Singapore Night Safari

We went to the night safari recently.

The itineries suggested in the nightsafari website were clear... It would take atleast 2 and a half hours to get around in the safari. Ofcourse there are more to do if you choose to stay.

One of the first things to see is the tribal dance and fire show. You can choose your own time to watch this show. Found below is a video clip....

(P.S.Well, since it was at "night" and I was no expert night mode photographer, I didn't get much quality pictures, but the videos in this post were found in youtube)



We walked the "fishing cat trail" first, for it was very short (about 20 minutes) and it was near the amphitheatre where the "creatures of the night" show was to happen. This program was very interesting and you could see many nocturnal animals in action.



One of the remarkable events is the otters dropping the recyclable items in its respective bins...



After this program was the 45 minute tram ride. You could alight the tram in the next tram station to continue with the remaining walking trails, leopard trail and the forest giants trail. The tram takes you through the darkest and sometimes unlit paths inside the jungle and shows the animals mostly obvious even in the darkness.


Take a look at the night safari map and plan your trip.

I suggest to be present there atleast by 8.30 pm to make sure that you do not miss any of the fun, just in case you plan a late night trip. Either case, give yourself a good 3:30 hours. The safari opens at 7 and closes at 12 midnight.

Another piece of information is that most restaurants within the safari close at 11 pm though Bongo burgers isn't closed until after midnight...
