3 Best Sights in Singapore

Singapore Flyer

Marina Bay

One of the largest observation wheels in the world, and the biggest in Asia, the Singapore Flyer offers one of the most exciting ways to soar over Marina Bay and capture its best views. The 30-minute journey provides unparalleled day and night views that, with good weather, stretch up to 45 km away to Changi, Sentosa, and parts of Indonesia and Malaysia. Packages that include dinner are available.

Skyhelix Sentosa

Sentosa Island

If sky-high views are your thing, this gentle, spiraling open-air ride that hovers 35 meters in the sky, affording a panoramic view of the Keppel Bay area and the nearby Southern Islands, is one to make time for. If you're planning to travel over or back from the island via the cable car, you can slot in this ride as one of the bonuses for your combo pass. It's located at the Sentosa cable-car station.

Skyline Luge

Sentosa Island
Embrace the irony of luging—a winter sport that involves sledding down an ice track feet first–-in perennially hot and humid Singapore. Here, however, you twist and turn down one of four paved tracks while seated on a luge with handlebars. If day luging is too tame, night rides are also available at no additional cost. The four-seater Skyride chairlift offers a more leisurely way to take in the view.
