There are shows twice a day between Monday and Friday, and three times a day over the weekend and on public holidays. These shows take place in our spectacular Tuscan amphitheatre. Montecasino Bird Gardens offer entertaining and educational shows with colourful and talented show birds.

There are smaller antelope wandering freely in the undergrowth. In our walk-through Aviary, you will find over 60 species of birds including Scarlet Ibises, and Nicobar pigeons, reptiles and small mammals. There are also mammals, reptiles and unusual animals from around the world. You can wander along enchanted walkways within magnificent gardens, and see a variety of colourful birds. If hunger pangs strike, ‘Cafe Flamingo’ serves excellent coffee.Montecasino Bird Gardens is the ideal place to go for great family entertainment. If you are someone who loves bird watching, this park is just the right place for you to spend a few good hours. You can catch them at 11 AM and 3 PM on weekdays and at 1 PM and 3 PM on weekends. Monte Casino Bird Park has regular bird shows (called the ‘Flight of Fantasy’) that are around 40 min long and packed with entertainment.

A noteworthy feature is how this place has worked hard to educate children about our wondrous environment and the urgent need to conserve it. Some 500 plants can also be found in the Bird Park with Encephalartos middelburgensis, one of the oldest living plants in the world, taking the cake. These creatures live inside structures that emulate their natural habitat. The most popular names inside the aviary, which is the largest of its kind in the African continent, include Nicobar pigeons, royal starlings and scarlet ibises along with sloths, lemurs, antelopes and rather scary reptiles like black mambas.
