    An excellent experience. Although we have lived in Essex for over 30 years, we did not know of its existence until recommended by a friend. We didn't expect lions or tigers and the animals they have are delightful, as are the staff. It was great to be able to walk amongst the wallabies and other abimals.

    They have an excellent cafe and the food was high quality.

    We would definitely recommend Essex Tropical Wings World of Wildlife.

    Can,t belive last review! had a wonderful day at Tropical Wings World of Wildlife. Plenty of directional signs from my direction, and the smell was coming from the farm next to Tropical Wings so not there fault. The childrens rides were £1 (average price).

    We found the staff very helpful and very informed (they were able to answer all the questions put to them by my grandson) and the feeding times and bird shows were very entertaining.

    The smell of silage spoiled our visit and the cost of the diggers and tractors lost the plce being value for money! The animals looked well looked after and the otters were cute. The toilets were clean and the shop reasonably priced. No brown signs to direct you to there. Felt overall Essex Tropical Wings World of Wildlife was an ok experience but the smell that was there on the day of the visit was too overpowering.

    A thoroughly enjoyable day out for my son. We visited having spotted Essex Tropical Wings World of Wildlife when driving by and it had a lot more than I was expecting. He loved everything we did, but his favourite part was feeding the wallabies, closely followed by driving the miniature tractors and operating the diggers. I thought it was good value for money and would definitely recommend it for a day out.

    Animals are well looked after. Essex Tropical Wings World of Wildlife is a good place to visit and is surely on its way too becoming a great zoo. Just needs bigger animals

    I noted a recent review, rating this place at 1, which frankly I think is ridiculous and that pushed me to add my own.

    Absolutely loved the place (even though I didn't get time to see any of the displays put on by staff or try out the cafe) and for the price it's a great place to visit. Particularly liked the chatty birds.

    If you're looking for a smaller day out than something like Colchester Zoo, involving animals then you can't go wrong.

    Will definitely be back. ...

    My 4 year old nephew enjoyed himself. Staff, value for money. I would never return to this venue. I did not find it value for money and I found staff to be unhelpful, almost rude.

    Last week I had the pleasure of visiting one of the largest Butterfly Houses in the country. It's part of the Tropical Wings World of Wildlife at South Woodham Ferrers in Essex and I have to admit that it came as a complete surprise to me. I say that because I must pass it at least once a week and, although I knew it was there, I had absolutely no idea of how big it was or what creatures inhabited it.

    For those not familiar with the area I should perhaps explain that Tropical Wings is actua ...
