Outpost Paintball

Reviewed By joannejN1767MU

Took 5 12 year olds to paintball. It was arranged short notice and easy to do. Polite and professional to ensure the boys got into the correct slot and payment was easily done. Arrived and we were not disappointed. The boys were given all the equipment and a really good briefing. The staff were always on the course with them and available to advise with clear instructions. The venue is huge, lots of battle zones with different structures to use. Extremely well organized and a great afternoon, very good value for money. Definitely recommend it for others, as it also has a low impact version for younger kids. Perfect for parties

What a great experience! This was my first time in an escape room so I didn’t really know what to expect, the team we’re really friendly and helpful and Emma, our game operator made us feel really comfortable and was really helpful! My partner and I managed to escape from the Excalibur room with over 6 minutes left! Can’t wait for our next visit!

Every time I come to this zoo I see a different animal so I have a different experience meaning that an annual pass is the best value for money. The zoo is a great all weather attraction because of all of the indoor areas which includes the monkey house, the tropical house, the jaguar house, butterfly house, bat house, the new Islands house and the aquarium. You can also hop on the monorail to get a different view of the enclosures out of the cold. Plenty of picnic area if you don’t want to buy food with huge play zones for children The elephants are always impressive. What a privilege to see the zoo everyone is talking about since the series secret life of the zoo was aired! A great educational experience.
