Singapore Zoo

Published - 25 October 2022, Tuesday

Located at Mandai Wildlife Reserve, visitors get to enjoy experiential learning journeys at the 26-hectare award-winning Singapore Zoo. Singapore Zoo's world-famous naturalistic exhibits offer many opportunities to experience the wonders of wildlife, with more than 4,200 animals of over 300 species, of which 34 percent are threatened.

Singapore Zoo is dedicated to the highest standards of animal care and conservation, with a team of passionate wildlife professionals that look after all aspects of caring for the living collection. The Zoo is famous for its world-leading free-ranging orangutan exhibit and dedicates special attention to threatened primates and threatened southeast Asian chelonians.

Active in national and regional conservation projects, Singapore Zoo is also one of the country’s designated centres for rescued wildlife.

The Zoo is managed by Mandai Wildlife Group and is accredited by two of the top international regional zoo associations—European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA), and Zoo and Aquarium Association of Australasia (ZAA). It is also a member of the Southeast Asian Zoo and Aquarium Association (SEAZA) and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA).

A day is needed to cover the full zoo without rushing from activity to activity. Try to catch all the shows, it has always been a delight to watch the animals. Find time for the feeding times and pet the animals. Take a stroll where Ah Meng sculpture is located, there is a herb garden nearby. Take the tram would be great for those who do not like walking too much (a lot of ground to cover) . Headover to the Night Safari when the Zoo closes at 6pm. River safari is a must visit too!

Singapore zoo is definitely one of the nicer zoos I have seen. The only downside is seeing the polar bear.

We LOVE zoos and this is the finest in the WORLD!!!!! It is laid out beautifully. You can get up so close and personal with great variety of animals. Be sure and get the feeding schedule and follow along with the staff.

The best zoo in the world. I highly recommend to go for the full package i.e. Zoo + River Safari + Night Safari + Bird Park.

Hands-down the best Zoo I have ever seen! Highly recommend the night safari, where you can walk through the zoo and night.
