Words from people’s experience/opinion on their great photo ops are entirely meaningless. Watch the videos I took today for yourself and decide if it’s a place that you want to support. I paid 700 baht to make it there from my hotel and was able to go observe by the bathroom for free before buying a ticket. After watching for about 25 minutes, I decided that I couldn’t stomach supporting this place even though I was EXTREMELY excited and it was one of the main reasons I even flew from Bangkok. I watched the employees jab their fingers in the tiger’s mouth, poke them relentlessly with bamboo sticks, stick pieces of coconut in their mouth to wake them up, spray water on their faces, use a coconut to POUR water on their faces, give light punches to the tigers face and more - all while smiling. Now, after seeing the videos, perhaps it’s true, that they’re not drugged, but I can’t imagine any animal being happy with having all these things done to them in the course of an afternoon. I was just there for 20 minutes! I would suggest to go support the elephant sanctuary instead of this place. I’ve never been a big fan of protesting nor am I anti zoo or anything like that, but I wish there was an animal rights group that could do something. At least hopefully those who attend can show these videos to the management and have better training put in place. Animal cruelty is a strong word that, sadly, should be used when describing this establishment.

I was skeptical before my arrival. But these majestic beasts are in really good shape. Neither high nor dazed under the influence of drugs. Beautiful shiny coat. Some nick and scrapes are expected as these animals are not kept isolated from each other. We see nothing to indicate physical abuse. Keepers will use a cat wand to coax the tigers to look in a particular direction. It will be foolhardy for anyone to be disrespectful while believing that a foot long chopstick thing will stop a tiger in its tracks if and when it decides to give you a piece of its mind. I actually had an amazing time with 3 overgrown playful house cats, in the same pen, all at the same time. This isn't the Serengeti. These tigers aren't going to start running the marathon here, but these tigers aren't confined in tiny cages 24/7. They have playtime in spacious playpens to bask in the sun in, as well as their own private pools. Though will still love to see more comfortable sleeping conditions over bare hard concrete.

During my recent trip to Phuket, I had the opportunity to visit Tiger Kingdom, a unique attraction that offers close-up encounters with various types of tigers. Upon entering, I was impressed by the variety of tigers present. From playful cubs to imposing adults, each tiger had its own distinctive presence. The facility allows visitors to select which tigers they want to interact with, which I found to be a thoughtful aspect of the experience. This is based on the ticket we purchase. One of the highlights of my visit was the chance to take a photo with a tiger. It was a surreal experience to be so close to such a powerful animal. The staff were meticulous about safety, ensuring that both the tigers and visitors were comfortable. While I enjoyed the experience, I couldn’t help but have mixed feelings. On the one hand, the proximity to these magnificent animals was extraordinary. On the other, I wondered about the ethical implications of such interactions and the overall well-being of the tigers in this setting.

Always wanted to touch a tiger and pet a cheetah. Heard this place doesn't drug the animals from the locals which gave me the opportunity to do something as amazing as this. The adrenaline rush from being next to the king of the jungle is incredible and heart warming at the same time. The Cheetah was my favorite and he was really friendly. I wouldn't recommend getting a photo, cheaper and easier to get a photo of your own phone as they allow you to take photos inside the pen. There also is go Karting next door so you can do two attractions back to back.

One exhilarating experience but that’s it. It’s only about photos and selfies. Hopefully they’ll expand it more in the future like there will be a mini tour explaining everything about the tigers and cheetahs history and stuff. Would have been much enjoyable as well when they’ve had some activities other than feeding the tigers. Good job tho. Hopefully they’ll open up restaurants as well.

This is a review that will address the comments we read before looking at the tigers. We looked at the tigers, small tigers and cheetahs. The claims of drugging the animals. My wife and I are massive animal lovers and have animals ourselves. My wife is also a medical professional. We seen no evidence that the tigers were drugged however the tigers did look like they had had enough of seeing people all day without proper breaks. Animal living conditions were good for an Asian country but I would like to have seen proper bedding for the tigers rather than expecting them to sleep in small pens on the ground and wait for their turns to run around in a medium pen. One of the tigers had a swollen elbow from sleeping on the concrete. Surprisingly this company makes a lot of money yet can’t seem to provide proper toys/ bedding facilities for the tigers. The majority of other tigers were stuck in small pens for hours on end and were bored wanting attention. Bigger bedding pens and pens where the tigers can run around would be appreciated. Handlers, ok because I’m not a handler and have never handled a tiger before this is an uneducated opinion. I was not happy with the handlers grunting at the tigers all the time and lightly hitting them on the face. These are 200kg animals though so I can understand they need control maintained but I believe there must be a better way then forcing them to sit through money making photos for 12 hours and yelling at the animal when it wants to get up in my opinion that is cruel. The smallest tiger had nobody in the pen taking photos and got up to walk around and as soon as it got up the handler walked over to it grunting at the tiger and forcing it to sit back down again. The reaction of the smaller tiger lead me to believe the baby tiger has had some type of breaking in or physical abuse. either way the tigers should be able to get up when they please. Overall I did enjoy the experience however I think the conditions of the tigers could be improved. 3 and a half stars… only because I want the pens improved and the bigger pens expanded for the tigers and better tiger handling. The company is ok though so I would not turn people away from going there. Hope this helps.

