Tour to Tiger Kingdom

Unbelievable feel challenging at Tiger Kingdom

Tiger Kingdom is located in Mae Rim on the suburb of Chiangmai in Thailand. It a new collection, well marketed and rapidly becoming well known. Every hotel and hostel in Chiangmai will give you a deal to get there.

The tigers are not sedated like at other tiger location in Thailand and the facilities are extremely spotless. The Tiger Kingdom assigns specialized workers with each group of traveller to ensure everything goes smoothly and comfortably. When we here we presently know that the tigers were athletic and didn't look to be narcotic. We visited the smallest, small and biggest cats. When we went into see the baby cats a few of them were asleep and 1 was awake, we had a photographer in there and hope we had took them to come into every cage with us as we got some really good images, it's surely worth making.

I love great animals - especially tigers. I've never had a instance to be up close and personal with them...at Tiger Kingdom they make it possible. There is much quarrel if the tigers are drugged since they're so domesticated when in make friends with people. I don't know for sure, but wouldn't desire to be near a hungry tiger that is 180 kg with paws the size of my head. Out-of-the-way from that, the employees is super nice, they are informed about the tigers, and will help you get a pair shot too. I wasn't afraid playing with the smaller ones. My heart started beating fast when I was in the cages with the medium sized tigers, and yes I was assuredly alarmed when I was in the cages with the largest ones.

However, Tiger Kingdom markets itself on the ethical treatment of these animal, as display by countless notices and info panels all-around the place. The case they make is that tigers are usually nocturnal predators; they get specially tame in the hot Thai sunlight, slumbering as much as eighteen hours per day, and don’t molest except threatened or hungry.

A must for any person travelling in that area. To sit and pat a babe tiger was out of this world but to go into the meduim tiger dazzling. The restaurant serves excellent food while enjoying the food you are able to sit and look at the tigers.

You can find Large, Medium, Small and Smallest to choose from and these can be bought alone or as a package.

photographer: You can always take your own camera or employ their photographer for 299 baht which has a CD of 50-100 images when you depart.
