Nice zoo with plenty of Animals. Lions, Tigers, sea lion's, penguin's, Giraffes and more. You could easily spend a full day there if you go to some or all of the talks about each animal through out the day. Would highly recommend going

Blackpool Zoo offers a fantastic day out with its diverse range of animals, from majestic lions and playful penguins to towering giraffes and mischievous monkeys. The zoo is well-maintained, with spacious enclosures and informative displays that enhance the experience. It's a great place for families to explore the wonders of wildlife up close. My child loved it and i did also and mainly the dinosaur world I recommend buying tickets online as it saves you money

I pre-booked tickets as we knew we were going to be in Blackpool for the week, it's not far from the seafront at Blackpool and there is plenty of parking available for PS4 for all day. There is plenty to see and shows throughout the day too, my kids loved it, especially the sea lion show! There is a lake side restaurant you can eat in which also contains a Subway which I would recommend for food. Overall we had a busy day and the kids had a great time!

I recently visited Blackpool Zoo and had an amazing time! It's a fantastic place for families and anyone who loves animals. The enclosures are spacious, and the animals seem well-cared for. My favorites were the playful penguins, majestic elephants, and the big cats. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to answer questions. There are plenty of interactive experiences and educational programs for kids. The daily shows and feeding times were a highlight. Overall, it's a fun and educational day out. I highly recommend a visit if you're in Blackpool!

Unfortunately, for me the place is too expensive for a family with two children. Almost PS100 for entry, plus PS4 for parking where it should be free. The zoo is very large, you can really have a nice time. there is a train at the zoo that takes you 10 minutes. you pass zebras, reindeer, ostriches, and wolves. Of course, you have to pay an additional 25 pounds for this pleasure. There is a bar in the zoo where you can eat and unfortunately the prices are really high. Too expensive. If you go to the zoo, be prepared to spend a lot of money. They really should lower the price because nowadays few people can afford such a visit to the zoo.

Pricey, but then everything is these days. There is a small discount for buying the tickets online. Great place for young people to see animals in real life. Took my granddaughter as she is fond of elephants. She definitely enjoyed going to the elephant house and also seeing all the other animals. The adults also enjoyed the trip. The car park was very busy.