Great place. The tigers are not drugged just tame and sleepy. They feed them in morning and afternoon is sleepy time. I had 15 minutes with a giant cat the first one fell right asleep. They then brought in his old bigger brother for me. Absolutely beautiful. Well worth the money

We went there because the driver recommended us. It is debatable about torturing these tigers for our entertainment because the money that we use will be spent on these tigers' health and diet. It is also believed that tigers live longer when they are treated with care in captivity. However, I think they should at least limit the number of people who can take pictures with the tigers a day as even for us, it is tiring to work all day. It would be the same for them as well. You can choose the size of the tiger you wanna take pictures with. E.g. small, medium and large. I recommend taking pictures with large ones as they just lie down and do nothing. Although it was a thrilling experience, it was fun. For the small tigers, they are playful and get angry easily. That's what I saw there. One time shoot 20 mins to 30 mins and it cost 1,000 Baht per person. However, when you take pictures, it only takes 5 to 10 minutes. The keepers will let you take pictures with two to three tigers. And they take videos and photos for you if you want couple photos. The staff are OK and they can speak basic English.

Staff inside were excellent! Super cooperative. But what's with that lady outside "thai food". She was too arrogant and rude with us. We asked her about the food and she just turned her face to opposite side. We tried asking again and she started shouting that she has other customers (which they were leaving). This ruined the entire mood. Lady, please behave properly and understand how to interact with customers! I have seen this attitude with some people here in Thailand towards Indians. They behave good with their local and people from Europe but as soon as they see Indians they start behaving rude. I think its time we Indians revisit our decisions.

Overall good experience. The staff were nice especially the instructors in the cage. They were more of pro videographer than instructors. You don’t need to take DSLR camera option. They are enough. The waiting time for smallest tiger was around 2hrs.

Definitely a must visit if you are a fan of wildlife. You get to explore from close. Thing to note is that the tigers are not sedated or there is no dearming like removal of teeth or claws. They are born and raised with humans and hence they are friendly. With that being said, you need to follow the protocols to ensure your safety. Touch them with firm hands, approach them from behind, wash your hands before and after spending time with them when going to see other animals and so on. The staff there is very friendly and would help you out with all the instructions. One thing very prominent is that the place is kept absolutely clean. Being a pet parent I understand the struggles of it and spending more than 2 hrs there with absolutely no smell was something commendable. Kudos to the team 🥳 Lastly since it is a tourist destination, the cafe there is very well equipped with diverse menu. Being an Indian I got authentic Indian veg food there and it was absolutely great in taste. The Thai tea there is a must try!!! Enjoy your visit

If you want to touch the tiger like a dog, come to the Tiger Kingdom Phuket, a zoo and a restaurant featuring close interaction with tigers in caged enclosures. The primary residents here are Sumatra tigers and Cheetahs. Visitors can choose the type or animal sizes to interact with, such as small, medium, large and giant. Feel nervous and also excited and in love to be able to get closer with the king of the jungle. There have been rumors that those tigers are drugged. I feel that is wrong information and misconception about it. The Tigers are very active and well-fed. It has been trained to interact with humans since it was a cub. All the tigers are beautiful and handsome, and look so fit. The Tigers are also able to move around and play inside the cage. Overall, it was a great experience and a must-do activity if you come to Phuket, Thailand. Thank you so much for the team inside the cage, thanks for your professional work.

Tiger Kingdom Phuket is a once in a lifetime experience where you can meet, play, and have your photo taken with tigers! The staff is very cooperative They allow clicking photos in own camera also We hired professional photographer and you can see the result in picture Not only the photographer's but tigers are also trained to click photo We had a wonderful time at tiger kingdom They have baby tiger also - but charges for this is different

This tiger sanctuary was great. It was a nice surprise that when I had paid for a "large" tiger package, it wasn't actually just one large tiger, but an enclosure with three large tigers and I got to pose and take pictures with all three. The staff were very diligent in safety and there is nothing to fear. I paid extra for a photographer but the staff also took my phone and took additional photos as well. This was great and I recommend it to anyone who wants some sweet pictures with tigers they can show off to folks back home.

Good experience touching the tiger and being with it for a while. We can take pictures and make videos with it. Even the experts can help us taking the videos and pictures. Try to give them your phones to get better angled pictures. Always smile and laugh no matter how much you scare. However it’s costed me some bucks but worth it.

The kids are having great time there… we choose to picture with smallest tigers which cost 1000 baht per person. As we have 7 people as a group to go inside, there’s around 10 mins touching and take picture with the two tigers. The tigers are quite energetic and clean, not even have any smell. The waiting time is over an hour, actually it’s quite long🤦🏻‍♀️

They have a good control of the animals there. A safe place to get to touch the tiger.. do not go there if you expect the tigers to hug you and give you a kiss.. 😄 Prices on the higher side i think - but it Depends on how desperate you are for the picture and the touch.. 😉

Tiger Kingdom, one of the best thing to see in Phuket. Well trained tigers, staff is superb cooperative, you can click from your own camera as well as ask them to click from professional photographer, they charge for the same but it is worthy if you visited Tiger Kingdom. You can also feed tiger with milk bottle, as they have such facility too. Had a great time, I still remember those moments, they have a very cool & supportive staff and all I can say is must visit place for everyone.

