This activity takes place on the banks of Riviere du Rempart in a separate area of the Safari.
On your arrival, the Safari Adventure team will welcome you and consecutively will brief you with a short introductory chat on the lions and on the safety measures which should be taken during the adventure and the time you will spend with the lions.
The guests will then be introduced to the lions and their handlers. The full activity including the visit to Casela park lasts a couple of hours (3-5 hours).
From the moment you meet the lions, your adventure shall begin. Under the coolness of the trees you can take pleasure in viewing the lions from very close, see them playing and hopping on the rocks of the river banks and scaling the trees. The lions roam freely amongst the participants giving them the unique opportunity of being in close contact with them. With the supervision and guidance of the lions handlers, you can get even closer, and experience from first hand how it is to walk with the lions, pet the lions and to play with them. The adventure will end with refreshment time.
After the walk, refreshment is offered and explanations about the reproduction and conservation program will be provided.
When you order this activity you will also get free tickets to the Casela park!
Casela Park: The Park is located besides the Rempart Mountain with magnificent views of the countryside rolling down the west coast of Mauritius. The park is a true animals sanctuary. It is home to 150 species of birds (and about 1500 birds) from 5 different continents, including the lovely long necked Pink Pigeons which until recently were threatened with extinction. The pink birds can be seen alongside hundreds of other exotics species from Asia, Australia, Africa and the America.
The park also includes a petting farm. The petting farm is a true heaven for children where they can meet and pet “Bambi” the deer, lori the cockatoo and Cecile the wild boar amongst other animals.
A great lesson of love and care to animals is taught by the staff of the farm.
