    Amazing zoo enclosure with large variety of animals from all parts of the world spread across a vast area that makes it feel like you are exploring the actual natural habitat.

    A truly beautiful and well-maintained zoo! The lovely white tigers, polar bear and the baboon feeding time is worth the watch! Will definitely come back again.. 👍👍👍

    Worth every penny. Animals are practically roaming free, the experience is very immersive. Check out feeding times in advance and plan ahead, it is the best opportunity to see some animals real close

    The best zoo I've ever seen. There are wide variety of animals on earth. I love Polar Bears, Giant Turtles, Orang Utan and many other lovely animals. :) The price is quite expensive though. 28$.

    Great waterplay area at the kids park. Otherwise just enjoy the animals in their habitats. The orangutans got the best of them. Remember to book feeding sessions online at least a week in advance.

    Truly world-class! And you need at least a full day to see all the animals! And my personal favorite are the elegant White Tigers! The jewels of the zoo! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    Perfect for family + educating kids. Take note of the animal show timings so that you do not miss them. Highly recommend buying tickets online to skip the queue and bring your own food and drinks.

    Great experience! I recommend to go watch the animals at their feeding time - you'd be able to see them in action as the rest of the day they just sleep/loll around

    Second best zoo in the world. The 1st? Doesn't exist yet! I will design it:) thanks to its climate, the surrounding and the flora is at its best. The only Night Time Experience is in this zoo.

    Book tickets online to save 30%. Bring the mosquito repellant and if it gets too hot, make your way to Frozen Tundra, the Polar Bear section to cool off and see the Polar Bear.

    One of the best zoos in the world. Get an Uber from the city and come in early in the morning to see the feeding and practising of elephants for the show.

    ++ Some animals are really close to visitors, no big fences, fixed feeding time, free show with some animals. -- I thought it would be bigger. 2-3 hours enogh to see everything in zoo by walk.
  • Екатерина Р.
    Fragile Forest is the best! Funny lemurs jumping around you (you can even touch them!) bats hanging at an arm's length, birds flying over your head, lovely shy mouse deers and many others.

    The best zoo in the world? Could be 😀. Not too big, entertaining, animals are well kept and given freedom to roam. Water park in Kids Zone is a hit!

    The shows are sequential. So plan your routes and you will be watching shows of different animals in a stretch. Not to be missed - feeding time of Polar Bears!

    Convert admission ticket to Friend of Wildlife annual pass. Have your physical copy of online/onsite ticket(s) ready. Enquire abt T&Cs. Conversion must be processed on the same day of park admission

    This is easily the best zoo I've ever visited - so much space for the animals, the space is verdant and there are so many animals! Great day out.

    Talk about an experience. The Singapore zoo is an open air concept where most animals are not caged. The white tiger is a must - Ansel Diama

    Everything is good, breakfast with the orangutans is a must. Take your time to walk around and enjoy. Taxi to and from town is reasonably priced.

    Amazing zoo - definitely worth the trip! Not your ordinary zoo. Make sure to check out the orangutans! There's a lot of animal feeding opportunities as well!

    Experience the wild—including the largest collection of orangutans in the world — at the Singapore Zoo. You can walk the grounds day or night, but we suggest opting for the night safari tram ride.

    All the exotic animals live in 100% genuine ecosystems. The Ah Meng Restaurant is the only place in the world where you can have breakfast with an entire family of orangutans. - Green Guide Editor

    Come early and check the website (or the map, when you're there) for the feeding times so you can interact with the animals. Also, there are direct SAEX buses to/from the city at $5 a pop.

    Definitely come early (like 8am) and on a weekday outside of school holidays. Visit the River Safari first and you may just be alone with the Pandas feeding like I was!

    This attraction is a world-class Singapore treasure. Kids will love the Kidzranger Tour and Elephant shows. Also do the Jungle Breakfast with Wildlife, where you could dine with orangutans!

    Quite a few free range animals enjoying their natural habitat. Check the timetable in advance if you want to be on time for the shows. The zoo is not that big->no need for a tram unless it's very hot.
