The system features 67 cabins that transit over Keppel Harbour, offering panoramic views of the city skyline and the Southern Islands. Passengers can opt for private cabin dining experiences, including sky-high meal services.

Insider tips

Use the Mount Faber Line for the longest, most scenic transit, and transfer to the Sentosa Line to reach specific island attractions.

Purchase a round-trip ticket to avoid long queues at Sentosa stations during peak evening hours.

Bring a portable fan or cooling towel, as cabins can become warm during mid-day tropical heat.

What to avoid

Do not wait until the final hour of operation to begin your trip, as queues for return journeys can be significant.
