Great tips for a more enjoyable trip to Universal Studios Singapore


TIP #1:Book your tickets in advance online or book through travel agency before you leave.

The most valuable information/tip for your Universal Studios tour is to book in advance. It will save you time and avoid disappointment of tickets being sold out especially during holidays and peak season.

TIP #2: Avoid weekends, school holidays, peak season (if you can :) )

Weekday Tickets - Monday to Friday (except Peak dates and Blackout dates)

TIP#3: Be early at the theme park so as not to miss any single ride.

Rides most enjoyed by the adult:
Battlestar Galactica , never got to try it coz it was under maintenance during our trip but even if it's open i may not have the courage to battle it out. It's for the bravehearts.
Revenge of the Mummy, this one is my fave. The drops and turns of the indoor roller coaster is just right for scaredy cat like me.
Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure , will surely get you wet. Prepare to buy a plastic poncho or bring your own to save money.
The Waterworld is an interesting live show with lots of stunts and explosions, comedic lines by the actors. Truly enjoyable but prepare for the long line.
Broadway Show Monstrocity is a live show with monsters at Pantages Hollywood Theater

Your little tots will surely love:
Lights, Camera and Action ; Donkey Live ; Shrek 4D-Adventure shows.
Bring them to ride the Canopy Flyer, Treasure Hunter, Enchanted Airways, Dino-Soarin, and King Julien's Beach Party go round.

TIP#3: Waiting in line

Waiting in line for most of the rides is 15 to 20mins. As i've observed , i waited the most at the revenge of the mummy. And the walk from the entrance going to the main ride is around 5mins. Be done with this ride in the morning so you can maximize your time.

TIP#4: Water and Food

Drinking fountains are located in the park. There are food stalls and a food court located in the Jurassic Park . Avoid long lines during lunch hours from 12pm to 2pm.

TIP#5: Clothing/Shoes

Singapore has a humid weather all year round. Dress in a very comfortable and light clothing to keep cool and pair it with comfortable walking shoes or sandals. You'll be in for a lot of standing in line and walking around the theme park.





Tip#6: Ask for the park's brochure.

This brochure would surely help you plan your action for the whole day. It also contains the park's map of attractions and show timings. Before you proceed, read and discuss with your group , design your tour to maximize your time.

Tip#7: Don't forget to bring your camera , extra battery and extra memory cards. Better be equipped or suffer the consequences.

My friend who visited the park recently found out he had a corrupted memory card. All pictures gone and he found out too late. Now he's planning another visit just for photo ops. :)

Tip#8: Don't leave the park without buying any souveinir (Well,I just had to). It's a reminder that you had great fun in the park.


TIP#9: How to get there?

If you just bought a tour from a travel agency then rest your mind because you've nothing to worry about. There will be pickup and dropoff service with the ticket you purchased. I highly recommend getting a tour if this is your first time in Singapore, or you have children with you.

For d-i-y tour here are your options:

A. By public buses - RWS 8, RWS 88 , 963R. Fare is around S$2.
B. By sentosa express - take an MRT train to Harbourfront MRT Station which is linked to Vivo City Mall. Then transfer to level 3 of Vivo City . Alight at the Waterfront Station. Fare is S$3 inclusive of Sentosa Island admission charge.
C. By MRT train - take a north-east line to Harbourfront station. You may then transfer to a RWS 8 bus or take Sentosa express.
D. By car - additional entry charges to Sentosa shall apply
E. By taxi - same as by car.
I hope you enjoy your trip to Universal Studios Singpore with this handy tips.
