About Singapore Zoo

Welcome to Singapore Zoo, consistently rated as one of the world's best zoos and a must-visit attraction for Singapore tour packages. Spanning 26 hectares, this award-winning wildlife park is home to over 2,800 animals representing more than 300 species.

What sets Singapore Zoo apart is its revolutionary 'open concept' design, where animals roam freely in spacious, naturalistic habitats separated from visitors by hidden barriers, moats, and glass panels instead of traditional cages. This creates an immersive experience where you can observe wildlife in environments that closely mimic their natural habitats.

Established in 1973, Singapore Zoo has become a global leader in wildlife conservation, animal care, and education. The zoo's commitment to providing excellent animal welfare while educating visitors about wildlife conservation makes it a perfect destination for families visiting Singapore.
