Experiences with Animals in The East Midlands

We had a great day at the owl centre, our daughter loved it. Sun was out as well we had a picnic as well on the grass.

The LFC tour was a great experience, we really enjoyed the day. It was great value. This makes a great gift. I was really pleased how easy it was to book! No having to create a account, very simple process.

We had the bird of prey experience given to us for a birthday present. We had a great morning and the falconer was extremely knowledgeable. He kept us enthralled the whole time and we learned a lot about birds of prey. We got to handle them afterwards and we all had a go at flying them. Wonderful experience. One word of warning. There’s no seating so it was a bit hard on the legs having to stand for 3 hours. Bring a fold up chair if you can. It was a bit chilly standing in the field, so wear plenty of warm clothing. Highly recommended

Thoroughly enjoyed this experience

We had a lovely time with the Meerkats, there's a lot to see in addition to the time you spend feeding them. We left with big smiles on our faces.

We had a great morning, easy to find location, plenty of opportunity to get close to the birds, lots of information and opportunity to ask questions

A lovely experience with the lemurs. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. A great zoo, seeing different animals. A very good day was had indeed.

My daughter had an amazing day. Thank you to all the staff who made it special for her. It was last minute and they made sure she got today due to voucher expiring. We are new to booking this just to say when booking this experience you only get 5 months to book it instead of 6 This is not their fault!. It covers 6 months over the winter period but its closed one month which is understandable She met Dexter and fed other foxes with Sam Def recommend this experience. Will visit again as a great place to go. Thank you again for a fantastic day out.

My partner and I went on a 90 minute alpaca walk. The first half an hour was introducing us to the alpacas and a health and safety briefing. The remaining hour consisted of being paired up with your alpaca and taking it on an hour's walk. Lots of fun was had, the alpacas were so entertaining with their individual personalities! Would definitely repeat the experience & recommend to others!

The Meerkat Experience was very enjoyable . It was great to get in with the meerkats and learn about themThe Ark caters for rescued animals and does a lot of conservation work. A very worthwhile visit.

Beautiful birds obviously extremely well cared for. Very well run 2 hour experience with their owls. Plenty of opportunities to hold the owls. Lots of explanation & information. An excellent experience.

I attended the Falconry experience at Stratford Park Hotel , what a wonderful three hours. The Falconer was so knowledgeable, had endless amusing anecdotes and information and connected so well with the participants. The birds were so beautiful and to be able to get close to them and take part in the feeding of them was a joy . I thoroughly recommend the experience.
