Dean ZappyMarch 19, 2016My advise is to walk the trails first, you can spend 2-3 hours then take the tram ride and/or visit the show.
Yassine JaouadiAugust 25, 2018The exp is a must to do in Sing!! We were Very close to the wild life in a safely condition.Despite the queue, most probably cause of Saturday night, the experience was amazing and the queue was worth

Sanjay KamathSeptember 8, 2015Super Crowded. Go there early around 6PM and make sure you take the Express pass else you will have to wait for 2-3 Hours in the long queue,
Inkantadora InkDecember 29, 2015Enjoy the sight, sounds and smells of nature as you walk through the trails. Animals who are usually asleep in zoos are awake and seem happy.
- Carrie WJune 5, 2018It is an amazing experience. Highly recommend doing both tram ride and walking trails. Will definitely come back.
Elise ❥December 10, 2015Love the night time tram tour. You might even get to see a firefly! Explore the glow in the dark scorpions, sugar gliders and more on foot.- Shar PatigasJune 8, 2015You can disembark from the tram at a certain place and you can explore the trails. Then you can come back again to finish the ride.
Rob ENovember 10, 2014Suggested order: take the first tram ride, then see the fire show, then do all four walking trails and end with the Creatures of the Night show. This order gives you the best experience
Ali SamiMarch 23, 2018I think this is a must see in Singapore. Very nice atmosphere. Both tram ride and trail walks are amazing. The "Creatures of the Night" show was nothing special.
Duygu A.GMay 13, 2013Amazing experience.Definetly do the walking trails and feel the animals in their natural habitat. You can have a dinner beforehand, there are lots of options and the ambiance is really nice.
NmNovember 6, 2014I'm not a big fan of zoos, but We enjoyed every single minutes we spent here. New remarkable experience for everyone.
Nathaniel JunjieSeptember 24, 2013Going to City(Orchard Road - Little India - Novena & ChinaTown - SG Flyer) at night? No worries! Look for SAEx booth (blue in color) to get your Ticket. It's just SGD$5(Adult) to your destination
Dolores LoudermilkFebruary 20, 2015This was fun! I recommend the walking trail over the tram, because you can go at your own pace and get away from the crowd. Some animals are tram only though :(- Shar PatigasJune 8, 2015Be sure to explore the four walking trails as some of the animals can only be seen when you go through these trails.
Colleen Ch'ngMay 4, 2013Tram ride was amazing! Pretty close up view of the animals, some came next to the moving trams. Crews were awesome, helpful and passionate. Only downside, inconsiderate rowdy visitors.
DHR.comSeptember 19, 2011Kids will love the Night Safari, the first nocturnal zoo in the world. Take a tram inside for the Himalayan Foothills and don't miss the Leopard Trail! Bring a tripod—flash photography isn’t allowed.
Jigar ChampaneriaJanuary 14, 2016The daytime zoo is much better value (it's cheaper and there's more to see), but the night safari is definitely unique.- Shar PatigasJune 8, 2015The tram ride is nice. You get to see the animals and also learn about them.
Angie HwangJune 9, 2013go there right before dusk for a better view of the animals! 😊 otherwise be prepare to bring a camera that has an iso 6400+ to bring amazing pictures home!
Imran GhoryFebruary 18, 2019Queue for Tram was 45 minutes at 7:50 on a Monday night, queue was mostly gone by 9:15. Tram is well worth doing as you see far more of the animals roaming free (not behind glass)
Jonathan SmithSeptember 4, 2023Great night time experience to see the animals. Be ready for a lot of kids.
- Toria FoxFebruary 18, 2019Maybe we got lucky, but saw loads of animals & had a great time. Take the Mandai shuttle bus from Khatib MRT - 15mins to the zoo & costs SG$1.
JaneMay 2, 2015If you're arriving when it opens, skip the tram queues and take a walk around the trails, then take a tram later when the queues have shortened.
Mehmet BayburtSeptember 18, 2016Amazing experience but avoid 7.15 because it is crazy crowded, try 9.15 or 10.15 if you can
Alexander ForsénOctober 22, 2012Please show the animals and other visitors respect and encourage your children to be discrete when they become fascinated. It's a great place for it and help everyone to become it too.
electrobabeDecember 27, 2015nice, but very crowded. so maybe do the tour by foot first and later the ride!
Xynthia 🐯May 26, 2014Proceed with the walking trails first, then ride the tram. The queue is way shorter that way. Queue for trams are really long from opening hours till 8pm
Ralphyn OcumaOctober 16, 2014Awesome experience. Walk the different trails after the entire tour. The leopard trail is the best one for me.
Marco 鳄梨December 29, 2014Nice experience in the evening, try to go there when its not raining, you will see more of the animals
Hadi Al LawatiAugust 20, 2014To enjoy it try to be there by 6 o'clock so you can have the tour, walk around & enjoy the shows as well
SamMay 20, 2015Great night out. Food from food court was surprisingly good too. Well worth the trip out.
Anna LitvinukMay 2, 2014If you arrived early, don't hang up in the souvenir shop or anywhere. Go straight to the Night Safari. The queue to just enter can take hours!
Sunita PerumalSeptember 21, 2014since the trail / tram ride is through the animals natural habitat, do wear appropriate clothings to prevent mosquito bites...ouchhh- Hadi Al LawatiAugust 19, 2014Night zoo, animals, nice experience & recommend it if you visiting Singapore for first time
- Colleen Ch'ngMay 4, 2013So very awesome experience. Can't believe I saw a grey wolf, hyena and fishing cat on stage and a reticulated python amongst the spectators of the Animal Show.
Patrick MooneySeptember 18, 2010Last private bus to the city leaves at 11:30pm for S$4. Advise to buy ticket early as it sells out. If you miss it, take the 927 to the MRT station and transfer to the nitebus NR3 (weekends only).
Kelvin AngSeptember 21, 2019Animals are awesome here. Forget your camera, because is really dark to take any shot here
SariDecember 28, 2013Despite taking photos with flash is not allowed, many visitors sadly still use them. Or bring flashlights and point them onto the animals' eyes. It stresses out the animals.- Frank OdignalAugust 23, 2012Take the tram tour and walk the Fishing Cat Trail and Leopard Trail. And don't miss the Creatures Of The Night Show!
Wen WongDecember 18, 2014Arrive after 9.30 after most of the screaming kids are gone. No queues for the tram and lots more animals emerge from the darkness. fishing cats are badass!
Ar NavarroSeptember 5, 2017Good experience for kids. Definitely for kids (but not under 4yrs old, else they might end up bawling).
Alexei RiveraSeptember 17, 2012A camera with ISO going north of 6400 is probably the only way you can take home pictures. Flashes are forbidden and it is seriously dark.
Maddie ColemanAugust 4, 2012Took the guided tour and got to feed the elephants including a baby! Such an incredible experience, a Singapore must
Lesley Ann PadillaJune 21, 2013Friday's the schedule of actual feeding of the Lion! Everything's so damn real except that there are fake trees.

"This is a must-do 40-minute tram ride at the Night Safari, with voice guide in English. Gives an overview of the Night Safari. Sit on either side of the tram for a better view. Avoid the middle seats."
