Passeios por Safari Park Kanchanaburi

Our family had an amazing time visiting the Safari Park and Death Railway. It was such a fun and unforgettable experience! The absolute highlight was feeding the giraffes—getting so close to them was a thrill for both the kids and adults. We also visited the historic River Kwai Bridge and made sure to take a one-station train ride. Traveling along the cliffside on the vintage tracks offered breathtaking views and a real sense of history. This trip is perfect for families looking for a mix of wildlife adventure and culture. Highly recommended!

Totally recommend this day trip. It was a very long day, but absolutely worth the journey to see these amazing historic sights. Tour guide was very professional but a little hard to understand (no issue however). It was a small group travelling by mini van. Plenty of toilet and snack stops. The giraffes at the safari park was a real highlight along with the train ride on the death railway. Meet up point was easy to find, check in easy and tour arrived back about 8pm. Highly recommend this tour but be prepared for a long day.

Since we were staying one night in Kanchanaburi, we booked a two-day private car charter. The car company contacted us via email three days before departure to confirm the departure time and itinerary. Safari Park is further away and requires an additional charge. The driver was very friendly, communicating with us using simple English and Google Translate. The journey from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi takes about 2.5-3 hours. When we told the driver we needed a restroom break, he stopped at a gas station for us. On the way to the hotel in the evening, he even asked if we wanted to stop at a convenience store to buy anything. The long drives between Bangkok, Kanchanaburi, and various attractions were always smooth and safe with the driver. Upon arriving at attractions, the driver, although not obligated to be a tour guide, would tell us what there was to see and even helped us take photos. For example, at the Bridge over the River Kwai, he told us what time the train would pass, encouraging us to stay a little longer to see it. Overall, this private car charter service allowed us to have a wonderful two-day, one-night stay in Kanchanaburi.

Pipi Tony is de beste! Ik vond het geweldig hoe hij een korte geschiedenis van Thailand en de plaatsen die we bezochten deelde. Hij ondersteunde zijn verhalen zelfs met foto's, waardoor we ze nog meer waardeerden. Hij was geduldig, leuk om mee om te gaan en leerde ons zelfs hoe we moesten afdingen op de markt. Hij raadde ook gerechten aan om te proberen die ons hielpen geld te besparen zonder de ervaring te missen. Ik kan deze tour echt aan iedereen aanbevelen!

Our female tour guide was excellent; not only did she clearly explain the key details in both English and Chinese, but the experience was so good that you would definitely want to come back if given the chance to go on a similar tour. Keep it up for her…🙏🏻🙂

Our tour guide, Miss Wan, is so knowledgable about the spots and so accommodating to all our questions and requests. Bus ride is comfortable with complimentary cold water bottles after a quick walk to the bus from our first stop. We depart a bit late since other joiners are not yet with us but we went back to the city on time. Overall, my mom and I enjoyed the join in tour. Highly recommended for a hassle free getaway from the city center ❤️ Tip: rent a golfcart to roam around the Ancient City on your own. You may get confused with the roads but def you’ll enjoy the ride while seeing different replicas of famous temples/statues around Thailand attractions on the way: 10/10 itinerary: 8/10 (its more of a layback tour so its not for everyone who likes more exciting activities) guide: 10/10 LOVE MISS WAAAN!!!

Our guide was truly great. Both he and the insurance guy were happy to take photos of us, which is excellent, especially for solo travelers like me. I was even left behind in Wat Arun and they already crossed the river to Wat Pho because they forgot to do a headcount. It was my fault anyway as I got too fixated with my phone lol. The only unfavorable comment I have is that the entrances for the temples are too expensive but everything else was great!

I selected the speedboat and for me it was a good choice - speedboats are smaller with smaller groups. A bit more choppy but no issues. The trip was organized well with pickups and drop-offs, decent dinner. Our guide was really good and clear about when we needed to come back to the boat. I found that stops were long enough - even though I could use a bit more snorkeling time (but that is personal preference). Overall, a very good experience.
