Good family excursion. Comes with a leisurely river cruise which you don't have to go. The extra 5 bucks for unlimited Amazon quest rides is worth it even if you just see the jaguar.
Woooow! Great boat ride and great shelters for all species of fish . Especially loved the manatees ! There are 10 of them in amazing water tank. Also loved the panda shelter.
I think this place is underrated. It's s bit different. Has some unique animals. It's also well designed and not too hot for young kids.
Scenic views with all covered walkways, this zoo is a good option for visitors who want to shun the sun. Periodic pit stops in the A/C also provide the much welcome respite from the heat outside.
The Amazon River Quest ($5 per rider) is about 15mins casual walk from the main entrance. The “river ” ride takes 10mins to complete. U get to see tapirs, jaguars & monkeys
Starbucks. The coffee chain runs 2 cafes at the zoo : one here at River Wonders (next to entrance), & the other at Bird Paradise (with a playground ). No zoo admission fee required
Just been opened few days, half of attractions still not yet opened, including the boat ride . Most interesting is the panda attraction . At 11am they have animal show with birds and cute hedgehog .
Lots to see, so be prepared to walk. Boat ride and river quest were rather short . If not for free admission tix , not sure if it is worth going, or even a repeat visit. Do go for the Amazon River tho!
Fave: manatee , sea otters, monkey, panda ; steamed bao , iced Milo in souvenir cup ; skip: Amazon river ride
Amazing place! Be sure to purchase your tickets online and to avail the multipark ticket for bigger discounts .
Remember to book slots for the Amazon River Quest Ride at the visitor service counter. Book before noon during peak days to prevent disappointment. Currently FOC for each admission tix bought! :)
The river safari is almost fully covered and makes a great day trip on a hot and sunny or rainy day (both of which would make the zoo difficult).
Good, interesting place. 👍 Good free boat ride . I like Amazon Ride too. I think it is very good for children and adults!
Basically another mini zoo with some river ecosystem exhibits . The two highlights are the manatee and panda exhibits . The "cruise " is 15 minutes and very lame unless you've never been on a boat.
Probably the best of the 4 parks . Very educational and varied. The Manatees aquarium is a big plus.
boat ride was short and lacked excitement. boat reservation is out fast so its best if you come here in the morning and spend the afternoon at the Singapore zoo .

We arrived at 4 pm, bought the boat ride tickets right there. Pandas is the reason we entered. Rather interesting. 1 hour is enough for visiting.
Come here mainly for the pandas . The other exhibits are just as good but I feel the main day zoo is still a better attraction .
River on-stream - Asia’s first river-themed wildlife park has been recently opened its doors to the public. Read more
Good mix of fresh water creatures, pandas and deep sea creatures . Pity that the Amazon river cruise was suspended due to technical issues.
Different themed 'rivers ' with many interesting animals..some of which U can touch!
Some fantastic aquariums & the pandas of course but overall disappointing & no value for money with 2 boring boat rides (1 @ extra fee).
Don't miss giant pandas , Kai Kai & Jia Jia who can be seen playing in their natural habitat at Singapore's River Safari .
Great place to visit with the kids beautiful animals and beautiful nature!
I went there just to see one animal. PANDA . Its so cute and you won't be bored even if you stare him for an hour.
Pandas are the highlight. The lines for entry tickets can get long so purchase them online. You the don't have to queue.
So many information about the different rivers of the world and how to preserve them as well as the wildlife .
Pandas are rare enough to be worth the visit. Also works when raining, place is 100% covered!
Remember to get the boat ride tickets at the grand reception there and not be caught without it as there isn't a counter at the actual boat berth
Nice experience but can't take boat ride to see Amazon river ... Tickets sold out very fast. To walk around the park takes around 2 hours
Marine life varies
Last boat ride is 430pm! Reserve early and make sure you don't miss the ride!
Crowded crowded crowded . And no space for people to take the river boat ride even when people arrive at 11am. For real? That's almost half of the entire place missed out.
Beautiful place, come at the opening to avoid too many people
If you are a nature, safari and zoo lover you will come.
Heaps of fish and the red pandas are very cute !
Arrive early if you want to go to the boat!
New zoo in Singapore with cute furry pandas , Kai Kai and Jia Jia .
We cleared the place in about 3 hours. Highlight for me was probably the dugongs, not the pandas . Food and drink are expensive , and not a single water cooler in sight!
Second part of Singapore Zoo . Lots of animals including pandas !
The place is still enjoyable even if it is raining. Most walkways are sheltered
A better alternative to the zoo if you don't like getting sticky and sweaty.
You can see panda and sneak peak to the polar bear exhibition
Boat ride is only 15-20 minutes long. Too fast to really watch the animals along the way.
Dun bother coming after 11am. No boat ride = half of attraction gone. And u can finish the attraction in 2 hrs
Catch the boat ride as early as 10am!
Kai Kai and Jia Jia are so worth the travel!
You need to be 1.06m to go on the Amazon River Quest boat ride
Go during week and term time. Empty and no time restrictions for staying in the Panda enclosure .
Getting a glimpse of the pandas and refreshing at the same time. Come early because it can get very crowded - Yoram Cisinski
The Beef Ramen is nice. Tender Meat w generous portion of Ramen - Miico
Great attraction to discover more Amazon related animals. One can retake the ride repeatedly paying only once, which is quite fun for kids and great for parents. - Yoram Cisinski
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. - K
Took the guided tour and got to feed the elephants including a baby! Such an incredible experience, a Singapore must - Maddie Coleman
Very cool place! Went on a weekday morning so there weren’t many people around. Enjoyed the huge aviaries and letting the birds get close to me. Many restaurants and cafes and air conditioned spaces - Elise ❥
