#9 Visit the Singapore Zoo, River Safari and Night Safari

Animal enthusiasts shouldn’t miss Singapore’s award-winning zoo, home to over 300 species. Highlights include white tigers, baboons, elephants, Komodo dragons, meerkats and cute pygmy hippos. Little ones will love the Kidzworld area, which has a water playground, obstacle course, farmyard animals and more. If their legs get tired, you can tour the zoo by guided tram. Another option is an evening visit; the Night Safari offers an elusive look at beasts and critters that are soundly snoozing during regular zoo hours. Meanwhile, the newer River Safari next door has over 6,000 animals that live in or along the world’s most famous rivers.
