Our pick
Singapore Zoo or River Wonders if I only have half a day?
Take the Singapore Zoo, the bigger of the two. A visitor's adult ticket is S$49 at the zoo and S$45 at River Wonders on weekdays, so choosing River Wonders saves only a few dollars. We'd spend the half day at Singapore Zoo and keep River Wonders for a second Mandai day.
