Where is all the evidence of black market dealings and tigers disappearing?? The volunteers I spoke to expressed love for the temple and their mission. If you're skeptical don't go.

The option Drew mentioned is probably the best, but there is a cheaper way to do the tiger cub feeding. After you arrive at the park after 12am, ask the guides inside about the tiger cub option. It will cost you 1000 THB per adult (I don't know about the children price). It was available at 12:30, 13:30 and 14:30. I chose the middle one, and there was no problem whatsoever with the number of people (we were 6 inside), or the sleepiness of the cubs (they were really playful, and the volunteers are really great about caring them, while making the best possible time for the guests either).

Volunteer? Recently some girl post an article about tiger "temples" in a expats community in Facebook, this girl was censored and banished by the administrator after he receive pressure of some "animal friendly" thai organization, weird for just a press article, right? I wonder what can be happen if one of those "volunteer" talk. I'm sorry but clearly you no have idea what are you talking about it, is a huge and danger mafia, even with "buddhist monks" involved, they don't care about the animals or nothing, they only want make money with some silly and ignorant tourist that coming here believing that those huge animals look friendly and cute for no reason, they are very happy that thousands pay for the same stupid picture. Imagen how bad can be that the government is trying to shooting down when the country have a lot of more important issues, as human traffic for example. Anyway, same happened with elephants, now barely you can see elephants working in the streets of the big cities, thankfully elephants are "holy" in Thailand and now are trying to protect them, even with some cruelty still. Again, I am truly sorry but no, you have no idea how bad is.

Don´t do it, is just a scam for tourist, Tiger Temple is horrible, scammers that have the animals with sedatives all the time.

Its around two and half hour drive from Bangkok, there would definitely be some travell arrangement though we were a group of ten so we had a pvt van also we had stayed in kanchanaburi for a night so we could also do the erawan waterfall (a must if your going all the way to tiger wat), I suggest u to enquire at ur hotel/hostel reception at Bangkok
