Fantastic zoo, well laid out, animals looked content and we saw all of them clearly. The grizzly bears and polar bears were amazing as was the bird show 🦒🦩🦛😃

It was amazing! I really had a great time with my family. Especially the birds spectacle was fabulous! And at the madagascar zone, you can see Lemurs very closely. If you are lucky, they jump on your shoulder and stay (but you are not allowed to touch). I totally recommend this place. Thank you very much!

It was a great experience for me and my kid. The zoo has a variety of animals from flamingos to elephant and lions. It's a nice place to visit. I recommend it.

We stayed overnight at the Beaver Creek lodge (overlooking grizzly bears) and it was by far one of the best experiences of my life. The rooms are amazing, dinner was excellent and the whole thing felt really special on every level. It was good fun to walk around the zoo in the after hours. overall we spent around 24 hours inside and we could stay even longer.

Wow what a great Zoo it has a massive range of different animals to look at and the shows are great especially the bird show. The price is very reasonable and there are plenty of rest/picnic areas if you bring your own food. It is hilly in places and a little steep so bear that in mind if you use or are pushing a wheelchair or pushchair. A great day out
