Jersey Zoo (Durrell Wildlife Centre) A very interesting time spent in the zoo with good size areas for the animals and birds and reptiles. Conservation is to the fore in this zoo which is in a large area to cover. The entry price is £16.00 and it would have been nice to have a single sheet map to navigate the zoo instead of having to pay a further £3.00 for a detailed map. Well worth the visit.

Great interesting small zoo. Lovely setting. Easy to get to on the bus from St Helier . Was nice and quiet when we went but the weather wasn’t great so most animals were inside. Very interesting and informative displays . Cafe was good. Would recommend.

We had a lovely day out here. We went over Christmas and although chilly it was great to see and listen to the zoo staffs engaging people with talks and information. Its really well laid out with areas to picnic or to do as we did and have a takeaway coffee whilst wandering around. Would live to visit again in summer. The zoo had a variety of visitors some with mobility issues which seemed well catered with paths and ramps. Enjoyed it very much and the admission charge is a good price for the time we spent there.

Beautifully laid out, with stunning trees and flowers. The animals seemed well-kept and happy, and viewing was easy - if they were out! Animal welfare seems paramount. The staff are knowledgable and friendly and spent time answering questions about the animals. Lots of conservation information dotted about the grounds, the history of the place, and its successes and for the future.

Jersey zoo is a lovely place to visit. The food was delicious and worth the money. Plenty do see and do for little ones. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see the flamingos on this trip as it was shut for cleaning. The staff are really friendly. The conservation side of it is amazing.

This is a lovely conservation zoo. The animals are well cared for and seem really happy in their surroundings. Loved seeing the Gorilla's and Orangutans up close there are some very unusual amphibians that are endangered and very rare to see in other zoos .I loved the fruit bats too. A must see is the Gerald Durrell story there was an extremely informative lovely lady volunteer giving us lots of information, volunteers are a credit to this zoo. Lots of information on Gerald Durrell an amazing person who has left this wonderful legacy.

We had made the trip to Jersey especially to visit this Zoo. Jersey Zoo is incredibly easy to get to with regular buses from St Heliers. The entrance fee is very reasonable, with various options, concession's and family tickets. The Zoo itself is quite large, I would say that you need to give yourself at least 4hrs. The facilities are all clean and well signed. There’s plenty of toilets and there are changing areas and disabled toilets. There’s also a large restaurant with plenty of options for both hot and cold food on the menus. It is child friendly with plenty of high chairs. We found that the whole sustainability ethos flows throughout the Zoo. The fact that there are students learning their craft and that the zoo is highly engaged in research and reintroducing animals to the wild make this incredibly valuable place, and well worth visiting. The staff we met were all friendly, helpful and informative. The enclosures are generous and well maintained. With clear information and facts about the animals. The animals all looked healthy and happy. And seemed contented and relaxed. We had a wonderful day and however you feel about zoos this is a very special place..we will be returning soon.

I really enjoyed this trip. Wanted to go for years, and it did not disappoint. We had a car so that helped as it is to the north of the island. I think signposting could be better to be picky. Everything was further than you think and the signs don't seem to link up. However, tick box ticked. Nice day.

A great day out. Good bus service from St Helier. A must visit is the Fruit Bats which are an endangered species. At the time they had around 97 bats. The talk was most informative. Nice cafe as well.

We arrived here for opening on a beautiful sunny day with our 9-year-old twins. They absolutely loved their visit - and the orangutans were our favourite enclosure. Not too massive for their little legs and a good range of animals to see. Rangers also good with letting us see some of the creatures get fed. Cafe very pricey but a good range of things to choose from. Clean toilets and a play area for the kids to wind up their afternoon. Excellent bus links too for visitors. Worth the visit!
