Good Points: Nice day out
Bad Points: Abit run down
General comments: I visited Dudley zoo on the 12/05/08. It was very quiet being a Monday afternoon which was nice and the weather was lovely. The food is quite expensive but it usually is at places like this. In my opinion some of the animal enclosures are not to great and leave you feeling a bit sorry for the animals, the Orangutans looked bored and cramped which did not seem very fair. Some of the animals I had been looking forward to seeing where not there which was disappointing and the sign posting is not very easy to follow as it doesn't seem to take you where it says. Overall it isn't a bad place but it needs doing up, the safari park is much better.

Dudley Zoo and Castle looks a bit run down to me and I think it could do with some funding, but a nice day out for younger children - maybe being a adult made me feel sorry for the animals. Luckily when I went the weather was nice, it only took around 2hrs to walk around the zoo, but it tired the kids out because of the hills.

A nice zoo if rather hilly. The bird and reptile house are very good and most enclosures are well made, the exception being the dreadful tiger pit enclosure. The lemurs have a brilliant area as do the chimps. It takes about 2 hours to get around and is well worth a visit.

What a pleasant surprise Dudley Zoo and Castle was! Took a group of 6 young people (age 17) & 2 staff for an usual activity day. Car park wasn't signposted - neither was the entrance. All looked a bit bleak when we arrived but once we had paid (good student rates) there were some real treats. Wear comfy shoes and a few layers to enjoy the full extent of this jewel of the Black Country! Set against backdrop of castle, we were treated to an enormous variety of sights: penguins, reptile house, ...
