We took our 2 year old recently for a day out whilst visiting on holiday. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, really lovely and helpful. Lots to see, our little one loved the butterflies and Milo the cockatoo who was chatting away to us saying hello/goodbye/what's the craic? The softplay/sand section is also great and full of fun equipment. A great day out followed by a trip to the cafe. Would love to visit again!

Finding ourselves in Donegal on a wet couple of days, we found Tropical World in an online search for something different to do locally. We weren't sure what to expect, and didn't have any children in tow, but we 'mature adults' had a really enjoyable time there and were so glad we went! It was much bigger than we anticipated - there was so much to see, and the individual animal/bird enclosures were thoughtfully planned out and space maximised. An enormous amount of love and effort has clearly been put into this place, and in providing a huge load of information signage about all the creatures and the wider natural world - a great education for children and us adults. The whole area has something to see round every corner......we'd thoroughly recommend a visit here for anyone of any age who enjoys spending time amongst wildlife!

This was so much more than I expected. It was such a pleasant experience, start to finish. The garden centre at the beginning has a really good stock, then on into the animal park itself via a walkway of many interesting and amazing facts. And on to the animal displays themselves. There is a playground, there are covered picnic areas, and we spent a good morning here at Alcorns. There is also a lovely tea room beside this place, highly recommended. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
