London Zoo reviews
London Zoo is the most dismal and depressing experience I have had recently. I would avoid it at all costs. It spoiled my short holiday in London.
by pboulton, 09 May 2008Very bad. Needs more support, so can people please donate to help these very beautiful animals.
by bradleyjago, 20 Jun 2007It's time it was closed for good, and the animals put where they can get some pleasure out of life.
by beejay, 17 Jun 2007Dreadfully poor zoo, yet at very high admission prices. Whole place in decline, with some sections closed for rebuilding, such as the gorillas' enclosure, and other sections that need rebuilding, such as the aquarium.
Few animals on display for what was once a great zoo, and those animals there were confined in enclosures that were much too small. Avoid London Zoo, and see animals in the open at natural parks such as Woburn.
A somewhat depressing and run down experience, for us and probably for the few flea bitten animals that were to be seen. Let's hope the new tiger and gorilla enclosures give the zoo a boost.
by ag (6 reviews), 31 Aug 2006I think that London Zoo is a great zoo, and obviously, a zoo will not be the same as the wild BUT it does do a pretty good job.
And all the animals looked happy and none where in distress.
All the animals are on concrete, the giraffes have no trees to graze on etc. It is a very big contrast to the wild. Enclosures are nowhere near big enough in my opinion.
