Each year, the zoo delights over 1.7 million visitors, offering a chance to connect with more than 300 animal species—including 26% that are endangered. The Singapore Zoo welcomes guests daily from 08:30 to 18:00, with last entry at 17:00.

Breakfast in the Wild was a very fulfilling experience. You can see animals while having breakfast. You can take pictures up close with penguins, parrots, owls, lizards?, and orangutans. The children also enjoyed it very much. It was also great that it was cheaper than the official price.
4/5
The zoo itself is small, but there's plenty of greenery everywhere, so it's not too hot to walk around. There are paths and signs everywhere, and plenty of cafes. It's a great place. The night safari is fantastic; it takes place on a different route in the same zoo; these animals aren't accessible during the day. It was surprisingly crowded. First, we rode the little train; the line was quite long, but it moved quickly. Then we walked the trail. It felt very mysterious; the paths were dimly lit, and there were several secret entrances. I definitely recommend the night safari. The zoo itself is also nice, but small.
4/5
Singapore Zoo is quite large, with various feeding shows and performances. When booking, carefully check the show and feeding times to avoid having to walk back and forth. Most of the park has shelter, so it wasn't as hot as I expected; I think the layout is quite good. The Amazon River cruise in the River Safari was quite fun, but unfortunately, there weren't many animals to see—maybe they were all hiding because of the heat? Haha~ But visiting two parks in one day was really tiring… I suggest focusing on Singapore Zoo if it's your first time here.
Mandai Wildlife Reserve | Night Safari
Night Safari!
Completed in 1994, the Night Safari holds the title of the world's very first nocturnal wildlife park!
It’s a rare, magical opportunity to witness animal behavior after dark and catch some truly stunning performances. Home to over 100 species—nearly 41% of which are endangered—the Night Safari is a must-visit. Come explore today and discover the incredible work they’re doing for wildlife conservation!
Get ready for an unforgettable adventure! The Night Safari welcomes explorers from Thursday through Sunday, as well as on public holidays and their eves. We're open from 6:30 PM to 11:59 PM, with the last entry at 11:15 PM—don't miss out on the magic!
Reviews of Night Safari
4.3/5
1873 reviews5/5
The place is unique—the animals are shown at night, illuminated, like you're in Africa at night. But it feels weaker than the daytime zoo: many of the animals are repeated, and they're easier to see during the day. The main drawback was that we booked a late slot and had to wait about two hours to get in.
Lifehacks:
Get a ticket for the Night Safari for an early slot. I don't recommend specifically following the show: it might actually be an owl turning its head, or a tiger feeding where they just throw it a chicken leg. At the daytime zoo, allow time for the walking tour—that's where the most interesting part is.
Bottom line: the daytime zoo is definitely one of the best in the world, vibrant and completely unlike the cages behind bars. Book the Night Safari as an add-on. Highly recommended!

The animals there are so unique. I have never seen most of the animals there in my life. My daughter's favorite was the Sea Otter while my son's was the Fennec Fox. The show there was also amazing. However, the line was too long for the tram, so we had to take the trails and it was already well past my daughter's bedtime. We got the lucky opportunity to see the tiger's dinner feeding time and it was phenomenal. My personal favorite was the porcupine, my curiosity of it is becoming stronger and stronger as I observe. I love this Night Safari and my family and I will be coming back really soon.
5/5
It's definitely worth taking children to visit. If you're mobile, I recommend walking around to experience the tranquility of the night and see the animals up close, just a board away. If you're not mobile, you can ride in a small truck.
5/5
It was dark, so I actually couldn't see the animals very well.

I was debating between Sentosa Aquarium and River Wonders, but River Wonders also has an aquarium on par with the Sentosa Aquarium. There was plenty to see, and everyone enjoyed the boat ride we took in the middle of the trip. Since the zoo is large, we chose to visit just one place, and it wasn't hot at all; I was very satisfied!

Traveling with young children, the biggest fear is either perfunctory or overly intrusive hotel service, but this hotel's experience was impeccable for the whole family. True quality is revealed in the details, with meticulous service embodying the highest level of hospitality. Having mentioned traveling with a young child, the room was fully padded, with all sharp edges neatly covered. The children's slippers were soft-soled, non-slip, and the perfect size for the child's feet, preventing them from slipping off. The children's meals were served with finely chopped ingredients, kept at a comfortable temperature, and without excessive seasoning. When the children ran around in the common areas, the staff didn't overreact by intervening; they simply quietly moved away any potentially dangerous items and kept a safe distance. This perfect balance of consideration demonstrates the highest level of gentleness and respect, treating the children without expecting special treatment. This relaxed approach significantly reduced the fatigue of traveling with a child.
Mandai Wildlife Reserve | Bird Paradise
Bird Paradise
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. Its crowning glory lies in eight massive walk-through aviaries, each a living masterpiece, from the lush African rainforests and South American wetlands to the tranquil rice paddies of Southeast Asia.
It is more than a sanctuary; it is an immersive, multi-sensory journey into a world of brilliant feathers and natural wonder.
