- KemielSydney, Australia41 contributionsGreat experienceA must activity with the family. Spectacular views of cause! We Went when it was raining but definitely didn’t affect the experience. The accent was gradual so no light head sensations. The commentary was great, very informative. The staff were all friendly. The gift shop is reasonably priced. The photos taken after the ride is sadly very expensive- one pic costs SD$25. Further, Don’t bother trying the ‘Hot Kopi’ cafe on the ground floor… the staff a husband and wife team are miserable and rude. The food and drinks are made with a don’t care attitude. Prices are cheap though. Choices are vert limited. There are a few tables and stools but not enough if the Singapore Flyer was busy with hungry visitors. The gelato kiosk was worth the while 3 scoops was SD$9.50. Gelato was tasty nothing special! Long wait for a taxi. The Singapore time capsule is very interesting and educational. Very impressive special effects. Definitely recommend it. Tickets to the Singapore flyer includes the time capsule SD$40 pp. best to by direct from the onsite ticket office. It’s cheaper that other ticketing platforms.Visited December 2022Travelled with familyWritten 13 December 2022
- SeaMariner22Seattle, Washington251 contributionsGood views of SingaporeTypical giant Ferris Wheel attraction. Good views of Marina Bay, probably would be even better at night when Spectra was going on in front of the Sands. Cabins are climate controlled and roomy.Visited December 2022Written 17 December 2022
- Karenusher43 contributionsGreat viewsEasy to get tickets - be aware that tickets are not cheap. You have to go through an interactive part before you get onto the Singapore Flyer, personally I thought it was a waste of time and I wonder if my ticket price was expensive because of this Interactive/ immersive display. It was not good at all. The actual "Fly" around was good, took about half an hour to get all the way around. If I was to do it again I would do it at night itme and time it with seeing the Gardens by the Bay light show. Gift shop wasnt great, I dont understand what the gift shop is going for? One minute you are looing at Disney toys - which has nothing to do with the Flyer, the next you are looking at Singapore Flyer tshirts. I think it needs to stick to proabably Singapore Flyer and Singapore gifts only.Visited December 2022Written 2 January 2023
- jojo60713San Francisco, California224 contributionsDisappointing!Its soo big that it goes around very slowly. Can't get your own capsule so we ended up stuck in there will a horrible loud English family with unruly kids. They could not control them so it made our visit disappointing. The views are ok but nothing we hadn't seen before from Marina Bay Sands. They didn't use every capsule for some reason even though the line was long. Don't think I need to do it again - not as impressive as expected or hoped. Not near the MRT - 10 minute walk in the heat and then it doesn't open til 2pm where you have to line up again and wait. Not really worth it.Thank you for your feedback, we will take note of this issue and improve our service further. Have a pleasant day ahead.Written 29 March 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited December 2022Written 5 January 2023
- Mike BChristchurch, New Zealand121 contributionsThey need to organize themselves better !You turn up to ground floor, then it says to go to ticket machine on level 1. The one machine was broken !! They you have to go back to level G again to a real ticket office. Then back to level 1 to board. Reasonable price, good view, funny to watch others in your cabin - very scared. Kids would probably appreciate the pre tour, we had no interest.Thank you for your feedback, we will take note of this issue and improve our service further.

- Humming Herbs14 contributionsAbove EarthThe Singapore Flyer is a must-see attraction in Singapore. The views from the top are absolutely breathtaking and offer a unique perspective of the city. The staff was helpful and provided clear instructions on how to get to the top. The ticketing process was also smooth and easy. Even on a rainy and stormy day, the Flyer remained open, which was a pleasant surprise. I highly recommend visiting the Singapore Flyer for an unforgettable experience. It's a must-go place for anyone visiting Singapore.Visited September 2022Written 4 February 2023
- chow y10 contributionsmust-see attractionIf you are only doing a stop over in Singapore, this is a must-see attraction. 30-minute ride goes by so quickly. We booked with the hope we timed sunset to be when we were at the top, and we got it right. So the views are spectacular - you can almost see the whole of Singapore.Visited January 2023Written 20 February 2023
- MJNTRAVELVancouver Island, Canada81 contributionsA mustFantastic experience, the views are amazing, we went in around 7pm to gain the mix of light. Dusk and night, breathtaking to see. The wheel is so smooth and stable to the point you don’t feel it move.highly recommendedVisited February 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 24 February 2023
- AngelikaMelbourne, Australia299 contributionsSpectular ViewsThe Singapore Flyer is a fantastic way to see the Singapore Marina Bay in its entirety. The flyer moves in a very slow and calming manner. The entire experience is 30 minutes. The best time would be around 7:15/7:30 just as the sun is setting.Visited April 2023Written 9 April 2023
- Sherpa1921862 contributionsGreat views and hopefully you can time it right!Great place to take in all the amazing views Singapore has to offer. We went at sundown around 6:30 PM which was great because we then caught the end of daylight and the beginning of sunset which made for great pictures and an every better view. Be aware that there are self service kiosks to buy tickets around the corner in case there is a long line at the ticket counter. One thing we really appreciated was that they did not fill the capsule. There were less than 10 of us giving us all more than sufficient space to move around and take pics without being in each other's way.Visited April 2023Written 9 April 2023

