Hertfordshire Zoo is a great place to visit with so many wonderful animals and great dinosaur models. The food in the cafe is 10/10. There are so many great viewing points to see the animals! The animals look so happy all the time and are a lot of fun to watch!Visited on

I really wish we lived closer so we could come more often!

We travelled for 2 hours and it was well worth it. We spotted Aaron who was so kind to my son, having a photo and talking to him about their football teams. Both my kids love One Zoo Three and were excited to tell us parts of the zoo they’re recognised and the names of the animals.

So many different animals to see, we especially enjoyed the high walkthrough with the big cats and bears. The huge viewing windows were great.

The robotic dinosaurs were really excellent, the best we’ve ever seen.

The splash pad was a welcome break at lunchtime to cool off on a hot day.

We watched both bird shows and the staff were so knowledgeable. They happily answered our questions about the birds at the end.

If we lived closer we would definitely have annual passes.

Outstanding visit. Very helpful staff and great range of attractions and food for our party of 5, age range 74 to 16. Easy walk for all including 4 replaced hips. We would highly recommend it to everyone.

Great family day out, there are cafes/ stands and restaurants throughout the zoo with plenty of seating and benches across the zoo. In terms of their facilities, can't really complain.

The animals though, (maybe we just happened to go on one of those days) but it was rather disappointing. Some of the enclosures were empty and the ones that did have animals in them weren't really interested in doing anything. (Can't blame the animals, they're just being them) But you'd expect a lot of different species of animals there but there just wasn't a lot. compared to other zoos I've been to this just wasn't it.

All in all if you're looking for a day out, it's a decent place to go. If you're looking to see all types of animals then maybe look at other places.

Great family day out. We booked in advance and saved a few £s per ticket which was good (still cost us £100 for a family of 4).

Parking was free and plenty of spaces (although crossing the road is an accident waiting to happen).

Lots of refreshments throughout the park (fairly reasonably priced).

The dinosaur park is excellent, great animatronics and great for the kids, with lots of decent photo opportunities. The dinosaur train is an extra £2 per person, ok for younger kids perhaps but personally I’d give it a miss next time.

We stopped at the restaurant near the start for lunch and actually was pleasantly surprised, food was decent (except the chicken pasta salad, definitely avoid that), quickly prepared and relatively reasonable (£30 for 4 of us).

Then we entered the zoo, nice and easy to navigate around, pretty sure we didn’t miss any enclosures either. The animals all looked well cared for, but the enclosures in my opinion were far too small (reason for the 4 stars). The sun bears were just continuously pacing and didn’t look particularly happy. The lion enclosure was the size of my garden, and just didn’t seem large enough for these beautiful animals.

Overall, a great day out, would definitely return and recommend it 😊.

Haven't been here in 14 years so was a shock to see how much its grown but honestly looks great. So much to do n see. Place was clean n the animals look well cared for. Plenty of places to eat and easy access to all areas for a pram which was a relief. We have an annual pass, given to us as a gift, n will definitely b making the most of it.

Zoo was brilliant. Well organised with a friendly atmosphere. Interesting animals and lotsof info about where they came from etc. Also info re climate change, poaching and other things that affect the animals in the wild. Lots of free talks thoughout the day. Well worth a visit, would go again.Visited on

We came here whilst on holiday as our son watches ‘one zoo three’ on bbc iplayer And wanted to see the animals which Cam Aaron and Tyler talk about on the show!

We paid £47.20 for two adults , two 1 year olds and one 6 year old (our 6 year old has a blue Peter card which means he gets in the zoo for free !!)

Fantastic zoo. We spent all day here.

There’s the world of dinosaurs before you enter the zoo which was great. Full of animatronic dinosaurs. A dino train (£2 per person over the age of 2) dino shows , lots of play parks and some places to eat.

The zoo is great! A Selection of different animals , walkways and play parks .

We have a twin buggy which was difficult to navigate in the rainforest part and we also didn’t fit into the temple of Angkor with it as it was too busy. Other than that the terrain for a twin pushchair was great.

We took a picnic with us and there were plenty of places to sit and eat. We bought 6 doughnuts from the shack in the Dino section. They were nice.

The Animal enclosures were a lot bigger than I have seen in other zoos which was great and all the animals were active and looked happy.

Gift shop was nicely laid out. Somethings were quite expensive comparative to the gift shop at the zoo that I work at.

There was an area with water play , small slide and water sprayers , changing rooms and toilet , deck chairs etc was a cold day so it was empty but looks nice for a warm day. Our son did go in for a bit and enjoyed it!

Every where was clean and tidy!

We will definitely go back again one day!
