West Midland Safari Park Recenzje 

Visiting the safari park is more like visiting a farm, extremely disappointing, unless you can afford a lodge you can’t see the animals you are really going to see, there a lot of sheep, deer, goats?, 4 camels, 3 wild dogs, 1 elephant, lions, you are sold food but can’t feed hardly any of the animals, the warders were constantly moving on the animals I’m assuming because of the new time slots, I definitely won’t be renewing my annual pass, I heard other people voicing the same concerns as me and my family, eventually greed for money will destroy what was a amazing experience for people who can’t afford safari’s in Africa, which is probably a similar price to a lodge in the west midland safari? park,

Changes to entrance fees and nothing in return for much higher prices!
Additional cost for wrist bands.
No student discounts.
Coke £4.50!...Told it was a free re-fillable anywhere on site. Afterwards told this was not the case...dishonest and wrong.
No extra rides or activities, yet higher prices to access!?
£6 to hook 3 duckies....come on!
Portion sizes reduced in Dino restaurant. All disposable packaging. No air conditioning but food still tastes OK.

Could hear so many families unhappy with the prices. It's hard enough to survive during the summer holidays. Please WMSP help don't hinder families and all children from enjoying such venues.

The animals/safari was fine, nothing too crazy, I did set my expectations too high I think.
The added on prices for everything, like the fair? You would think that would be included in the extortionate pricing, but no! Not forgetting all the other activities, That's extra money, the food and drink is too expensive aslo, £4.50 for a diet coke? 4 hotdogs and chips, £38.80. It's just extortion at the end of the day! I ended up telling them that it's too expensive and cancelled my orders.
For a day out for the children, it's far too much money.
I certainly won't be going again.

We took a last minute passanger so we had to buy a extra ticket the office was late opening so took half hour to buy this ticket then they refused to.let us in because we had no ticket gor the baby .
Then we paid 60 pounds for lunch as we believed we would get refill drinks.oh no you have to pay 2.50 for each extra drink. Staff were unresponsive to every request just daft ! One lady called Meg smiled and was fu of enthusiasm I told her I would mention her name as dhe was the only staff member that smiled all day. I would recommend you take your own food
The pot holes in tbe roads are really bad , when it's busy you can't avoid them .

PLEASE don’t waste your time or money on this badly managed place. Stuck in high temperatures for over 2 hours in the safari part and honestly wondered if they had any animals at all in some parts. Would have been better off having a walk in the country. Then to end the day with my grandson who has autism with severe learning difficulties to be discriminated against having a meltdown and my daughter in tears. After years of visiting this park will not be returning and I urge people to do the same.

What an utter load of rubbish! Qued literally for 3 hours around the safari park just to look at trees and grass maybe the occasional wild animal! You may aswell just look outside don't waste your time!

Nobody answers the phone to book a lodge or experience. After reading reviews may not bother now.

Long queues around the drive through and hardly any animals to be seen waste of a long drive there and back and definitely a waste of money.

We come today after spending nearly £200’on tickets alone we was so so disappointed the safari part which is why most people come to “
WMSP” was so poorly managed it took us 2.5 hours to do the safari hardly any animals to be seen as there kept in the lodges for the people staying in them . The locked gates do nothing but cause more traffic as it takes so long for them to open and close. It really needs to be looked at as yesterday alone there was nearly 3 accidents were cars were trying to get passed that didn’t want to feed the animals . The staff are rude and not helpful at all , the wristbands in the leisure part I wouldn’t waste your money on them they charged a 4 year old a children’s wrist band £12 for a 4 year old wasnt the price that mattered as such IF he could actually go on any rides , most of the rides he wasn’t tall enough for so he was only going on rides that a little penguin wristband would of done , we questioned this at the kiosk but the staff member behind the till was so rude and it was basically that wristband or he don’t go on rides . Hardly any animals to be seen , there was one lonely elephant that was actually sad to see him pasting up and down didn’t look happy at all . My children have said they don’t want to come back again . Don’t waste your money and take your kids to a zoo your definitely see more animals . WMSP is now as it seems more instrested in the lodges and putting money into them then the actual park and animals .

Have been coming here for years and loved it. Now they have changed their entry system you can only go round once. Queued up for ages going round. Total disaster and won’t be coming back. It has not lessened the congestion it has made it so much worse.

Phone lines are a scam. You sit endlessly in a loop - they are not manned. Very unhelpful - only way to contact is via e-mail with a 5 day turn around. Appalling.

