The Night Safari in Singapore is the world's first nocturnal zoo, opened in 1994. The Night Safari is a unique experience that allows visitors to see animals that are most active at night. The park is divided into seven geographical zones, each with its own set of animals. Visitors can take a tram ride through the park, or walk along one of the four walking trails. Explore the world's first nocturnal zoo, observing creatures like Malayan tigers and Komodo dragons in their natural nighttime habitats. Don't miss the Creatures of the Night Show, where you'll witness owls, flying squirrels, and other nocturnal animals showcase their amazing abilities.

Very good trip, lots of animals to see but still very hot and muggy. DO NOT BOOK THROUGH VIATOR!! Our email link to the tickets did not work and we only got through the gate after the young lady sorted things with her manager
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed seeing the animals, but we apologize for the issues with ticketing and entry. Your comments are noted to help improve the experience for future guests.
The night Safari was a bit underwhelming based on the hype. The tram ride was a disappointment as most of the animals were asleep. The highlight was the small fox in the show. Make sure you reserve your spot two hours ahead of time. We would have been fine missing this attraction! The local tour company Viator used was My Singapore Holiday and they were useless. We booked a private transfer and paid a premium (more than the Night Safari tickets alone) and our return driver wanted to pick us up an hour earlier than what was scheduled. This would have meant only 2 hours at the night Safari. We tried many times to contact My Singapore Holiday, but they never responded until we were on our way home. We felt pressured to leave the Night Safari early as it was our only option (except to pay again for another taxi). We felt stranded. If you do decide to visit the Night Safari, do not use My Singapore Holidays.
Amazing experience. Got really close to multiple animals. The experience was more fun than expected. Would definitely recommend as a must do when in Singapore. Would recommend to pick an early time slot. It was kinda chaotic on behalf of the staff at the park. But no other hiccups once we entered the park.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you had such an amazing experience and were able to get close to multiple animals. It’s great to know the visit exceeded your expectations and that you would recommend it as a must-do activity in Singapore. We also appreciate your honest comment regarding the initial organization at the park. Your feedback is valuable, and we will share it for review. We’re glad to hear that everything went smoothly once you were inside. Thank you again for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you on another experience soon.
Our tram ride was disappointing with the driver only stopping twice for us to take photos. Not many animals were available on show. The amphitheatre was also limited in animals. Disappointing to not see any monkey family there. Also wanting to know why we're they selling toy kangaroos in the shop?
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the tram ride and overall experience didn’t meet your expectations. Only having two photo stops and seeing fewer animals than expected can definitely feel disappointing, especially when you’re hoping for a more immersive visit. Your comments about the amphitheatre show and the absence of monkeys are also noted. As for the toy kangaroos in the shop, many attractions include a variety of general wildlife-themed souvenirs, not only those related to the animals on site. Still, we understand how this might feel out of place when certain expected animals weren’t present. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate you taking the time to share it. This helps highlight areas where the experience can be improved for future visitors.
The travel company this people use never provide the ticket because I was asking so many questions I guess
At night we didn't see as many animals as we thought. We did the tram ride, walked the trails, and saw the show. Expensive for what was offered
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the nighttime experience didn’t meet your expectations and that the number of animals seen was lower than anticipated. We appreciate your honesty regarding the value and will take your comments into consideration to improve future experiences.
My ticket did not work, so I had to purchase a new one at the safari. Next time I will not buy from an online service,
With the taxi fare and the entry fee the experience was very poor and not value for money. Obviously aimed for young families. Given that it was a night-time event, some of the animals were not able to be sighted. The taxi rid home topped off a terrible night with the driver drifting into adjoining lanes, unsure of where he was going to. Did not use his blinkers, in some locations drove at 50kph in the 70 zone and topped it off by turning into the wrong street and clipping the kerb twice.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that your experience was disappointing, and we especially take your concerns about the return transfer seriously. To help us investigate this matter properly, may we kindly ask for your name or booking reference number? If you booked the ticket with transfer through us, we definitely want to follow up on the issue with the driver. Safety is extremely important to us, and we have not received similar complaints before. In the future, we kindly ask that you notify us immediately if any problem arises during your tour or transfer. We are always here to assist and would have acted right away to resolve the situation.
Paid in full 5 months ago, had no contact with Viator, sent them two messages day before the event, still no contact, arrived at the zoo, still no ticket, zoo manager called Viator and they said they were refunding us, had to pay cash on the night, Viator said they had no tickets left for that day !!!!!! Zoo manager was great and our evening was wonderful but no thanks to Viator, who also ruined our last day in Morocco earlier this year, took our booking and no one turned up at the hotel to collect us !!!!
We’re really sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with Viator. It’s unacceptable to have no communication after booking so far in advance, and even worse to be left without a ticket on the day of your visit. We're glad the zoo manager was able to assist and that you still had a wonderful evening despite the issues. It’s disappointing that this isn’t the first time Viator has let you down—customers deserve better reliability and service. We hope you receive your refund promptly and that future experiences are much smoother!
Very well thought out safari. It has a tram ride and a self-explanatory trail system. Do both, and they cover slightly different animals (with some overlap). Great experience seeing the beautiful animals in the dark. Food options were great too.
Thank you for sharing your experience! 😊 It sounds like you had a fantastic time exploring the safari, both by tram and on foot. Seeing the animals in the dark must have been an unforgettable experience! 🦁🌙 We're glad you enjoyed the food options as well. Hope to see you again for another adventure! 🚀🐾
