    My advise is to walk the trails first, you can spend 2-3 hours then take the tram ride and/or visit the show.

    Super Crowded. Go there early around 6PM and make sure you take the Express pass else you will have to wait for 2-3 Hours in the long queue,

    Enjoy the sight, sounds and smells of nature as you walk through the trails. Animals who are usually asleep in zoos are awake and seem happy.

    Love the night time tram tour. You might even get to see a firefly! Explore the glow in the dark scorpions, sugar gliders and more on foot.

    You can disembark from the tram at a certain place and you can explore the trails. Then you can come back again to finish the ride.

    Suggested order: take the first tram ride, then see the fire show, then do all four walking trails and end with the Creatures of the Night show. This order gives you the best experience

    I think this is a must see in Singapore. Very nice atmosphere. Both tram ride and trail walks are amazing. The "Creatures of the Night" show was nothing special.

    Amazing experience.Definetly do the walking trails and feel the animals in their natural habitat. You can have a dinner beforehand, there are lots of options and the ambiance is really nice.

    Going to City(Orchard Road - Little India - Novena & ChinaTown - SG Flyer) at night? No worries! Look for SAEx booth (blue in color) to get your Ticket. It's just SGD$5(Adult) to your destination

    This was fun! I recommend the walking trail over the tram, because you can go at your own pace and get away from the crowd. Some animals are tram only though :(

    Be sure to explore the four walking trails as some of the animals can only be seen when you go through these trails.

    Tram ride was amazing! Pretty close up view of the animals, some came next to the moving trams. Crews were awesome, helpful and passionate. Only downside, inconsiderate rowdy visitors.

    Kids will love the Night Safari, the first nocturnal zoo in the world. Take a tram inside for the Himalayan Foothills and don't miss the Leopard Trail! Bring a tripod—flash photography isn’t allowed.

    The daytime zoo is much better value (it's cheaper and there's more to see), but the night safari is definitely unique.

    Queue for Tram was 45 minutes at 7:50 on a Monday night, queue was mostly gone by 9:15. Tram is well worth doing as you see far more of the animals roaming free (not behind glass)

    Maybe we got lucky, but saw loads of animals & had a great time. Take the Mandai shuttle bus from Khatib MRT - 15mins to the zoo & costs SG$1.

    Amazing experience but avoid 7.15 because it is crazy crowded, try 9.15 or 10.15 if you can

    If you're arriving when it opens, skip the tram queues and take a walk around the trails, then take a tram later when the queues have shortened.

    Please show the animals and other visitors respect and encourage your children to be discrete when they become fascinated. It's a great place for it and help everyone to become it too.

    Proceed with the walking trails first, then ride the tram. The queue is way shorter that way. Queue for trams are really long from opening hours till 8pm

    Awesome experience. Walk the different trails after the entire tour. The leopard trail is the best one for me.

    If you arrived early, don't hang up in the souvenir shop or anywhere. Go straight to the Night Safari. The queue to just enter can take hours!

    since the trail / tram ride is through the animals natural habitat, do wear appropriate clothings to prevent mosquito bites...ouchhh

    So very awesome experience. Can't believe I saw a grey wolf, hyena and fishing cat on stage and a reticulated python amongst the spectators of the Animal Show.

    Last private bus to the city leaves at 11:30pm for S$4. Advise to buy ticket early as it sells out. If you miss it, take the 927 to the MRT station and transfer to the nitebus NR3 (weekends only).

    Despite taking photos with flash is not allowed, many visitors sadly still use them. Or bring flashlights and point them onto the animals' eyes. It stresses out the animals.

    Arrive after 9.30 after most of the screaming kids are gone. No queues for the tram and lots more animals emerge from the darkness. fishing cats are badass!

    A camera with ISO going north of 6400 is probably the only way you can take home pictures. Flashes are forbidden and it is seriously dark.
