How to get there?

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 can rent a red pick up taxi which the price may vary and negotiable but the price can be high as the route is out of their service range and also extra charge if you are 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 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).