Although I generally oppose keeping animals in captivity, I must admit that I found the tiger kingdom quite fascinating. It offers a remarkable display of tigers of various ages and species. The ticketing and queuing systems are efficiently organized, and the park itself is spacious and impeccably maintained. By obtaining a visitors pass, you can observe all the tigers from outside their enclosures. For those interested, there are additional options available, such as the opportunity to interact with and feed the tigers, although these activities require an extra fee. Additionally, if desired, you can hire a photographer to capture your memorable moments during the encounters. Alternatively, the park staff will happily take two or three pictures of you upon request. Outside the main park, there are canteens offering a wide range of food options. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this tiger park and highly recommend it.

I had a lot of fun. I wanted to see the cub but it was a 3 hour wait. So I chose the giant tiger since it was only a 30min wait. It was lovely. The keepers do a lot of tapping so the tiger can look at the camera. It was a wonderful experience.

One of the most popular activities in Phuket & a dream for many. The prices were a little too high but for a one time experience it's alright. An important thing to be noted is if you plan to visit with a child only the medium or the small size tiger is available. Overall a one time checklist item. Do note the guards do take photos for 100baht so no need to hire a photographer & pay extra.

It is a wonderful place, where they offer services to visit, touch and photograph tigers of different ages. Each cage has tigers of different ages and may have a different value, but it is worth at least one cage to visit. The tiger caretakers are very attentive and kind... Super recommended!!!

(Translated by Google) Recommend to play with the younger All staff are well advised and knowledgeable.Now the entrance fee is 200 ฿, you can choose to play with your younger ones (15 minutes), if you play 2 things, it's 300 ฿ each 15 minutes. There are baby tigers, teenagers, big cheetahs, recommended. The tiger is the biggest, because the younger tiger is the most still, easy to catch, and won't wake up, but if the young tiger will not play much. Because she always plays, likes to jump, likes to gnaw, must be careful and believe the staff strictly Because you don't know your strength If going to catch a lot, he will think that we play too 😂😂 When we touch it, we must touch it hard. If caught lightly, the officer said that he would think that a bug or something was on it, he would turn to look and brush. This place does not chase, there are no tigers, there are some fierce tigers, especially young tigers that are still mischievous. As for the big tiger, just talk and listen.

TIGER IN YOUR HANDS… !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was our first destination of our Phuket tour and it was bit hesitated at first time after interacting with these tigers it was amazing and unique experience. We were like walk in guest, opted for middle size tiger, It we great experience to see tiger very closely; we got around 10-15 minutes to take many photos with tiger. While entering to tiger area you have to sign an indemnity/ insurance form. There are photographer can come with you for additional Bhat 300. The trainers are very friendly and experienced. There are three types of tigers. Small, medium and big. We paid 900 baht for the middle size tiger .This place is charging the cost according to the size of the tiger and I do not think it is less expansive but worth it. They have small restaurant and cool bar for some drinks. We rent taxi for the back and forth transport, that cost around 400 Baht. I felt some of the tigers are drugged but they active in somewhat... Over whole this place was running great and our experience was really unique and great. I would recommend for the family with kids and couples for a must see destination.

The place is good and lots of people comes to visit this place as it's must visit tourist spot. We visited the place and take pics with the big tiger but while taking the pics the way the staff treat the tigers and even after spending 10mins in cage with tiger we sit to see other people going in cage and taking pics and the way staff treat them to make them pose for pics. It's not right t confine them in cages for human beings entertainment.

Tiger Kingdom stands as a unique and unparalleled destination where one can intimately connect with majestic tigers, ranging from the grandeur of the adult specimens to the endearing charm of the little cubs. This extraordinary facility promises an unparalleled experience that is bound to become a highlight of one's lifetime. The dedicated staff, characterized by their warmth and professionalism, not only ensures the safety of visitors but also actively contributes to enhancing the overall encounter. Their amiable assistance extends beyond ensuring your safety, transcending into crafting optimal opportunities for capturing breathtaking photographs and curating memorable experiences throughout your visit. Unleash the adventurer within, and allow Tiger Kingdom to be the backdrop for the best moments of your life.

Amazing experience with the tigers. They are very well trained. For good pictures allow care takers to click the photos through your phone. They will charge 200 baht

It is such a very fantastic experience with tigers, First time you may be scary with them but after few minutes it is like a dream, you can take their feet in your hand, spread your hands on their body. Overall it is very great experience, if you visit Phuket you should try this once.

(Translated by Google) Take pictures with tigers and see different tigers. There is a team to take care of the safety and give advice on how to catch a tiger. The photography service is not expensive, 2-300 baht, send pictures by email. The age of the download is 30 days or so, I can't remember.

