Definitely Recommend

Got bought this as a Christmas present from my girlfriend, really enjoyed the experience and meerkats were so funny with their different mannerisms. The fact you got to see and feed 2 different groups was a bonus as well. We are already looking at booking other experiences here and redoing the meerkat experience we enjoyed it that muxh, definitely recommend.

70th birthday treat

Everything was straight forward and simple and just flowed. The staff were helpful and informative. Brilliant time overlooking nearly the whole of London. Obviously the weather was slightly cloudy up there but the view was second to none. We sampled a drink and it went to our heads as we were so high up.
