The staff generally receives positive feedback for being friendly and knowledgeable, although experiences can vary. Cleanliness and maintenance of the park are generally good, but there have been occasional comments about areas needing improvement.
Overall, the African Safari Wildlife Park provides a fun and interactive animal experience, particularly well-suited for families and animal enthusiasts.