At the Tiger Kingdom in Phuket, visitors can experience the joy and excitement of wildlife and nature. Spread over an area of four acres, Tiger Kingdom is located at the base of Patong Hill in Kathu District on Phuket Island. Visitors get an opportunity to go up close with Indochinese tigers, ranging from cubs to adults. Tiger Kingdom in Thailand provides a comfortable and caring environment for tigers of all ages and sizes. The attraction is one of the main highlights of Phuket Island which is also famous for beaches, rainforests, nightlife, and seaside resorts. Each animal encounter at the Tiger Kingdom in Kathu Phuket allows visitors to spend around 10 minutes inside the enclosure with a chosen Big Cat. For the safety of visitors, all individuals are escorted by trained tiger keepers at all times. There is also a fixed time to feed the tigers. Make sure to visit the place during these feeding hours for a unique experience. Visitors must follow strict procedures inside Tiger Kingdom like before entering a tiger enclosure, all personal belongings should be kept outside in a locker, and also shoes must be removed. Tourists should turn the flash off while taking pictures or video. Visitors can also take around 50 professional pictures clicked by a photographer at an additional cost of 500 THB. Bengal Restaurant in Tiger Kingdom offers an à la carte menu including a range of Thai and Western food. There is also a gift shop where visitors can purchase a perfect memento of their animal encounters. Overall, Tiger Kingdom in Thailand can be an adventurous experience as well as an educational one. It is one of the most popular attractions in Phuket for families and couples visiting Thailand.

The Phuket Tiger Kingdom might not be to everyone’s taste, but we, however, took an hour to stop over and see for ourselves if animals were at least well treated. This new Tiger Kingdom is located just next to the well-known and long-established Go-Kart race track, just before climbing the hill leading to Patong Beach. The place is surprisingly large, clean and very well organised and as soon as you enter, you’ll see the several options offered to the visitors. There are four sizes of tigers: smallest, small, medium and big and the price is according to the popularity. Obviously, the cute cubs and the massive adults are the most popular, but you can choose all kinds of combinations according to your budget, be aware that it doesn’t come cheap. Prices at the time we visited The Tiger Kingdom are as follow smallest: 1,000 baht, small: 900 baht, medium 800 baht, big 800 baht. Then you can get a combination of two tigers (big or medium + small) 1,400 baht, three tigers (big or medium + small + smallest) 2,300 and the Full Monty (big + medium + small + smallest): 2,800 baht. Since everyone who enters the enclosure has to pay the full price, whether you want to take your photo with the feline or not, the total bill can be quite steep. We went in and asked lots of questions The animals are in excellent condition, nicely groomed with a beautiful fur, no bad smell and enclosure are kept spotless. Many of the tigers are lazing around, leading inevitably to the general statement ‘tigers are drugged’, which no one can, of course, prove nor demonstrate. The guide’s answer was they are not; this is the daytime behaviour of well-fed tigers born in captivity. He said we should come back at 5 pm when tigers get hungry and see how restless they become. Tigers responded well to the attention given to them.The guide gave us a lot of interesting information, so don’t hesitate to ask anything as they do speak English. Note that for your safety there are rules to respect: wash your hands before walking in (tigers are cleaner than you are :D) Don’t bring your bag inside as tigers love to play with the straps. Don’t use flash, don’t walk alone in the parks and don’t make a loud noise. Once we saw the size of the beasts, we certainly didn’t feel like doing anything that could upset them. The young tigers might be considered ‘small’, but just one of their paws is as big as your face!We went around several rooms and gardens and took our photos, and whether we agree with the idea of tigers being kept in captivity, it is hard not to have a broad smile when holding a baby tiger or lying down next to a full-grown feline. So we did our inspection and are reassured that animals were extremely well treated. Now it is entirely up to you to decide if you want to see the tigers or not. If you dare to see big cats 🙀... But feel bad to see them like this they belong to wild... 🙏 #safari...

Closer to Patong then the other. Currently no younger Tigers but the Leppard is very playful. Animals appear to be well kept, clean and cared for. The facilities need a bit of maintenance and better cleaning, there is a bit of odor that should be taken care of. I'll go back.

This is a wonderful and once in a lifetime experience to get very close to a tiger/cheetah and take pictures. The facility is clean and well maintained. Small children cannot visit the tiger enclosure and can only take pictures with the cheetah. The tickets can cost a family of four around 3-4k Bhat depending on whether you hire a photographer. Depending on the crowd, the waiting time could be around 30 minutes to 1 hour so be prepared for that. I recommend you to give it a try. It might be a frightening experience but you will gets tons of close ups with the animals for your social media.

These Tigers are born in captivity and are trained and well fed to eat chicken and have minimal interest to eat a human…we felt safe with the big cats. They were lazy and fine to touch. Just make sure you obey the instructions of the staff! Enjoy!

Let me preface this with having done alot of research and if there is one place in Phuket that is not drugging the tigers, this is the place. Now, for all I know, they still could be drugging them but my experience didn't reflect this. The tigers were extremely active, I played with them with a half a coconut tied to a string connected to a stick and they were going absolutely nuts to the point that I was a little concerned. They were running around, jumping into the pool and playing with each other. Got some great photos with them, they were friendly and we had great interactions. Everyone wants to play with the Cubs and while they are cute, see the bigger guys. The wait is way less, you'll get way more one on one time and you'll walk away with some spectacular photos.

