I absolutely loved. There is also a crazy golf course, which I think you pay extra for, but is still a nice addition. It is very easy to get around as it is so well mapped and sign posted.

You can also do many experiences; such as feeding Tigers or if you're feeling less daring, maybe feeding and meeting the Meerkats or a Red Pandas. You can also do other experiences, like shadowing a keeper for the day. The choice really is endless and I hope to do one of them one day!

There are so many things to do and see at Paradise Wildlife Park, whenever I go there, I stay there for hours. Definitely one of my favourite places to visit. I couldn't recommend it more!

Paradise Wildlife Park is a wonderful day out with a great variety of things to do for all ages! I visited with my two year old niece and she loved seeing all the animals, but there was also lots of other things to entertain her such as the outdoor playground, soft play area, train ride, bouncy castle, paddling pool etc.

I have also visited a few times with my friends and we have enjoyed the keeper talks and animal feeds which are very interesting and informative. You can tell that the keepers are very passionate about their work and have a wonderful relationship with the animals in their care. It is also great to see the work they do towards conservation. All of the animals look very content and healthy and have lovely enclosures. The enclosures are well designed for the animals and also well thought out for visitors to enjoy seeing the animals. As a wildlife photographer enthusiast this is a great place to visit to see a great collection of big cats and other favourites like red pandas, otters and wolves! I look forward to visiting many more times in the future!

Expected to go here for a few hours and ended up being chased out by the tigers! Superb place. Can't believe how close you get to the cats!

Have been to Paradise on 4 occasions and have never been disapointed!

if you are a fan of big cats this is the place to go, you can get up close to white tigers, white lions, Amur tigers, Sumatran tigers, African lions, snow leopards, leopards, cheetahs and ocelots. they also have penguins, meerkats, monkeys, gibbons, lemurs, zebras, tapirs, wolves, wallabies, reptiles, birds and so much more!

The staff have always been very friendly and helpful, and gladly answer any questions myself or the children have about the animals,

we usually take the train from London which is easy enough and the fantastic mini bus that collects you from the station ant takes you right to the park is excellent.

In the summer months when it is hot the outdoor paddling pool is a Godsend to cool down.

overall i would recommend Paradise wildlife park to all ages, and it is soo much better than London zoo!

A great place for animal lovers, especially those who like big cats!

Saw a ginormous Tiger that was so majestic and elegant, as well as a Large Lion and Lioness at feeding time! I had never realized how strong their jaws must be till I heard them on the meat!

There is a great variety of wonderful animals to see, lots of special birds, smaller animals like Meerkats, as well as some wolves and more!

I love it here, I have been visiting at least 3 times a year for the last 6 years. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming, not to mention the white bird who always says hello!. There is so much to do, we are never bored and easily spend all day here. We always time our visit so we get to see the tigers getting fed. Its amazing all the different tyoes of big cats. Its a beautiful setting and always so clean and tidy I can not fault it. Make sure you visit!!

Me and my family visited Paradise Wildlife Park and had a great day out. My family and myself had a lovely day and there is a variety of different types of animals.

Today was our second visit to Paradise and as we live nearly 150 miles away its not just a quick visit. What a beautiful park, it is kept immaculately, and all the staff are so friendly and informative. I have been lucky on my two visits to the park to "Shadow a Big Cat Keeper" ......wow it is without doubt an amazing experience to get up close and personal with big cats. Last year I hand fed Rocky the Tiger and today I hand fed Moto the Lion.......I cant tell you how incredible it is to get so close to these magnificent creatures and learn all about them first hand, and the Staff are amazing, they really take a pride in what they do... they work long hours and show a remarkable passion for the animals in their care, they are so knowledgeable about all the animals and they all have a wonderful rapport with them......its amazing to hear the keeper just call to the beautiful white tiger Bakail and he comes right up close to the fence to see him.........amazing. This just goes to prove how well cared for and well looked after they are. I have learnt so much about big cats from my visits to Paradise, and today was lucky to see the Jaguar Ares.......a stunning big cat. Another special moment from my day was feeding the young wolves by hand.....We saw these as cubs last year when they were three months old....how they have grown. Do not hesitate to go to Paradise Wildlife Park in Broxbourne, its awesome.

Our family love Paradise Wildlife Park, we have been going for 7 years and have had annual memberships for that length of time. There is so much to do eg. the pool, soft play, outdoor playground areas, the train, go-karts, golf as well as seeing the animals. Over the years we have got to talk to the keepers and they are so informative and all have a real passion for the animals that they care for and often going above and beyond what is expected of them.
I can't recommend the place highly enough although my one critisism would be the car park spaces could do with being bigger.

I visited the park in April after my partner bought me a red pander encounter.
we got to the park around 10 in time for the opening and found that very few people had shown yet....this made the start of visit better than expected. We found that even when the park got a little busier the number of viewing areas around all of the cages/pens meant we had no trouble seeing the animal's and getting some great pictures.
We attend the cheater talk and was amazing to see the keepers get up close and have so much interaction with animals that could cause so much harm if they wanted to!
However the best was saved till last, we was met at the visitor's centre by our animal handle who took us over to prepare the food and explained the diets of all 3 Red pandas and the reasons behind why the specific diets for each. we were then taken out to the enclosure and told what to expect and introduced to all three and were shown some of the techniques used for training these beautiful animals, our handler was very good and kept us so informed.
What an amazing experience it was to have meet Tej, Tilly and Roz and is even better that we were discussing the possibility of babies during the visit not knowing that tilly was carrying cubs all along! Congrats to paradise on the births of the new babies, we cannot wait to get back that there to see them...aiming to go within the next few as it was so good so we can take our nephews and they can experience it to. We attended another experience recently and it didnt have a patch on paradise highly recommended

Paradise is very small in terms of animals - we went round twice in under three hours and got some great views of most of the animals. There also appears to be a great selection of animal experiences if you want that sort of thing. Much of the park, however, is given over to rides and play areas for smaller kids.
In short it's a great zoo for small children with short attention spans but not so good for teens and adults wanting to see a lot of animals. Having said that if you are a big cat fan then still very much worth the visit as the views are great but go outside school holidays if you can if the noise of screaming kiddies spoils things for you. My teenage daughter and I did get a little fed up of unrestrained children screaming at the animals but fortunately the animals themselves seem used to it all!

it was a very good experience, very organized, it was fun day out, I would recommend it to all my friends and I would definitely go back.

Paradise was a very good day out even if we did get soaked to the bone. Animals are happy and healthy and you can get the chance to see them being fed. Paddling pool, face painting, and playgrounds for the kids to do. As well as soft play all included in the ticket price. Great day will definately be back.

I absolutely love Paradise! There are plenty of things to do and see (for all ages). The animals are well looked after and the keepers really know their stuff and are extremely friendly.

Paradise also hold great special events. For example Mother's Day packages, pamper days, education visits with special guest and what I am looking forward to the most Tigerthon :)

So all in all Paradise is a great day out and I would recommend to everyone and anyone!

I love Paradise Wildlife Park! It has so much to do for the whole family.. I am always recommending paradise wildlife park to friends and family.. I am hoping to go again very soon! If i lived closer i would probably be there every weekend!
