2. Detailed Review of Tiger Park
First, I exchanged my e-voucher
for a physical ticket at the counter and entered.
When I visited, there was a bit of a wait.
Numbers were displayed on a screen to indicate the order.

While waiting, I checked out the other tigers around.
After about a 15-minute wait, it was my turn to enter.
The options are divided by tiger size.
I chose the Smallest option,
which includes tigers aged 3-6 months.

Before entering, we sanitized our hands
and then went in to touch the tigers.
Curious about safety?
A staff member guided us
from start to finish, always by our side.
It was more systematic than I expected,
making me feel very safe.

I spent 10 minutes with one tiger.
It didn't feel short at all; in fact, it felt quite long.
I expected it to be rough, but it was incredibly soft,
like petting a giant cat! haha
Thinking about when I'd ever get to touch a tiger again,
I kept petting it slowly. ♥

The zookeeper took some photos,
and I also took some with my own phone.
Professional photos can be purchased
separately on site!
The only downside was that my tiger
was asleep.

It only woke up when the experience was almost over,
and not wanting to disturb it,
I took photos from a distance.
Meanwhile, the tigers with other visitors
were quite active.
Honestly, I was a little jealous... 😭

Tigers are nocturnal,
so they sleep for long periods during the day.
If you want to see them active,
The golden hours are right after opening at 9 AM or
after 3 PM.
I wondered if the time would be too short, but
it didn't feel short at all.

On your way out, you'll find a souvenir corner.
They were selling keyrings, dolls, and clothes,
and I picked out a keyring.
Besides the interaction experience, there's also a general admission ticket for Tiger Park, so
just exploring is also a great option.
Additionally, there's a separate Forest Safari where you can tour for 15 minutes in an electric cart.
(Based on KKDAY, it's ~$15.)
3. Booking Platform Price Comparison & Discount Tips

I compared the prices of two platforms, KKDAY and Trip.com,
based on a single person.
(Prices vary depending on the tiger's size.)
Category | KKDAY | Trip.com |
Smallest Tiger (3-6 months) | ~$21 | ~$20 |
Small Tiger (7-12 months) | ~$17 | ~$17 |
Medium Tiger (1-2 years old) | ~$17 | ~$17 |
Big Tiger (2-5 years old) | ~$21 | ~$20 |

I'll even share a discount code for KKDAY.

KKDAY even cheaper.

KKAUTUMN6K | Save ~$4 | Minimum spend ~$75 |
3HOURS260812K | Save ~$9 | Minimum spend ~$149 |
The usage conditions vary for each tiger.
I'll explain based on KKDAY's guidelines.
Tiger | Conditions of Use |
Smallest Tiger | Children under 13 are allowed |
Small Tiger | Ages 16+, height 160cm (5'3")+ |
Medium and Up | Ages 18+, height 160cm (5'3")+ |
If you're with children, I recommend the Smallest Tiger.
4. Concluding Thoughts
It was an experience where I got to touch a tiger right beside me
and even take photos.
Staff guided me from start to finish,
ensuring a safe experience.
My tiger was sleeping, which was a bit disappointing, but if you aim for
right after opening or after 3 PM, you might get to see them more active!
If you're planning a family trip to Pattaya and wondering where to go,
I highly recommend Tiger Park.