(Translated by Google) During this time there is a promotion. You can check it from the Tiger Kingdom Phuket page to view tigers, there are many sizes to choose from, from smallest to large, and cheetahs are very impressed because in addition to taking pictures with the tiger. The brothers also gave a lot of knowledge about tigers. High security I certify that I am impressed and definitely want to come back again. (Original) ช่วงนี้มีโปรโมชั่นอยู่ค่ะ เช็คได้จากหน้าเพจ Tiger Kingdom Phuket เข้าชมเสือมีหลายขนาดให้เลือกตั้งแต่เล็กสุดไปถึงใหญ่และเสือชีต้าร์ ประทับใจมากๆ เพราะนอกจากจะได้ถ่ายรูปกับน้องเสือแล้ว พี่ๆยังให้ความรู้เกี่ยวกับเสือเยอะมากๆค่ะ มีความปลอดภัยสูง รับรองว่าประทับใจและอยากกลับมาอีกแน่นอนค่ะ

It was an intense experience. My heart did not stop racing until 30 minutes after I left. These are magnificent animals that I both fear and respect. The handler was Kevin and he was both kind and firm with the animals. I could tell there was mutual love there when he would smile while petting them. The y would lick him and purr. It was really sweet. He was very reassuring despite my complete reluctance and fear. I did end up petting them. No tiger cubs as of now because of covid. I also got a kinda private tour because there was no one there but the employees. Great experience and very professional

You can choose which tiget to see, then they will take to the area where they are 2-3 tigers. You can take photos yourself or hire a loyal photographer at the casier. All the other tigers you will just behind the henge.

Very professional. No question about this stupid face mask. Price was really good too. I recommend to visit this place!

Must fun activities to do in Phuket. All staffs are super cordial and helpful. Nicely organized the kingdom. Touched the tigers and clicked the beautiful pictures with 3 lovely tigers. There are lots of options for tiger lovers. Happy to visit there 🐯🐅😊

This is really amazing place for stay with Tigers, All staff are kindness and well take care, They are so lovely because I am solo trip and I don't need to worry about take a photos due to staff will be take a camera for you and then you can download all photos from link. This time ,I have been play with 5 tigers, first cage 2 tigers, second cage 3 tigers and later I play with leopard 🐆. I don't scared all tigers because they are so lovely.

One of the highlights for me was choosing the giant tiger trainer option, and it turned out to be an awesome decision. The trainers were incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout the entire interaction. It was a unique and exciting experience to witness these majestic creatures up close and personal. The trainers were there every step of the way, ensuring our safety and guiding us through the process of interacting with the tigers. One aspect that stood out to me was how the trainers went the extra mile to help us capture memorable moments. They assisted in taking photos, ensuring we had lasting memories of this incredible encounter. Their knowledge and expertise in handling the tigers were evident, creating a safe and enjoyable environment for both visitors and the animals

Really amazing experience. Initially I was skeptical that the tigers might be drugged, but visiting the tiger kingdom has changed my perspective. These tigers are tamed from very young age and are used to human contact. Not all tigers will be sleeping, some are really active. Would definitely recommend this place.

The place have lots of visitors and generally have a wait time of around 40 - 75 mins. There are different packages for the visit according to the type of tiger you want to see starting from 1400 baht per person for giant Tiger 1000 baht for big tiger. Kids less than 15 years are only allowed with baby tiger and new born charges are 1000 baht for the kids too and kids should be accompanied by an adult. If you book a camera man the charges are 550 baht. You only get to spend 8-10 mins inside the cage.

Absolutely worse experience ever. All the animals looked asleep or sedated. Not worth the visit. Plus no refund i would Not recommend a visit. Better of giving the money to charity. As you can see the from the picture attached the tiger isn't even awake. Waste of money

Thrilling Tiger Encounter at Tiger Kingdom - Phuket! Our visit to Tiger Kingdom in Phuket turned out to be an unforgettable experience filled with awe and excitement! At first, I was admittedly skeptical about the welfare of the tigers, fearing they might be sedated. However, to my relief, the tigers at Tiger Kingdom were not under the influence of any drugs. Walking alongside these magnificent creatures was both terrifying and exhilarating, creating a unique and thrilling memory. We opted for the experience with the Giant tiger, and the caregiver assigned to us went above and beyond to ensure our safety and enjoyment. They even took some incredible photos of us with the majestic creature. The professionalism and friendliness of the staff added to the overall positive experience. The highlight for my family was when my wife and child had the opportunity to interact with the smallest tiger. The joy on my baby's face as they played with the tiger was priceless. It was evident that the caregivers prioritize the well-being and comfort of both visitors and the animals. I highly recommend Tiger Kingdom for families seeking a unique and safe wildlife encounter. The memories created here will undoubtedly be cherished for a lifetime.

