Gorillas and other primates were amazing and had plenty of space. Lions looked a little cramped and because of some closed areas we managed the whole zoo at a gentle pace in lees than two hours (and we did the one way system twice).
My daughter absolutely loved it for her early birthday present :)
Took my 3 year old granddaughter and had a great time even though it drizzled most of the time. I've heard some people say that Bristol Zoo is small. Yes it is compared to say Chester Zoo but I love it for being compact. The only thing I would ask is that there be more covered picnic areas. It was d...
A great day for all ages my 16,14,and 8 year old loved it. The only thing that hindered us a little was the lack of parking we had to drive around all the back streets for ages to find somewhere if we hadn't bought online tickets we may not of gone in. This said once inside there was plenty to do an...
Was here for meeting as opposed to usual day out with kids. Well set up, facilities good. Slightly echoey meeting room but more than made up for by a fantastic lunch and chance to mosey round the zoo during lunchtime.
Could have stayed longer, it's been a long time since I had visited the Zoo but my grandchildren showed me around
First of all, I don't like zoo but it captivated me. And not the animals whose prison I am against, but the atmosphere and intimacy of this place. Full of benches woven into wonderful vegetation, no candy boxes, etc. High price. A great place for those in love
Great zoo, lots of interesting animals and friendly rangers all around!
Great value and very knowledgeable staff. Spent four hours happily walking round with a 3 and 7 yr old. The activity centre (when we were there) was brilliant value.
Lovely zoo, loads of interesting animals to observe. Neat and tidy. They have souvenirs shops.
I and my partners family visited Bristol zoo on the 15/09/18 and whilst the grand kids enjoyed themselves i was very disappointed for the pice we paid.
Unfortunately it is not the same as it was just 30 years ago when it was a zoo and had animals normally associated with a zoo.
Amazing found difficult to find but when we got there brilliant
It is a very educational zoo, it is not only to see the animals, you are learning and the facilities make the interaction very fascinating, the area of gorillas, penguins, butterflies, birds and nocturnal animals
More horticultural than animals but no worse for that
Very over priced for what is there. It has improved over the recent years and I would go back just for the kids
Very good zoo. Gorillas are lovely and worth the visit. Restaurant is also nice
Very pleasurable afternoon spent with kids. Don't miss the Gorilla talk. Dropped a two stars due to a lot being closed being winter but pulled one back with heavily discounted entry.
It's a very nice zoo which is properly maintained and friendly staffs. However the zoo is small
We had a great visit to Bristol zoo!! It was great to see some different animals and not just the usual 'zoo animals'.
The food was lovely at the restaurant and very reasonably priced to.
Highly recommend a visit for all ages!
Great place to have a picnic, take your dog for a walk and just go for a stroll. Very green and open park
Ugh. Such a disappointment.
A tiny zoo. Freezing cold and not a lot of indoor spaces to warm up in. The viewing angles on cages were such that only a single family could stand there at a time. But it didn't matter, because the kids won't even look at the animals because of all the garish attraction...
LOVED it here! I will be returning with my little girl. Fantastic day out, staff are friendly and helpful.
Lovely zoo set in in beautiful gardens. We were very lucky to see the new born baby gorilla but disappointed that the red pandas had not arrived as my son was looking forward to seeing them. Very covid secure, plenty of sanitisers and social distancing as the zoo didn't appear very busy due to the s...
A good small zoo, quite educational and informative, good place for the family. It's well laid out and actually feels a lot bigger than it is. Parking can be a bit of a chore, food average and a bit expensive, but overall a good day out.
Such a great day out, there's lots for the family to do, the monkey enclosures are fantastic! We come here annually.
Very good place for animals. We also saw santa there which was very good.
Been a few years since I visited and everything is starting to look tired. Alot of things closed or enclosures empty. Needs investing and influx of new animals.
The perfect place for kids and I enjoyed those butterflies and lion but not much....
Get close with some cool animals . Odd location but good day out. Book in advance for better discount.
The best zoo I visited while I was still at school
A great day out. Used to come to the zoo a lot, and it's gotten better each time! Very friendly staff who are really enthusiastic about their jobs, and who are open to have a good chat about your favourite animals. The talks are all interesting and informative too.
Such a amazing array of animals and a relatively small space
Not a big zoo: Leo, hippopotamus, pair of tapirs, gorillas, crocodile)))
We visited when they had the dinosaurs out which our 2 yr old loved! Shame the restaurant has lost so much of its outside seating but understandable.
Really fun, lots of things to do and animals to look at
Lots of activities for children and adults , food good quality, reasonable price
It is quite compact and easy to find the right areas for your needs - great venue for kids
Really nice day out. Informative staff and good attractions for all ages. Well partnered with the wild place project in Bristol.
Easily the best zoological gardens in UK. And also lay host to some amazing functions and events
Family edicational centre of the animals they keep,and the monkeys that love visitors watching them
A good place to take the kids at a reasonable price. Well recommended.
Plenty of facilities at the zoo, loads to see, my first time there and it was brilliant, can't wait to go back already
Go early to gat a parking space as it is limited. Nice zoo.... nocturnal house a little too dark to see much. Food a little pricey. Most importantly all the animals looked healthy and well cared for in nice enclosures.
Lovely day out at the Zoo today visiting father Christmas
Had a great time, the staff was helpful and knowledgeable!
Very disappointing really. Not many animals on show, too many cages empty or under repair, old or run down enclosures. Very costly in general, and an absolute nightmare to find without a sat nav, dont rely on signposts as there aren't many!
A surprising amount of animals for such a small zoo. Very nice gardens and fun stuff for kids. Highly recommended.
Not too busy plenty to do with a 1 year old, didnt feel rushed and could take the day at our own pace
Ok if you've got young kids as the playarea as well as the zoo is quite safe for them to run around in or you've not been before. We only went as we had a special offer of a twilight viewing. It does have some gorillas and a couple of lions but that's it for the big animals. Its not really changed o...
They are doing a great job during this unusual time
We loved it here next time I will come with my grankids
Wonderful day out. Great use of space. Walk from on animal to another without missing anything. Talks were very informative
Always a great visit. A lovely setting, fantastic animals. Staff are always happy to talk to you and explain about the animals. Talks are regular at various exhibits (the gorilla island talk is a must).
Before or after, the Bristol downs makes for a great walk (moments away from the zoo). Or Clif...
Lovely gardens and the zoo is a lovely place well worth a visit
What a fantastic day out for all the family. Loved seeing all the different animals, there's a play area for the kids and a zip wire. Cafe is lovely. Great day outside!
Amazing day out with the family. My 6 years old boy, love it. He didn't stop for 1 minute. And my 15 months girl just said "Hiya" to all the animals. The price of the ticket is resonable and you can find some vouchers or deals online.
Love the zoo, clean and tidy
Had amazing funday out. Not enough animal variety, we got zoo done in 3/4 hours
Always good for disabled love this place I was good for A day out
I love that place. There is a lot of things to do and lots of animals to look at. There is a historical place to look at. Me and my family loved it there. There were no smoking areas. I think that there should be a few smoking areas for people that smoke
A good place to spend a nice day with your children.
