Knowsley Safari Park Reviews

Knowsley Safari Park is an outstanding visitor attraction in Merseyside, which is perfect for families. We took our two young daughters in August and they were enthralled from start to finish. I would highly recommend getting to the park 10 or 15 minutes before it is due to open, which is what we did and even on a Saturday morning in peak season ...  Read the complete review

Knowsley Safari Park is probably the closest thing you're going to get to a genuine safari park in the UK. It's by no means an accurate representation of the natural habitats of the animals there (for a start it rains more here than in Africa!), but it makes for a fun and educational day out and is better presented than a traditional ...  Read the complete review

Its really easy to find, just near the motorway, and prices are reasonable for what you get. You pay per person - not per car! There is a road miles long you can drive round. We went in the winter and it was still ...  Read the complete review

I first went here when I was seven and have the leaflet to prove it with a nice photo of a lion on it. Bless. I had no memories of it at all other than I seemed to have the desire to go again which has stayed with me for 30 years. Last summer I went again, not knowing what to expect other than it sounds good. I could, I suppose, only be ...  Read the complete review

We needed to go somewhere that would take no more than an hour by car, that would hold the interest of all of us (thus avoiding screams and squabbling), that couldn't be spoilt by bad weather, and that was actually OPEN despite it being only ...  Read the complete review

We decided to go to Knowsley Safari Park near Liverpool on Saturday. It is a great day out but I would advise you to make sure you have plenty of drinks because being a safari park, you have to keep your windows closed and on hot days, with two or more people in the car it can get very, very warm. Getting There *********** ...  Read the complete review
