Hotel guests taking a dip at the world's highest outdoor pool
will now be spared having visitors lingering there and gawking at
them.
Marina Bay Sands (MBS) integrated resort will provide optional
guided tours for non-hotel guests that include just a brief stop at
the pool atop its 57th-storey SkyPark.
From Monday, there will be three such tours daily, with 50
people on each 15-minute tour. Up to 2,750 people visit the
SkyPark's observation deck daily. The entry fee is $20 for an
adult. Those who do not sign up for the free tours will not get to
see the 150m swimming pool.
Visitors can sign up for the tours - held at 11am, 2pm and 8pm
daily - at the ticket counter. Until now, non-hotel guests who pay
to go up to the SkyPark can - on weekdays - linger at a portion of
the pool. But hotel guests had complained of the crowds and a lack
of privacy.
