A great day out for the family. The zoo is advertised as a conservation wildlife park and there are new open enclosures for both the primates and the lions however work to replace the old concrete enclosures is ongoing. There is a wide range of animals to see including dolphins & sea lions and the shows are worth seeing (check... more

Some of the Zoo, in particular, cattle had reasonably nice enclosures but when I came to the primate area I could have wept. Chimpanzees were kept in small old fashioned cages that were rusting. They had... more

A wonderful place to see and interact with animals. Tha dolphin and sea lion show is very good (we have a disabled son who is always allowed to go in and interact from the poolside with the dolphins (this is not something they allow for everyone as it distresses them) also they have a cablecar that takes you round the... more
