Twycross Zoo

One of the UK’s most popular zoos, Twycross provides an excellent day’s entertainment for visitors of all ages. The zoo, which has been open for over 50 years, is a well-established attraction in Leicester, and is home to an impressive array of animals, including Gorillas, Giraffes, Leopards and Zebras.

There is an extensive breeding programme going on at the zoo, which means that visitors stand an excellent chance of being able to see baby Bonobos, not to mention many other apes and monkeys, which is sure to delight the kids.

In addition to the animals, the zoo also has a soft play area and several restaurants and cafes, just perfect for when you need to take a pit-stop from all the excitement.
