We visited the temple on a tour that included feeding of the cubs in the morning. It was an amazing experience, something we will never forget! We also helped feed the bigger cubs, washed them and played with them. We also stayed in a fenced-in area while the big tigers were playing in a pond-like area. The trip is worth... More

Took tour from Bangkok as I was curious about claims that you could actually pet a tiger. Long trip from Bangkok but yes, you do get to pet a couple of tigers. The tigers are located in a temple run by the monks at the Temple Tiger. The grounds are very barren with various areas where the tigers are located.... More

The Tiger temple tour was part of a full day tour which included the Bridge of the River Kawi. The temple run by the monks has student volunteers from all over the world who take wonderful care of the tigers. Everyone gets a chance to walk with a full grown tiger which is on a chain. There are two programs... More

My husband and I just returned from Thailand where we visited the controversial Tiger Temple near Kanchanaburi. This temple, run by monks, is evidently a lightning rod for controversy. We wanted to visit the place to see for ourselves. Student "volunteers" at the temple say there are over 100 tigers in captivity and the tigers are being bred evidently with... More

I have read the debate about whether or not the tigers are drugged. Either way, mellow from the heat or a good life or drugd, this was an awesome experience. I had a full grown tigers head on my lap. I have no words for the feeling. If you can do this, make the contribution to their care, and enjoy... More

Visited the place in 2008 - especially recommended is the morning program where the tigers are very active and play in the water. The afternoon program was crowded but is was fun to approach the big cats while they were resing in the heat. I put photo's of this and of an elephant park in Chiang Mai on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb51XOOa74M&feature=g-upl More

I visited Tiger Temple on a tour last month and had a fantastic time. The cub feeding was a bit expensive, but definitely worth it. Our pictures came out great. The cubs were playful and quite eager to be fed (one even broke the nipple off the bottle!) It seems some people were unhappy with the animal's conditions, but nothing... More

We took a morning tour (for about 20 visitors) with a company called Bangkok Day Tours http://www.bangkokdaytours.com/ which we found searching the Internet. Having spoken to people on our last visit to Thailand they, having done the morning tour, seemed to have a totally different experience to some of the reviews on here. What a wonderful day. The morning is... More

This was perhaps the best activity we did when we were in Bangkok. Here you get a chance to get up, close and personal with tigers, get your photos taken and perhaps play with a cub or two. Awesome experience. More
