What a lovely Zoo. One of the best in the world. Super clean with lots of animals to offer from Hippos to Tigers. Children or adults all will like the place. A person visiting Singapore should not miss the place.
Singapore zoo has a wide range of animals. You can buy a combo ticket and visit Singapore zoo, river safari. Night safari and jurong bird park with that same ticket. Pandas are the main attraction.
There are a few Lumina Parks around the world and the Rainforest Lumina is supposed to be the first in South East Asia located within the Singapore Zoo.
As the night falls, the entrance to Lumina opens and accepts guests into it s mists and magical light show.
Jungle inspired sounds and music played in the background and played a big part in immersing us into the experience, wrapped about in mists and the hidden light show plus animated graphics, the Lumina engages us effortlessly and transported us into it s magical world as the path guides us through the various stations- many of which are interactive and suitable for a wide age group.
I was taking pictures from the smartphone and it doesn t do the ambience and experience any justice; the animated graphics for instance couldn t be captured well; then again, it could also be the person holding the phone Mia was using her camera and her pictures and videos turned out much much better. Either way, interested folks should go soak in the experience.
Tickets should be booked in advance. And as it takes about 1 - 1.5 hours to complete the experience, guests should wear comfortable shoes and thin comfortable clothing to stay cool in the humid environments.
This undoubtedly the best zoo I've been to. The idea of not caging the animals but to provide them with their natural habitat is so satisfying to see. Be prepared to walk walk and walk. Keep yourself hydrated.
The mist amazing Zoo I have ever been to the animals are free to roam in amazing enclosure it s a great day make sure you check out the feeding times and buy the tram tickets $4 so you don t have to walk so far. Well designed and a very well thought out Zoo.
Very exciting zoo where the animals get so close that you would be able to touch them. My kids were thrilled to be able to pet them. And make sure to check the feeding time because the little ones would surely want to participate.
The best zoo I have ever visited. There are a lot of animals within well maintained enclosures all around the premise as well as open "roaming" areas that animals are allowed to wander through out or climb around in. Such a beautiful place! I have never been so close to the beautiful creatures and I had a wonderful experience. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and you can see how passionate they are about their animals as well.
Had to good time in zoo..
Well maintained
The animals are so well kept. Unlike other zoos, the animals are kept in a very comfortable and friendly environment.
Always a good day out, get there nice and early to beat the crowds though!
Singapore Zoo is fun, lot of information about different animals. They have schedules for feeding animals, tram rides. you can rent baby strollers, disabled bikes. Restrooms at entrance has good design. Animals look happy in general. seal splash show is great. Definitely will come back. Buy 4 parks pass if you want to save money. staff is nice. They have butterfly enclosures. free range peacock roaming around. Food is expensive. shopping is expensive. prices are way too high than what it s worth.

This is the place where animal safari meets changi prison. A large assortment of animals in their artificial holding places blessed with inescapable cages and fences, it's a safe place for kids to enjoy the view of bored, sleepy critters with very little recreation and plenty of opportunities for procreation. Animals here are well fed, just like most of the locals are, and it's time for you to come down here, pay the entrance fee, and enjoy the tropical climate and the beautiful smell of nature and manure. What more can a man asks for?
26 hectare wildlife park, home to over 300 species of animals, a fantastic destination for family outings
The zoo is awesome but very busy almost all the time. Bring comfy walking shoes and cash money since not all places take credit card. Also, bring your water bottles to refill since water at the park can cost upwards of $5 a bottle.
It's a lot of fun and there's so much to see it's silly. Enjoy!
What an amazing place. They have a huge variety of animals. Very well organised. The tram trip helps completing the visit in a short time, though for a nice view, it is recommended that you walk around. The animal enclosures could have been bigger.
I am fascinated by the world standard authentic landscape design of the Singapore zoo that allows the zoo exhibits to roam freely it's most next to the best natural environment. the other thing i enjoyed is the availability of free cool drinking water made available. Some of the rare exhibits are a delightful watch and great time to spend an educational day for my family.
Kids-friendly, very walkable. One of the best zoos I ve been to. A bit too crowded during weekends.
