I had heard about an opportunity like this in Thailand before I left but was told the tigers are drugged to be docile. I did not want to endorse a place like this so I was unsure of Tiger Kingdom. When I was assured from our Gap Tour guide that the tigers were not drugged I was super excited and... More

I went there on the 7th of January this year, I got there at the crack of dawn well before the place had opened for visitors. This gives you the oportunity to see the Tigers after they have been fed and are in a playful mood. They were jumping around and play fighting and seeing the keeper walk in on... More

Had a lot of fun with the large tigers, staff are mad and kept on poking us from behind and scaring us. However I reckon the Tigers are drugged which is pretty sad. More

We've been there recently and honestly couldn't wait to see the tigers. I have to admit, we paid the entrence fee to all of them, from baby to large. And of course, the pictures you bring back home are one of a kind. Who does not dream of being so close to such wonderful creatures? On the other hand we... More

I'm a little unsure how to rate this attraction because if I'd read up more before I went, I probably would have had a better experience. Firstly, we really enjoyed our encounter with the smallest cubs and I was in awe that my teenage children and I were actually there patting and posing for photos with them. Here's where we... More

We were taken to the Tiger Kingdom on the recommendation of the driver who picked us up at the airport. He had a DVD of people with the tigers. The tigers at the Tiger Kingdom were incredible but the pictures they showed us were not the type of pictures we were allowed to take. The trainers were great with the... More

We had been to Tiger Kingdom on 05 May'2012. We spent around 3 hours there. We paid for a package (1500 Bhat per person) which allowed entry to four enclosures ( Smallest / Small / Medium / Big). The place is very well maintained and the animals looked well cared for and healthy. The animals are not chained and we... More

If your only goal is to get a picture of you with a tiger, I guess this is your place. But if you care about the tiger, stay away. There is nothing natural about an adult tiger allowing a human -- especially someone it doesn't know -- to come up and pet it. I'm convinced these animals are drugged, though... More

I have been to the tiger temple out of Bangkok which I just loved but the Tiger Kingdom was fantastic. I spent about 20 minutes with 4 tigers around 2 years old, then about another 15 minutes as one of them was asleep across the gate to get get and he didn't particularly want to move. It was great to... More
