Don’t forget to check the schedules available for the day and book ahead. The tram ride is only around 30min, and it is kind of hard to take photos as the lights are dim. Rest assured, the experience is one of a kind and the shows are a must see, even for adults.”

Klook Pass Singapore – Mandai Pass
If you plan to visit 2, 3, or all 4 of the Mandai Wildife Parks, namely Singapore Zoo, Night Safari, River Wonders, or the new Bird Paradise that opened in 2023, you’re better off purchasing the Klook Pass Singapore – Mandai Pass! Here are the details:
- PRICE: Book here starting at $48 (vs. regular price of $51)
- INCLUSIONS: Admission to 2, 3, or 4 of the Mandai zoos
- BEST REVIEW: “Using this pass kept my bookings for the parks organised. You have to reserve your visit time through the Mandai website and I would recommend taking a screenshot of the confirmation it issues as it’s not the same as your initial Klook booking. The zoo is expansive and in a beautiful setting. The night safari opened about an hour after the zoo closes; it was extremely busy because most people leave the zoo and wait for entry to the night safari. It didn’t seem to matter what time you had preselected. It is a unique way to see the animals and I definitely recommend walking around the park after the tram ride. I was really impressed by the bird park despite it being in the process of moving from Jurong to join the other parks in Mandai. I don’t think I’ve visited a park quite like it!”
