Getting to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand using MRT and Sentosa Express
Step 1: Select a hotel right beside an MRT Station.
When you are planning a trip to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand be sure to maximize the use of public transportation along the way. We have written this guide with the assumption that you are not staying on Sentosa Island. Therefore, staying close to an MRT station helps sets the stage for an efficient and affordable itinerary in Singapore.
First, focus on booking a room within 500 meters or less from a station. You can then quickly access the system and get to multiple destinations faster. Remember, Singapore gets super hot!
Here are two popular hotels for guests who want direct access to MRT stations:
Fairmont Singapore (8.9/10 Review Score) (Esplanade Station)
The Capitol Kempinski Hotel Singapore (9.3/10 Review Score) (City Hall Station)
Staying at either one of these ensures quick access to transportation on your way to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand.
Step 2: Buy an MRT Ticket to HarbourFront Station
Getting to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand using public transportation is really straightforward with some basic planning.
Your first step should be riding the MRT to HarbourFront Station.
When you access the first MRT station, you will quickly have to decide what kind of ticket you plan on using for your trip.
At the time of writing there are three different types of MRT tickets that can be used:
- Single journey trip tickets
- Stored value cards
- Singapore Tourist Passes
The type of MRT ticket you use to reach Sentosa 4D AdventureLand really comes down to the following questions:
How long are you in the city? And….
How frequently do you plan on using the MRT and bus network?
Single journey tickets, for instance, are ideal for tourists that are not going to use public transportation a lot. You can simply purchase these at ticketing machines in each station.
These are the most expensive form of ticket per trip, However, you are not obligated to use transportation extensively if you only get one every time you use the system.
Stored value cards can be purchased once and then you can top them up with cash and simply tap to enter and exit each station. They are very popular with Singaporeans and long-term visitors to the city. Similarly, the cost per trip is less than a single journey ticket.
Staying 1-3 Days???
Singapore Tourist Passes are ideal for ‘busy travellers’. If you plan on sightseeing a lot this is definitely the best option for saving money. However, if you do not plan on seeing a lot of different attractions in Singapore then you might want to just get a stored-value card or purchase single journey tickets throughout your trip in the city.

Regardless of what kind of tickets you use, make your way to HarbourFront Station first. This is the first step to getting to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand.
Step 3: Make your way to HarbourFront Station
Once you have your ticket sort, catch the next train to HarbourFront Station. It is on the North-East Line (represented in purple colour on Singapore’s train map).
Listen closely for verbal announcements on the train. The station before Harbourfront is Outram Park. When you hear “Outram Park” station being announced, you might as well start getting closer to one of the exits because you will be getting off at the next stop.
Step 4: Alight at HarbourFront and transfer to the Sentosa Express Monorail Station.
Sentosa 4D AdventureLand cannot be directly accessed using only the MRT network.
You have to transfer to the Sentosa Express Monorail Station which is located in VivoCity.
Here are the directions to get to the correct ticketing office:
To use the Sentosa Express you must first take Exit B to get out at HarbourFront Station.
Afterwards, walk to VivoCity shopping mall. Follow the relevant signs to the third floor of the mall.
Sentosa Express Monorail Station is located on the third floor of the mall (Lobby L/ Level 3).
Usually, there are people transferring from the MRT to Sentosa Express here, so it should be a clear transfer. And, if it isn’t just ask someone!
Step 5: Buy a Sentosa Express ticket to Beach Station and take the train.
While in the office, buy a Sentosa Express train ticket to Beach Station.
Alternatively, you can also use your EZ link (stored value card).
Expect this ride only to take a few minutes. It will be the last stop!
Important Consideration: Technically, you could get off at Imbiah Station and walk to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand. But, most people prefer taking a bus from Beach Station instead.
Step 6: Alight at Beach Station and Transfer to Bus A.
Once you are off the Sentosa Express Beach Station, transfer to Bus A.
Step 7: Ride Bus A to Imbiah Lookout Bus-Stop.
Enjoy the short bus ride on Bus A to Imbiah Lookout bus stop.
Step 8: Walk from Imbiah Lookout Bus-Stop to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand.
The walk from Imbiah Lookout Bus-Stop to Sentosa 4D AdventureLand is short and sweet. Expect it to take only 1 minute to walk to the entrance of Sentosa 4D AdventureLand.
And there you are!
