Review
The zoo and Sea Life centre rescue the day when ride queues swell. Younger children get a proper adventure park without the intensity of Thorpe, and the grounds feel greener than most UK parks.
Our recommendation. Start with the zoo while energy is high, then rides after lunch. Brilliant if one child is 4 and another is 10.
