Comment nous avons noté London Zoo
Notre méthode£31 is steep next to regional zoos, but there is easily a full day here and the money funds ZSL's conservation charity.
Land of the Lions, Penguin Beach and the walkthrough monkey and sloth enclosures are the standouts.
School holidays and sunny weekends get packed, especially around feeding talks. Term-time weekdays are lovely.
A proper family day out with real conservation behind it. Pick your day carefully and it's excellent.
