Singapore Flyer : info and guided tour

Overview of Singapore Flyer

The Singapore Flyer is an iconic observation wheel in Singapore, located on the Marina Bay waterfront at 30 Raffles Ave. It offers panoramic views of the city center, the bay and, on a clear day, part of the Malaysian coastline and nearby islands. It is one of the city’s best-known attractions.

Opened in 2008, it was for a long time among the tallest Ferris wheels in the world. Its modern structure rises to around 165 meters and was designed to accommodate large glass-enclosed capsules. The site is part of Marina Bay’s contemporary urban landscape, where glass towers, promenades and cultural spaces meet.

The Singapore Flyer is famous for its open views of major Singapore landmarks such as Marina Bay Sands, the business district and the waterfront. The slow rotation lets visitors take in the city in detail, from the water to the skyline. The experience is appealing for both its panorama and the wheel’s instantly recognizable silhouette.

Discover Temasek with a private guide

A private guide can help place the Singapore Flyer in the recent history of Marina Bay and explain what you can see from the capsules. They provide a more detailed look at the architecture, the urban landmarks and the role this observation wheel plays in Singapore’s skyline, with explanations adapted to the pace of your visit.
