Thousands flock to Universal Studios for new Madagascar ride
Thousands flocked to Universal Studios Singapore at Resorts World Sentosa on Monday morning for a feel of its newly-opened ride, Madagascar: A Crate Adventure.
Even if you've never seen the animated movie by DreamWorks, the nine-minute ride - one of the longest rides in Universal Studios Singapore - promises to be a blast for riders, especially the younger ones.
"Amazing! It's exciting, especially for the kids, they can see all the characters in the Madagascar movie," said one guest.
"We thought it was a little bit tame. But the music was fabulous and the characters were very nicely done," said another.
"The nice thing about Madagascar: A Crate Adventure is that it really is a ride that's available for three generations - from kids to adults to grandparents. Everyone can ride it, so it's a great addition to Universal Studios Singapore," said John Hallenbeck, VP of Park Operations, Universal Studios Singapore.
The ride took about three years to conceptualise and create.
"Water rides are the most difficult attractions to create because water is fluid and unpredictable, whereas roller coasters and other mechanical type rides are easy to engineer," said Kevin Barbee, executive designer, Universal Studios Singapore, Resorts World Sentosa.
With this new launch, organisers now say it's all systems go for the grand opening of Universal Studios Singapore on May 28.
