    • Paschal N. ★★★★ irregular working hours. 12 pm, wasn’t opened.
    • Deborah K. ★★★★★ Jarding Reading Garden is one of the most peaceful, serene places in Jo’s. You don’t have to buy or pay money to enter Jardin Garden. It’s totally free!!! There is a woman who sells snacks there and you can choose to buy snacks from her if needs be. It’s the perfect spot for you to sit, think and reflect about life. You can even go on a date or decide to do a little picnic too.

    • Cynnie C. ★★★★★ The visit was a beautiful experience, but the park's infrastructure showed signs of wear, with dilapidated buildings and security that could be improved. Fortunately, a World Bank-funded rehabilitation project is underway, which I hope will not only enhance the facilities but also lead to an increase in animal numbers and better care for them upon completion.
    • Michael E. ★★★★★ It's an old park and not perfectly maintained for commerce, and international tourism. But it serves as an alternative lifestyle to local and international tourists like me who have come all the way to Jos to document history. It is expected that as a national park, it should be better maintained and positioned for international tourism. I sponsored 5 other persons to this tour.
