"What an amazing experience. Interaction with the rhinos was absolutely unbelievable, the three rhinos all have different personalities. The female was so receptive to feeding and I was able to feed her and even tickle behind her ear.

"This was for my son Ty's 14th birthday he absolutely loved this personal experience. The rhino are so beautiful and huge but never did we believe to be so close to these huge animals and feed them and get them to sit and lie down to tickle and stroke them these are beautiful animals.

This was truly special!"

"It was brilliant. The keeper Dan was really lovely so informative. The whole experience was way better than I thought it would be, also went on for longer which was brilliant. £130 for 20 minutes is not good value for money but he went over that. We're glad he did he was lovely and made it a brilliant day."

"Had a great time on the experience. I didn't think we would get to so close to the rhinos even though they were in their pen. Pippa was really nice and gave us lots of info about the rhinos. She answered any questions we had. I have recently gained a HNC Animal Care and this is the career I am interested I pursuing, to get behind the scenes was great. Will do another experience at Folly Farm."

"It was an excellent experience. Every member of staff we encountered was friendly, kind and very helpful."

"What an incredible experience, better than could have expected. Tom our guide was very insightful and happy to answer all the questions demonstrating a great knowledge. He has very good personal skills and never made you feel like there was a time limit or anything was too much trouble. Being so close to the rhinos was amazing and in a more secluded section made it more personal. Highly recommend."

"Wow what an experience! We bought this experience for our 12 and 10 year olds and left it as a surprise until it was feeding time. Their faces were a picture, they were able to get up very close and touch the rhino which they and the rhinos seemed to enjoy. Myself and the children were able to ask lots of questions and wasn't rushed with the experience. Definitely worth doing, already looking at the next."

"The keeper was very informative and gave great instructions on what we had to do. As it was just the two of us, we had great hands on experience and she gave brilliant information on the rhinos."

She was patient, calm, extremely knowledgeable and just simply brilliant. We cannot thank her enough for making the experience so special. He will never forget this, and neither will we. It really was amazing. Thank you Meg!"

The animals were incredible, I would happily travel to do it again."

"The children had a fabulous time, feeding the rhinos. Callum the keeper was brilliant, explaining everything to the children. His knowledge of the rhinos was excellent and he answered all their questions. An added bonus at the end were the cuddly toy rhinos which the children loved. Would highly recommend this experience."

"Big thank you to Rachel for an amazing giraffe experience. My daughter and I love feeding the giraffes. We have done it every year for my daughter's birthday since she turned 8. I think it's become a birthday tradition! It was so nice to meet Rudi up close and to learn about the giraffes again."

"We came for a holiday and this was something we booked on the Monday we came. The farm was amazing and there was so much to see and do. The rhino experience was by far the best ever. We got to see the rhinos, feed them, touch them and learn all about them. The keeper who was with us was fantastic and she said that it was her second experience on her own and she was amazing. I would highly recommend."

"Wow! We had the experience for two for my husband's 50th. Wonderful animals, hand fed them carrots, stroked their cheeks, honestly the most memorable day keeper was super friendly and extremely knowledgeable too."

"Our rhino experience was fantastic. The animals were beautiful, characterful and engaging and the keepers were very knowledgeable and immensely patient answering our many questions. We learnt a lot about the behaviour and relationships between the individual rhinos and also about the national breeding programme, which was fascinating. Loved our experience more than words can accurately convey."

"I booked the rhino feeding experience for my partner’s birthday. Thankfully she loved it! We both did. Dylan the rhino keeper was very informative and easy to speak with. It was lovely to see how he interacted with the rhinos and is obviously very good at his job. He answered all our questions and didn’t rush us out. It was super fun getting to know these gentle animals up close."

Really incredible experience would love to do it again. Absolutely amazing truly incredible experience worth every penny, would love to do it again."

"What an amazing experience this was, thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The keeper explained the process and was very informative and pleasant all the way through. Got to feed and stroke the rhinos like they were horses, still on a high about it a week later. Thank you Folly Farm for an unforgettable experience."