I haven't been to any other zoo which is so well kept and child friendly.. Fully equipped with baby strollers and wagons... Enclosures are so well built you will never miss viewing an animal... River safari with amazon river quest, zoo and night safari are must do... Can be done in a day but reach early by 9am... Later queue can be absurdly long in season time
It very lovely to see animal again during pandemic time with social distancing I feel great exciting hope to see new place upgrade jbp
Singapore zoo is the best zoo in Asia now. The zoo make you feel very close to animals and feel very safe too. Actually you can go to river safari at the same day but it a bit rushing. I hear the local Singapore said in next few year they will move the Jurong bird park to next to Singapore zoo too. So the zoo will bigger. I wonder how is new park like. My son enjoy the zoo so much. The food also many choices. But we wait very long to find Taxi when we come back during the rain... still don't have direct MRT to the zoo yet but the have bus link to nearest MRT line. Bring your own bottle you can fill it very corner. Enjoy ....
Great family outing, Great choice of food, and this is indeed the best zoo with new attractions coming soon
Amazing wildlife park! You will need an entire day to see every exhibit inside the park.
You should also try to plan your route so you can catch as many animal feeding sessions and animal shows as you can!
During COVID 19 Period. Need booking the time slots. Very good place to visit.
Kids and adults will definitely learn alot from their visit here. Our highlight was, no doubt, the pandas:)
Singapore Zoo is really a great place to visit. Lots of animals and very organized and clean. Timings are around 8:30-6pm.
The zoo area to cover can take even 6hrs if you are an animal lover. Lots to walk so carry a cap, Sunscreen and water. There are many shows which have certain timings do check them in advance and be there half an hr before to get decent seating. (bird, elephant show many others)
The night safari is worth the wait. Can see animals well and with good distance, there is a mini train which you take and that stops at many places in the zoo and then you can visit the animals in that area.
The seal show really amazed with how smart it is. Too bad the polar bear passed away. The malaysian bat flying around with its six feet wingspan was also a hihlight. They are like all tame animals and not afraid of humans. I was not afraid of monkeys falling down to grab food away like i am at other places. It has the feel of a wild animal park which is really an oxymoron. There are four tram stops but it doesnt stop by the entrance. Walking around in one afternoon only clocked me 4 miles and with so many stops, it really is doable without the tram. The ah meng restaurant is also reasonably priced unlike many overpriced zoos elsewhere. There are also three other exhibits where you pay separate entrance fees for but the zoo was all i could handle in half a day. I might consider returning for the night and river safari on another day.
Great value for money, but make sure you come in the morning to make the most of it! And check beforehand which areas are open.
One of the best I have seen...animals are too close to give real forest expierience, shows are awesome..big thumbs up
The Zoo is organised, clean and very tourist friendly. The queue for the ticket can be quite long, better get your ticket in advance to avoid waiting hours in the queue.
If I couldn t visit this zoo I would have wrong thought about it. No one can believe if he or she doesn t visit Singapore zoo that how a zoo could be so organised and so clean. My son so impressed when we just entered and as times goes on we became so surprised.
Probably the best zoos in the world !!! Well maintained , you can get up close with animals , lots of educational shows about animals
, well demarcated zones and paths , loads to see . You need a full day to see the entire zoo . A must visit !!
Amazing place to come with your finance. We enjoyed a lot
Always great. Reptopia was amazing! Bring an umbrella in case it rains. Not a lot of covered walking paths.
I have visited the night zoo and it was one of the best experiences of my life!!! Don't forget to spray yourself dutifully with mosquito repellent and then just enjoy the ride, walk and the show. Arrive early to give yourself enough time to enjoy everything!
Absolutely Brilliant. !!! This Zoo is incredibly well thought out, Love it !!! Can t wait to visit again
A nice place for family whereby the kids can learn many facts about animals and watch animal shows
Great place. Although the number of animals are few, it is very well maintained. For good discounts, order a combo on their website with zoo and the bird park.
Best zoo with a kind of open concept where in animals are not kept in small enclosures like other Zoos. Worth visiting place.
Deserves to be among top 3 in world...has animals from every corner of the world, good enclosures , nice shows, best I though was Splash...good play areas for kids, u can easily spend whole day
Nice day out has a small water park for children take change of clothes nice for them to run around and cool down in
Good and very properly managed. Worth to see orangutans and other animals roaming freely
No wonder it is rated as one of the best zoos in the world.
Definitely a great place to see animals of different species! The experience could be improved if there were more corridors that are covered with roofs to overcome rainy days.
A well maintained and an amazing place for families to spend time. Don't miss the splash safari show.
