Located on Sentosa Island, Universal Studios is a must-visit theme park, especially if you’re travelling with kids. Enter a fantasy world based on your most delightful imaginations—from the action-packed Hollywood movies to a glimpse of ancient Egypt. A fun-filled day with roller coaster rides, fine dining and much more await you here.
Good to Know: The park is open from 10 am till 7 pm. You can get the VIP passes to avail complimentary dinner and special discount on rides.
Have you put skydiving on hold because of your fear of heights? We have some good news for you! In Singapore you can skydive indoors at iFly, and it’s totally safe. Enjoy the thrill of a 10,000 feet free-fall in the safety of an indoor wind tunnel and feel the adrenaline flowing through your veins.
iFly Singapore is the world’s first and largest themed wind tunnel for indoor skydiving. It is about 16.5 feet wide and 56.5 feet tall, and you can even get yourself photographed or videoed here and preserve this memory forever. You want to know the best part? You can skydive at one-fifth the usual costs!
If you dream of luxury cars, Singapore has something amazing in store for you! Unleash the power of a Ferrari or a Lamborghini at the Formula One Circuit and cruise along the goosebumps-inducing track. Don’t worry, an expert instructor will be guiding you throughout and this 15-minute ride will definitely be something you can brag about to your friends. Are you already excited?
Bungy jumping is obviously a “must-do” in every adventure-lover’s bucket list, but how about reverse bungy? Yes, you can experience this in Singapore! G-Max Reverse Bungy straps you inside a capsule before catapulting you 60-metres high into the air. Don’t be afraid, you won’t be alone inside the capsule! Feel the goosebumps as you reach the speed of up to 200 kmph with this truly breathtaking experience!
If you’re looking for a night out in Singapore, there are no better destinations than Altimate, Woo Bar or Zouk. Altimate is a lounge bar perched sky-high at level 61 of 1-Altitude – one of Singapore’s popular dining and entertainment venues, Zouk has the best customer service and Woo Bar is a great place to unwind with a drink.
Don’t forget to try the local cuisine on your night out—Gorge on the Chilli Crab, the Fish Head Curry and the Nasi lemak, a fragrant rice dish cooked in coconut milk.
The Singapore Zoo is one of the world’s finest rainforest zoos, where tourists are allowed to walk through animal exhibits. It also offers night safaris, showcasing over a thousand nocturnal animals—an experience you cannot afford to miss. The zoo also has adorable animal shows, including the popular ‘Splash Safari’ show, featuring sea lions, and the ‘Elephants at Work and Play’ show.
Good to Know: You also get a chance to feed the animals for select exhibits.
Marina Bay Sands is an integrated hotel resort that comprises three hotel towers connected by a sky terrace on the roof, known as the Sands SkyPark. Take a dip in the SkyPark pool, which is the world’s longest elevated swimming pool with a vanishing edge. You can also explore the theatre block or the casino block. And, if shopping is more your thing, Marina Bay Sands houses over 300 luxury boutiques– including the world's largest Louis Vuitton boutique, which is on a floating island.
#MMTFunFact: The two, very exclusive Chairman Suites are 629 square-metres each, equivalent to the size of over 2 tennis courts!
You will be able to spot the diversity—the old architectural styles of the quays to the towering Singapore skyline. You can also catch a glimpse of the many historical landmarks such as the Merlion, The Raffles Landing Site and the Esplanade while on this cruise. The experience is breathtaking and the food onboard is great too! Although a little expensive, but it’s totally worth all the money...

Little India is one of the most vibrant localities of Singapore. East of the Singapore River, you can easily recognize this neighbourhood by its distinct aroma of spices. Shop for gold, fabrics and Ayurvedic massage oils at the market. You’ll get a bargain on almost everything – from perfumes and make-up to groceries and electronics. The Mustafa Centre here is a must-visit if you like shopping late into the night.
Good to Know: The Mustafa Centre is open throughout the day and night! Also, Little India is easily accessible by taxi, bus and the MRT.
Asia’s largest tropical Oceanarium, Underwater World is located in Sentosa Island and houses more than 2,500 marine animals from 250 different species. The most exciting part is the moving walkway that transports visitors along an underwater tunnel, where they can view the aquatic flora and fauna all around them!
