Sitio bonito en plena naturaleza, donde quedarte a dormir comodamente y ver animales en un entorno natural de 1000 hectáreas, con dos restaurantes y servicio de comida en habitaciónes, dispone de safari. Visita muy divertida: puente colgante, actividades, safari, etc * ENTRADAS Oferta por booking, incluye: - visita al zoo, de apertura a cierre tanto el dia de la llegada como el día de la salida del hotel. -Piscina, dia de salida no incluido. -Safari, sólo el día despues de la llegada. -3 ticket de actividades a gastar como quieras entre tiro con arco, camas elásticas con arnés y tirolina (de 40kg-90kg tienen un peso allí y son muy estrictos con eso) - Desayuno. * PARKING No incluido, 5€, solo se paga una vez aunque te quedes más días. Con el ticket puedes salir y entrar cuantas veces quieras. * HOTEL Son cabañas, hechas de ladrillo, pero aparentando ser una cabaña por su forma redondeada y techo de madera. La cabaña mas basica tiene aireacondiconado, TV, armario con mantas, frigorifico y cuarto de baño con bañera de hidromasaje, toallas y jabón, váter. El microondas está en una cabaña comunitaria. La cama principal es cómoda, pero para los que tenéis niños, al ser una cabaña redonda, las camas no se quedan totalmente pegadas a la pared. Dispone de merendero. Estas cabañas están agrupadas en 3 poblados: Watu, Masai y Zulu ***** NO RECOMIENDO***** - EL POBLADO WATU Aunque te digan que este poblado está dentro del zoo, eso no es completamente cierto, ya que acotáron el zoo y ese poblado se ha quedado apartado de este, es el unico que esta apartado y para ir del poblado al zoo y viceversa tienes que estar avisando por telefono a un chófer gratuito que te deja en la entrada del zoo o en la entrada del poblado y tarda entre 5 y 10 minutos. Las 24 horas. No está permitido ir ni en tu propio coche ni andando ya que entre estos dos puntos no se va por el interior del zoo, sino por el extrarradio del zoo y está lleno de acantilados y te puedes perder o caer, además de que está lejos para ir andando. - IR EN VERANO CON ALTAS TEMPERATURAS Mucho menos con bebé. Mucha calor y muchas cuestas, lo que te da mas calor. Hay duchas repartidas por los caminos del zoo pero no están operativas. Hay piscina pero solo para huéspedes y el dia de la salia del hotel no puedes hacer uso de ella, ya que las llaves de la habitación tienes que dejarlas antes de las 11 y la piscina habré de 15:00 a 20:00 y la piscina pertenece al hotel. - EL SAFARI SERENGUETI CON UN BEBE. Muy chulo y tiene asientos pero no lo vas ha disfrutar igual si vas con un bebé. Tiene muchos baches grandes sobretodo desde donde te recogen a donde empieza porque nuevamente ese trayecto no va por dentro del zoo con suelo firme sino por carriles de la montaña lleno de boquetes y baches y si tu hijo es un bebé vas a estar sufriendo por su cuello y cabeza. Te dejan meter al bebé montado en el carro ya que te recogen en el punto 17 y termina en el 28 pero no tiene buen acceso para meterlo y hay que meterlo a pulso. - EXHIBICIÓN DE AVES RAPASES CON BEBES: No te dejan entrar con carrito a pesar de que en el cartel no lo prohíbe, así que tendrás que sacar al bebe del carro y tenerlo al sol durante la exhibición. Ser puntual. si empieza el show puede que te digan que no pases que es peligroso o te puedes encontrar el cordón echado cosa que no hicieron cuando fui. - RESTAURANTE: Hay 2 restaurantes, Barbacoa y Korongo. No dejarse llevar por el nombre porque en el restaurante Barbacoa no vas a comer carne a la brasa ni nada por el estilo... es solo un nombre. Son comidas típicas de parques de atracciones. La comida no está mal pero en general todo que consumes en el parque es caro, así que ir con la idea hecha que o coméis allí o cogéis el coche y compráis algo fuera que lo más cercano está a 8 minutos en coche. - Botella pequeña cocacola 500cl - 3.30€ - Botella pequeña agua - 2 euros - Granizada 9.50€ o 6.50 la primera vez, dependiendo de la botella si la quieres con animalitos o no y rellenarla vale 3.50€ - menú 10 euros lo má barato

