Africa Alive Reviews

This is without a doubt the biggest let down you’ll ever encounter. The price of admission and what you get is criminal. You spend time walking aimlessly around looking for animals, but alas, there is not much at all! The lion enclosure is there with no lions in it:
Please save your hard earned money by not pumping any money into this giant con.
A great family day, with good friends, however, no experience to reflect on, only an enormous sour note.

Not a bad day but somehow lacks. A lot of animals caged in remote spots and generally in dull damp soggy compounds. Kids loved the play area and safari train did the trick.

DO NOT VISIT

Shocking zoo we booked a day out and my little lad started with a temp 20 mins after being there we came off the park as it states if any covid signs called for a refund and theu point blank refused the manager Aki was so rude she simply said u can come bk another time i live 6 hours away she was so rude and unsympathetic. The lady who checked us in told us we would get a refund for followin the rules... NEVER AGAIN staff need retraining

This “zoo” is awful. Walked round in less than 2 hours and this included lunch.
My 5 year old grandson complained how boring it it was.
It’s overly expensive and frankly not worth a tenth of what you pay.

Very poor value for money just to enter the park, staff on entrance not overly welcoming, disappointed they wasn’t offering the medals for finding stamps or whatever they normally are which is part of the fun and excitement for the kids. Wasn’t many animals and those that was there just looked sad as my child said. From website it suggested there was a cafe style place on site which was far from that, not the range of food you would expect to find to try to appeal to a wide variety of tastes, what food and drinks was available was expensive. Was there 1 hour 30 and in summary it was not worth the visit or the money and will definitely not be returning

Went here last weekend, paid £55 for two adults and a child, was boring! Hardly any animals, paid nearly £9 for three ice-creams and literally were there about an hour and a half! Very disappointing!

Africa alive zoo, Kessingland: Discusted at how they are STEALING money from CHILDREN on school day trips!!! My son (13yo) went get a slushie (£2.50) to be told they would happily take his £10 cash but NOT give any change! He's 13, and not aware of shameless money scams and deceipt. When he got home we called them immediately, got called back by a 'messenger', and got told their trying to go cashless and that the children should have been accompanied so its the schools fault!? Imagine how much this zoo is stealing from children when theirs several coaches a day visiting. DO NOT GIVE THESE CRIMINALS YOUR MONEY! How LOW can a business/people get - I guess because of lost money during covid - to allow the scamming of young naive unaccompanied teens on a day trip!
