Loro Parque (239)

Overcrowded

The park was massively overcrowded when we went to the point it was genuinely uncomfortable. Of course people don’t help things by standing in the middle of the narrow paths to look at maps when it’s that busy, and there’s a lot of rude people pushing past to see the animals. Going into the park itself was chaos with everyone arriving at much the same time from the coaches and being ushered to have your photo taken as you go in. Half as many people would have been too much quite honestly. A great shame as the jelly fish area, penguin enclosure, and shows were all good Not sure how I felt about the Orca show having watched Blackfish, but I still went I guess.

We appreciate you taking the time to share this candid feedback. We are sorry that the volume of visitors and congestion on the pathways made your day feel uncomfortable, particularly on arrival. A visit should allow space to move at an easy pace and connect with the animals and habitats. We also understand that marine animal presentations can raise important questions. Animal welfare guides all of our work, with care tailored to each individual through behavioural observation, veterinary expertise and enrichment. Your comments are valuable as we continue to consider the guest experience with care.
