Visitor tips

  • Book online: Purchase tickets in advance to save money and skip the long queues. Combo tickets (Safari Park + Marine Park) offer better value than buying separately.
  • Check show schedules: Review the daily show schedule and plan your day around must-see performances like the Dolphin, Sea Lion, Orangutan, and Elephant shows. Arrive early for popular shows to secure good seats
  • Best time to visit: Visit on weekdays for fewer crowds. The park is busiest on weekends and public holidays. The coolest, most comfortable months are November to February.
  • Transport options: Taxis and ride-sharing services are the most convenient, taking about 45–60 minutes from central Bangkok. 
  • Extra costs: Many activities (giraffe feeding, river safari, animal photos, games) require additional payment. Plan your budget accordingly and prioritize the experiences most important to you.
  • Navigation: Grab a map at the entrance and use park signage to navigate between Safari Park (drive-through, open zoo) and Marine Park (walk-through, shows, and exhibits).
  • Animal interaction: Do not touch or feed animals unless part of a supervised feeding session. Follow all park rules and staff instructions for your safety and the animals’ welfare.
