Set in one of the most beautiful wildlife environments in the world, Singapore Zoo is home to over 2,800 animals from over 300 species of mammals, birds, and reptiles. At the zoo, they roam freely in their near-natural habitats, separated from visitors only by moats and wooden fencing. The park also boasts the world's first free-ranging orangutan habitat in a zoo.

With your 1-day admission ticket, walk around the zoo or use the tram to rest your feet and enjoy the views. Impressive exhibits include the white tiger, Asian elephant, pygmy hippo, free-ranging orangutan, otter, sun bear, and proboscis monkey.

In addition, there are shows and feedings, a waterfall aviary, a bird park, a wet-play area, animal rides, and a tropical-animal-themed slide and spray shack in the superb waterpark. To satiate your inevitable thirst and hunger, head to one of the many bistros, cafes, and restaurants in the complex.
