Longleat - worth a visit?

I've not been to Longleat so I can't comment TBH, but I've recently been to Yorkshire Wildlife Park and as Longleat is more established, if you like wild animals, you should love it. I took around 800 photos at YWP and have every intention of returning in the near future. It was a fascinating day out to see and hear those lions roar. Sends a shiver down your spine.
 
Went to Longleat last week. Fantastic place. Well worth the visit.
 
Plenty of other stuff to shoot at Longleat, not just the animals. Some lovely areas of the estate if you want to explore it, plus the gardens, sculptures, etc.

And the monkeys are VERY good at stripping anything loose from your car - in fact, you might not even realise things were loose, but to monkey fingers they are!

Here are a couple I've taken in the past...

I've been there twice. It's one of the better safari parks to visit with a camera. Bit of advice. If you get there early, do the walkaround first then the drive second. There will be less cars that way.
If you enjoy and want to go again. For my birthday last year, my other half took me on their private tour. The park was closed because it was February, so one of the staff drives you around in their land rovers. Amazing way to see Longleat.
 
We went on the double decker there. Saves the car being ripped to bits!!
