Singapore Night Safari Costs: Ticket, Transport Explained
You know that feeling when you land in Singapore, everything's bright and buzzing, and you wonder what the city looks like after dark? That's how I felt stepping into Night Safari Singapore for the first time, an animal park where night is the show. But before you go, you'll want to know how much it really costs, what's included, and what surprises there might be. This is your no-nonsense guide to the cost breakdown Night Safari Singapore and how to make the most of your visit.
What makes Night Safari Singapore special
The Singapore zoo night tour offers more than just seeing wildlife under moonlight. This is the world's first nocturnal wildlife park. You ride a tram through dimly lit habitats, follow walking trails, and watch creatures that are active when most of us are winding down. Think fishing cats, slow lorises, hyenas, Malayan tapirs, leopards, and more.
Singapore Night Safari with Tram Ride costs around S$45 with Singapore Tourist Pass. You get a free attraction and other offers with the pass. Please check the pass page for the latest offers.
How to reach Night Safari and travel costs
Getting there and back can add to your total. Here are realistic options and what they cost:
| Transport option | Approx cost from city centre (SGD) | Notes and suggestions |
|---|---|---|
| MRT + Shuttle | ~ S$3 for the shuttle + cost of MRT ride (varies) | budget-friendly way; but shuttle timing matters. |
| Direct Bus | ~ S$8 one-way or S$16 roundtrip depending on point of departure ‒ some pick-ups leave from central areas. | More convenient if you don't want to change modes. |
| Taxi / Grab | 20-30 mins, S$25-S$35 each way depending on traffic. | Best for comfort, especially at night or travel with family. |
Insider tips that travellers often don't know
- The show "Creatures of the Night" fills up fast: get there early. Even if your ticket allows entrance, if you arrive late, you might miss prime seating.
- Trams run regularly, but the last tram gives quieter viewing, animals seem more active later, so plan to stay until near park closing.
- Check weather forecasts: Singapore can have sudden tropical showers. Raincoats help more than umbrellas in some trails.
- Bring insect repellent and wear light breathable clothes, night time humidity + foliage tends to bring mosquitoes.
