BC Wildlife Park Reviews

Always love watching my grandchildrens excitement when they get to see all the animals.

Appreciated all the effort to rescue animals. Keep up the work!

Not just another zoo. Animals are in incredible habitats. Petting zooand educational program are excellent.

Som amy cool and cute animals. The kermodo bear was the highlight

It's a great place but I HIGHLY suggest going on a cloudy day or waiting until the fall to go when the weather isn't sweltering hot. Could barely see any animals. Was all a really fun outing though!

You have to go if you like animals. They are all rescued.

A park in the perfect setting! If you are visiting, please consider signing up for the VIP experience. It will match and exceed all your expectations. The Birds of prey experience was educating and it was simply amazing and thrilling to see the birds so closely.
The staff is the best I've encountered - Julie took care of our booking, Michele checked us in at the reception, and Jamie, the falconer helped us learn soooo much.
Definitely gonna visit again for the other experiences!

My family and I love the wildlife park. My kids love learning about the animals and learn new things everytine we come

A great place to take you children to learn about Canada's wildlife

Love this place .... love the animals amd shout out to Clover

Great spot especially with grandchildren. Check the official website for hours as they are closed on weedays in winter. This review site has the wrong hours.

Fantastic place to bring the family. My children enjoyed all of the park end to end,from animals to play park to multiple train rides. Not a bank breaker either. Easy to find, lots of parking. Decent onsite cafe too.

Small, pretty wildlife park. Very well maintained facility.

Wildlife rehabilitation center and park. Child friendly and handicap accessible. Interesting and well worth a visit.

I visited mid-week during the afternoon, so it was very quiet. Beautiful place with some great animals. The keepers talk on the Bobcat was very informative. It takes about an hour to walk through and see everything. Overall I had a great time.

It's a wonderful place to explore and learn about BC wildlife and conservation

Great place to take the family to see and encounter some really cool animals.

For nearly two decades we recommend this unique park to all our guests travelling on the Trans Canada to meet animals they might not see on their trip.
Our son Tobias (had stayed at the sanctuary near Smithers too) also learned about First Nations (music). Bravo to owners and staff!

A great place for Kids!

The Wildlife park puts on events all year that are a joy to experience with your kids. From the huge Christmas lights display and winter events, Easter and summer animal variety, bring your kids to run and walk around exploring all of the sights it offers.

School groups, quick stop-ins and anything gin between, the Wildlife Park offers food and playground to entertain the family for hours.

I would love to see more people take advantage of Kamloops Wildlife Park in order for it to continue growing and improving.

What an awesome place. A must see with lot of animals and various events. Will go again.

Not as fancy as I thought. They have one of each species mostly. Some exhibits didn't have any animals. OK for an hour's worth of stroll.

They had friendly and helpful staff, clean facilities, and a variety of animals. The grade ones I brought thoroughly enjoyed themselves playing, exploring, and observing.

Kamloops wildlife park is awesome. Take your family.

Great day trip and great for kids. Fun park and water park as well as all the animals!

So nice to experience these wild animals so close!!!

When our kids were little we always had a family pass each year. I m sure that we did this until our youngest was in her early teens. We loved to take our kids and their grandma here for a visit when she was visiting us from Abbotsford, B.C.
This was years ago and now our kids take our grandchildren to the Wildlife Park on a regular basis. I would recommend this park to anyone with or without children. The Christmas Wild lights is a beautiful time to go see the lights on display. It s a gorgeous display of the park all lit up. Even the train is lit up. I m not sure if they are still doing this with Covid 19 going on. I would recommend calling ahead to find out if they are still doing this.

Thank you to the BC wildlife park for creating a wonderful environment for our family on Father s Day !

Had a great time. It was nice seeing animals that had been injured or would stand a chance under normal circumstances getting that chance.

They have mostly wildlife from within Canada, so if that's what you want to see it's great! They have some great play spaces for kids, and a neat little train you can ride on.

This place is amazing, definitely a must see if your are driving through Kamloops.

Great way to see all the wild BC animals. Loved they were in their natural habitat and most were rescues that would no longer survive in the wild.
Sadly we couldn't find the kermode bear, and there were no lynx this time, but gives us a reason to go back again.

