Skyride reviews

Written by D H

Something to note: they only allow 3 adults per car. The cars have a weight restriction, so the limit each car to 3 adults. You can have a max of 4 people per car, including children.

The Skyride has re-opened after the construction of Cheetah Hunt but remains closed during "slow" days.

Readers' rating:

Great skyride in my opinion. It closes quite a lot though if there is lightning in the distance! Pity it's not longer. 8/10 - D H

Great views of animals! I love Skyrides and most parks have gotten rid of them. The ride was slow to load but if you enjoy skyrides I would recommend it! - Terri Pierce

Nice change of pace sine there are so few skyrides now. Positive points for great viewing of the animals and quick way to get from front to back of park. - Joseph Easter

great and quick way to get around the park. usually not very busy, even on crowded days. it was cool being able to see the animals below you during the ride, also. - Jake Gould

8/10. This is the way to travel in the park. - Nicholas Gammon