A beautiful place after renovations. It's such a relaxing place to destress with the animals and nature around. A joy to see the animals well taken care of and are happy.
Enjoyable and relaxing stroll at the zoo,a great day where most of the animals are out from their dens for us to admire their cuteness and beauty.
Excellent zoo with a nice variety of animals. Easy pathways, trams for those who can't walk to much. Must animals in natural settings and generally easily seen. Very busy when we were there early October.
it's not a zoo it's a jungle you don't feel like you are in a zoo cause you're not seeing the cages and other stuff the organization of the zoo is amazing sector by sector with your map you'll see almost every species of animal that exists on earth they brought them with there environment and put them in this zoo there's the main entrance with counter to get tickets and it's about 33 SD to enter you'll have 4 transportation stops that can take you to every part of the zoo I recommend that you don't get into any one and only to walk and to go and visit every corner of it it decently worth visiting also you can take the zoo bus to get there it comes every 20 minutes from Alkhateb station and only coast you about 1 Singaporean Dolar for a one way trip
Superb zoo. The habitats are large and natural. The variety of animals is superb. Food and facilities are top notch. Entry fee is appropriate. One of the best I have ever visited.
One of the best zoos I've seen. Everything is done very beautifully and smartly. However, it leaves a double opinion because of the enclosures with orangutans, very small for their size. You look at their faces (I can t say a muzzle), and it seems that they look at you with quite reasonable eyes. Definitely recommended to visit.
Day in Singapore Zoo, It was an wonderful experience in Zoo, where we could see few new animal which we had never seen before like Kangaroo and polar bear. the zoo is so well and clean maintained, my kid enjoyed a lot here. We were unable to see the Shows as we reached here by 12.00, it is recommended to be here by 10.00 so that you can watch all the Shows.
This is a very well maintained zoo. Even the animals look posh and clean. Peaceful and easygoing as well. By far the best day out with the family was here.
Good place to bring young kids. The place is clean and well maintained .The zoo gives a good visitor experience as the animals are given a lot of space and not packed in cages. Tram is good for family with young kids and elderly .

A great park! Animals don't feel bad, they are wild and free
Went with a couple of friends. Reached there around 11a.m and left at about 5pm. There are more than enough places to visit, even after walking non-stop throughout the day, there were still exhibits that we had not managed to cover. You can feed the goats at the play area at a certain timing for 5 bucks if I remember it correctly. If you are planning to go, please do bring sunscreen, copies amounts of mosquito repellent, an umbrella (in the event of a downpour) and if you don't want to spend an exorbitant amount on food and drinks there, bring your own. The mark up on snacks there seems to be something in the ballpark of 10000%, ok maybe I exaggerated, but you get my point. Overall, money well spent, the zoo exhibits feels less like a enclosed wire meshed cage and more like an open living space, I wouldn't go so far as to say they have great environments, but they definitely don't feel as inhibited or cooped up as compared to some other places I have visited. I liked it. Would recommend.
Fun place to be. It's a complete day's activity. River safari, night safari have separate routes.
Make sure that you don't miss any show or be around during feeding times of animals, that way you would be able to get closer to animals.
It's more convenient to pre book your ticket with a tram ride instead paying for the tram in the park.
Great place to spend a day with family and little ones. Plan your trip early and catch the feeding times. Also do visit river safari to catch the giant panda.
During covid-19 you need go pre book your time slot online. Animal feeding also required online booking in addition to the fees and queue. Overall visit during covid-19 is more pleasant than usual maybe due to the limited guests admitted. Do also take note pram service is suspended till further notice.

Neat and clean, well organised zoo.primates section is good but carnivores section do not have good stock. Else nice
Here is nice place to spend a time with family. Staff is so kindness. What is great point is close to animals and great organized atmosphere. If you want to take a photo with Orangutans during breakfast, I recommend to go there around 8:30 or booking table. Otherwise your seat is far from Orangutans.
Lovely place, with amazing variety of animals, also well groomed and well fed. The facility is large enough for the well being of the animals. Visitor also had an assortment form of activities, you can watch an animal show, to taking a tour with the safari tram. The access to the instance is considerably easy, you can take the bus from the town with the guidance of google maps' direction. Would return again someday.
There's a lot of walking. you can rent powered buddies.
Seems like I see a lot more trees and vegetation and maybe roads than animals.
I remember the zoo to be a lot more lively.
