PATTAYA – TIGER TOPIA ZOO

Tiger Topia Zoo (formerly Tiger Park) sits in Si Racha, on the road between Pattaya and Bangkok, and is built around live big-cat and crocodile experiences rather than walk-past enclosures. Visitors get up close to tigers, lions, white lions and crocodiles, with several interactions you can take part in directly. It works well as a day out for Indian families, including young children and older relatives, since most of what draws people here can be enjoyed from the show seating without any physical activity.

The zoo opens daily and the day revolves around a handful of set experiences:

• Tiger Show: trained tigers jump through rings and cross raised beams with their handlers. The show is included in your entry ticket.
• Crocodile Show: handlers perform routines at close range with the crocodiles. This is also included in your ticket.
• Photo with the big cats: a supervised close-up photo with a Big Tiger, Baby Tiger, Lion, White Lion or Large Crocodile, chosen as a paid add-on at the zoo.
• Animal feeding: optional paid sessions that include shoot-and-feed a tiger, feeding the crocodiles, or feeding a tiger on a guided tour.
• Forest Walk with a tiger: a supervised walk alongside a tiger, open only to guests above 140 cm. It is capped at roughly 20 places a day and tends to fill early, so book ahead.

The zoo is open daily from 09:00 AM to 04:00 PM, with last entry at 03:30 PM. A focused visit takes about 1–2 hours, though many families stay longer so both the Tiger Show and Crocodile Show fit comfortably into the day. We send the current show timings on WhatsApp before you travel, since they are fixed at set hours.

Khaana ki tension nahi: the on-site Royal Bengal Tigers Restaurant serves an Indian breakfast and an Indian lunch at ฿200 each, so meals are sorted even when you have children and elders with you.

The site suits families with children, multi-generation groups and anyone keen on wildlife and big-cat photos. Expect a fair amount of open-air walking between enclosures, so bring water, caps and sunscreen. The Forest Walk applies the 140 cm minimum and is not open to young children.