"Really enjoyable. The rhinos were so cute, my favourite animals, it was really interesting. I got to meet Glyndwr, the first rhino born in Wales, and his mother and father and the rhino Manny. I got to feed them leaves and carrots. Manny loved the carrots then at the end I got a cuddly rhino which I called Manny. It was extremely fun, definitely good for a birthday present."

"I bought this experience for my son for his 10th birthday and it didn’t disappoint. Jack, the keeper was very engaging, knowledgeable and patient with his younger visitor. Getting up close to all the rhinos, feeding them and petting them is an experience my son and I won’t forget. I can’t recommend this highly enough."

"We had such an amazing time yesterday. Our 11 year old and 13 year old just adored meeting and feeding the rhinos and were lucky enough to meet the whole herd, including the super cute baby Glyndwr. The keeper (Callum) was fantastic, patient and full of information. We felt so welcome and special to be able to go behind the scenes. I cannot recommend the experience highly enough!"

"This was the most amazing animal experience I’ve been fortunate to do. The talk was not only educational but it was a real privilege to be up so close and have contact with these truly beautiful and lovely rhinos. I would wholeheartedly recommend if you have the opportunity. A special treat for a voucher purchased in lockdown I would like to say thanks again to all involved dream come true!"

"My nieces loved the rhino experience. The keepers Jack and Callum were fantastic. Being able to get so close to them and the keepers answering our questions and we learnt a lot and it was very interesting. Best of all was being able to feed them and especially baby Glyn."

"I bought the rhino feeding experience as a gift for Christmas for the wife as it’s her favourite animal. All day she was worrying in case she was expecting too much and may be left disappointed. As it turned out she was overjoyed as it was better than she had anticipated and in her own words..."wow I’m speechless". Already planning to return to see the baby early next year."

"Exceeded all expectations! We were lucky to meet all three rhino and Alan the head keeper. Dakima, Manyara and Nkosi were happy to feed from us and allowed us a tickle. Alan was very friendly very knowledgeable and a credit to Folly Farm. He told us about the beautiful animals and showed us around the rhino house which was spotlessly clean. Highly recommend this experience a memory lasting forever."

"A great experience as I have now done three of the four experiences. As with all the others, I have learned such a lot and have a better appreciation for their life. The zoo keeper was able to inform and answer all my questions. With only the penguin experience to complete the set I look forward to a return in the near future."

"I arrived at Folly Farm to be suprised with a rhino experience from my mum. It really was the best experience as rhinos are my favourite animal and I didn't even know it was possible to get that close to the rhinos. The keeper was amazing, it was very clear how passionate he was about rhinos. He was so friendly and easy to talk to. Thank you so much, I loved it."

"A fantastic, once in a lifetime experience with a very knowledgeable, committed keeper. This was well worth the money. We learnt so much and could even tell the different personalities of the rhinos by the end of it. This is the perfect gift for someone. Well done Folly Farm!"

"We had a wonderful time doing the rhino experience. We enjoyed talking with the keeper, she was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. We absolutely loved getting to feed and pet the rhinos. It was the highlight of the trip for us, and we can’t wait to go back!"

"My son got to meet and feed the rhinos yesterday. This experience was exceptional. To come so close to such a forceful looking animal and seeing their softer side was fantastic. We were shown around the experience by Rachel and her enthusiasm shone through. We never felt rushed through the experience and actually left feeling we were given more than expected. Highly recommended. 10 out of 10."

"All I can say is amazing to be that close to these beautiful animals and to feed them the rhino keeper was informative and for me it was a dream come true. Fantastic day."

"Great day out. Keeper really good, made the day with her knowledge and comments. Giraffes next hopefully!"

"We had the most fantastic experience with the rhinos and the keeper. The keeper was very friendly, gave us lots of information and his love for the animals poured out of him. This was a special gift for my husband and son and they had the most amazing time. We would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. Thank you for such a perfect experience and making some dreams come true."

"Bought as a gift, would highly recommend this experience."

"My son thoroughly enjoyed his feeding experience, the keeper gave an excellent talk and was well worth the money."

"Absolutely the best thing I did this Summer holidays, can’t wait to go back and do another experience."

"It was a Christmas present for my daughter who is 11 and I was an accompanying adult. What an experience it was, I didn’t realise how close you would be allowed and the keeper was very knowledgeable. Can’t recommend the experience or the zoo enough."