You cannot come to Singapore and not get on the Flyer.
It’s the only way to see the enormity of the city and the port.
It’s 40SUSD per adult which includes a walkthrough history of Singapore and the actual turn on the Flyer.
The ride lasts 30 minutes.
Set behind the F1 pit lane.

We did the Singapore Sling experience, starting in the VIP lounge, we had a capsule with only the 4 of us. Yummy Singapore Sling cocktail, amazing views, something to remember. A must do in Singapore.

The 'Singapore Flyer' is a great experience, giving you views far across the Marina Bay area. It is the largest giant observation wheel in Asia, bigger than the London Eye even, and a popular destination for both tourists and locals.
With 28 large, fully air-conditioned glass cabins, you enjoy a 30-minute journey that seems motion free, with plenty of opportunities to take breathtaking photos.
The cost of a ride is S$40 and well worth it.

Visit the second highest "Eye" in the world. A great interactive area begore you board your capsule for a 30-40 minute rotation. Great views from the top.

My experience with the Singapore Flyer was a mixture of expectations and slight disappointment. Renowned for offering a panoramic view of the sparkling cityscape, the flyer indeed provides a spectacular vista of the astounding skyline of Singapore. The 20-minute ride in the flyer, despite being brief, was enough to capture the city in all its grandeur. We were fortunate to have our own pod, adding a touch of luxury and privacy to the experience.
However, as alluring as this part of our adventure was, the additional Time Capsule was, unfortunately, a letdown. Marketed as a futuristic exploration of Singapore's past, present, and future, I found it to be underwhelming and not worth the additional cost. It seemed more like an artless attempt to extend the offering and left us feeling like our time and money could have been better spent elsewhere.
Singapore is indeed ingenious at crafting attractive tourist spots, but it's crucial to filter out the wheat from the chaff. An example of this is the prominence given to unimpressive attractions such as the Time Capsule. In comparison, the Flyer itself is a great draw for those looking to check out the city's dramatic panorama.
Though I would not strongly recommend the Singapore Flyer, especially with the inclusion of the Time Capsule, it can be a one-time experience for those who have never tasted the essence of Singapore from a dizzying height. With this perspective, one can arguably claim to have seen all of Singapore.

While in Merlion Park or Gardens by the bay, you can have a great view of Singapore Flyer. It’s one of the largest observatory wheels in the world.

We went for a walk on our first day and decided we would do this so we could get a feel for Singapore. We were lucky that we went mid week as it will probably be very busy on weekends. No queues and we had a pod for ourselves. It is an amazing structure and definitely worth doing.

Hi! I was wondering if they actually ask for the physical card when you go. This is I do not have my physical card, and I am worried that I cannot visit. They only say to bring the physical card AFTER payment.

Hi! I just booked a tour on the exciting Singapore Flyer! However, only after the booking they state that you need the physical card. I do not have one as I used a Revolut virtual card for safety purposes. What can I do please? I spent 55 Euros so I really want to go. Did this ever happen to anyone? Thanks!

Is bringing an infant (1 year old) advisable?
David B

Hi, with the infant I assume you will be carrying anyway. The capsules are quite big and there are seats inside. So shouldn’t be a problem.
Sometimes the capsules are almost empty, but even if it is busy the attendants are very good anyway and limit the number of people per capsule, usually no more than 10 pax if not only 6 or 8.
Just remember the trip takes about 30 minutes.
But we always recommend the flyer to our visitors, it is a good introduction to Singapore’s sights and distant districts.
