Universal Studio Singapore (by MRT from Kranji)

Alright. Let's continue. What's the use of coming to Singapore if not going to USS. OK fine, the whole Sentosa is a cool place but I only root for USS. So, here's how you go to USS via MRT from Kranji.

Erks..if I remember la how to get to the place. Three (3) month is a looooooooong time for my rusty memory. Alright...here goes nothing.

First step, go to Kranji MRT Station. This is Kranji MRT Station.

When you reach Kranji, you will see this signage. Follow the arrow. Senang saja kannnn..

Then, you will see ...

this..if this is your first time, go to the passenger service and they will gladly explain the route that you  need to take and how much it cost.

Second step, buy a ticket to Harbour Front.  Do not buy a return ticket if you wish to explore the Lion City after USS. One way ticket cost SGD2.70.


This is Kranji MRT Station. Once you have paid for your ticket at the ticketing machine, head to Jurong East's (North South Train - Red Line) side of the train. If you are familiar with KL LRT / Monorail services, you will have no difficulty in understanding the route. It's simpler than KL.



If you see this, you are on the right track. Now, sit and wait for MRT. Don't worry if you missed the earlier train..because..

you won't have to wait forever for the next MRT.

Got the map for the lady at the passenger counter and that is our ticket to Harbour Front.

Third step, alight the train at Outram Park and go to Harbour Front (purple line).

You have now reach your destination. Harbour Front! Congrats. You are almost almost almost almost there (USS).  The station is connected to Vivo City (macam KLCC LRT station maaa).

The ticketing machine at Harbour Front.

Alright. You are now at Vivo  City. Fourth step, go to Vivo City Level 3 and take the monorail. Monorail ticket cost SG4, for the whole day. Up down in out use lar that ticket. No extra charges. You can also use Sentosa Boardwalk but I didn't because, I oso dono why lar ho.. hahahha.

rs

Fifth step, go to Sentosa Station (Level 3, Vivo City) and take a train to Waterfront Station. In the next 4 minutes (or so) you will reach USS.

rs

Almost. Any minute now.

rs

Hooray!! Go down and walk for a bit and... you will see..

the uber famous USS globe! This is on a weekday so visitors are arek-arek unlike the weekend, i think you need to wait for hours to get a photo here, I mean..of course you want to take a photo at this revolving globe and wait for UNIVERSAL "word" in full. So you can take your time and click click here.

So, let's recap:

(1) Go to Kranji MRT.
(2) Buy ticket to Harbourfront
(3) Alight train at Outram Park
(4) Reach Harbourfront
(5) Go to Vivo City Level 3
(6) Buy monorail ticket to Waterfront Station

OK, settle. Easy peasy. 

Now, you are ready for some fun!