"My daughter celebrated her 10th birthday with you and she did the giraffe and rhino experience. We did enjoy feeding the giraffes but I have to say that the rhino experience was excellent. Jack who looks after the rhinos made the session extremely informative. You could tell he loves his job and really enjoyed spending time with the animals. He is a credit to Folly Farm."

"My other half and I had an absolutely amazing time feeding the rhinos. Rachel the keeper was so friendly and informative. Was a perfect addition to our first time trip to South Wales. Such amazing animals so gentle and full of personality, was great fun to get to feed and pet them, will most likely come back the new baby is born."

"It’s not every day you get to meet a rhino, but three in one go? I’m still on cloud nine days after and cannot wait to have another experience. Jack the Keeper made my time even better, he answered any silly questions I might have had and gave a wonderful insight to his job and to the rhinos themselves. It takes a lot to really impress me and feeding and stroking three rhinos was just incredible."

"I had the rhino experience as a Christmas present from my family and it was amazing from start to finish. Being close to these incredible animals, touching and feeding them was a real privilege. The keeper obviously loves her job and the animals and talked enthusiastically about them. I learned a lot. This is not a once in a lifetime experience as I am saving to do it again."

"I purchased the rhino experience for two for my boyfriend, the experience was incredible! The rhinos were amazing! It was great seeing them up close, being able to feed them and pet them, one of the rhinos even let us rub his belly! So adorable. Jack was very informative, we learnt so many interesting facts. I would definitely recommend this experience. Worth every penny!"

"My wife bought me the rhino visit as a Christmas present and it was amazing, the keeper knew so much and was super informative, the rhinos themselves were adorable, with distinct personalities that I loved meeting and touching. I was a bit sad there was a fence in the way until Dakima charged it, then I was very glad it was there!"

"The experience was awesome. I really enjoyed myself I would consider doing it again and consider anyone else to take part great opportunity to get up close and touch a rhino"

"Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to do the experience, will definitely remember this day! Jack was amazing answered all our questions, was very down to earth and had a lot of knowledge and passion about the animals that he cared for. After meeting Jack and the rhinos today we would definitely come back to do another rhino experience, the rhinos were very happy and well cared for."

"Wow what an amazing experience. Absolutely thrilled to get up close to the rhinos today. What gentle giants they are fantastic to learn so much about them from keeper Rachel. I won this experience as a mother’s day gift ( thank you Folly Farm) and what a fantastic way to spend the day. Will definitely be looking at booking another experience with other animals at Folly Farm."

"Myself and my wife booked to do the lion and rhino experiences. It was a great day made all the better by the staff who could not do enough for us."

"It was superb. Keeper Jack was friendly, kind and informative. To get up close to not just one but two of these awesome animals is beyond words. Don’t think about it. Do it."

"Had a fantastic time I would recommend to all and have. The rhino keeper was great, thoroughly professional, knowledgeable and obviously had a great care for the animals. Put another visit on my Christmas list already."

"Fantastic birthday present from the children and grandchildren. The rhinos are my favourite animals at Folly Farm so meeting and feeding the two females was awesome. Jack the keeper was very knowledgeable and the tour of the rhino house and background talk was very interesting. Jack was very good in ensuring that both the animals and myself were comfortable in each others presence. Feeding carrots and branches to the two females was followed by some back scratching. To be so close to these wonderful animals and having contact with them was a privilege I will remember for many years to come. All the best with the breeding programme and I look forward to many more visits. Thanks for a great experience and day out!"

"Fantastic information and interesting too."

"Had the best experience the rhinos were both really interested in taking the food from us which gave us an amazing experience. Jack the keeper was informative and we had a brilliant time, rhino feeding now up there with giraffe feeding, I can’t pick a favourite."

"This visitor just left a rating."

"What an excellent experience! Rachel and Pippa were fab hosts, so knowledgeable and keen to explain answers to every question. Maya thoroughly enjoyed her time with the rhinos. Would highly recommend to others."

