Best places: Zoos in Braunstone Town, United Kingdom

Small aviary for getting up close to a wide range of birds, including owls, macaws and kookaburras.

Family-orientated nature centre filled with primates, mammals, reptiles and amphibians, plus dining.

😐 The attraction itself was a great idea but has a lot more potential than what is currently there. The whole story builds up to seeing the Gruffallo, which then doesn't really do anything compared to meeting the other characters, I was expecting a bit more of an impressive ending. My 3 year old loved...

👍👍 Wanted to go to a zoo and thought Chester would be too busy, we've been there before and couldn't get round it in a day as so big and it was going to be a very hot day (last Saturday) and wanted to take our time. Also my son had a blue Peter badge so he got in free and reduced rate at £20 per adult...

👍 I might be biased as tigers are my favourite animal, but seeing this majestic creature so close through the tunnel that goes through the enclosure was phenomenal. I was merely inches away from the tiger in its area which had a variety of equipment and fauna.
