Skyhelix, which opened on December 15 this year, is Singapore’s newest attraction and highest open-air panoramic ride. 

On the 12-minute ride, guests can sit on an open-air gondola that will slowly rotate 35 meters above the ground. At the peak, guests will be able to enjoy a panoramic view of Sentosa and the city while their legs dangle in the air. 

Considering that the ride’s apex is 79 metres above sea level, it is also one of the highest vantage points on Sentosa so this isn’t for the faint-hearted. 

The best part is that you can actually bring food and drinks onboard the ride. There is really nothing more serene than sipping a cocktail while being 35 meters in the air and with the wind whipping through your hair.

2. Gogreen Segway Eco Adventure

There is probably nothing more thrilling than getting to ride around on a segway and Sentosa takes this a step further with a segway ride that will bring you on a scenic 30-minute ride to explore Palawan and Siloso beach as well as many different sights around the island. 

If the 30-minute Gogreen Segway Eco Adventure is too long for you, you can try the shorter Segway Fun Ride which is an introductory ride that will only take you 800 meters.

3. Fort Siloso Skywalk

If you’re looking for a more secluded place to get in a good workout or to get a stunning Instagram shot, Fort Siloso Skywalk is the perfect place. 

Standing at 11-storeys high and stretching 181 meters long, the Skywalk trail boasts a scenic treetop trek that will eventually lead you to Fort Silosa. 

The area is also rich in history so make sure you check out some of the sights such as the Surrender Chambers.

The light show, titled Magical Shores, has two daily sessions and you can book your slot here.
