Advance booking is generally highly recommended to secure admission, especially for guided tours and educational programs, which may have limited capacity. Tickets are typically purchased online through the reserve’s designated booking partner or website. Full payment is usually required at the time of booking. It is advisable to check the opening hours before booking, as the reserve may operate seasonally or have specific closing days
Due to the educational and structured nature of the tours, the cancellation policy is often strict. For individual ticket cancellations, a 48-hour notice is usually required for a refund or credit. Group/School bookings will have a much stricter policy (e.g., 7 days notice). If the reserve closes due to unforeseen circumstances (e.g., extreme weather or official decree), visitors will be offered a free reschedule or a full refund.
The reserve's infrastructure, which includes walking trails and viewing areas, is likely designed with general accessibility in mind, offering smooth paths suitable for walking and strollers. However, visitors with mobility impairments are advised to contact the reserve directly before booking. As it is a large outdoor area, long walking distances should be anticipated. Accessible parking is generally provided.
Visitors are required to follow strict guidelines to protect the wildlife. Do not feed or disturb the animals unless specifically authorized as part of a supervised program. Stay on designated paths and do not enter animal enclosures. Wear comfortable shoes for walking the extensive trails. Photography is encouraged, but flash photography may be restricted near certain animal habitats. Respect the conservation mission of the reserve.
The cost of admission does not include personal accident or medical insurance. Visitors enter the reserve and participate in its activities at their own risk. The reserve maintains liability insurance covering its operations, but visitors are strongly encouraged to ensure their personal health or travel insurance provides adequate coverage for any unforeseen incidents or injuries while visiting a large outdoor facility with wildlife elements.