Offering 50% off tickets because some (most certainly not all) teachers have gone on strike is not really fair, when you have sold tickets to many schools coming for their end of term trips. The drive through was excessively busy, taking us 45 minutes just to get through the giraffes. I’ve been coming here for years and bought multiple classes of children, but will never return after this weeks visit. Far too busy, not even lunch or walkthrough entrance for coach drivers anymore and barely any animals to be seen, as they are mostly kept up near the lodges these days.

My son and I had a fantastic day out and I would highly recommend a visit.
The drive through area is huge. Took us over two and a half hours to get round it all. Animal feed is sold for the herbivores with the result that the animals come right up to your car and will eat right out of your hands.
The walk through areas were also great with lots of talks, a sea lion show, and opportunities to hand feed some of the animals including penguins and lorikeets. It was great walking through the lemur enclosure and seeing the animals so close.
Didn't have time to visit the theme park and dinosaur park and we were there before the park opened. You could easily spend two full days here.

Well I have to say very poor
The long lines of traffic to get out as long as it took to drive round the park
With one lonely elephant to end

My thoughts stay clear to expensive and overrated

Still here stuck in traffic

My wife turned up today as an essential carer, having paid full, on the day booking, price for her client. When arriving at the scanning point she was told to return to the ticket office to collect a carer's ticket. This was either a long drive around or, as she chose, leaving her client in the heat and walking back to join a long queue of similarly frustrated carers, all queueing to collect a carer's pass because of the incompetence of the system. This is extremely poor service for the most vulnerable and under privileged. Also, on the website, mobile or laptop, the FAQ's for essential carers does not work! What does work very well though is the annoying little 'buy me now' ticket icon in the bottom left of the screen, vibrating (essentially shouting at you) every few seconds. Just another money grabbing 'profits before people' setup as far as I can see.

You are no longer able to go round the Safari as many times as you’d like which I’ve found every other Safari park I’ve ever been to has offered. They only care about the lodges now. Used to be one of the best, but will deffo travel further to visit longleat now

I found the staff rude and argumentative.

We had chosen WMSP from a list of other places we could have visited. However, the park did not deliver. It felt dated, the animals were distant and we were unable to really get a feeling of being in a wild environment.

The queues were long and when we reached a place where we could physically interact with the animals, we were moved on.

The staff at the theme park were just rude. As we were looking to get out wrist bands for the rides, we had queued, after a member of staff called through to the kiosk. Waited and as we reached the front of the queue to be we were told that the booth was now closed. The member of staff arguing that we should have got there sooner!
They were unwilling to listen and eather than putting customer service at the fore they just argued with us in frint of other people. It was embarrassing nd unprofessional. I am so disappointed at WMSP.

My daughter mentioned that maybe we might consider staying at the chalets. After the treatment that we received we will definitely NOT be doing that.

Unfortunately for the park, I come from a large family, our recommendations on places to visit impacts them chosing where to go. I will definitely be telling them to refrain from visiting WMSP.

Such a shame, as we had such high expectations, and for what we paid, it was a waste of time and money.

VISIT SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Wouldn’t go again . Lot of queuing and bottle necks . Lots of giraffes zebra and rhino ( good ) lots of deer of various sizes ( mostly sitting down away from the road ) a few camels far away and little else visible . I’d recommend a zoo . Disappointing

It started with online tickets.

The tickets are not refundable.
The ticket dates cannot be changed.
The ticket Vehicle cannot be changed.

They do not respond to emails.
Their telephone lines are always busy, with a constant loop to press x to talk to y, with all mailboxes for voice messages being full.

The venue itself is in a massive decline. I have been here a number of times over the last 10 years and it seems to get worse every year. The "Safari" part of the West Midlands Safari park seems to be an after thought and customer support is non-existant.

Better off just going to one of the zoos as you will be able to see more animals.

Been to WMSP several times in the last 8 years as the kids enjoyed it, but we've witnessed it gradually go downhill while the price has gone up and up, Animals seem to get less every year and concentration seems around the lodges now so can't see half the animals as the enclosures have been designed to accommodate the lodges and forgot about the drive through experience! Last visit topped it off taking over an hour to get through the last small stretch of the giraffes whoever planned that bit needs their p45! Better off paying less and going to a local zoo for the day instead! If I wanted to be stuck in 2 hours+ of traffic I'd have a day out on the M6! 😬
