Tips & Tricks from Real Parents
Combine with Kuang Si Waterfall in one trip. The bear center is at the entrance, the waterfall is 15 minutes uphill.
Get there for the 9 AM feeding time - bears are most active and rangers do a short educational talk.
The gift shop sells stuffed moon bears (about $8) and proceeds go to bear rescue.
Kids under 10 might find the rescue backstory tough. Preview it with them first.
No flash photography - it spooks the rescued bears who were abused by humans.
Visit the bear center BEFORE hiking to the waterfall when energy is high.

A Real Parent's Story
My daughter decided to save bears that day
“She watched a rescued moon bear pace its enclosure, then asked why. Two years later she is raising money for the center.”
Read full story
The ranger gently explained the moon bears stories. Our daughter listened with her hand over her mouth. Now she does bake sales for Tat Kuang Si. The bears changed her.
