The zoo is opening time is 11:00-22:00 hrs. (Last entry 21:00 hrs.). Each day, there are 2 period of time available which are Day Safari and Night Safari. Ticket for Day Safari is cheaper. However, Night Safari has 3 shows included in the price. So, we suggest you should come at night if you want a full experience at Chiang Mai Night Safari.&nbsp;

Most people will use their personal car to get to Chiang Mai Night Safari. It takes about 20 minutes drive from Chiang Mai city and there is no public transportation directly to this destination. You&nbsp;can rent a red pick up taxi which the price may vary and negotiable&nbsp;but the price can be high&nbsp;as the route is out of their service&nbsp;range and also extra charge&nbsp;if you are&nbsp;foreign tourist. The other option is the mobile application "Grab" which you can call a private car to pick you up from your current location and drop at&nbsp;your destination. The price for Grab car is about 150-200 THB per way which not too much when you travel with 3-4 people. On the way back, there are taxi stand located next to the parking lot. The red pick-up taxi will charge 300 THB back to Chiang Mai city and you may share with other traveler but you have to wait until it's full capacity which depending on the time you leave as well. You might have a better chance if you arrive early and leave early. For a Grab Car, you have to wait in front of the Giraffe restaurant which is quite dark but it's the only place where the drive can pick you up. (the front entrance is blocked, so you have to walk to this spot).

The Night round is start at 17:00 hrs.&nbsp;We&nbsp;suggest you should arrived at this&nbsp;time as it's not too crowded and the sunset light is perfect for photograph both people and animals.

After&nbsp;you purchase the online ticket from Ticket2Attraction, you will receive the travel voucher which you can save it in your smart phone. Once you arrive at the Chiang Mai Night Safari, the registration staff will give you the time table that shows you which activity you should do first.
