...“There’s a sign to Woburn Safari Park!” I shouted, so hubby left the M1 at Junction 13 and followed the clear signs. Sadly, after checking their website, I found out that there is no public transport to Woburn Safari Park.

It is 8 miles from Milton Keynes. *** Car Safari – Part 1 *** We chose first to follow ...

...our vouchers to get into Woburn Safari Park. I had very vague memories of visiting there as a child myself and knew I’d enjoyed it. So after some frantic present opening first thing in the morning, we set off south down the M1. Woburn is a small town just south-east of Milton Keynes and is home to the safari park and Woburn Abbey. It is easily accessible from J13 of the M1 or the A5. It is fairly central for most places situated about an hours drive ...

A few yards further and we paid our entrance fee (details at the end of the review) and were also handed a map of the park. For an extra £1.50 we purchased a commentary tape which can be played as you drive around the safari circuit. This is also available on CD. Guide books can be bought for another small fee but there weren’t any in stock on the day we ... Read review

...Tesco Clubcard vouches I spotted Woburn Safari Park. We had already used the vouchers for a number of theme parks so thought this would make a nice change.
