The take
The zoo after dark: ride the tram loop first, then walk the trails. Both start at 7pm, so eat beforehand at Ulu Ulu by the gate (5.30pm to 11pm, last order 10.30pm). Doing the zoo by day as well? The Zoo + Night Safari day pass, S$88 adult and S$60 child, costs less than two tickets.

Before you go
Do I have to pick a time slot for Night Safari?
Yes, Mandai says all guests and members visiting Night Safari must select a time slot. It also suggests having dinner before you enter, and Ulu Ulu Safari Restaurant is the rustic dining option on site. We'd choose a slot after you've eaten, since the walking trails and the tram both start at 7pm.

What should I bring to Night Safari?
Bring your own water bottle for the refill stations, comfortable shoes and insect repellent. If the rain gets heavy, Mandai says to hop on the tram or shelter in a stall or gift shop near the entrance. Switch your camera flash off, since it can blind or startle the animals, and a medium locker is S$12 for the first 3 hours.

When does the Night Safari tram run?
The Safari Adventure Tram is complimentary, with the first departure at 7pm and the last at 11.20pm. A ride takes about 30 minutes, depending on crowds, with English audio commentary on the animals and zones, and some trams have special slots for wheelchairs. We'd ride the tram first, then walk the trails.
