Safari Tours: The Thailand Safari World tour begins at around 09:00 am. You can watch animals from different regions of the world, like Asia & Africa, such as camels, ostriches, rhinos, species of deer, etc. You may encounter large free-flying water birds here.

About 15 to 20 minutes later, you will be entering into the carnivores’ area. Here, you can find tigers, lions, and bears. It is more like an open zoo experience if you are visiting for the first time.

Tip: Look for high tree branches to find their nests.

Giraffe Terrace: There is a dedicated place in Safari World where you can get close to giraffes, interact with them, and feed them. Don’t miss opportunities to take photos for lasting memories.
