The most beautiful animal park I’ve done - The most beautiful animal park I’ve done, we took 6 hours in total, to do by car and cable car under a beautiful sun, the spaces provided for animals are huge, we had to do at least 6 kilometers in the park so big it is. The valley is just great. It was smooth, no queuing for the cable cars. Parking is provided everywhere to admire the animals in all serenity. Everything is well indicated. An ecstatic day in this park. You can have a picnic or eat on site. I advise you to bring back binoculars sometimes they are far away.

The Cabarcene and its animals - Great visit and sighting of animals where appropriate natural habitat. There were quite a few people but thanks to the experience of the guide, we were able to see all the animals and the bird display.

Spectacular visit to the park of Cabárceno. - The visit to the park was spectacular, it has been in the off-season, not so many visitors have not queued to see the animal areas. I recommend making the visit with Exploring Cantabria, as you are picked up at the door of the hotel and brought back. The guide Pepe wonderful, makes the explanations very enjoyable and I who have reduced mobility helped me to get off and into the van, is very attentive.

Well organised, great tour and tour guide - The tour was easy to book , well organised and the tour guide Pepe was great. The day started off as we were informed about our transport , we were out of the main area so had to pay a surcharge - however we were well informed of this before the day. Pepe picked us up and was great , the other members of the group were all Spanish and we were the only British. Throughout the whole tour however Pepe would translate for us and ensure we had just as good of a time. The tour around the park was lovely, ensuring we had an opportunity to see all the animals and a quick visit to the reptiles at the end. We also got to go on the cable car which was lovely. Pepe was very accommodating and even gave us some restaurant recomendations on the way around. It was good fun and the other members of the group were lovely aswell - despite us not being able to speak a word of Spanish! Thank you for the tour, it was great or what I should say is mucho gracias!

Beautiful experience - I visited Cabarceno naturaleza with guided tour Civitatis. Everything is perfect. Guide Gabriela was efficient and very kind. Really good. Cabarceno is a paradise on earth. Beautiful landscapes and free animals in large green spaces without bars or barbed wire. An experience that enriches the soul of those who love nature and animals. Recommendation to everyone to go there. An experience that will remain in your heart

Good level park - We were a friend and I, who worked in another animal park and we loved the experience, facilities with lots of space, all green, especially of the herbivores you could see a natural behavior for being in the grazing prairies with the appearance that you do not even need to give them fodder to eat, very cool, I am sure that next year when we return north we will pass through there again, since we did not give time to see it whole because of the habit that the rest of parks we have gone to are seen in 2 or 3 hours. The only thing I would add is the use of environmental enrichments especially for carnivores, because they do not have the same encouragement to move as herbivores when grazing and would help them to be more entertained. But come on it is a very nice park and worth going back and forth 😁

Lovely. - We went 11 people to visit the park, if you go first thing in the morning you see it in a morning until 3”30 or so.The falconry show came and we got in the cable car.You can go out to eat out and go back in.

Genial - The park is immense, you can tour it by car and go down in the areas and viewpoints that interest you, the animals look great. It is great the circuit in the cable car that enters you with the general entrance. The reptilary is big. Inside there are free buses that take you from one area to another. If you go to Cantabria and you like animals you can not miss it.
