Whipsnade Wild Animal Park Reviews

I am not a great fan of zoos generally, but Whipsnade Zoo in Bedfordshire has won me over and has become an important part of family life over the past few years. Whipsnade is one of two Zoological Society of London zoos, the other one being London Zoo. ZSL is committed to conservation and research, and not only has the welfare of the ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

We went to Whipsnade last week and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It's a massive place, you need a whole day to get around and enjoy it fully. The staff were friendly and helpful, although I did notice those around the park (rather than in cafe's etc) were volunteers - there didnt seem to be any actual keepers or 'proper' ...  Read the complete review

It appears the last review about Whipsnade was getting on in age a bit, so I thought I'd leave my thoughts on the park as we visited it only a few months ago. I was very impressed with the zoo. It's cleverly laid out like a safari park. You can even drive your own vehicle on paved roads within the park without fear a monkey will rip off ...  Read the complete review

Whipsnade is almost big enough to be a small town in its own right. It's quite a lot besides a wild animal park. For most animals the enclosures are very spacious. In the wild certain animals may roam over several miles or even several hundred miles. No English park could reproduce that, but I didn't see any creature that looked ...  Read the complete review

Whipsnade Zoo is one of the largest wild animal parks in Europe, set in 600 acres of parkland. All of the animals seem extremely well looked after, with large, well laid out enclosures. This is more than can be said for the care of the visitors. The impression you get as a visitor is that you are only wanted for your money and visitors are a ...  Read the complete review

Our teachers had promised a fantastic trip out and most certainly, these promises didn't fade away!!! Apart from on the way there when my friend spilt Coke all over her shirt and ...  Read the complete review

We took our Daughter to Whipsnade Wild Animal Park today, she is 1 year old, and thourghly enjoyed herself!, and so did we for that matter! To get there, it only took us 30 minutes, but we live in Hemel Hempstead. But to give you a rough idea, it takes about 20 minutes from the M25 motorway. There is lots to do and see, we got ...  Read the complete review
