Zsl London Zoo, The Council Room

We visited on a bank holiday so the park was busy but there was space to still listen to the zoo keepers talks. It was great seeing how the zoo has changed and improved over the years. Learning about how enclosures have changed for the best for the animals. When we visited there were a number of baby animals which was great. A number of walk through areas for a change to get closer to animals like lemurs, monkeysz butterfly's. I was impressed with the engagement of the staff and knowledge. Sharing facts and Information. Free water refill station and a number of different food outlets.

What an adventure! London Zoo completely surprised me – it’s HUGE, so wear your comfiest shoes and get ready to smash your daily step count while exploring every corner. From majestic gorillas (the big guy is a real show-stopper 😂) to the tiniest creepy crawlies, there’s something for everyone to marvel at. It’s the perfect spot for families, couples, or anyone who just wants a fun day out. Pro tip: arrive early if you want to see the whole place at a relaxed pace. Bring a picnic (lots of space to enjoy it!) and a reusable water bottle – there are plenty of refill stations around. Also, big thumbs up for the number of toilets – super convenient. Food-wise, expect the classics: pizza, burgers, fish & chips. Great for a quick bite, but if you’re picky, you’ll be glad you brought snacks. Oh, and fair warning… there are a few humid zones, so if you’ve got hair that frizzes, brace yourself 😅. Highlights! Petting an adorable baby goat (heart officially melted), the dramatic gorilla, and yes – the terrifying-for-some spider room (only for the brave 💪). All in all, London Zoo is a must-do. Educational, entertaining, and full of “wow” moments – especially for little ones. An adventure that must be visited at least once.

A wide range of creatures, a fantastic day out, we walked around everything! There are so many opportunities to get closer to the animals. The keepers are all really knowledgeable about the animals that they are looking after. The tiger talk was really interesting and the woman was very happy to answer any and all questions that people had. Parking was easy and not too far from the entrance to the zoo.
