The locals in Singapore must really be having a hard time focusing on their daily duties and not being distracted by the plethora of entertainment opportunities that are available around every corner of the tiny island. From theme parks to night forests, giant wheels on reclaimed land to fine dining experiences, Singapore is not just a destination for MICE tourism, it is a one stop shop for the whole family to do business, rewind, relax, shop or learn.
Forest Adventure Singapore is another feather in Singapore’s cap and is sought after by schools to help children build confidence, by corporate bodies to build team spirit amongst employees and parents who want to give their kids the time of their life. The Kid’s Course is a simpler and safer route which is custom made with the needs and fears of little children kept in mind and the little ones are attached to an ongoing safety line until they complete all 16 adventures lined up for them, so parents can heave a sigh of relief. The Grand Course which is designed for adults is a more adventurous, adrenaline pumping route. Located along the Bedok Reservoir, the grounds are unharmed by human intervention.
The Grand Course includes aerial roping above water, aerial roping between trees and climbing trees armed with a helmet and a harness. It will be an entire day filled with movements a good twenty feet above the ground, where the instructors will watch from below to ensure you do not get into harm’s way. The participants are educated on the use of the safety equipment and how to watch out for oneself. For some the most adventurous is the swinging between trees, for others it is the journey along the 200m long zip line, for a few others it is crossing the bridge built from bamboo.
There are a number of hotels in Singapore to choose from, so even during the peak seasons there should be at least one or two Singapore hotels that you can squeeze into with the family or group of friends. However, if you are booking early, keep the Millennium & Copthorne Hotels Singapore foremost in mind.
