River Wonders
A world-river-themed zoo within Mandai Wildlife Reserve, where the giant pandas Kai Kai and Jia Jia are the biggest draw.
River Wonders (formerly River Safari, renamed in 2022) is themed around great rivers of the world, including the Mississippi, Congo, Nile, Mekong and Yangtze. The Amazon Flooded Forest exhibit lets you see manatees and giant otters, and the Giant Panda Forest is home to giant pandas Kai Kai and Jia Jia, who came from Sichuan. The park is fairly small, so you can see everything in about 2 to 3 hours. Many visitors combine it with Singapore Zoo and Night Safari in one day, and a combo ticket is better value (single-park adult tickets start at around S$40). Getting there: take the MRT to Khatib station and transfer to the Mandai shuttle bus, or ride the Mandai Khatib Shuttle.
