GOTO to USS: Top 5 Things for Couples to Do in Universal Studios Singapore

Because love is better with a little adrenaline.

Battle between good and evil on the world’s tallest duelling roller coasters

Let’s be real — theme parks aren't just for kids. They're actually the perfect place for couples. Whether you’re in the honeymoon phase or just need a break from adulting, Universal Studios Singapore (USS) is your ultimate playground for fun, laughs, and a little bit of hand-holding on roller coasters.

If you’re planning a day out with your person, here are the Top 5 things every couple should do at USS:

1. Scream (and Laugh) Together on Battlestar Galactica

Start with a bang — or more accurately, a scream. This dual roller coaster lets you choose between Human (red) or Cylon (blue). One’s seated, the other’s inverted. Pro tip: go for Cylon if you love loops and leg-dangling madness.

There’s nothing like a shared adrenaline rush to kick off a date. Bonus: holding hands right before the drop? Iconic.

2. Share a Giant Turkey Leg (or Any Over-the-Top Snack)

Theme park food isn’t always gourmet, but it is part of the fun. Grab a giant turkey leg or a box of popcorn to share while you wander through the park. It’s messy, it’s ridiculous, and it’s 100% a bonding moment.

Also, sharing snacks = couple goals.

3. Take the Most Extra Selfies

You’re in a place filled with movie magic — go wild with the photos! Snap a romantic shot in front of the spinning Universal Globe, pose with the Minions, or grab that moody-couple-in-Ancient-Egypt vibe.

Tip: The best light is in the late afternoon, and the Hollywood Boulevard area is perfect for that vintage, golden-hour glow.

4. Cool Off with a Water Ride (and an Excuse to Hug)

Jump on the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure for a semi-wet, semi-wild ride through dinosaur territory. You will get splashed. You might get soaked. Which means… cue the clingy, cute “I’m cold!” moments afterward.

It’s basically a rom-com scene waiting to happen.

5. End the Day with the Fireworks (or a Sunset Stroll)

If there’s a fireworks show happening that night, stick around — it’s the most magical way to end your day. If not, exit the park and take a sunset stroll down the Sentosa Boardwalk. It’s peaceful, free, and the perfect way to wind down from the chaos of roller coasters and Minion selfies.

Bonus Tip: Match Your Outfits (Just a Little)

You don’t have to go full-on cheesy, but coordinated colors or matching caps? Very cute. Very couple-y. Very Instagram.

Final Thought:

USS isn’t just a place for thrill rides — it’s a date spot, a memory maker, and a reminder that relationships should have room for play. So go ahead, ride the rides, eat the snacks, take the pics, and hold hands like it’s your first time.

Because honestly?
Love is the real ride. 🎢💛

When in Singapore, GOTO Universal Studios: Blockbuster fun on a budget — for two!

Singapore may have a reputation for being sleek and spendy, but if you're traveling as a couple and looking for big adventure on a smart budget, there's one place you have to add to your itinerary: Universal Studios Singapore.

Located on the resort island of Sentosa, this theme park is Southeast Asia’s answer to Hollywood — a one-day thrill ride through movie magic, playful nostalgia, and Insta-ready moments. But here’s the twist: you can do it all without blowing your travel fund. Here’s how.

Your Movie-Date Adventure Begins

From the moment you step into Hollywood Boulevard, you’ll feel like you’re on set. Neon lights, palm trees, and retro tunes — it’s the perfect photo op to start your day. Pro tip? Skip the souvenir shops for now — there are budget-friendly options outside the park later!

From there, explore seven themed zones, each packed with rides and attractions based on your favorite flicks. Whether you're flying through ancient tombs in The Mummy, screaming your lungs out on Battlestar Galactica, or getting soaked on the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure, there’s enough adrenaline to keep your hearts racing — and your bond stronger.

Smart Spending Tips for Couples

1. Book Tickets Online
   Snag discounts on the official website or third-party apps like Klook or KKday. You can usually save 10–20% just by booking in advance.

2. Pack Snacks & Stay Hydrated
   Outside food isn’t allowed officially, but many couples sneak in small snacks. Better yet, share meals inside the park to save. A combo meal is big enough for two — and cheaper than getting two separate dishes.

3. Split a Locker & Travel Light
   Lockers are available for rides and day storage. Share one for the day and avoid overpacking. You'll move faster and avoid extra rental fees.

Free Shows = Free Romance
Take breaks from the rides with free shows like WaterWorld — a heart-racing stunt performance that’s a great excuse to snuggle up in the splash zone. Trust us, the chemistry builds quickly when you're dodging explosions and jet skis.  

Budget-Friendly Memories

A theme park date is as much about the experience as the photos. Keep your phone charged for selfies with Minions, Transformers, and Shrek — they’re all walking around the park waiting to pose.

Want a cheap keepsake? Look out for fun, affordable merch like pins, magnets, or park-exclusive postcards under $10 SGD. Or better yet, make your memory free: find the big globe outside the entrance and take your iconic couple shot — it’s the ultimate “we were here” moment.  

The Love Doesn’t Stop There

After your day of action, take a budget-friendly stroll along Sentosa Boardwalk — it’s romantic, breezy, and lit up beautifully at night. For the cost of zero dollars, it’s one of the most peaceful ways to wind down.  

Final Take: Big Date, Little Budget

Universal Studios Singapore proves you don’t need a luxury resort or fancy dinner to create core memories with your partner. With a little planning, a dash of spontaneity, and the spirit of adventure, this blockbuster date can fit perfectly into your couple’s travel story, without breaking the bank.

So if you’re in Singapore and looking for the perfect date?

GOTO Universal Studios.
Love, laughs, and a little scream therapy await.
