The tour guide has a very deep understanding of this place. I kept explaining the history of this place, the origin of the place name, and the characteristics of the building along the way. It really opened my eyes. As a Singaporean, I never knew that this place has so many different cultures and so many specialties. During the three-hour journey, while listening and watching, I forget fatigue. This itinerary is well planned, great!
The zoo in Singapore is very big, so my mother took us to take a small train to take a tour around the zoo. Then we went for lunch. After lunch, we went to see the animals. We saw monkeys, elephants, penguins, giraffes, kangaroos, lions, tigers, hippos... and many other animals. We also took a lot of photos with them. Singapore Zoo is really fun.
I enjoy my trip there and hope to visit again. Why do I enjoy? Firstly, I got to know about how the name and history of Madame Tussauds came about. It was fascinating. I get to see the famous names in Singapore up close. I would be there again to read into the history of those I missed during my trip.
Night safari was interesting, an exotic experience to see animals at night. Lots of big cats. Animal shows was fantastic, do queue early, limited seats available. Do ask the staff for tickets of later show if the next show was fully booked. For Jurong Bird Park, it's kinda boring. My only impression left were Amigo in the animal show and plenty of beautiful flamingos of various color(pink, red, orange & whites). River safari was great, airconditioned and sheltered, perfect for hot sunny days. Pandas Kaikai and Jiajia were super adorable. Panda buns in Panda Mama Kitchen were cute too, prefer red beans compared to chocolate custard. Staff in RS were kind and friendly. We are offered second rides for River Amazon Quest as there were no other visitors at that time. We spent 3-4 hours there including lunch. A gentle reminder: Be sure to check weather condition before visiting Singapore Zoo! There was a sudden downpour during our visit to the zoo. Not so fun to visit this place in rainy day. Managed to visit white bengal tigers before the rain. Then we have no choice but to take tram ride during the rain, caught a glimpse of girrafes, zebras and rhinoceros. Chimpanzees and other macaques went hiding due to the rain. Tram rides in singapore zoo is not included in the ticket. You have to pay additional $5 per person, but I suggest you can just skip the tram rides. Not worth it. If you are vegetarian/vegan, you can try Ah meng restaurant's biryani sets and vegetarian naan sets. They are pretty nice.
My first experience on Singapore Cable Car.. There is no wait time during daytime but nighttime there's long queue and we queue for approx. 30mins before we went on-board. The night scenery is very nice and also we receive a really good customer service at Good Old Days Restaurant! The food is yummy too! We added on 1 piece of cake in view of celebrating my friend birthday. Will book again if there is next time. 😁😁😁