I do recommend the experience but it's only an 'alright' zoo and nothing amazing. Unfortunately the animals don't have any friends unless it's regulated - i.e. flock animals. Most of the animals are singular - i.e. 1 alligator, 1 snake, 1 elephant, 1 giraffe, etc... If they improve that, it will be less depressing to watch them in their habitat. LOTS of up-hill walking and with the reported drought, they have turned off the water-misters on the route. That means the much-needed water-misters they put in to cool the tired customers in the dangerous heat are no longer there. I do recommend the Safari if you go there, it's an up-close visit to all the animals you can see from high-up in the 2nd part of the park. The tour guide was amazing and had a good passion for the role. The other talks in the parks - it felt more like us English would be an inconvenience if we listen in as the other people (3 or 4 per) are all Spanish and the talker would have to repeat themselves in English. The meeting points aren't consistent or clear either - we were waiting where it shows on the map and they met up the opposite side and were half-way through their Spanish talk of the Cheaters. Anyway - worth going but take some water, expect to sit down to rest a lot, go to the Safari, and the restaurants are really decent.

Partner and I decided to make a stop at Selwo during our recent trip to Marbella. The zoo is well sign posted and very easy to find with ample parking. The ticket prices are very reasonable and if you go during the week it's very quiet. We go to a lot of zoos and I have to say out of all the ones we visit, the animals here are some of the best cared for that I have ever seen. There is a huge variety to see, with plenty of shadey areas to sit down and rest if you need to get out of the sun for a bit. Be aware that the zoo itself is a lot bigger than it looks initially, little ones may tire from the walking. There is plenty of disabled access as well as plenty of bathrooms. The food and drink seems very reasonably priced. There are several different extra attractions in the park including archery, a zip wire and a safari. All of which cost extra and note that the safari should be booked in advance to avoid disappointment. I would love to return again and highly recommend! Beautiful views of Benahavis also, from several locations around the zoo.

What can I say - it really was an adventure! Visited the park with a family of 4, including pre-school children and everybody enjoyed it. Starting from a welcome photo (which was with really good quality) to a wide variety of animals, it had everything you’d expect from a zoo, but it didn’t end there. They had a long zipline over a pond, a couple of hanging bridges and we also participated in a “safari ride” which was cool. There was an english-speaking guide who talked about the animals while we were driving between them in an open truck, making stops in each enclosure. We could see them up close and also feed zebras. The bird area was also awesome - huge area with a net so you could walk where the birds were flying. Red panda was really active and our favourite this time around. All of the employees understood English, so that wasn’t a problem either. Park was easy to find and access by car, not sure about other means of transportation as it was quite a drive from Benalmadena..

Pleasantly surprised by this place. We went in October, and it was very quiet, with lots of additional attractions closed (zip line, trampolines, some food kiosks etc) but this didn’t bother us. We saw lots of animals we haven’t seen in English zoos, my favourite was the vultures, which are absolutely huge! We paid the extra for the Serengeti Safari and really enjoyed it. It’s only about half an hour, but you get closer to some animals - rhinos, zebra and hippos mainly. There’s also a guide on the bus, and ours spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable and funny. The food wasn’t too bad - hot dog was decent - but it was an expensive day out. For me and my daughter, admission, safari, parking and lunch was close to €100 and we were there for 4 hours. Oh and the toilets are impossible to find! The app didn’t seem to show us where they were either. But when we did find them they were very clean.

Is it expensive? Yes. Is it worth it? Well....we really enjoyed it. The park is clearly well run and all of the animals seem healthy and looked after. There is a good variety of animals and activities to do. We went on the Jeep Safari which was a highlight, but again quite expensive and could have been longer. The park is huge, so prepare for lots of walking. There are plenty of cafes and vending machines for refreshments, and cool water spraying round the paths with good shade. There are things for younger kids to do, like the trampoline jumpers and little rides to go on. There are a couple of large site maps and you can download to your phone once there, if you have internet that is. One thing I despise is having to pay for parking when the entrance fee is already so high, why bother? Buy tickets online for a small discount.
