Night Safari

The Night Safari is not simply an illuminated zoo or a version of the nightlife areas of parks like Faunia. The Singapore Night Safari is a 40-hectare natural environment that offers visitors the chance to see tropical jungle wildlife at dusk.

The visit is done part by foot and part by tram in the style of "Jurassic Park". Besides the tour of the animals there are several shows that are worth seeing, especially "Creatures of the night".

There are two types of entrance: stroll or tram. You must buy the entrance with tram as there are many points of the park that can not be reached by walking.

The creation of the Safari Night was motivated because 90% of the tropical animals are nocturnal and are more active at dusk.

In the visit you will be able to observe more than 1.000 animals of 100 different species.

The most important parts of the tour are: the "cave" of the bats (they are loose and if you are lucky they will pose you in your head), the cage of the flying squirrels (a really curious animal) and, of course, The Malaysian tigers.
