Beautiful park - Beautiful park, right in the mountain. It was warm, animals naturally move less. You know that in advance.
Beautiful stays, the telecabin is highly recommended.

Must go is awesome - The natural landscapes it has and how they care for the animals make it spectacular.Without a doubt the best cared for animal park I have ever seen.They allow their spaces as they should be spacious.You see the animals relaxed and happy not like in other parks I have seen.The cable car allows you to see its splendour and wonderful park from the heights.It impresses you to see elephants and rhinos running freely 🥰I would go again without a doubt.The last area you can see the monkeys loose we loved😍

Well maintained and pretty - The enclosure is very well cared for and so are the animals. The guide was very friendly and since we were children, she made an effort to make us understand it. The cable car has very good views of all the animals and you will have a good time at the heights, they have long lines and other shorter ones depending on the time you have to get on. The only drawback is that the natural park store
It has very high prices and the staff was a bit unpleasant.

Great day out - We went on a organised coach trip from the P&O cruise ship Britannia.it was a wet and rainy day but this did not spoil a wonderful day out . All the animals were in very large areas would not call them enclosures as they are so large.
They all looked healthy and a great range of types.
The cable car was really great even though it was raining the views are amazing as they go over the animals.
Well worth the cost.

A wonderful experience - Cabarceno is a must stop if you are in Cantabria and like animals, being able to see bears or elephants from the heights of the cable car is a unique experience. Even more so, see them up close. The facilities are very spacious and although it is true that in some cases it is difficult to find the animals considering that it is for their sake it is more than understandable.
I don’t give it the 5 stars because the farm that seemed quite sloppy compared to the rest and the area of reprils and sea lions too small, even stands out with the park. Otherwise don't doubt it.

Visit to the park in July - Huge and particularly nice park where I was with family. It's very interesting to spend the day. It is well cared for, both the environment and the animals. I will raise 2 objections:
1. It is very poorly marked, you can easily get lost
2. The funicular takes you from end to end and does not allow you to see the animals up close, also, while we were inside it stopped 3 times and we stayed inside suspended.

Fully horrible imitation of WildLife - Badly badly managed imitation of Wildlife. Absolutely ridiculous funicular routes- you spent twice of 3 times at least 20-40 min in the queue when change from Blue line to Pink one- be careful its mostly stupido managerial non-explainable trick in this place.
Not seen animals- just hidden on distance.
Not clean toilets- lines in poor kiosks.
Absolutely useless Map - even not scheme- can’t read it properly.
Overpriced - more €70 for two!!😳 never more

A big scam. - Very bad experience, the animals in very bad condition, when there were, because there were parts where there were not even animals such as lynxes. Very little quantity. For example: In the wallaby enclosure there were only four of these and a single emur that was not with its species and had nothing to do with them.
The animals did not have places of shade (or trees), not even the elephants had them, although they needed them to feed themselves.
Not to mention the exorbitant prices. We were 4 people in the mid-low season for a price of €130. The ride on the funicular was also paid separately, as were the shows. I wouldn't go back even if they didn't pay.