"I was absolutely ecstatic when I received this as a gift for my 23rd birthday. I have been obsessed with rhinos for years! Never in my life did I dream of actually getting up close and personal with one let alone three! Jack the keeper was amazing and answered every question I had. He was patient and could see how much I loved spending time with these amazing animals. Each rhino had their own personality and were very gentle, you can really see the time and effort the keepers put in to making the rhinos trust them. Thank you so much Folly Farm and my sister Nia for honestly the most incredible experience of my life!"

"It was one of the best experiences I have ever had. The keeper, Jack was very friendly and explained the behaviour of the rhinos, how they act and their diet and informed me of their endangered status. The rhinos themselves were brilliant with their own personalities and touching them and feeding them was something I will never forget."

"My daughter, Teagan, took part in the rhino experience for her 13th birthday. She had a wonderful time learning about these critically endangered Eastern black rhinos and the keeper, Jack, was most informative and clearly passionate about the animals in his care. Teagan loved feeding Dakima and even stroked her! I would definitely recommend the rhino experience as an unusual gift to anyone!"

"Top notch. The animals were amazing. The fellow that did the experience, I think his name was Jack, was great. Very patient, and knowledgeable and you could tell he cared a lot about what he was doing. The other staff we interacted with on the way to get there were all super friendly and helpful as well."

"What a pleasure to see your three rhinos respond and interact with Jack and, consequently, my son and myself. The long travel from British Columbia was well rewarded by this experience. Appreciation for these magnificent animals and their contribution to our world has been greatly enhanced."

"An excellent day out at Folly Farm and the experience with the rhinos was just the best. Amazing to get to feed and stroke Dakima and Manyara. Nkosi only had a wave but was just as impressive. Also impressive was the way that Jack and Kim looked after them all. It was a privilege to be able to get so close to such incredible creatures. Well done Folly Farm and your amazing staff for contributing to such important conservation work."

"Excellent rhino experience! The keeper was so helpful, shared so much insight into how the rhino lives, all the questions the girls had about rhinos, he was excellent. A truly memorable experience."

"A wonderful experience. My husband and step daughter took part in this for his birthday and both absolutely loved it! The animals are well kept and happy, their welfare is clearly everybody’s number one priority. They are free to come up to you, and leave as they wish. As it turned out all of the rhinos were more than happy to interact fully, take food from their hands and have a good old fuss. One even rolled over for his tummy scratching. The keeper, Rachel who looked after them was both friendly and knowledgable. She was especially good at encouraging our daughter to get stuck in. They weren’t rushed through, and were encouraged to take as long as they wanted. Thank you also for the teddy rhino at the end, she hasn’t put hers down since!"

"Folly Farm has been a huge part of my childhood and to now share this with younger members of the family was great. I was so excited when Folly Farm got rhinos and offered an up close experience with them. I got bought the experience for my birthday and it was amazing getting up close to such gentle giants who love a carrot! The zoo keeper's passion for his job and love of the animals came through in the discussion we had. Definitely an experience I will never forget."

"Absolutely amazing! Was so brilliant to touch, feed and stroke the rhinos snd it shows you how they're just like any other animal but just very large, special and endangered! I loved feeding them and them licking my hand and sitting down for scratches. The keeper with us was also so informative and was engaging and interesting! I wouldn't change anything at all about the experience. One thing that could be improved is making it more clear where the meeting point is with perhaps a sign. This was an amazing experience and we'd love to do it again."

"Breathtaking! Such beautiful animals and wonderful to see so close and feed. The keeper was so informative and patient whilst I asked so many questions. Fabulous experience."

"My son had an absolutely amazing experience hand feeding the rhinos at Folly Farm. We traveled from Essex just so he could do this. The keepers were so friendly and full of advice about these wonderful animals, it really is an experience Aaron will not forget."

"We enjoyed seeing and feeding the rhinos up close and thought it was a really good experience. We also liked that the experience included a rhino teddy for each person at the end. However, we do feel that the price is a little high for a 20 minute experience.  "

"It was very good! And I enjoyed feeding the rhinos the carrots and the hay, the keeper was very talkative and had loads of Information, which was nice."

"It was such a delight to feed the rhinos. We were absolutely amazed by their lips! Who knew? Diolch yn fawr."
