This is possibly one of the best zoo's we have visited in a long time! They have put a lot of time and effort into everything they do and the care for their animals is exceptional. We were welcomed by Aaron, who spent his valuable time taking us around the zoo and providing some invaluable advice to us as a fellow business owner.

We would highly recommend everyone to visit!

Every aspect of our visit to Paradise Wildlife Park (better known to our girls as 'One Zoo Three') was absolutely incredible. Great value, stacks to do, and an ethos that totally supports the welfare and conservation of all species of animals. The enrichment in each enclosure was evident, and they're doing so much to improve and expand the provision for a wider array of wildlife.

The food at the Safari Diner was delicious and reasonably priced, and the Dinosaur World was breathtaking.

All this was topped off with phenomenally friendly staff throughout the park, even to the point of them radioing the brothers to say that our girls were big fans, and Aaron came out especially to meet them - all of us were thrilled to chat to him, totally star-struck, and the girls haven't stopped smiling since - snapped with a celebrity! Thank you so much, Aaron, you honestly made our day.

We've had a membership for a few years now. Lots of things to amuse the small children and lots of benches and seating areas to picnic, stop for a break or breastfeed.
There are 3 indoor eateries where you can buy a hot drink and something to eat, including a little cafe in the softplay centre that serves a very good hot chocolate.
There are some lovely animals to learn about, although some enclosures are on the small and shabby side, the wildlife park are constantly updating the habitats and the staff keep the animals' lives enriched.

A zoo with lots of potential. The animals are well looked after and you get to see plenty. The view of the lions and tigers is incredible! A bit of work going on at the minute but all for the better. Easy car parking (arrive early for parking close up to the zoo) and lots of disable spaces. Plenty of toilets but more baby changing facilities would make a difference. The area is clean and tidy, and staff are always around. A few places to eat and drink but limited options for food. Definitely recommend for a family day out!

Playground: Plenty of playgrounds for all ages and needs. There is a disabled playground (you need to speak to a member of staff for access)

Restrooms: Plenty of them for women and men and generally clean. More baby changing facilities are needed.

Picnic area: Lots of table space to eat spread around the park.

Restrooms: Overall good, but only one stall in each men's toilet.

Amazing day, but very busy! Hard to move around some parts because of how busy it was, especially as its only open until 4.30. However, despite how busy it was, we had an amazing day and are now watching the show One Zoo Three, which is really good!
The food place by the tigers is amazing! And we got to watch the tigers as we ate! Loved it.

A great zoo, cheaper than the bigger zoos but with the same animals and a closer experience. Perfect for 4-5 hours with the kids, and a great play area for them. The dinosaur trail is definitely worth taking, with several animated and realistic. All in all, a good choice for a morning or afternoon.

My family and I visited in 2019 and it was by far the best zoo we have ever been to. We loved how the play area/dinosaur area was split away from the animals and the enclosures were fantastic. Given we live right by Port Lympne and Howletts, I appreciate the fact this isn’t too spread out. The food was great as where the staff.

We returned yesterday for something to do but all of us were really quite disappointed. The sun bear enclosure (and everything promised to be coming soon four years ago) is still not done. The wolves and reindeer section is just rotting away and everything just feels a bit grubby and dilapidated.
I do appreciate it’s probably still reeling from the impact of covid so I’ve tried to take that into consideration with my review but after making a special effort to travel from Kent (2 hrs away) to support what we considered was an amazing zoo, it’s all a bit deflating.

Couple that with the fact that a lot of the glass enclosures we couldn’t see into because they were covered in steam and water (again, no one to blame really as it’s just the difference in outdoor/indoor temps) it all just felt a bit pointless going I’m sorry to say.

We were done in a couple of hours after lunch in the restaurant which previously served really good burgers but now are a bit cheap and nasty. Chips are banging though.

Sorry zoo. I don’t think I’ll be making this trip again.

It was very good fun I just found a bit expensive if you also add spending inside cafe and other attractions for all family . It should be cheaper for kids it's almost similar price with adult but any way it was great time with family recommended.Visited on

What a great place to visit whether you be old or young or simply a family looking for a great day out. This place has it all; animals, dinosaur park, kids play areas, crazy golf and more, and the real good thing is; it doesn’t break the bank. The animals are plentiful and well looked after and the venue itself is spotless and quite beautiful. I highly recommend a visit to each and everyone.
