The pickup wasn't where we were instructed, it was a shame that the driver never pointed out any places of interest along the trip as was advertised. It was still a great experience and many other tourists we met were friendly and made the trip more fun”

15.Genting Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park Ticket

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 12 reviews · from $17

Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park gives you a full day of weather-protected fun in Genting Highlands, with more than 20 rides across Family, Adventure, and Thrill zones. Ride the Royal Carousel, Spin Crazy, Sky Towers, Super Glider, and more. Your one-day pass includes unlimited rides, but several nearby attractions cost extra.

“In general, it is of course very impressive to experience an amusement park in a mall. Nevertheless, we did not like it. Most of the attractions were not in operation and the other part had additional costs. All in all, we could maybe make 5 trips. I would recommend, if you want to visit this spot (it would be worth seeing), not to plan too much time for it and possibly only pay for the attractions you want to do on site. This is also possible and saves you money. The ticket is not worth it at all.”
