Night Safari

Night Safari Singapore, located within the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, is the world's first nocturnal wildlife park and one of the city's most iconic attractions. Since opening in 1994, it has earned multiple accolades, including being recognised as Singapore's Best Attraction Experience several times. Spread across 35 hectares of lush rainforest, the park offers visitors a rare opportunity to observe wildlife in their natural nighttime environment. Today, it is home to over 900 animals representing around 100 species, many of which are threatened or endangered.

Discover this unique wildlife attraction with our Singapore tour packages from India and witness fascinating nocturnal creatures from around the world. Some of the park's most popular residents include Malayan tigers, Asian elephants, lions, Malayan tapirs, and Sunda pangolins. Visitors can explore the park aboard the Safari Adventure Tram, which journeys through distinct geographical zones while offering insightful commentary about the animals and their habitats. For a more immersive experience, four walking trails allow guests to venture deeper into the rainforest and observe wildlife from closer vantage points.

Beyond wildlife encounters, Night Safari plays a significant role in global conservation efforts and breeding programmes for endangered species. Guests can attend engaging animal presentations, join keeper talks, and even enjoy special wildlife experiences such as feeding sessions. As darkness falls, the park transforms into a captivating wilderness where the sounds and sights of nocturnal animals create an unforgettable adventure for visitors of all ages.
