List of Attractions in Universal Studios Singapore and My Recommendations

Please share this article if you think it's awesome!

There so many rides, shows, and street performance in Universal Studios Singapore. And there are so little time to explore the park.

If you want to know how to maximize your visit to USS, read my guides here.

One of my most important tips in that guide is to decide what attractions you want to visit before you actually visit Universal Studios Singapore. By doing advance research, you can decide which one to prioritize and which one to let go.

A very common question that people asked me in the past, “Are the rides free in Universal Studios Singapore?” Yes, all of the rides and shows are included in the admission ticket, so you can enjoy them as many times as you want. 

The only additional fees you might pay is the Express Pass, which allows you to get faster access the famous rides. This Express Pass is optional. You don’t have to buy if you don’t want to. 

Alright, here is the full list of attractions in Universal Studios Singapore (USS). Kids-friendly attractions are marked with “For Kids.” My personal favorites are marked with “Recommended.”

PS: Some of the rides, shows & street performances may be temporarily suspended. Check USS website or app for details.

Looking for ideas on what to do in Singapore? Here’s my guide on the best things to do in Singapore.

List of Rides in Universal Studios Singapore

1. New York: Lights, Camera, Action! (Recommended)

Lights, Camera, Action! is a production studio where you can experience being part of a movie set. There is a hurricane scene, so you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of a hurricane. Tips: you may get wet if you stand too near to the set, so do avoid getting too near.

2. New York: Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase [For kids]

This kid-friendly ride brings you through a tunnel as you join Elmo and friends chase Macaroni. All you have to do is just sit in a carrier.

3. Sci Fi: TRANSFORMERS The Ride: The Ultimate 3D Battle

Imagine this, you are sitting in a Transformer robot and you’re fighting against the forces of the evil. Boys would love this, especially because the 3D effect makes the experience almost real.

But for me, I got dizziness and severe motion sickness, so I don’t really like it.

4. Sci Fi: Accelerator

Accelerator is a spinning ride. If you’re the type of person who is prone to motion sickness, avoid this ride. But, if you aren’t, you might like this.

5. Sci Fi: Battlestar Galactica: HUMAN vs. CYLON (Recommended)

Human is the red roller coaster, while Cylon is the blue one. Both are high speed and equally popular, so do try both.

Basically Human (Red) is a typical rollercoaster where you sit in a train-like vehicle. There’s no 360-degree turn in Human, the thrill is in the speed.

Meanwhile, Cylon (Blue) is a rollercoaster where the seats are suspended from the overhead track, hence your feet will be dangling throughout the ride. There are more than one 360 degree turns, so it’s 10x more scary than Human.

Loose items are not allowed on the rides. You can store your loose items in the locker beside Human. The locker is free for storage up to certain time limit. If you wear slipper, you’ll be asked to remove your slipper prior to being seated.

6. Ancient Egypt: Revenge of the Mummy (Recommended)

Revenge of the Mummy is a very popular ride because it’s just different from usual rollercoaster. It is an indoor, high speed roller coaster in total darkness! Backward motion is included, too! I won’t spill too much. You just have to ride this!

7. Ancient Egypt: Treasure Hunters [For Kids]

Treasure Hunters is perfect for young kids who prefer calm rides. Basically, you sit in a car and drive around a pool/lake at slow speed.

8. The Lost World: Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure (Recommended)

This thrill ride is perfect for adrenaline seeker. River rafting alone is quite challenging. This ride goes beyond just river rafting.

It is river rafting with strong current and a slide!

You will get wet, but the level of wetness vary for each individual. Some people will get super wet, while others will get just a little wet. To avoid getting wet, you can wear plastic raincoat or bring additional clothes. If you’re wearing shoes, you can consider changing it to slipper/sandal for this ride, or bring a plastic bag and wrap your feet in it. If you forget to bring a raincoat, you can buy it from the vending machine that’s available at the queue area.

Tips: you can bring your belongings on boat or keep them in lockers, but the lockers at Rapids Adventure are not free so if you want to save money, keep your stuff at Mummy’s lockers.

9. The Lost World: Canopy Flyer (Recommended)

Honestly, I kinda like Canopy Flyer. Don’t be fooled by the colorful seats thinking that it is a slow ride. Actually, Canopy Flyer this colorful suspended flying vehicle is pretty fast. It is less scary than a rollercoaster, but it has the adrenaline element.

As you can see from the picture below, there are 4 seats. 2 seats are facing the front, while the other 2 seats are facing the back. If you’re wearing slippers, you’ll be asked to take them off prior to being seated.

10. The Lost World: Dino-Soarin’ [For Kids] 

Dino-Soarin’ is a classic ride where young kids sit in a flying vehicle that goes round and round.

11. The Lost World: Amber Rock Climb

So, you fancy rock climbing? The Amber Rock Climb is a great place for beginners to try rock climbing. Don’t worry if you don’t have wall climbing license or friends to belay you. The USS staffs are full-time belayer here.

15. Far Far Away: Enchanted Airways (Recommended)

I really recommend Enchanted Airways, a high speed roller coaster in Far Far away. It is smaller compared to Human & Cylon in scale and speed, but nonetheless, it’s quite terrifying.

16. Madagascar: King Julien’s Beach Party-Go-Round [For Kids]

A theme park isn’t complete without a carousel!

Hi Priya. No, you don't need to buy another ticket for rides. All rides are included in the main admission ticket. However, during peak season, the queue will be long. So if you don't like to queue, you can purchase the Express Pass.
