Safari Adventures Mauritius brings to you the first "Lion Encounter" on the island. This exclusive activity is available all year at the Casela Nature & Leisure Park, Mauritius.

This is a unique opportunity available only to the people who are fortunate enough to decide to visit the park at least once in their lifetime. They may feel and study the primitive behaviour of the lions, cheetah and tigers and share their "Pride" of being in their natural state.

We have conducted thousands of walks and interactions over the years. Safari Adventures offers you the safest Big Cat Encounter, a world leader in any Lion, Tiger and Cheetah encounter, and is second to none.

On 12th April 2012 my daughter and I went for the walking with lion experience. The experience we had was a surreal. It was just fantastic and I felt I was one with the lions. The park contains various other animals eg Zebra,Parrots,fishes,trees eg tamararind.vegetation is green and jungle like and they also have a nice cafe and shop for gifts. You must wear a good pair of shoes or trainers and no sunglasses,backpacks or pouches on hips or bottled water in the walk! You will be asked to leave these items behind and pick them later. Firstly,you'll be allowed in a high deck area for observing the lions and tigers at play and you can take some photos. They take a movie and photos on the walk with lions later and you'll be well advised to buy these and not waste your time looking at lions through your own lens! A small fee to pay but it is definitely worth it leave this to the experts. We did take a few photos anyway and thought time would be best spent in close contact and enjoy the experience. Briefing then takes place and the rangers who are fantastic and explain the rules to us. The two lionesses one named Jumanji were then escorted into the jungle area where we walked very close behind the lionesses for over an hour so you should allow atleast 2-3 hours on the site to soak in the atmosphere and sights. The experience was outstanding as we observed lionesses walking,running,playing,jumping onto trees and eating in such close proximity with us. Excellent video and photos that we took home are now beautiful memories. Rangers were excellent,very professional and took great care of us allowing us to get close and touch the lionesses in their own surroundings. Rangers had a very close bond with the lionesses and I felt lionesses were very well looked after in a jungle environment .Later,we were treated to a nice ice cold drink and question and answer session with the rangers which we also enjoyed. There are height and age restrictions so just check prior to booking if you have young children as they may not be allowed. I was so fascinated,I booked a experience with the tigers as well and enjoyed a photo shoot with tigers for a few minutes. I would recommend this fabulous experience to any one.

We visited the adventure park on the 16th of march. We always wanted to touch and be close up to a lion and a tiger, but never got the chance to do so. I was told about Adventure Safari and we had to visit. At first we were a bit nurvous with the do"s and Dont. But as soon as we got going we just loved every minute of it, The tour team we had we just awsome, they explained everything about the lions and they gave you plenty of time to touch and sit by the lions and tigers. It was a day to remember. It was well worth the money and i would definatly recomend the experience to anybody that asks. It was a breathtaken experience, which we will do again.

Having just returned from a 2 week holiday in Mauritius during which my husband and I visited Casela and experienced the interaction with Lions and Tigers I just had to write and tell you how much we enjoyed this once in a lifetime thrill.rn rnThe entire park is beautiful and a joy to walk round but the interactions with your big cats and indeed their devoted keepers was just awesome.rn rnThe animals all look so well cared for and the love between the keepers and animals so obvious to see.rn rnWe have some superb photos taken by your photographers and will cherish these forever, in fact we plan on having them blown up, put on canvas to be proudly displayed on our walls.rn rnWe think you are doing an incredible job and wish you all the very best for the future with this wonderful project.rn rn
