Safari Park and Camp is an open zoo located in Bo Phloi District, Kanchanaburi Province. It is the first open zoo in the province and serves as a conservation and breeding center for various animal species. The zoo covers an area of approximately 500 rai (200 acres) and is divided into two sections: an open zoo and a performance area.


Opening Hours: Daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.



Admission Fee: Includes a bus ride around the zoo and various shows.

Visitors who prefer not to take the zoo's bus service may drive their own vehicles into the park. However, strict adherence to park regulations is mandatory. The zoo will not be held liable for any damages incurred within the park.

There are package options available, which include additional activities such as feeding tiger cubs, lion cubs, and leopards (choose one), playing with tigers in the tiger zone, and feeding various animals like monkeys, raccoons, and rabbits. You can also take photos with macaw parrots. The Big Cat Package costs 3,000 baht and includes the following activities: a bus tour of the zoo with a set of animal feed, feeding tiger cubs, lion cubs, and leopard cubs (all three), feeding and walking tigers, feeding various animals like monkeys, raccoons, and rabbits, and taking photos with macaw parrots. In addition, there are Extra Packages that you can purchase separately from the regular zoo entrance fee. The Giraffe Encounter costs 1,000 baht and involves an open-air vehicle ride to feed deer, zebras, and giraffes up close. You can also get off the vehicle.

  • Play with a tiger in the tiger zone at the Tiger Park. Price: 800 baht.
  • Walk with a tiger in the forest for 1000 baht.



Animal Food Dispensers: For those who wish to feed the animals, there are four baskets available for 100 baht each. It is recommended to purchase a large quantity, as there are a significant number of animals within the park. Before reaching the giraffe enclosure, you will encounter numerous deer with pleading eyes requesting food. It is difficult to resist their charm, and we were concerned that we would not have enough food remaining for the giraffes located in the final zone.

After watching the clip, let's take a look at what's worth seeing inside the zoo.

The zoo provides free shuttle buses for visitors to explore the project. Alternatively, visitors can drive their own cars. However, we recommend taking the shuttle bus for a more exciting experience. Let's find out why!

Upon entering the zoo's gates and driving into the first zone, visitors are greeted by a diverse array of fallow deer in various colors. These friendly creatures eagerly approach the vehicles, anticipating the treats that await them. The zoo offers a variety of food options, including carrots and bananas, which are sold at the entrance. The deer here have a voracious appetite, particularly the white one, which persistently follows cars until they disappear from sight. Visitors are encouraged to purchase food and interact with these gentle animals, as they are a delight to encounter.

Each zone is separated by a gate to keep different animal species apart.
Next is the zone for the banteng, where most of the banteng are sleeping on rocks and in simulated caves. They rarely come down to the bottom. It is strictly forbidden to get out of the car in this zone, so we used a zoom lens to get a closer look. Each banteng is large and very well-fed.


Greet each other by sticking out your tongues.


The next zone is home to dozens of tigers, which can be seen up close from the car. We appreciate the park's commitment to providing its animals with spacious enclosures that mimic their natural habitats. Park rangers are stationed in this zone to ensure visitor safety.

The next zone is the African lion enclosure, where we spotted nearly 20 lions. Each lion appeared content, playfully interacting with one another. They seemed remarkably tame, as they showed no signs of aggression towards the staff vehicles parked nearby with open windows.








The next zone is the leopard zone. Each one was playing on the branches, trees, and rocks. Some were chasing each other, which was very cute. Some were sleeping, and they looked just like our cat at home. ^^





This creature sleeps very comfortably.

The next zone is another deer zone. This zone features white deer, fallow deer, and emus, which are very tame and can be fed and petted.







Giraffe Zone: A Feast for the Eyes and Stomachs

The highlight of the open zoo is undoubtedly the giraffe zone. As soon as the gates open, the giraffes eagerly approach the bus, their heads poking through the windows in search of food. Be warned, if you're not careful, they might just steal your entire basket! We learned this the hard way, as they managed to snatch our food even though it was placed under the bus seat.

It's advisable to purchase plenty of food, as you'll likely encounter hungry gazelles and zebras before reaching the giraffes. The adorable gazelles, with their pleading eyes, are particularly adept at persuading visitors to part with their snacks.

This zone is not only home to giraffes, but also zebras, ostriches, and flamingos.


Zebras also enjoy eating, so remember to bring food to feed them.




Flamingos mingle in the same zone.



For those who want to get up close and personal with giraffes and zebras, you can walk down and take selfies with them. The zoo offers an additional package, for an extra fee, called "Giraffe Encounter." This involves an open-air vehicle, similar to a zebra-striped songthaew, that will take you into the enclosure.


To avoid being robbed by a horde of giraffes, it's crucial to keep your food well-hidden.









The sentence is already in English and does not require translation.






After exiting the open zoo zone, the bus will take us to the show zone. This zone requires walking. After watching the animals in this zone, you can walk to the front to get on the bus. There will be buses circulating to pick up tourists all the time.

Upon entering, visitors encounter the first zone, home to monkeys, gibbons, raccoons, sun bears, goats, and rabbits. While all animals reside in enclosures, visitors have the opportunity to feed them. Food is available for purchase at designated food stalls. Alternatively, visitors who have opted for package deals receive complimentary food, which can be obtained from park staff upon request.

This shy little gibbon girl likes men.

This is a raccoon habitat with two individuals, a male and a female, named Jack and Rose.


Next is the Big Cat Zone, where tigers, leopards, and lions are kept in cages. Visitors can feed the animals or, for an additional fee, enter the cages to play with the leopards or walk and take photos with the tigers or lions. The animals here are very tame, and staff and handlers will be present to ensure your safety during the interaction. As someone who loves tigers and lions, I wasn't afraid and dared to walk them.


Exiting the tiger zone, you'll enter the crocodile show zone, which resembles zoos elsewhere. Shows are held at specific times, so be sure to check the schedule. During the crocodile show, you can participate and take photos, but I personally opted out, as I'm not particularly comfortable with crocodiles.





The next zone is the elephant show, where the highlight is riding the elephants. It was a bit sad to see the elephants sitting there, as they must have been quite heavy. After taking a photo, we gave the elephant a banana as a reward. For those who purchased the additional package, there was also the opportunity to bathe and ride the elephants.

Following the animal exhibition zone, the bus will drop us off at the front entrance. This area houses tiger cubs, lion cubs, and leopard cubs. Tourists can interact with these animals by feeding them, providing them with food, and taking pictures. However, there is an additional fee for this activity. Alternatively, if you purchase a package, the interaction cost is included. Nearby, there is also a designated area for taking pictures with macaw parrots.











This concludes our zoo review. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We were amazed by the variety of animals and felt closer to them than at other zoos we've been to. The 200 baht entrance fee is reasonable in our opinion, especially considering the opportunity to ride the bus and take selfies with the giraffes. Witnessing the sheer amount of food the animals consume daily made us realize that our entrance fee contributes to the upkeep of the facilities, animals, and staff. The staff here clearly care deeply for the animals, who appear healthy and well-nourished. The dedication of the staff in the tiger, monkey, and goat feeding zones was particularly evident. We highly recommend visiting this zoo, located conveniently in Kanchanaburi. You're sure to fall in love with the animals here, just like we did.
