Lovely day out, animals are well cared for and given space and freedom. Not too busy so no queues. Beautiful scenery and nice food in the cafe

Our first visit yesterday to Knowsley with our 5 year old granddaughter and it definitely won't be the last! The safari drive was great, saw some beautiful animals so closely. The lions were all fast asleep basking in the sun but nonetheless so beautiful to see them! We bit the bullet and drove through the baboon enclosure fully expecting to lose a few bits off the car.. however, despite them climbing on the car , they didn't even attempt to pull anything off and they were hilarious to watch! The sea lion show is awesome! Our granddaughter doesn't usually sit and concentrate for long but she was mesmerized from start to finish! The layout is great with plenty of toilets around and refreshments available wherever you go. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming and a special mention to Georgia who works in the face painting and dress up shop who was so patient and wonderful with our granddaughter. The prices inside for food, drink and rides are very reasonable too! Can't wait to go back again soon.

Paid a lot of money for the tickets yet compared to previous visits we saw hardly any animals. Lots of deer. 3 rhino, 1 ostrich, 1 zebra, few camels and reindeer at the end. In the lion enclosure there were 2 lions asleep, fair enough they were asleep but in previous visits there were 5/6 lions. Lots of inquisitive baboons though ready to pull the wipers off. Best bit. Saw a tiger on the tiger walk but he decided to hide. The queue for food and drink in the cafe was ridiculous so we didn’t wait. I asked a staff member if we could get take away chips from the drinks part and she kindly directed me to the outside bbq hut. Oh my, I waited for ages in a never ending queue as staff were taking orders and cooking each order before taking the next one. It was utter madness! The ice cream queues were horrendous! It was the same at the last visit. Dont think we will bother going back!

Paid £50 for two people, travelled from Grimsby...2 and half hour drive. Firstly went to cafe on site, very poor choice available and pricey, not to mention the wooden cutlery. We then began the car safari. First saw lots and lots of deer, about 5 rhinos and some camels. We continued on and saw nothing else until we entered the baboon enclosure where the baboons behaved as expected, jumping on car etc. We proceeded into the lion enclosure where the signs said if they approach to just carry on. We just carried on anyway as there weren't any lions at all. A very unmemorable and disappointing day out.

Great Day out! This has been in my drafts to post for a fair while! We visited as a family of four and had the best day out! It’s a full day and there’s loads to see and do. We didn’t pay for any extras such as the rides but still managed to fill our day. You can drive round the Safari drive as many times as you want. We drove round twice, did the walking elements and had one last drive round before heading home. Our children enjoyed doing the sticker trail as we drove round (and we bought an extra one for £1 so they could have one each) We really enjoyed the sea lion show and the staff members were really informative and engaging. We got really close to loads of the animals but they all had plenty of space to roam around. Looking forward to going back.

Been here previously but always took the Baboon safe route, this time my partner insisted on driving through, not even 20 seconds in the car was covered with the troop and they made short work of ripping off parts of the car 🤣 It's a one-time experience I would recommend

I brought my almost 2 year old daughter to the safari park a few weeks back and unfortunately didn’t check the weather beforehand, unfortunately it was raining by the time we arrived and so we didn’t see many animals on the safari drive. I emailed customer services to advise of this and they offered me a free return visit!! We made that return visit today and the weather was lovely we saw all of the animals and had such an amazing day! We also booked for 10:30am and didn’t arrive until 11:30am we were told this was absolutely fine and got to enjoy our day! Will be returning throughout the year!

Booked a Meerkat experience as a special 60th birthday present for my Mum. We were left standing in the cold for 30 minutes despite them being aware we were waiting. Then I had to find someone to ask, we then waited another 10 minutes for someone to come. Disappointing start. Ben, our host, was very friendly and engaging but that’s probably the only positive. The experience itself was nice but felt a little rushed and almost like we were an inconvenience. It was also massively ruined by onlookers, especially a rude lady (which is not the parks fault but when you’ve paid a lot for an experience, it’s a shame it can be easily ruined by others). We were not given our 10% off the gift shop. We then went on the safari drive and it was basically just deer. Again, understandably the animals won’t always “play ball” but it’s disappointing to just drive around a track viewing various forms of deer. We won’t be returning to Knowsley in the foreseeable and I wouldn’t recommend the experiences. It was expensive and ultimately was a real let down for us, especially as it was a special gift.

I treated my mom to a day here having seen it on the telly recently. We love visiting zoos and safaris and by far this is probably one of the worst we’ve been too. We traveled up from the Midlands and wished we had gone to our local safari! The safari was full of different types of deer and pheasant! We did get to see 4 lions close up. We did the whole safari in 25 minutes. Nothing was posted as to what area you were going too/through. You got to electric gates and they were just open or half open. So we decided to prologue the day by doing the walking safari. 2 Tigers which looked very distressed and bored as they were on their own and their cages were mud pits. There was some good birds of prey, but again very small cages for the size of birds. We did the nature trail round the lake, only to get to the end and find the gate locked so had to go back! Given Chester zoo isn’t far and the standard of zoos and safaris these days sorry but this needs real overhaul and work. If you’re going to take peoples money then animals should be out.

Took my misses and kids as we have been to West Midlands safari park and it was an amazing day out but this has to be the worst safari around surely we saw 2 zebras enclosed 3 rhinos that had there backs to us 5 lions that looked doped up and a million deer it was terrible the only good bit was the baboons even though they wrecked the car but didn’t care after coming out the drive through which took ages seen more empty space than animals it was pathetic in West Midlands safari zebra giraffes rhinos and other wildlife roam freely and can come near your vehicle for a feed but honestly 1/10 only because of the baboons the park was rubbish too rides were closed and not much there would never visit again need to up your game Knowsley serious go visit West Midlands and learn something about a proper safari
