London Zoo

This place was absolutely massive!! WE had a quite a few hours to spend in the zoo, but were really rushing to see it all towards the last couple of hours. There is the main park and across the road is the Out of Africa section, so do allow yourself a whole day, especially if there are little ones too. Getting the negatives at the way, there was nowhere to leave bags for the day which was pretty annoying as we were on the way back from a 3day break! The other thing, which isn't really a criticsm to the zoo, but for some reason we though there would be elephants and there wasn't. Be sure to check out the enclosures that you can walk into. There's a ...  Read the complete review

-Going to London Zoo- I have recently moved away from London and decided that on my very last day living in London my best friend and I should visit the zoo. I had spent nearly two years working just up the road from the zoo and had never visited it. I just thought it was one of those things that I should do before I left. Fortunately the weather was warm on my last day so we took a short tube journey to Camden Town and decided to have a pub lunch before visiting the zoo. By the time we left the pub the weather had changed completely but that's the UK for you and being former Swansea residents we weren't going to let the threat of rain scare us ...  Read the complete review

I went to London Zoo yesterday and had a fantastic day out. It really was superb. Well laid out, lots to see and do. Well worth the money and I would definately go again. Me and my other half went along for the day, we were staying in Edgware and got the tube to Camden Town and walked to the zoo, which wasn't far away. We queued for about a minute and then went straight in. The man at the till was very helpful and friendly. Me and my other half had a 2 for 1 ticket, but to be honest I would have quite happily paid the full price for the day we had. We followed the map around the zoo and it was so well laid out, there are lots of things to do if you ...  Read the complete review

I went to London Zoo last week when it was pouring down with rain! That didn't stop us from having a great time! When it was really chucking it down, we went around the indoor aquarium and reptile house to escape the heavy rain. There was a diverse range of species in both sections and it took us a good 1.5 - 2 hours to have a good look at all of the animals in just those 2 sections. When the rain calmed down a bit and was just drizzling, we made our way round the rest of the zoo. We had expected the animals to be cowering away from the rain but were surprised to find the primates climbing around and playing. The animals that did escape the rain ...  Read the complete review

I went for to London Zoo for the first time last week and overall it was okay. Firstly it was well laid out, we went early and did not have to queue (essential when you have three kids with you). We were given a map and found the different areas fairly easily. There are many exhibits there, it really is a full day out so young children will get tired. There are the African animals, penguins, aquariums, reptile houses, rainforest areas, etc etc. Many things that will keep you and any children amused and wide-eyed. I do have a couple of criticisms though. I thought many of the pens for the larger animals were far too small, it is very much a zoo and ...  Read the complete review
