Set in a rainforest environment, Singapore Zoo's world-famous "Open Concept” offers the opportunity to experience and be inspired by the wonders of nature. Home to more than 2,400 specimens of over 300 species, 34 per cent of which are threatened, the Zoo has attained a strong reputation internationally for its conservation initiatives and breeding programmes. To better meet the healthcare needs of its animals and working towards its aspiration to become a leading global centre of excellence for veterinary healthcare and research, a purpose-built Wildlife Healthcare and Research Centre was set up in March 2006. Annually, approximately 1.9 million visitors enjoy experiential learning journeys at the 26-hectare award-winning Zoo.

Yea I do not recommend coming here.There were barely any animals. For the expensive ticket price, I expected so much more. Definitely not worth the money or time.Full review by Riitieshaa M

We came here on an overcast but warm morning with only a 50% chance of rain. On arrival this was 100% and it was raining. Not to fret, the Zoo gift shop has a variety of umbrellas and ponchos for sal…Full review by AnhArmaan

I am not singaporean, but we were there for a month in January, and if things remain the same, i think it will take you half an hour to 45 min from the moment you get to a taxi to get to the zoo and another 45 to get back, if traffic is as usual - you may count an hour from and to the airport just to be sure, as traffic can become crazy. You have enough time to see a lot, and maybe have lunch there. It will be wise to ask your driver who'll take you to the zoo, to come back a fixed time to get you, so you will not need a taxi from the zoo, as it may take lots of time to arrive (happened to us on our second visit, it was raining and it took about an hour to find a taxi). Your driver will be able to give you an estimate on your return time, too.
