SINGAPORE FLYER

Description

Essentials about the Singapore Flyer in brief

Singapore has many great viewpoints from which you can enjoy the impressive panorama of the metropolis of millions. However, probably the best and most extraordinary of all viewpoints in the city is the Singapore Flyer. Right in the heart of downtown Singapore, Asia’s largest Ferris wheel (and the second largest in the world) has stood on the shores of Marina Bay since 2008. The fact that the Singapore Flyer lost this title in 2021 to the Ain Dubai in Dubai does not detract from the magnificent view from the 165-meter-high Ferris wheel.

The view from the Singapore Flyer

From the Singapore Flyer, you can enjoy a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view of Singapore’s imposing city center, Marina Bay with the wonderful Gardens by the Bay and the spectacular Marina Bay Sands resort, and the vibrant leisure and entertainment island of Sentosa. On clear days, you can even see up to 45 kilometers away and spot Malaysia to the north and Indonesia to the south of Singapore.

The ride with the Singapore Flyer

The Singapore Flyer’s 28 fully air-conditioned glass capsules take you on a 30-minute “flight” over Singapore. Those who find the mere ride on the Ferris wheel too boring can also book one of the Singapore Flyer’s special packages, such as an elegant dinner or cocktails and champagne on board (in which case, of course, you go more than one round). Eating and drinking at lofty heights is not everyone’s cup of tea, as we all know. Those who prefer to keep both feet on the ground can visit Singapore Food Treats, a 1960s-style food street, or enjoy modern Cantonese cuisine in the Sky View Pavilion after their ride on the Flyer.
