Why don't you go to see the Tiger Monks which are near the River Kwai.You are able to touch the tigers and the other animals roam freely it is truly awesome.We hired a driver and went to the River Kwai and to see the Tiger Monks because if you go on a tour it can take too long to go there (stops to pick up other tourists from their hotels along the way). When you have a driver for a day there isn't the crowds and you can stop and start when you want to.Seeing the River Kwai and museum was very touching and to see the burial grounds sent shivers down my spine. You won't be disappointed if you go there and try to get a long tail boat down the river while you're there.
