About
Located in the middle of Lagos, this conservation center is home to abundant plants and wildlife and plays a vital role in preserving the region’s ecosystem. Sign up for a guided tour with transportation included, or you can just as easily hail a rideshare and make your own way there. Take a stroll through the swamp boardwalk and spot rare birds, monkeys, snakes, and crocodiles. The park is also home to the longest canopy walkway in Africa, offering 360-degree views from above the treetops. If you’re afraid of heights, fret not—crossing this suspended walkway is optional. – Tripadvisor

I was surprised how relatively affordable this place is for the amount of fun you will have. I liked everything about the canopy walk and getting so close to the monkeys was actually very cool. I would definitely recommend this place and will come more often to just relax and park.

Amazing mangroves, climbing the tree house is great, make sure you pay for the canopy walk at the entrance, otherwise you will miss out.

This is a must DO if you are in Lagos. Surrounded by the mega City of Lagos you will find this little place of nature and peace. The canyon skywalk lifted you up to the top of the trees and jungle of Lekki Park. You could see all the different kind of nature. Plants, flowers, trees and animals… I really liked it

WOW! We went with a group 4 adults. It didn't take us long to buy our tickets at N3K per person. Though, ticket office needs to be refurnished. We went in a group and the tour guide was excellent.
The nature walk exhibit an exciting and unforgettable wild life experience. The canopy walkways was an amazing view to see crocodiles, monkeys, birds, beach and proximity area of Lagos. If anyone is afraid of heights don't attempt it canopy walkways, it's frightening looking down. Few foreigners
Overall, it worth the outing and value for money.

The center was incredible! Very crowded but worth it! It took a while to find parking, like everywhere in Lagos. But the views were gorgeous and the monkeys were very cute and social. I don’t recommend for young children or people scared of heights because it is VERY high up and shaky! But that’s what makes it fun!

Was rather enjoyable going with family
May be preferable to eat prior so you wouldn’t need to buy food or carry any food. Very picturesque and beautiful. Make sure to bring insect repellent

I loved this experience so much. At first to be honest I was scared of monkies being on the loose. Im so glad I went though, did the canopy walk, had fresh coconut... had a beautiful time there.

I first saw this trip on Viator for £130pp and thought wow that seems expensive so I did my research and ended up calling an UBER (20 minute drive from my hotel) and paying entry on the door.
UBER was £4 entry was £12 for 2 which included everything and UBER back £4 so all in £20.
At that it is worth it DO NOT pay the Viator prices you will be extremely disappointed.
Nice walk through the swamp seeing monkeys, birds and caught sight of a skulking crocodile.
Canopy bridge was fun, but scary as it swings a little but takes you above the forest canopy I enjoyed this.
Further on you see fish ponds one with tilapia of various colours, the guide threw some pellet food and they all went wild could be mistaken for piranha.
Next pond was koi some pretty fish.
The games areas were not open yet and the BBQ area not started yet.
Back to the main building and we went looking for the tortoise, we found the old guy busy munching on his grass and he didn’t mind us having a selfie with him.
All in it was enjoyable for the money but again do not over pay

yes, they do open on Sunday but as it’s the holiday season I’d call them before you go just to contact them to be sure.

About 3k and 2k without the canopy
I would like to visit in December. Would i be allowed to bring in my stuff (like food and drinks) and also is there a charge for parking or its free
And please how much is the entry fee

I'm not sure there's restriction on taking your food and drinks along, the parking is free, entry fee is 1000naira and doing the canopy walk was 2000naira per person. If the weather is cloudy or it rains, people aren't allowed to do the canopy walk.
I hope I was able to answer your questions.
