Casela Park, opened in 1979 as a bird sanctuary, has evolved into a 4,500-hectare nature reserve offering a variety of leisure activities. Nestled between the Rempart and Tamarin Rivers, the park houses native and exotic species, with a focus on its 1,500 birds from 140 different species, including the rare Mauritius pigeon and kestrel. Visitors can embark on an exciting African Safari, encountering zebras, rhinos, and more. Unique experiences like breakfast with a giraffe or a walk alongside a lion are also available. Thrill-seekers can enjoy activities like ziplining, Quad Biking in Yemen Reserve, Camel Rides, and Big Cats Interactions. For younger adventurers, a petting farm, the Pangia Kids Park, and the Tulawaka Gold Coaster ensure a fun-filled family day out.

    My husband and I had a wonderful day here. We arrived here later than originally planned which unfortunately meant many of the activities we wanted to do were booked for the day. We also queued for over an hour and a half which was quite frustrating. I strongly recommend pre booking activities before arrival and arriving early. Despite this, we had a really great day. Because most the activities had sold out, they included a safari on the tour which was the highlight for me. They also included the toboggan but we decided not to do this activity as the queue was always extremely long and we didn’t want to spend time queuing again. It was incredible being able to get so close to animals, walking through the giant tortoise park and seeing zebras and ostriches so close we could have stroked them. It was quite sad walking around the big cats areas as many of the enclosures were quite small, I hope they get time to roam around larger areas when the park is not open to visitors. Some of the animals such as the hyenas were noticeably frustrated, pacing back and forth which was hard to see. All in all, I would recommend this attraction to people. We would love to do the high ropes and bridge if we visit again in the future.

    Casela Nature Park was a pleasant experience overall. The safari was enjoyable, and the staff were friendly. Tulawaka was thrilling, although the long queue was a bit of a downside. I noticed that the cages could use better maintenance, and the park itself felt like it used to be nicer. However, it was still a fun visit, and I had a great time.

    Great times were had, best to try out the safari and walk with lions. Will take you time to get tickets up to 1 hr. If you want to do safari you can go straight on the shuttle from the entry to the safari area, Highly recommend all activities

    **Note:** If you've booked any activities, arrive 1 to 1.5 hours early to avoid missing them, as I did. Don't make the same mistake. I highly recommend the roller coaster ride—there's no need to be scared since you control the speed. The views from up there are breathtaking.

    We absolutely loved our experience here from the coaster to walking with lionesses and the ATV safari! The staff truly went above and beyond! The lionesses are not sedated and were very active and have free will to roam as they please during the walks. A special shout out to Robert who made our experience even better!
