About Khao Kheow Open Zoo Pattaya

Khao Kheow Open Zoo is one of Thailand's premier wildlife destinations, featuring a sprawling sanctuary where animals roam in spacious, naturalistic habitats rather than traditional cages. With thrilling interactive shows, animal feeding experiences, and a remarkable collection of species from across the globe, this Pattaya attraction offers an educational and unforgettable day immersed in nature.

Local Legends & Stories

Khao Kheow, meaning 'green mountain' in Thai, has become a cornerstone of Pattaya's tourism and wildlife education scene since its establishment. The zoo reflects Thailand's growing commitment to ethical animal tourism and conservation, setting standards for humane zoological practices across Southeast Asia.

Must Do Experiences

  • Watch the thrilling predator feeding show where you'll see big cats and crocodiles in action

  • Participate in interactive animal feeding sessions to get up close with giraffes, zebras, and other herbivores

  • Experience the ALCAZAR cabaret show, a dazzling performance included with your VIP ticket

  • Explore the open-air tram ride through the zoo grounds to maximize your viewing without exhaustion

Hidden Gems

  • The zoo's night safari experience (available separately) reveals nocturnal animal behavior that daytime visitors typically miss

What Makes it Special

  • The zoo prioritizes animal welfare with generous, naturalistic enclosures that mimic native habitats rather than confining animals to small spaces

Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

Visit early morning between 8:30 AM and 10:30 AM when animals are most active and the temperature is coolest. The cool season from November to February offers the most comfortable weather for extended walking and exploration. Avoid midday heat (12 PM to 3 PM) and rainy season months when visibility decreases and some areas become muddy.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

  • Capture animals during early morning and late afternoon when golden hour lighting creates stunning backlit shots and brings out natural colors

  • The giraffe feeding platform and open savanna sections provide excellent opportunities for clear, close-range wildlife photography without barriers

  • Bring a telephoto lens as many animals are positioned at considerable distances within their naturalistic enclosures for their comfort

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

Dress respectfully and modestly when visiting the ALCAZAR Show in the evening; smart casual attire is appropriate. Thai culture values respect for animals, so follow all signage and staff instructions regarding animal interactions. Tipping is customary in Thailand at around 10-15% for guides or 20 baht per person for staff who assist you.

Special Events & Experiences

Enhanced experiences and seasonal highlights

  • The zoo hosts seasonal animal breeding success celebrations and educational camps during school holidays, particularly during Thai summer break in May and June. Peak festive season from November through January sees enhanced performances and special themed events as part of Thailand's high tourism season.

Important Guidelines & Safety

Essential safety information and guidelines

  • Stay hydrated throughout the day as the open zoo provides significant sun exposure; carry water or purchase drinks at the cafe

  • Wear insect repellent and closed-toe shoes to protect against mosquitoes and minor injuries on walking paths

  • Keep valuables secure and follow all safety barriers and instructions, especially during animal feeding demonstrations

Visitor Information

Entry Fee

Your ticket includes admission to Khao Kheow Open Zoo and a VIP ticket to the ALCAZAR Show, providing excellent value by combining two major attractions. Note that the tram and night safari are separately ticketed experiences not included in standard admission.

Visit Duration
