The admission price is not based on whether you have a Thai driving licence. It is based on whether you are a Thai or a foreigner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The admission price is not based on whether you have a Thai driving licence. It is based on whether you are a Thai or a foreigner. Thai DL didn't work for me, but I'm a sucker, and prefer to enjoy a day out with no arguments over a few bucks here and there. In the scheme of things, the foreigner entry fee didn't seem prohibitive. If it had been obnoxious, I'd remember what it was. I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The admission price is not based on whether you have a Thai driving licence. It is based on whether you are a Thai or a foreigner. The 5-6 times I've been there I've always gotten the Thai price when showing my DL. However it's been over a year, maybe even two since the last visit, so they could have changed their policy since.

gmac Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) So how much it is Price for thais and farang? And thx for help I see on that web its 250 and 350 Thx Just looked at the official website which shows the admission fee as 450 Baht on the English language version. Interestingly, the ticket price page for the Thai version was "not found". http://www.tigerzoo.com/eng/ticket.php Edited December 21, 2013 by gmac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya28 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 From memory, the foreigner price of admission is maybe 4 times the price of admission for Thais. And I chose not to enter the zoo on principle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impkenai Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Was there last year with a friend, and I bought tickets at Thai prices at 140 baht each. I'm not Thai, but Asian. Just gave them a 500 baht note and ask for 2 tickets in Thai. Got 2 local tickets and correct change. No questions asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mataleo Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Went there yesterday. Nice day out. However, they display adult price 450b. I paid 180 with thai licence. So if no licence u pay 450b. Which im not sure is worth it. For 180 is cool. But u decide.... Better go there early sobu can get in to baby tigers feeding and big tiger pics. .. i miseed that...

K-buri is well worth the 2-1/2 hour trip from BKK, and if you're already there, so is the Tiger Temple- about 1/2 hour from K-buri. I wouldn't go that far from BKK just for the Tiger Temple if I'd just been to the Tiger Zoo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mike2011 Posted December 23, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2013 (edited) This business venture is disgusting. They trade in a species protected by the Washington Treaty (with the help of the authorities I presume who did not stop the export of Tigers).Moreover there is a nasty backside to the company where the useless Tigers are taken care off. Better stay away from this suspect company. There is a perfect alternative right around the corner: The open zoo a little further down the road. They breed white tigers and have a wonderful layout where you can walk around. Fresh air, right on the edge of the woods. Lots of other rare animals and not that kind disney land sales fever. Instead relaxing and not being pushed around by those hordes of tour buses. In other words, a respectable and better alternative just 5 kms further on.

mark131v Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I echo what Lenny said Khao Keow open zoo is a really good day out and far better than the Tiger Zoo and only a bit further up the road, If you have your Thai Licence driving licence it is all the same price plus in there you can do the flight of the gibbon thing as well....

wilcopops Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Re tiger temple. to LennyW - I beleive your post on the tiger Zoo is totally incorrect. As far as I'm aware, the zoo has NEVER legally moved or shipped a singles tiger. perhaps you'd like to say how and when this happened. As the tigers bred at the zoo have no DNA verification they cannot under any circumstances be allowed to breed with other animals. Any movement of the animals has to be recorded under both Thai regulations and CITES - can you tell me where or when any of this has happened and what conservation benefits you think they have achieved?

wilcopops Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) The post I'm referring to was in fact the Tiger Temple...NOT the Sri Racha Tiger Zoo. However I'd like to know about their dealings in shipping animals too. You might want to check out K.Plodrasop's current court case re shipping tigers from the zoo and explain the conservation benefits as you see them.
