Such a lovely zoo, spent the day there with my family. All the animals were out so you could see them. The zoo is a huge area , the grounds and walking around the zoo is beautiful. Stopped and had some lunch there , also nice. I would definitely be coming back to visit the zoo again , loved it

I had a most enjoyable day at the zoo. It was crowded being school holidays. However it only added to the joy to see all the young ones being so excited to see the animals. I was very impressed on how clean and green it was. The animals seem to be well looked after and were active. Great to see them having space and not cooped up. There were also straw in bags strewn around for to stimulate the animals to dig into the bags and investigate.
