Afternoon Zoo Itinerary


I would strongly recommend you to visit Singapore zoo in the morning, unless your schedule left with only half a day in the afternoon. Why visit Singapore Zoo in the morning? See morning zoo itinerary for details.

The crowd in the afternoon is definitely heavier than the morning. Avoid weekends, school holidays and public holidays if you can and when you are left with an afternoon visit. The obvious reason is that heavy crowd lead to more noises and lots of movements that scare away many of the animals. The result is you will encounter many exhibits with 'no show' in animals.

Get in from here. It's a big exhibit with two main exits and a few side gates. Remember where you get in and get out from the same exit.


3.15-3.45pm Reptopia

I thought they are fake ones, as they don't move at all for as long as I can wait. But the eyes are blinking.


The above green iguana and toucan can be found outdoor by getting out from one of the side gates of Reptopia as shown below.

After exiting Reptopia, follow the slope down till you see a staircase on your right, get down the staircase to see the first exhibit of Wild Africa, the Fossa.

Backtrack to here after seeing the penguins and make a right turn to the Shaw Foundation Theatre for the show.

Among the four shows in Singapore Zoo, this is the most popular one. Personally I enjoyed this show very much. So, don't miss it while you are there.

One thing Gibbons can do better than us is that they can swing from here to there in a split seconds like nobody business. They are so proud to show off their skill as shown in the below video.
