It was fun despite the hot weather. The klook QR code was quick and easy to use. Queues/line can be long on each ride and attraction, but still enjoy and great. The mummy ride is a must try. I also enjoyed The Shrek.

Great view though it was a quick trip. Quick process, just scan the QR. Not sure if there is airconditioning inside the ride because it was hot. Great, but personally, you can skip this in your itinerary, I think not much to miss.

Luge is so much fun. Second time in Singapore. I came to ride the luge again. Three times is enough. If it rains, you can wait and ride. The staff will wipe the water off for you. The skyline that you ride down from the luge and then go back up is scary, but you can ride it with your eyes closed.

the show was breathtaking and blew my mind, the lighting and props/setting were incredible. my first time using Klook to book, check in was easy, however I wished I had more clarity on seats before booking (like in Sistic), here was more a black box “best available” in category.
