The meerkats were very cute! Being from South Africa it was good to see the rhinos in a good condition. The many species of colourful birds were entertaining for the whole family.Full review by Gerda N

A nice backyard-like zoo. Unfortunately quite a few animals were off display. Some due to construction and some for no apparent reason.Full review by LennyLH

Totally agree with all those comments. Twoish hours. Mind you twenty minutes with a kaka parrot on your shoulder sniffing your perfume on your neck, under your chin and down your shirt front just can't be missed. It also wiped its head and beak over its body and wings, the keeper said it probably helps with their water proofing. What a privilege that was.(Btw it doesn't have to be a n expensive perfume either)
