Fantastic experience, breakfast with orangutangs was basic but wonderful and the zoo is amazing with lots of animal interactions, keeper talks and close up viewing. Highly recommend

It’s a must!
5/5
A must-see!!! It's certainly changed a lot in the last 15 years. It used to be more "wild" with animals, and it seems like there were more of them. Now it's more convenient with trams that take you from one location to another. There are lots of shows, though you have to pay extra for some things, but the kids love it.
5/5
I recommend it.
5/5
I purchased tickets on the day and had a great time. Since it is outdoors, it is quite hot, so you need to manage your energy well. (There were air-conditioned indoor areas here and there, so we rested there before moving on.) The children loved being able to see more animals up close than in Korea. You can also take a tram, so I recommend planning your route carefully.
Mandai Wildlife Reserve | Night Safari

Completed in 1994, the Night Safari holds the title of the world's very first nocturnal wildlife park!

Exploring for the animals in the dark, watching their nocturnal movements with a mix of anticipation and fear, is a unique experience. However, you must arrive early to queue before it gets completely dark to see the animals. Queuing can be quite time-consuming, so consider hiking the trails first before taking the tour bus to reduce waiting time. There are also educational shows inside! 👍🏻 Remember to check the last bus time!! Leaving after the park closes will cause you to miss the last subway train 🙈
5/5
Yes, it was worth it! Seeing the animals at night was an amazing experience and something very different from a typical zoo visit. The whole atmosphere was unique, and it was fascinating to watch the animals when they are naturally more active. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Singapore.
5/5
Very beautiful and lovely animals
5/5
Fun place!
4/5
It's about a 20-minute bus ride from the train station. It takes over an hour from the city center. A 2-hour round trip for a 2-night, 3-day stay is a bit inconvenient. The tram ride is only about 30 minutes, so if you don't enjoy the park on your own, it's about 7000 yen for 30 minutes, which is pretty good value for money. The night safari itself was very fulfilling.
Mandai Wildlife Reserve | River Wonders
River Wonders
River Wonders, completed in 2012, is the newest addition to the Mandai Wildlife Reserve.
As Asia’s first and only river-themed wildlife park, it shines a spotlight on the vital, yet increasingly threatened, river ecosystems of our world. Come explore and meet over 240 species of land and aquatic animals, including the park's most famous residents—the Giant Pandas!
River Wonders welcomes you daily from 10:00 to 19:00! Just a heads-up for your adventure: the Amazon River Quest and Squirrel Monkey Forest are open from 11:00 to 18:00, and you can visit the adorable residents of the Giant Panda Forest between 10:00 and 18:15.

I purchased it on the day of my visit and used it well. It rained in the afternoon, but fortunately, the pathways were all covered, so I was able to look around without getting wet.
5/5
It's easy to get there – there's a shuttle from Khatib metro station to the zoo for $2.50. There are lots of interesting fish, crocodiles, pandas, and a great ride along the Amazon River. You ride on a boat through the jungle, and animals are everywhere. It's interesting.
4/5
🚤 River Quest Add-OnWe also purchased the additional River Quest boat ride. Thankfully, the rain stopped in time for the ride to resume operations. Since it’s an outdoor attraction, operations may pause depending on conditions, so that’s something to take note of. There were slight thrill during the boat rides of the slopes downwards! The enclosures were very near, but sadly there was not much animals we saw today. The whole boat ride duration was slightly short. The queue was very well maintained and organised by the volunteers there! Kudos!

Unfortunately, the weather wasn't cooperating, and some animals were missed due to the rain.

As the largest bird park in Asia, Bird Paradise is a vibrant jewel nestled within Singapore’s sprawling Mandai Wildlife Reserve.
Home to approximately 3,500 birds across over 400 species, the park is a sanctuary for global biodiversity.
