Gibbon Safari is 2 days of fun and exciting activities at Flight of the Gibbon and the Khao Kheeo Open Safari.

Khao Kheeo Open Safari is a magnificent blend of forests, wild animals, bird aviary and responsible animal management. Sponsored by HM Queen Sirikit, the zoo has grown in size, scope and importance. Internationally recognized for its animal management and operations, the zoo has features that make it a great day trip for the entire family. More than 300 species and 8,000 animals populate the 5,000 rai (~2000 acre) sanctuary. Six of the newer residents of the zoo are rare white tigers exchanged by the Memphis Zoo in the USA.

Khao Kheow is described as a “wildlife bank” as many animals are on the endangered species list. The zoo is known for success in breeding some of these endangered animals. One such project is breeding the rare Clouded Leopard. Other endangered mammals at the zoo include the Asian Wild Dog, Malayan Tapir and tiger.

Rare Asian bird species draw bird watchers from around the world. A walk-though aviary has been built on a mountain slope and presents an appealing environment. The aviary is Asia’s second largest. Endangered bird species at the zoo include the Black Necked Stork and White Crested Laughing Thrush as two examples.

Flight of the Gibbon™ Zipline Adventure Tour

Flight of the Gibbon is nestled in the heart of one of Thailand’s best natural settings. On one side it is bordered by the 74,000 acre Chompoo Wildlife Sanctuary, which is home to some of Thailand’s most unique plant and animal life, and on the other side by the Khao Kheeo Open Safari, Thailand’s only “open safari.” The site allows visitors to experience the majesty of the forest while engaging in fun, low environmental-impact activities.

This is the capital’s first zip-line tour and adventure course, and sits amidst a diverse wildlife population, including giant squirrels, barking deer, macaques, and giant storks. It is also home to the more elusive gibbons, wild boar, bears, deer and hornbills.

The zip-line tour, Flight of the Gibbon, at over 3 kilometers, is the longest in Thailand and has 26 platforms. 1 zip-line stretches over 300 meters! The site offers spectacular ocean views to visitors as they “fly” through the rainforest canopy on a state-of-the-art, ultra-safe zip-line course.
