RIVER SAFARI, River Safari

Hi, my name’s Jill, and I’m your personal guide. Along with MyWoWo, I’d like to welcome you to one of the Wonders of the World: the River Safari, a river-themed zoo with a fascinating aquarium.

The River Safari is spread over 12 hectares, between the Singapore Zoo and the Night Safari. It is the first – and only - attraction of its kind in Asia, offering the chance to admire water attractions, as well as enjoy boat trips along the river and themed rides.

The park, inaugurated in its entirety on February 28, 2014, features a reconstruction of 10 river ecosystems, including those of the Nile, the Yangtze, the Mississippi and the Amazon. It is inhabited by 5,000 animals of 300 different species, including a large number in danger of extinction. Visitors can observe extremely rare species such as anacondas, electric eels, freshwater stingrays, West Indian manatees, Mekong giant catfish, griffon vultures, red pandas, golden pheasants, jaguars, squirrel monkeys, giant otters and Chinese alligators....
