If you are badge collector like me, this is sure to be something that is up your alley. For clarity, we didn't go there because of the Zoolympix, it just happen to be going on while we were there. But it was a really great event because it always feels great when you get some extra goodies and it was a nice goal to work towards for the adults. (We went with the extended family so the adults may get bored when the little one hang around too long with the animals.)
When we registered, we also got a packet of Milo and Coco-crunch which made the kids really happy. The route for River Safari was quite straight forward. We actually completed it first and took our own sweet time. For the Zoo portion, there was a specific path to take. Because we had less than 2 hours there, we made a mad dash - my brother was eager to complete the Zoolympix so that we can get 3 badges instead of 1. (You get an extra 1 batch for completing both.)
While we were there, we also enjoyed the Champion meal. It was decently priced but very diabetic. LOL! Like most of the Mandai operated F&B, the food quality is pretty decent. If you are very competitive, you must make your way to the Champions Village at the Zoo. There is a bouncy castle (which deflated right before my #1 eyes. He was crushed.) and there are way more events there, which we all missed cos we landed there pretty late in the day.
Since the kids arrived, we have been the Zoo/ River Safari for multiple times. River Safari if it is rainy and Zoo if we are game to walk. We try to avoid going for both in a day because honestly, the kids have their own opinions and they are more curious and patient to observe than the adults. Also, they can stop very, very long at play areas. Hehe. This was probably the first time we conquered both.
Definitely worth a visit this June holidays! You can get your tickets from Klook here!
