If you are speaking of the tour to the monastery where the monks take in abandoned tigers and raise them, we did it in November. We did it in conjunction with Bridge on the River Kwai and and elephant camp. The total time we were gone was 3 days. If you do the day trip, it is about 3 hours drive to the temple and 3 hours back. It makes for a long day 8AM-6PM.

 

Don't try to do the one day, Hell Fire pass, Bridge on the River Kwai tour. You won't get to spend very much time with the tigers, as you have to go to the cemetary, the bridge, take the "death" train, etc. That part took us the better part of 5 hours. So you would not get much time with the tigers.

 

Enjoy!!! It was fabulous. We arranged to stay very close to the monastery, so had quite a little time with the tigers.

Thankyou so ,uch for your help. As we will be on Superstar Virgo which is in Bankok for a full day (till 10 at night) I think we might try to get a private tour guide to just do the tiger temple. Although a long day I think this would be worth it
