Kanchanaburi - Safari Park

Just 40 km from town on the way to Bo Phloi, the Safari Park is a man-made habitat for sevral African & Asian animals - lions, tigers, giraffes, zebras and bears. The landscaping is beautifully designed and offers great insights into the habits of the animals.

Kanchanaburi Safari Park
Open daily: 9.00am - 6.00pm
Entry Fee: Adults 120 Th.Baht - Children 30 Th.Baht


The whole area around the park is highlighted by some beautifully decorated pavilions which house gift shops, cafes and restaurants.

You can tour around the park in your own car but the best way to see the whole grounds is to take one of the park's own buses.

The driver will take you through each section, giving you excellent photo opportunities as well as getting "up close and personal" with several animals, most notably the giraffes who will "invade" the bus for some food...great fun!


Bowls of food to feed the animals can be bought from the main entrance for just a few Baht.

At the centre of the park is the central pavilion restaurant and show arena.

The restaurant itself sits overlooking a lake and is a good spot for a cold drink before heading off to see one of the many daily animal shows.
