This is a fantastic zoo it is very large with a huge lake surrounding most of it. Most of the animals are not caged so you can see them from a distance or behind a glass wall which adds to the whole experience. The only problem is that Singapore is a very hot & humid country & after 10mins we... more

This is definitely the best zoo we've ever been 2. The open aspect is fantastic and there are only a few traditionally caged animals which i hate and is the reason why i don't normally like zoos. Thoroughly enjoyed the day. We purchased the ticket with tram ride, but we didn't use the tram car as we walked around so... more

First, DONT FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS on the brochure, to get off at Ang Mo Kio MRT, then take the bus. Go all the way to Woodlands NS9 or Marsiling NS8, get off there, and take a cab. easy and faster. We did the night safari the first day as per the brochure, and the bus wait and ride took almost... more

Singapore Zoo is an excellent place to take the kids. I took my family last month (Sept 2009). They thoroughly enjoyed the place. Giraffe, Zebras, Kangaroos, White Tigers were special attractions, apart from the usual suspects like Elephants, Lions, Hippos etc. Very well maintained Zoo. The tram ride is great. The Singapore Night Safari is next door. Animals are in... more

We really enjoyed it, we come from Perth Western Australian and our zoo is pretty good, but this is awesome. The fragile forest was the last thing we did and it was the best, but Kidzworld was great too. We have a 2.5 yr old and he loved all of it. We also went for an elephant ride which was... more

From reading the reviews I expected to be up close and personal with the animals but it was no better than say Taronga Zoo in Sydney or London Zoo. The big pain about Singapore Zoo in my opinion is getting there. What I dont understand is if it is such a big attraction in Singapore why they dont have a... more

This zoo is laid out fantastically, with all enclosures being open with plenty of space and environmentally sound for each animal. The Orangutans enclosures are amazing and seeing them up close and personal in the viewing and photo area is a great experiance. The baboon enclosure is also massive with a huge amount of baboons. Have been to this Zoo... more

Great zoo!

My family and I visited this zoo and had a very nice time. The zoo has all the normal animals usually included in a zoo, but in a free reign format for most of them. So it seems more like a safari where the everything is opened up to you to really see the animals. Of course, you aren't going... more

As expats living in Singapore we purchased a pass so we could visit the zoo anytime. It was well worth it as we went there a lot. My toddler daughter especially loved the elephant bath 'show', butterfly world and the Water Play area. The Water Play area is pretty big and has lots for the kids to play on with... more
