Who doesn’t love rollercoasters?
The rides at Universal Studios Singapore are awesome and we couldn’t think of a more thrilling place to visit when you’re on Sentosa Island – a popular tourist attraction in itself. Among its many draws, it offers a variety of rides, from family-friendly ones like Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase to more gripping chases like Revenge of the Mummy.
Universal Studios Singapore may not be the biggest theme park you’ll ever visit, but it’s still up to par with their other international locations. After visiting a couple of times, we’ve already got a feel of our favorite rides that we think are worth lining up for time and time again.
1. Transformers The Ride: The Ultimate 3D Battle
Transformers is an extraordinary 3D experience where you get to ride with the Autobots on an important mission. Zoom through the city and dodge all the obstacles, while trying to beat the Decepticons on this CGI adventure. The unexpected bumps and turns are a welcome surprise each time.
2. Battlestar Galactica: HUMAN vs. CYLON
Rollercoaster enthusiasts are in for a treat with the Battlestar Galactica. You get the best of both worlds with this ride at Universal Studios Singapore as it has all the loops and suspensions you could ask for in a good track. Whichever side you’re on, you’ll want to hang on tight to this high-speed attraction.
3. Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure
This river-rafting ride makes a splash – literally. Get your raincoats ready because you’re sure to get soaked on this wild adventure through Jurassic Park. The cutting-edge animatronics bring the dinosaurs to life, and while they’re fascinating to observe, don’t forget to brace yourselves for the sudden turns and deep plunges.
4. Revenge of the Mummy
Travel through Egypt on this ride that’s part rollercoaster, part animated adventure. Explore the tombs as you search for The Book of the Living and encounter surprises in the dark that will shake you. Enter with caution as you go against dangerous fireballs, swarms of beetles, and mummy armies on this fantasy-filled ride at Universal Studios Singapore.
5. Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase
If you’re visiting with young ones, make a stop at Sesame Street to meet the friendly faces of Elmo, Super Grover, Big Bird, and the rest of the group. Then head off to space for an important quest. Catch Macaroni the Merciless and bring back all the stolen pasta to Earth. It’s a fun and light ride that’s a great respite from the sweltering heat.
6. Shrek 4D Adventure
Don’t miss the Shrek 4D Adventure for an amazing show with a wonderful storyline from start to finish. The journey picks up from where the last film left off and it’s as though you’re seeing Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey in real life. Embark on a simulated trip full of bumps, bounces, air blasts, and water spray from your theatre seats.
7. WaterWorld
Technically, WaterWorld is not a ride, but it’s still an attraction at Universal Studios Singapore that we’d keep going back for. The stunt show takes place in a decked-out theatre where you get to behold talented actors who demonstrate stunts, jet ski chases, and fight the antagonists on a floating island.
Klook Tip: Pick up a map with show times when you enter Universal Studios Singapore so you can schedule a show in between the exhilarating rides.
8. Accelerator
If you’re prone to dizziness, you might want to sit this one out. Otherwise, prepare to be transported by an intergalactic space journey that puts your endurance and balance to the test. You might not be soaring in the air, but these spinning pods are still a force to be reckoned with.
While you’re at it, you might want to consider getting an Express Pass to get in front of the queue and make more time for the awesome rides on site! So, which rides at Universal Studios Singapore are you most excited to get on your next visit?
