West Midlands Safari Park ranks fourth in Tripadvisor UK zoo list
West Midlands Safari Park ranked fourth in Tripadvisor's UK zoo rankings, based on a 4.1 rating from 7,375 reviews. The Worcestershire attraction’s result came as Tripadvisor’s traveller favourite rankings put three of the top 15 zoos in the West Midlands.
Joanne Hammick on the ranking
Joanne Hammick, the park’s managing director, said: “We're absolutely delighted to be recognised by Tripadvisor as the fourth best zoo in the UK.” She added that it was “a fantastic achievement for the whole team here at West Midlands Safari Park,” and said the result reflected “the passion, care and commitment that goes into creating memorable experiences for our guests every single day.”
The ranking gives visitors a quick comparison point before they book a day out. It also places the park among a small group of West Midlands attractions that visitor feedback pushed into Britain’s top 15 zoos.
West Midlands zoo rankings
West Midlands Safari Park’s place behind Shropshire’s Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World in Telford left the region with two of the top-ranked zoos in the country. Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World claimed second place nationally with a 4.7 score from 6,427 reviews.
For readers choosing between zoo visits, the numbers now separate the two most prominent West Midlands entries in Tripadvisor’s list. West Midlands Safari Park’s four-mile safari drive remains part of the attraction’s draw, with elephants, lions, rhinos, tigers, giraffes and zebras among the animals visitors can spot on the drive.
Tripadvisor visitor feedback
The ranking is built on visitor reviews, not a judged award panel, so the score reflects how guests rated their own experience. That means the park’s 4.1 rating and 7,375 reviews are the figures a visitor can weigh against other UK zoos when deciding where to go next.
West Midlands attractions also outranked zoos in London, Blackpool and Edinburgh on the same list. For anyone planning a visit, the practical takeaway is simple: Tripadvisor’s latest zoo rankings place West Midlands Safari Park firmly among the country’s better-rated options.
