Highlight of Tour: Cable car, Underwater World and Dolphin Lagoon, Merlion Tower & Wings of Time
We set off to Mount Faber to start our tour with the Cable Car ride into Sentosa.
The legendary Merlion is a mythical creature with a lion’s head and a fish’s body – as a guardian of prosperity which personifies Singapore’s history as an important seaport. The lion head depicts the folklore of Prince Sang Nila Utama’s discovery of lion (singa) and City (pura) while the fish tail symbolises the fishing village of ‘Temasek’, also known as ‘sea-town’ in Javanese. Today, the majestic Merlion is a Singapore icon attracting visitors from all around the world.
If you walk past some of the significant sites in the Lion City, you’ll meet more than one Merlion. There’s the 8.6-metre porcelain statue at Merlion Park, another 2-metre cub porcelain statue right behind it, a 3-metre polymarble statue at Tourism Court as well as another one of the same height on Mount Faber. Last but definitely not least, there’s the majestic 37-metre-tall concrete Merlion on Sentosa Island.
Unlike its predecessor by the Esplanade, Sentosa Merlion distinguishes itself as the only Merlion in Singapore where you can discover the urban myth and uncover treasure within its attraction trail.
We then proceed to the Dolphin Lagoon for the “Meet the Dolphins and Fur Seals session” where the residents of Dolphin Lagoon – the adorable fur seals perform alongside the pink dolphins. They’ll gamely shake hands and pose for photos afterwards. Be enchanted by the performances of these two mammals. A visit to the Underwater World then will thrill you by unique encounters with marine animals. Here the 'voyage to the bottom of the sea' begins at the water’s edge, with shallow rock turtle and ray pools. Be greeted next by brightly colored corals and exotic ocean dwellers (including moray eels, sea dragons and jelly fishes) before you embark on a spectacular underwater journey through the 83-metre-long moving travelator with a tunnel housing the majestic rays, fearsome sharks, great shoals of other fishes and a host of other creatures that inhabit the ocean depths.
We then visit the Wings of Time before ending our tour. Spanning several exotic vistas and across the fabric of time, Wings Of Time is a multi-sensory extravaganza that tells an epic tale of courage, mystery and magic brought to you an internationally acclaimed team.
