The Red Panda Experience launched
Would you like to meet a Red Panda up close?
This fantastic special face to face, interactive meet and greet is with two of our wonderful Red Pandas.
You can buy this amazing experience for yourself or for a loved one or friend. If this is a gift, you will receive an ‘Experience Certificate’ to give as a present. This can then be redeemed when they book their experience for a date to be arranged with us.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
- Entry into Paradise Park*
- Each experience session typically lasts thirty minutes.
- An introductory briefing by one of our Red Panda Keepers
- Then the really exciting bit… it’s off to the enclosure where you will come face to face with these wonderful Red Pandas. You will be able to hand-feed, stroke, take photos, and maybe one will even sit on your lap!
- Opportunity to ask our Keepers any questions you may have.
- You will be given a complimentary drink voucher to use in one of the Park’s cafes.
- You can then enjoy the Park for that day and before you leave you will receive a certificate as a memento of your experience.
- Included in the price, Paradise Park makes a £25 donation to the Red Panda Network for each Red Panda Experience booked. The Red Panda Network is committed to the conservation of wild Red Pandas and their habitat through the education and empowerment of local communities.
It’s an amazing experience, so don’t forget your camera!

I have fed red pandas in many zoo’s but it’s my first real close up, hands on encounter and I would do it again in a heartbeat. ***** a 5 star experience (if I could give 10 I would).