Although not big, three kinds of bears can be seen, touching the mountain (mian) sheep, riding a small train and playing in the water

Excellent facilities...animals are well cared for..good place to see widlife for kids

A must see when visiting Kamloops, especially if you have young children

It's a shame we can feel the sadness of the animals, I did a horrible mistake to go in

Very fun place to take family. Raptor show was great.

To see many native animals. Unfortunately, m.E. the enclosures (for example for Puma and Elk) too small.

Perfect family day out. From the maze to the train ride, all the well cared for rescued animals to the cafe with a great selection of food & ICE CREAM! Staff are lovely! Our 'go to' family day out.

The animals are so cute and there's so much to do here. Waterpark and playground. Train ride etc. So fun

Fantastic place. Always exciting to see the
Grizzly bears.

Goodn place to spend the day with friends and family.

I have been visiting the Wildlife Park since 1992 when we moved to Kamloops.
The animals and facilities are all well taken care of. Staff is friendly and informative.
It is a great place to take the family for a stroll in the fresh air while finding all the different animals. I love the feeding times when you get to learn more about the featured animal.
The mini train is always a must-do with the kiddos. The kids play area is great fun all year round and love the water spray area in the summer.
I am thankful we have the Wildlife Park in our city!

Amazing place if you love animals. Super educational

Perfect place to explore with family. Fun for kids and adults. There is a playground, water park and small petting zoo. Due to pandemic some activities are temporary not available.

You support a great cause (animals in rehabilitation) by coming here. The park has a great set up, with the addition of a miniature train that runs through it for tours. The staff is friendly and so are the animals!

Amazing place, amazing people doing amazing things. And there was a goat in a coat!

Saw a grizzly taking a bath and chilling within 5 meters, life goals completed!!
Non-profit animal conservation for orphaned and injured animals, this is a definite must.
I learnt a lot also, the staff are great at looking after the animals as well as very knowledgeable.
Give to a great cause, 100% recommend.

Cute, fun, scenic. good for younger families. More information on the health, status and recovery of the animals would be cool. Some of the animals had good habitats and space, others less so. Also looks like lots of spaces, vendors and opportunities for special events to happen.

Went in the first week of October, It was awesome, would recommend great zoo.

Half of the big ticket animals you can't see like the cougar, black bear, deer, lynx and moose. #20 enclosure is supposed to be the moose which is no longer there but I saw there was supposed to be one on the website.

Otherwise I was impressed with the layout and children's activities, gift shop was great and prices were reasonable.

Great place to take little ones to explore and tucker them out. Loved it.

Such a great family park lots to do with walking the trails to see the animals, train ride, a little park for the kids, picnic area and a gift shop! I would recommend checking it out!

Loved it!!!! The little dinner was awesome great food. The park was fantastic. The employee's where very helpful. The gift shop very reasonable. Thanks for a great time.

This place is a must see. Strongly recommend a morning start to see animals fresh before the midday heat. Had lunch here and food was great too. Explore inside to see bees and other animals and take a ride on the miniature train!!

Very well taken care of wildlife park!! Beautiful and happy animals. Caring staff and great experience!

I only been there once at night for Halloween. It was fun cool place

Clean, courteous people, well kept animals, nice cafeteria, great experience!

This is a nice way to experience the Wildlife of BC. We saw bears, Elk, Wolves, wolverines to name a few.

Dont go when it's raining, that's when I went and most of the animals were hiding, but it was still a lot of fun!

Tons of improvements and additions in the past few years. I was very impressed. There are definitely several things that could be improved (some displays have no signage so you don't know what it is, some broken interactive buttons, more staff lingering throughout the various areas to answer questions, more trees and shrubs in the outdoor exhibits). However, overall the great parts far outweigh those things and I'm assuming the park is doing the best they can within their budget. My kids and I had a great time.

My son has some much here! Loves seeing the animals and learning about them too.

They also had a cafe place to eat, gift shop.. about two hours start to finish,

Good place to see animals. But not much shade to cover from hot sun in summer time.

Not much open if you go in April. The train also only runs occassionally not all the time, which isnt specified on their website very clearly. I didn't find out about the train until after we went to the park, and only found the info on the website after searching for 10 minutes. Honestly, we probably wouldn't return