Was honestly one of the best zoo s I have ever been to. Super clean, with incredible animals. The keeps also clearly care about and respect the animals. If you have the time, I would highly recommend also checking out the night safari at the zoo. It was very cool to see nocturnal animals that you very rarely see.
One of the best in the world, it can takes a day to cover all the beautiful animals, there is the wonderful River Safari too. And you can stay till evening for the night safari
Singapore Zoo is a must visit place in Singapore. Well maintained and organized. You can see some rare animals like pandas there. Animal feeding sessions and various shows available. You will get a map of zoo when you entering and show times are printed on that. Make sure to go on Amazon quest boat ride and its an amazing experience.
This place is very nice and beautiful. My experience tells me in Singapore you can't get easier free drink water but there I get and nice rest room. I found there cleanliness and good environment. Transport arrangements also very well . In future I will visit there with my parents.
Lots of animals to see! Polar bears and white Tigers! Need to spend 1 whole day here to properly see the animals and enjoy
The 'Open Zoo' is still one of the best attractions in SG!
Best Zoo I have ever been too! Different sections such as River Cruise, Jurong Bird Park and Singapore Zoo. Unfortunately I did not have time to go to the bird park. This is an all day event. I explored the river and zoo. Enclosures are very good, beautiful zoo in general. Plenty of bathroom facilities. Easy to navigate the zoo. Love the rainforest, open feel of the Zoo. Animal conditions/homes - from a visitors view - best I ve seen. Well done Singapore. I only hope other countries take note of this zoo. Buses, taxis, easy to get to and from. Plenty of food options. Would love to come back. New areas under construction too.
Lots of animals. Good facilities. Clean toilet, water dispenser and food court. Good for family with elderly and young.
While I had only 20hours layover in Singapore I chose to see their ZOO first and I do not regret it at all. What a fun place. I went there in early morning just couple of minutes after opening and even if some of animal's coops were in process of cleaning (only white tiger and reptiles) I managed to see everything and I arrived during feeding time so I my experience was even better. If you arrive in early hours or you're staying in Singapore for couple of days, definitely go to the Zoo as soon in the morning as possible.
Clean, easy to navigate, lots of water stations and the animals have good habitats and seem to be well looked after. Family loved it.
Loads of animals to see. Singapore zoo keeps adding on the list of animals to pass on the knowledge. Definitely a page to visit
Best zoo!
Well organized, wide variety of animals, animals look and feel happy. Excellent place to spend an afternoon. A good workout too!
Pretty awesome place to visit. Family friendly place. Fun shows and feeding times
This is the best zoo in the whole wild world why ?let me tell you
This is the cleanest zoo
The animals here looks happy
They have all the animals we love
The animals are not locked in huge case or tied
The people working here love them and happy
Air-conditioning areas and well management.
Will come again.
Quite an amazing experience. Well maintained and very informative.
I have been living in Singapore for more than 17 years now until now. Singapore Zoo never fails to amazed me. The transformation for the last 17 years was truly amazing. If you have not been yet to a zoo where animals are not caged but kept a safe distance away from you. Then definitely this place is for you..
Its fun exciting. The animals are healthy. Looks like they are happy especially the orang utan and the sun bear. Reallu enjoying their time under the sun.
Nice and comfy Zoo. Nice and entertaining sea lion show. I was found out a big lizard crawling under my table. Everything is great ! But this place lack of smoking area... It would be perfect if there's 1 or 2 inside the Zoo
A very crowded place. Glad that staff there are efficient. Can book the zoo and tram tickets in advance to avoid queuing for ages under hot weather.
This zoo is incredibly beautiful! You can take a very close look onto the numerous animals without many fences. There are also numerous cool animal shows, such as the 'Elephants of Asia'.
The tram is also very comfortable to take, although sometimes very full with long lines (mostly at the entrance and after shows).
Well maintained and clean. Animals are treated well. Must visit point though in one far corner of the city. Liked it.
RIP INUKA
PROS: Super cool experience, most of the animals are not in cages so it's very authentic, zoo staff was super friendly
CONS: *Make sure you check the weather when you go. Since there are no enclosures, the animals won't be out. Even if it doesn't rain, Singapore is very humid and hot, so bring water bottles, fans and etc.
OVERALL: 10/10 (I'm a zoo enthusiast)
Up close experience with animals. Be sure to buy tram pass to enjoy all animal sites. Must do in Singapore.
