Going to a zoo soon... Chester is 2 hours away and Twycross is 52minutes

Is it worth going the extra distance for chester and if so... why?

or perhaps twycross is better? never been to a zoo

anybody been to both? Only got people posting who have been to one

I'm thinking twycross myself as its closer but I saw Chester given a mention in the top zoos around the world :s

Although someone else who had been to chester said the atmosphere was depressing soooo I'm not quite sure :S

yeah from Derbyshire aaaand to R34pz, you said that you would go to Twycross because of a Gorilla that you liked, but since hes not there then Chester is better because it has more?

sooo Chester has more even with joe the gorilla?

Would be going with other people but its for my birthday and i've never been to a zoo before soo

I'm ok to drive the extra hour if its worth another 2 hours of my day

can't wait lol... I love capuchin monkeys but comparing the list of animals it seems that Chester has WAY more...

Rhinos, Tigers, Zebras, Cheetahs, Jaguars, Crocodiles (twycross only have dwarf crocs)

Edit: Chester have capuchins as well
