We did the 5 parks in 5 days. The price was reasonable (though I didn't do much research to find a better deal). The parks were AMAZING. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful experience at the Singapore Zoo, especially as a family traveling with a baby. The zoo is extremely baby-friendly, with stroller-friendly paths, nursing rooms, and many thoughtful facilities for parents. The environment is clean, well maintained, and comfortable, with no strong animal odors, which made our visit very pleasant. The tram service connects different zones, making it easy to get around without feeling tired. There is also a children’s playground where kids can release energy and fully enjoy themselves. Food options are reasonably priced and surprisingly tasty. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable visit, and we would happily return again in the future. It is an ideal destination for families with young children visiting Singapore again.

The bird paradise was amazing. Unfortunately it was raining by the time we got to the zoo so many of the animals were subdued but still well worth the money.

The customer support was incredibly helpful. But of course of those of you wondering if this is value for money, it absolutely is.

The site is large and well organized. There is a free tram to take you from one area to another, but you can also walk. The animals are well treated and are not kept in small, cramped cages with concrete floors, as is often the case. It is clear that the animals are the priority. It was a wonderful day and good value for money.

Top things to do in Singapore

Visit Asia’s top wildlife haven with Singapore Zoo Tickets 

Singapore Zoo offers an immersive rainforest experience in the heart of Mandai Wildlife Reserve, where you can encounter over 4,200 animals from more than 300 species. Explore themed zones like Wild Africa, Fragile Forest, and Primate Kingdom, all designed in open naturalistic habitats.

Watch orangutans swing overhead and lions roam across open plains separated only by moats, not cages. Feed giraffes by hand, watch elephants bathe, and attend keeper talks that reveal animal behaviors and conservation efforts. The tram covers the 28-hectare park efficiently, while multiple dining options and air-conditioned rest areas ensure comfort throughout your visit.

A diverse wildlife collection in an open habitat

Animals live in spacious enclosures separated by moats, vegetation, and glass, creating an immersive “in the wild” feel. Explore themed zones like Wild Africa with white rhinos, cheetahs, and meerkats; Southeast Asia with tapirs, sun bears, and proboscis monkeys; and the Primate Kingdom with over 40 species, including endangered orangutans. Spot manatees and tropical fish in the Fragile Forest dome, and encounter king cobras, Galápagos tortoises, and Komodo dragons in the climate-controlled Reptile Garden.

Interactive wildlife encounter

The zoo brings you remarkably close to the wild. For a small fee, hand-feed giraffes, elephants, or white rhinos during scheduled sessions. Don’t miss the signature Breakfast in the Wild—a buffet experience where you dine beside orangutans and other incredible animals. Daily shows like ‘Splash Safari’ & ‘Rainforest Fights Back’ showcase natural animal behaviors up close.

Family-friendly attraction

Singapore Zoo is built for full-day family fun. Shaded paths, pram-friendly routes, and hop-on/hop-off tram rides make it easy to explore. There are plenty of rest stops and dining spots to recharge, while KidzWorld keeps little ones entertained with pony rides and a splash zone.

Focus on conservation & education

Singapore Zoo isn’t just about cute animals; it’s a powerhouse of conservation. From one of the world’s top orangutan breeding programs to reintroducing hornbills into the wild, their efforts go way beyond the enclosures. Through keeper talks, school tours, and clever signboards, the zoo turns every visit into a lesson in wildlife protection.

Unique add-on adventures

Singapore Zoo offers an experience that goes beyond the regular visit. The VIP Buggy Tour takes you on a small-group ride with a guide to back-of-house areas, often including animal feeding or a stop at the zoo’s veterinary centre. The Keeper for a Day program lets you shadow real zookeepers, helping with food preparation and animal care. With the Backstage Pass: Reptiles, you’ll enter off-display zones and even handle certain reptiles under expert supervision.
