My first Family trip to the zoo was a good day out but expensive day out with almost £15 entrance fee per person, we arrived at 13:10 to find out after the massive hipe about the pandas we couldnt get to see tham unless we pre booked however we did have a great walk arout the zoo and left at...

What could have been a magical day was spoilt by the consistant rain. Having said that, just seeing the giant panda was well worth it. When we went only the male was on show as the female was a bit under the weather (All that rain no doubt) he spent most of our 20 minute slot asleep but right on... More

Despite having lived in Edinburgh for five years, I'd never been to the zoo - I'm not a big zoo fan - but the giant pandas were a big draw.

We were disappointed by so many empty cages, pens and the amount of animals that had been moved to different areas. Hearing children saying "where are all the animals?" was quite sad. Several animals were pacing which was distressing to see. Oh and if you wish to see the Pandas - make sure you book an appointment in advance. More

We liked seeing the little penguins splash about in their enclosure. Pandas were interesting but over-rated. This place would be good for kids. Some of the animals were not anywhere to be seen. More
