Tropical World is one of Leeds’ most exciting attractions, filled with animals and plants from across the globe. Step inside and you’ll walk straight into hot, humid rainforests, dry deserts, and even a nocturnal house where day turns into night! It’s like travelling across continents without ever leaving Leeds.

The adventure begins with colourful butterflies fluttering above your head and exotic plants growing all around you. As you explore, you might meet cheeky meerkats, slithering snakes, brightly coloured parrots, and even crocodiles. Each area is designed to show how different animals and plants survive in their natural habitats, from the jungle to the desert.

Fun fact: Tropical World is home to one of the largest collections of tropical plants outside of Kew Gardens in London, and it’s famous for its butterflies that often land right on visitors’ shoulders!

During your visit, you’ll walk through glasshouses and animal zones, spotting creatures from every corner of the world. Look out for the fascinating nocturnal animals like fruit bats and bush babies, or stop and watch the koi carp glide through the ponds. Tropical World isn’t just about looking—it’s about feeling the heat, hearing the animal calls, and discovering the wonders of the natural world.

This trip includes amazing encounters, fun stories, and chances to get up close to creatures you might never have seen before. It’s not just a zoo—it’s a journey through nature’s most incredible environments.

So get ready to wander through rainforests, deserts, and caves, meet animals from every continent, and discover how life survives in some of the most extreme places on Earth!
