Incredible!
I debated whether to go for hours before - seeing comments about drugging and the tigers being treated cruelly made me worried. After seeing so many positive reviews on here I decided to give it a go and make my own opinion, and all I can see is WOW. The animal keepers were so friendly and clearly loved working with the tigers, and the tigers clearly loved their keepers. They talked to them, rubbed up against them like domestic cats, and we spent ages watching two cats running round playing with a bunch of leaves, happy as anything. The animal keepers told us about their routines, how they look after the tigers and train them, and explained the strict rules that the government imposes to ensure the tigers are looked after fairly and ethically. We waited 15 minutes to feed one tiger because she didn't want to sit down. The keepers did nothing, just kept encouraging her whilst letting her do her own thing. The cages are not massive, but tigers sleep 18-20 hours a day. When they are awake they get turns in outside enclosures. They all have access to water. Reading the varied reviews and going myself makes it quite obvious that most of the people posting negative reviews have never set foot inside the place. You should never judge a hook by its cover. I am a big animal lover and it breaks my heart seeing animals treated cruelly in any way. I felt so happy seeing the tigers, and would highly recommend it!

Pet a tiger for 700 BHT
Although 700 BHT (a little less than $20 USD) is more expensive than most Thailand activities, it’s way less than you would pay for most animal experiences elsewhere. The tigers are under the supervision of trainers and are not sedated. We were able to get an entire group of six people into the tiger cage to pet the tiger one by one, and they let us stay as long as we wanted to take photos (though this might be less liberal if it was a busy day). We were able to tour the grounds to see the other tigers they had residing there. It was pleasant and not crowded at all. There was a coffee shop in the parking lot for refreshments afterward and a few tiger souvenirs in the gift shop.
