August 2010 - We had the best family day out at Paradise Valley Springs, the whole park was enjoyable and we loved everything; the fantastic nature walk, viewing, feeding and patting the animals. The lions had to be our favourite part, you have a fantastic enclosure, they were so close and you get a really good look at the magnificent creatures. Patting the cub was amazing too, even watching him interact with the trainer was amazing. We were extremely lucky that we were at the right place at the right time and we got the one in a million chance of patting your newborn baby lion cub (5wks old), our nearly 4yr old daughter still talks about it and we will have photos and memories of the day forever. Thank you so much.

July 2010 - Thank you all so much, this place is such a credit to you. What a wonderful experience. It's just so wonderful we will always remember it as being a very special part of our holiday, and we so appreciate all your hard work with all the paths and just everything. It's so wonderful that children can have such a hands on experience.

June 2010 - That was such an incredible experience! Thank you so much for the 'meet a lion cub' opportunity - it's something I've always wanted to do. I also loved how intimate and hands on the whole park was. A great day out :)
