Casela World of Adventures Admission — Safari, Aviary & Big Cats in West Mauritius
Spend a day among zebras, aviary birds and the Big Cats Kingdom at Casela World of Adventures, a compact reserve on Mauritius’s west coast offering safaris, rides and family-friendly encounters. Plan for at least a half-day, closed shoes, and advance booking for predator experiences.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed shoes
Closed shoes are compulsory for many attractions and will let you move between savannah trails and activity platforms comfortably.
Book predator activities early
Big Cats activities have limited slots, aren’t available on Sundays, and may require basic English or French—reserve these in advance.
Allow time between activities
Casela recommends 45–60 minutes between scheduled activities to avoid overlaps and allow travel across the park.
Bring sun protection and water
Mauritius sun is strong—carry sunscreen, a hat and a refillable bottle; shade is limited in the savannah areas.