Loved the experience of being in the cage with large tigers. Adrenaline rush right here if you’re into it. Would highly recommend

I have always wanted to experience this. It was great. The small one was very energetic. Before I went I was concerned about what I heard. But when I arrived, all tigers seemed fine and super healthy. Minus 1 star because I thought there was more to do.

Tiger Kingdom is an opportunity to get up close and personal with several Indochinese tigers of varying ages and sizes that have been raised by hand in captivity since birth. Tiger Kingdom is an attractive, squeaky-clean setup located right next to the Go-Kart track in Kathu at the foot of Patong Hill. Essentially, this is where you’ll have to decide what size tiger you will visit in its cage: Single ticket prices start at 800 baht and a full combination ticket is 3,500 baht; this allows you to visit all the enclosures petting tigers of all ages with a professional photographer accompanying you in one cage. Predictably enough, the baby tigers are the most popular. There are strict procedures to follow at Tiger Kingdom: before entering an enclosure you’re asked to leave your belongings outside in a locker, remove your shoes and wash your hands. If you take a camera into the enclosure you are asked (more like told) to turn the flash off but each enclosure has a professional photographer in it to take a (fairly expensive) snap of you petting a tiger. Screens controlled by a computer system announce where you are allowed to be by quoting your ticket number next to the enclosure number. There are safety rules listed on colourful signs throughout Tiger Kingdom. Tiger Kingdom is largely made up of concrete; this facilitates keeping the place clean and yes, the place is almost spotless. The cats each have a pool in which to play and plenty of natural light. Their feeding time is at 19:00 and the best time of day to visit would appear to be opening time at 09:00 to avoid the crowds and heat.

The tigers and the cheetah look well maintained. For my liking some of the cages are a bit small, but it seems they get enough play time in the outer areas which are all fitted with pools for them to take a bath. The staff seems to be knowledgeable (something you don't see very often in places like this in this country). All in all, a much better choice to visit than Phuket Zoo, which is just horrible...the owners of Phuket Zoo should stand trial for animal abuse! The guys from Tiger Kingdom do love their animals and take well care of them. The place is spotless clean 🙂 Well worth a visit.

One of the must try excursion when in Phuket! opted for the most premium package to meet all the tigers, would not have made a difference if we were to opt for the mid package. People says these tigers are dosed off, i didn't feel that. Overall had fun !!

I love the place and I'm a big cat lover of course. I would say something on the *must do* in Phuket list. I spend a few hours over there and I want to come back for sure. Pictures looks nice and animals are quite easy going and friendly lol I meant, they are in a half sleeping mode so don't worry, they want eat you up. The kids can enjoy baby tigers. Cheers

Unique place to visit. One can spend time with tigers, one can love tigers, one can sleep with tigers, hold his tail etc which you can't do otherwise, albeit with their trainer.

This was such a fun experience! The tigers were so sweet and cute. They appear to be domesticated and taken care of with love. Check out my tiktok video from this experience @dahalalia

Loved the experience.. Tigers are very friendly and properly maintained. You can hire a professional photographer for 300 Bhat and will give you more than 90 photos. Also you can go near cheetahs and feed both tigers and cheetahs.. Various sizes of tigers are available here

iger Kingdom Phuket is a once in a lifetime experience where you can meet, play, and have your photo taken with tigers! Watch the tigers as you kick back with some food and drink from our top-quality restaurant. You are sure to have a very memorable experience! Open daily including public holidays from 9am to 5pm.

Tigers and cheetahs are not only beautiful and wonderful creatures but they need love, care, support and we need to preserve these species and create a safe environment in which they are nurtured and cared for. Meeting them and touching them in real was another enthralling and scintillating experience. We got a once-in-a-lifetime experience here in Phuket at Tiger Kingdom Phuket. The wild animals are raised in a totally safe and secure environment. They are loved without being scared, these big cats need to be protected and conserved as they are unique and lovely in a very special way and yes we were given instructions on where to touch the Tigers so that they are not offended and they also feel safe with us. A trainer was there inside the cage so that if the tiger gets disturbed he calms him down and we feel safe and feel the love he reciprocates which is very dear and special. Absolutely a one of a kind experience at Tiger Kingdom in Phuket which you can't get anywhere else!

At first I was against going to see captive tigers, but it turned out better than I expected. The tigers were not chained, defanged, or declawed. They were not mistreated. I saw a worker hit a tiger lightly with a stick to direct it where to walk. The park info says they are tame because they were all human raised from pubs. They had many tigers in enclosures that were not being used for guests, so the tigers were probably on rotation and not on duty all the time. We actually had fun in the experience, although I still feel guilty for enjoying it.

Zoo of Tigers You can see 5 sizes of tigers at one place Baby, small, Medium, large, Gaint. If you want to take photo with them in their cages a veriety of payments you have to mede ranging from 800 to 1350 Thai Baht You can spend an hour most here. Souvenirs are expensive out side shops One time watch at all

They spent good time in here.

Wanna experience the chilling experience if touch and being close to the big cat and most come to tiger kingdom and experience the trill of touching the tiger. Feel and touch the belly, tail, paws and hear the there growl standing next to them. Everyone should get this life time experience once.

