A Heartfelt Thanks to Bradley and Farizshah – The Heroes of Our Visit<br><br>The Singapore Zoo and River Wonders need more empathetic and understanding staff like Bradley and Farizshah. They went above and beyond to turn what was becoming a disappointing day into one we’ll always remember fondly. This incident happened on 30th March.<br><br>That day, my family—including two elderly parents in their 70s—visited the Zoo and River Wonders. My two daughters, aged 12 and 16, were especially excited. They had been looking forward to seeing the capybaras for weeks—their bedroom is full of capybara plushies. This was the highlight of the trip.<br><br>As soon as we entered the zoo, they set a 12:25 PM alarm on their phones to book the 2:30 PM capybara show, which opens for booking exactly two hours in advance. Once the system opened, they successfully reserved eight seats for our entire family.<br><br>Fast forward to 2:00 PM. The grandmother has arthritis and walks slowly, and we also had a 3-year-old in a wagon. Despite trying our best, by 2:15 PM we realized we wouldn’t make it in time. So I told the girls to go ahead and run to the venue without us.<br><br>They arrived around 2:25 PM—still early—and approached the staff at the entrance. But they were denied entry because “not everyone in the group was present.” Panicked, they called us. I could hear the anxiety in their voices as they watched the staff continue letting others in.<br><br>They tried again, explaining that the rest of the family wasn’t coming and only the two of them would attend. But by then, the staff closed entry and said, “Sorry, it’s full.”<br><br>They broke down in tears.<br><br>By the time my wife and I arrived, we were devastated to learn they had been turned away. I approached the staff to explain our situation: the girls had arrived early and we told them to go ahead without us, due to our slow-moving group. We had reserved our seats fairly. The response? A cold, “Sorry, it’s full. You can try booking the 4:30 PM show.” Seconds later, a “fully booked” sticker was slapped over the 4:30 PM slot.<br><br>Once again, tears rolled down my daughters’ faces. This show was the main reason for our visit.<br><br>Frustrated and upset, we asked to speak to a supervisor. The staff tried to brush us off again, saying, “The people in charge are all inside, we can’t do anything.”<br><br>What baffled us most was this: we reserved 8 seats, but the venue was already full before the showtime. We later learned from the staff that at 2:25 PM, they start admitting walk-ins. If the seats fill up, even those with reservations are denied entry. But where is this policy stated? Nowhere. There was no sign, no warning—not even in the booking confirmation.<br><br>At this low point, Farizshah appeared.<br><br>Unlike the others, she listened patiently. Though not in charge of the show, she took the initiative to speak with her supervisor, Bradley. He came over, heard our story, and was visibly shocked. He agreed—denying the girls entry despite their early arrival was unreasonable.<br><br>Bradley spoke to the staff in charge of the show. With Farizshah as witness confirming the girls had arrived at 2:25 PM, he made the call: the girls would be allowed in, along with our 3-year-old. It was already 2:40 PM by then, but the joy on their faces was priceless—especially since the capybaras appeared during the later part of the show.<br><br>Afterward, Bradley even offered complimentary tickets to make up for the earlier disappointment.<br><br>Both Bradley and Farizshah showed the empathy and professionalism that was sorely lacking earlier. They listened, understood, and took action when it truly mattered. The contrast between them and the earlier staff—who rigidly followed protocol without compassion—was stark.<br><br>Honestly, if you're going to be that robotic, you might as well replace people with machines.<br><br>Mandai Wildlife Reserve would greatly benefit from having more staff like Farizshah and Bradley. Five stars to both of them—they were our daughters’ knights in shining armor that day, and we deeply appreciate their kindness and support. |

Feeding the manatees was an amazing experience. Keeper Deneira & Yi Qi and guides Lin and Joey were great. They helped us all the way, explaining about the manatees and making sure we had a great time. A must try when you visit River Wonders!!! |

We had a truly lovely time at River Wonders, made even more special by the amazing service from Diyaanah. She was incredibly helpful and attentive, always ready to assist with a warm smile. What touched us most was how caring and gentle she was with our kids – you can tell she genuinely enjoys being around children. She made them feel comfortable and happy throughout the visit, which made the experience so much more enjoyable for our family. Thank you, Diyaanah, for your kindness and outstanding service! You really made our day. |

Kind pf small for the price you pay. Only took us about 2 hours. Good to go on a weekday to avoid crowds. River is a bit too fast flowing so its hatd to really spot the animals. But a fun and different zoo experience. Would combine it with one of the other parts of the park. |

We went here last March 28 with my family with the hopes of meeting Jia Jia and Kai Kai (Pandas) in person but sadly we were'nt able to because of the weather condition and technical issues occured that day. But we were so glad and thankful for the hospitality and friendliness being shown to us by Hiwaa, she's one of the guide staff inside the Panda house. This place should be on your list when you come in Singapore. |

Came here after having this on my bucket list for so long! Had a very pleasant experience especially with Nadiah at the Amazonia encounters. She was very informative, polite and very friendly. Really made the trip so much better although I kept asking her a lot of questions. Hopefully will be back one day! ☺️ Capybara is very cute!! |

Ameer, Hafiz & Farizshah were amazing as they offered to help my son pick up his toy from under the walkway in the bushes. They were resilient and creative to find a safe solution to retrieve the item by using a pole with sticky tape at the tip. Their mannerism were so good and they were also friendly. I’m glad to have them around when we needed help. My son is so thankful for their help and efforts throughout. |

Love the experiences here. The big aquarium gave feeling of peace and tranquility with some others seating together however when a bunch of group of people came and were noisy and loud, this was no longer possible. However overall experience was great. I really hope through the place, education is achieved to younger generations to help preserve the existence of these animals, protect them and to value them no matter how small or big or interesting they are. |
