Glamping in the Wild program returns to Singapore Zoo

March 11, 2023

Singapore Zoo’s Glamping in the Wild offering returns from 1st April 2023 with a refreshed program featuring behind-the-scenes tours including viewing the Wildlife Healthcare and Research Centre.

Tours include getting acquainted with a herd of Asian Elephants during a special feeding and education session with their carers.

Also on offer is the opportunity to discover the inner workings of the Wildlife Nutrition Centre that caters to the nutritional needs of some 15,000 animals that call Singapore Zoo, Night Safari and River Wonders home. Learn how the dedicated nutrition team works hand in hand with their animal care counterparts to plan diets that closely replicate what the animals would eat in the wild. Guests can continue their journey at the Wildlife Healthcare and Research Centre and view the clinical world of veterinary experts as they keep the Zoo’s wild residents in optimum health.

Private guides then transport guests to Wild Africa for an introduction to the charismatic carnivores before rounding off the afternoon with priority seats at the Splash Safari presentation, soaking in the aquatic acrobatics of a captivating Californian Sea Lion while learning how to better care for the seas and planet.

After dinner, guests can breathe in the evening smells of the rainforest with a relaxing stroll as the park winds down for the day – with the chance to view native wildlife such as the Spotted Wood Owls or Sunda Colugos that reside in the parks as they start their twilight rituals.

As night falls, guests retreat to the comfort of dome tents and are treated the following morning with the Zoo’s signature Breakfast in the Wild, which features a tantalising array of local and international flavours thoughtfully created with ingredients friendly to wildlife and the planet. The highlight of the morning will be encounters with animal ambassadors including enigmatic Orangutans, an inquisitive Tamandua, boisterous Coatimundis and vibrant Macaws.

For guests who prefer getting up close with aquatic animals, River Wonders’ ever popular Glamping with the Manatees is also available from April through August this year. Guests can look forward to drifting to sleep while watching the zoo’s mesmerising manatees, exclusive behind-the-scenes sessions and meeting charming capybaras at the Once Upon a River presentation