Its a wonderful experience of being close to the majestic creatures of earth. I visited this place to experience the tigers closely and to touch them. Once I was done and returned to hotel, saw a lot of videos about what happens in the backstage and felt bad.

In Tiger Kingdom show much faer of Tigre but instructer guide are very good to helping them

Мне очень понравилось!!! Ходили к маленьким тигрятам.

(Translated by Google) Nobody needs to tell me: that the tigers will not be pacified (however, probably 100% pills / medicine are added). No tiger would voluntarily be petted by humans and as can be seen in photos: people cuddle with the tiger for the photo. The tigers are 1000% stunned and appear sleepy in the photos. Such photos are no go (Original) Kein Mensch braucht mir erzählen : das die Tiger nicht ruhig gestellt werden ( wie auch immer , wahrscheinlich gibt dazu 100 % tabletten / medizin ). Kein Tiger würde sich freiwillig vom Menschen streicheln lassen und wie auf fotos zu sehen ist : Menschen fürs foto mit dem Tiger kuscheln. Die Tiger sind 1000 % betäubt und wirken auf den fotos schläfrig. Solche fotos sind No Go

(Translated by Google) I do not recommend !!! Tigers are drugged. I wanted to be like everyone else. But never again !! The poor beasts are tied up and drugged. The baby tiger did not move. It was horrible ol would have said he was dead !! I never give 1 cent to this kind of place again. (Original) Je ne deconseille!!! Les tigres sont drogués. J ai voulu faire comme tout le monde. Mais plus jamais!! Les pauvres betes dont attachés et drogués. Le bebe tigre ne bougeait pas. C etait horrible ol aurait dit qu il etait mort!! Plus jamais je ne donne 1centime a ce genre d endroit.

Beautiful tiger and very friendly staff. Don't miss it if you visit Phuket.

Refused to go. Tigers drugged so that tourists, can have a photo taken. Both tourists and operators are shameless

(Translated by Google) Beautiful (Original) สวยดี​

We expected the place a little bigger but the cuddle of the tigers the stuff and all this was great :)

(Translated by Google) The animals are very sad. (Original) Animalele sunt foarte triste..

(Translated by Google) The staff and photographers took great care. Tigers and cage clean Recommend anyone to come to Phuket This activity should not be missed, absolutely five. I like it very much. (Original) สตาฟและช่างภาพดูแลดีมากๆเลยค่ะ เสือและกรงสะอาด แนะนำใครมาภูเก็ต กิจกรรมนี้ไม่ควรพลาด ห้า พลาดเด็ดขาดเลย เราชอบมากกกกกกกกกกกกกกก

(Translated by Google) You can also interact with the tiger. However, I'm scared because he's staring at me and saying guoguo. The staff is not afraid at all and tries to distract the tiger by hitting it with a stick, but when the tiger gets angry, what should I do? I feel more scared to stop. At 100B, the staff will take a picture of the contact with the tiger with a camera and share it with dropbox later. (Original) 虎と触れ合いもできます。が、見つめつつグオグオ言ってくるので怖いです。スタッフが全く怖がらずに棒で虎の顔バシバシ叩いて気を逸させようとしますが、それ虎怒ったらどうすんだよやめてくれよと余計怖い思いができます。100Bでスタッフが虎との触れ合いをカメラで撮って、後ほどdropboxで共有してくれます。

(Translated by Google) Anyone who claims the animals are not stunned is lying. I advise anyone against visiting, it was almost worse to endure than riding an elephant. (Original) Jeder der behauptet die Tiere sind nicht betäubt lügt. Ich rate jedem von einem Besuch ab, es war fast noch schlimmer zu ertragen als das Elefantenreiten.

(Translated by Google) Dorgovato and sluggish tigers, in the comments they write that under the influence of somnolent ... (Original) Доррговато и тигры вялые, в коментариях пишут, что под влиянием снатворного...

Amazing experience

(Translated by Google) Recently, there are very few people, the price is very cheap. (Original) ช่วงนี้คนน้อยมาก ราคาถูก น่าไปมากๆ

(Translated by Google) Luckily they get along well with the animals (Original) Gaan gelukkig goed met de dieren om

(Translated by Google) No matter what others say, it was very nice to see and touch such large animals up close. Was a nice experience !! And everything was very clean and well maintained! (Original) Egal was andere sagen, fand es sehr schön mal solch grosse Tiere hautnah zu sehen und anfassen zu können. War ein schönes Erlebnis !! Und alles sehr sauber und gepflegt !!

They abouse and drug the tigers , its sad and heart bracking that they have to live there

It's a must to do when in Phuket.

