Whipsnade Wild Animal ParkNewest Review: ... nice but we still went as we had already got our tickets through our Tesco clubcard points.

My fiance had a week off work and we thought we'd begin our holiday by going to Whipsnade. The weather wasn't very nice but we still went as we had already got our tickets through our Tesco clubcard points. I'm now glad we didn't have to pay for it as I found the Zoo very big and drawn out, you had to walk for ages to get to certain areas like the penguins.

I was very impressed with the zoo. It's laid out like a safari park. You can even drive your own vehicle on paved roads within the park. The selection of animals is impressive.
