I can not recommend Safari Zoo highly enough. Their animal experiences are absolutely amazing. If you love animals then this is the place to be. On our recent visit we did 6 animal feeds on our first day at the zoo. All the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The next day we had booked the mammal keeper experience and it was simply awesome. Our keeper Natalie had brilliant knowledge of all the animals and she was simply a pleasure to spend the morning with. The fact that some of the animals free roam around the zoo plus the walk through areas make this such a special place. Thank you so much Safari Zoo and your wonderful staff for our very special time. We can't wait to return.
Had a day out with a good friend catching up.. what a lovely place for a day trip. The big cats were a bit shy but that didn't spoil the day. If you're with someone in a wheelchair be prepared for a workout there are some steep paths All in all though fab day out we paid the extra £5 to feed the giraffes. You can also pay to feed the leemas and the penguins. There are other experience you can pay for like feeding the tigers or the sloths I think they are £35, which would be a great birthday treat for someone. Clean park, friendly staff animals look happy and seem relaxed .. nice family day out.
This zoo exceeded my expectations. We had a wonderful day out and loved that we could get close to many animals. There was multiple feeding opportunities to observe and the chance to learn about the animals behaviours. There is a good variety of animals and opportunities to feed the animals at a fair price. We had bought a Groupon voucher which was good value for money but would definitely pay the zoos full priced entry as it is a good zoo. The zoo also has a fantastic play area and well stocked gift shop. As we visited in low season it wasn't too busy and most of the cafes were closed.
Went to the zoo during summer holidays. Was warm and fairly busy but we had a really good experience. The staff are really friendly and happy to chat. The only 2 let downs are not allowing picnics, when you are allowed to buy food from there and eat it around the place, and also paid for penguin feeding, the guy who did it seemed miserable. Overall great experience. Worth the travel.
Had a great day here. Plenty of Animals to keep you interested. Loved the bear. You can walk in amongst some of the animals which the kids found so exciting. They loved the play park. I was happy with the ticket price. The food in the restaurant was delicious..a wee bit pricey but since the tickets were so cheap, it's hard to grumble. Free parking, no picnics or smoking allowed within the zoo.
Great day out at South lakes Safari Zoo. Spent about ~4 hrs here on a quiet Monday in September. Pleased to see all the animals apart from the Lions. Lots to see and do and great to walk amongst the animals, having lemurs laying in the grass by the path and Emus walking by you. We had lunch in the top restaurant whilst watching the giraffes. You can't bring your own food in but then you're walking with the animals. Lovely day out, would certainly recommend.
We came here to do the big cat experience. What an experience it was! The staff upon arrival were friendly and helpful and during the encounter / walking around. They explained everything in detail and gave information about the big cats. We arrived a few hours before, which for me was plenty of time to explore the rest of the zoo, its great that a lot of animals are roaming around. There are lots of parts that are under refurbishment which I guess is a good thing. Definitely recommend visiting here, the experiences are amazing.
Came here for my 30th birthday, I can honestly say it was the best day of my entire life. The zoo itself you can see how much the keepers love the animals. They all look healthy and content. I do want to say a special thank you the primate keeper. Her expertise on them was something else. She loved each and every one of them she clearly had great communication with them and it was so lovely. I highly recommend this place. All the staff are brilliant and the experience is out of this world. Thank you so much to you all
Visited during half term and it was brilliant. Not too busy, lots of opportunities to feed animals - there was a wait for this but this is to be expected. Staff very friendly and helpful. Lots of the food/drink kiosks were closed probably because it's not peak season. Definitely visiting again and would highly recommend. Worth noting that you cannot take picnics inside the zoo - you can go out to your car and have pic nic then return with your ticket / receipt or alternatively there are plenty of places to buy food.
Best day out ever! Years ago I heard this place had a bad rep- so I'd never been before. After visiting for a friend's birthday I can't recommend enough- the most interactive zoo experience ever. Also,if you pay for zookeeper experience, this money apparently goes towards the animal welfare-win win. Informative and friendly staff too