Good experience

Amazing experience. If you have children along with you must go inside

(Translated by Google) I don't know if it's expensive or cheap, but you can have a rare experience. There are also goods May be a good souvenir However, some are more expensive than Japan It seems that you will not be bitten to death unless you stroke it from the front Also, I was told that I should stop using perfume. They are sensitive to odors (Original) 高いか安いかはわからないけど希少な体験ができます。 グッズもあり お土産には良いかも しかし、日本より高いものもあり 正面から撫でなければ噛み殺されないそうです あと、香水はやめといた方が良いとか言われました 彼らは匂いに敏感です

(Translated by Google) Excellent ... shaking shakes. (Original) สุดยอดเลย...แข้งสั่นรัวๆๆ

(Translated by Google) Good story about that extinction. Everyone understands that wild predators (besides that this is not supposed to be and is not okay) do not allow themselves to be stroked without drying agents? (Original) Goed verhaal over dat uitsterven. Iedereen begrijpt toch ook dat wilde roofdieren (naast dat dit niet hoort en niet oke is)zich niet laten aaien zonder droogeer middelen?

(Translated by Google) Tiger is very cute 😊 (Original) น้องเสือน่ารักมากๆค่ะ 😊

Friendly staffs

Nice place to spend the time with tigers

A very attentive staff. Knowledgeable and helpful. A very good experience for me.

Great time to go not very busy

Amazing experience. I loved the baby tigers. They were so cute and warm. They also love being held. When handling the babies you have to wear protective gear to keep them safe. I got there early, right when the place opened. I reccomend going very early. I was able to get in and out easily. The adults were very active too. However, when i left it was busy and I could tell the adults were being drugged in order for them to be complacent with petting. That part was pretty sad.

It is.a.well organized place. There is always a trainer inside with you showing you how to handle the tigers. They also have a professional photography service that you can pay for.

Tamed though. But mid sized tigers they show performance which is fantastic experience

It's a nice place. The Tigers are healthy and well-fed. They're tame, so you can get really close to them. The staff are nice and friendly. However, the queue can be a bit long.

Would highly recommend. It is a great experience. There are around 40 tigers and leopards there. You can pay a fee of 800 baht for a big tiger for a 15 minute entry to the cage to click pictures .

If you have courage to take photo with tiger and cheetah, then only you need to visit here. They will be charged 500 baht for entering to tiger kingdom without taking photo which is not worth. For taking photo with tiger, they will charge 900 to 1200 baht based on size. For cheetah you need to pay 1200 baht. There is combo Package available and that is better. Of course it will be risky. If you check history, multiple times tiger attacked tourists here. If you love adventure then you must visit here.

tigers are awesome. I almost missed this great opportunity. There is nothing to be afraid of. As long as you follow the rules of course :) It is a nice place where you can buy small things for souvenir. definitely worth seeing. Be sure to observe and obey the rules for touching tigers. love

The tiger was so cute and they also have cheetah now!!! Omg it was so cute too!! Love it. The staff there were really good at taking photos and videos!!! We wanted to see the baby tiger but it was so so so expensive ! $2400baht per person!! And it will take 1-2 hours to wait for taking photos!! Thus we had passed!! 🥲

A one of lifetime experience being physically present and playing with the big cats right next to them It was lovely to see them hand raised as a cub and so tamed as well The most cleanest tigers I have ever seen :p they are super soft to give belly rubs too Grab your tickets directly at the counter and choose the big tigers to play around with

It’s was for sure a thrilled experience. My kid just loves being with the cheetah. Kids are allowed only to cheetah hence we all went with it as tigers seeing had long waiting time too. The trainer was very friendly n guide us with what to do, where to touch.. they allow us to take as many as pics n videos with ur own phone hence u don’t have to spend for professional photography. The only thing I noticed was, even though it’s said it’s not sedated n all, the Tiger n cheetah which were into the cage were more active n wandering around, those with whom we are doing meet n greet are all laid out n all in sleepy mode, it was disturbing us. But all things aside, it’s individual preference.. a good place to visit n get clicked along side the wild cats..

Once in a lifetime experience. It is amazing to get so close to the tigers. The little ones are very playful as well. The bigger ones always remind you who is the boss. Always follow instructions as these tigers are fully aware of the surrounding and active. They are trained to be ok with people sitting with them. But sometimes they decide to get up and walk😀😀 and you should be still and not run. Staff here is very friendly as well. Well maintained. Amazing experience

You will get to spend around 10 mins to take photos and if you want them to take photos you will have to pay extra. The tigers were sleeping when we went and the person put some water which is so cruel.

Husband and I went and bought tickets once we arrived for encounter with the giant tigers it was about a 30 min wait. Was able to go around to see other tigers and cheetahs while waiting. Paid extra for a photographer but was still able to get a video with our phones as well. Overall, the experience was great!!

Great seeing some tigers, the big ones are really big. The funny thing about people reviewing negatively have no problem when in their own countries there is zoos that keep animals caged.

It was really wonderful experience to be so close with real tigers. Guides support staff all were very helpful and price os also affordable.

It feels scary to see the tigers so close. It’s an experience to touch the tigers and hold its tail and watch it eat grass. There are different sizes of Tigers you can touch and interact with. Children can only go to see small tiger. I went for Medium Tiger as i was scared about the Giant Tiger. After touching the tiger It made me question myself how we as humans are controlling the planet and wild? Tigers are to be kept in Wild not in captivity. But as the tiger Kingdim endorse that they are all hand raised and well fed so they are all calm. But when I experienced it they were actually calm and listening to their keepers in open.
