We're a bit sceptical about this one. However, after having done it we thought it was grrrrrreat (couldn't resist).

Tigers are certainly not drugged. We saw them playing very energetically at one point. Reason they are usually so chilled out is because it is very hot.

We also didn't see any evidence of poor treatment. The tigers looked healthy.

We went for the big and smallest option plus photographer which worked out to ~2,500b ($80) for two of us. A bargain for what it was and something that you probably would never do again.

We were allowed as much time as we wanted with the tigers. Big ones were very impressive. We could touch them anywhere apart from head and front paws. Smallest were very cute but just wanted to sleep (2 months old).

The photos were fantastic which we got on CD. We asked them to put the photos on USB stick which we had with us and they didn't have a problem.

Staff were friendly and helpful. You can ask the keepers questions about tigers.

If you got time to see the tigers we would certainly recommend!
