As a family we have been visiting Linton Zoo since our eldest daughter was 4. Now 20 and on a visit home from Uni she asked if we could spend the day at Linton because of all the happy memories she had. What a fantastic day we enjoyed.The weather was exceptional and showed the spring flowers off throughout the gardens at their best. As it is a small zoological garden it is easy to cover and take in at your own peaceful pace. The animals reflect this and seem tranquil and relaxed and afford excellent & close range views. We enquired about the possibility of a behind the scene tour of the lemurs which we had seen advertised. Even though we had missed the time slots we were delighted to be accommodated and had a truly memorable experience! Patricia was our guide for 30 minutes of very informed unrushed and personal time. The Lemur encounter is highly recommended. The staff remain helpful & knowledgable which helped us all enjoy the close encounter with some of the animals at the reptile house - suitable for all ages. Excellent value for money.
