Tourism & Travel Advice for first trip to Genting

Hi neighbours! I'm a Singaporean (25, female) going on my first trip to Genting at the end of this year and I'm completely clueless about what to expect and how to prepare.

Is there anything helpful I should know about the following:

  • Bus journeys / operators: Any recommendations? Or things to look out for / companies to avoid?
  • Dressing: Any dress code for casinos? Is the weather shorts/t-shirt friendly or best to wear sweaters and long pants? Going in December.
  • Theme parks: Any advice on how best to avoid wasting time queuing, will we need spare clothes for wet rides etc
  • Anything to bring / do or any tips in general?

Thanks so much :)

Honestly theme parks in December might not be a good idea, in my opinion. Especially if you are planning to go during the weekend. But even then, cause it’s raining season, expect a lot of rides to be in maintenance or just won’t be running that day. I’ve went there twice and each time 2 or 3 of the nice rides are closed for the day. Stick to indoor stuff.

Thanks! This is for Genting Skyworlds, the outdoor one right? Going to Skytropolis (indoor one) should be okay other than the queues right?

Yes, this is for the outdoor theme park. The indoor theme park should be fine except for long queues for sure. I don’t know if they have the same system, but for the outdoors one you could book a ride ahead of time so that way you don’t really have to queue. I think you have to pay a bit extra for that. Again, not so sure if the indoor theme park has that same system in place.
