5. Soar around indoors at a trampoline park

Bounce your way into the new year at AMPED, Singapore’s first trampoline park. From a slam dunk zone to a parkour wall, AMPED has a myriad of features for you to pick a fight with gravity.

You can also purchase their Covid Party packages, with the cheapest one starting at $245 for an hour of jumping and two hours of party room usage for eight people!

7. Solve escape rooms

With the additional three people you’ve roped in, you can put on your thinking caps and conquer even the most difficult escape rooms.

At around $20 per pax, consider the likes of The Escape Artist, Lost and Xcape.

From escaping zombies, breaking out from a suicide forest or outwitting the Terracotta Army, there’s definitely something to satiate the thrill-seekers in your friend group.

10. Explore lesser-known parts of Sentosa Island

If you live in Singapore, you’re definitely no stranger to The State of Fun. However, there are many hidden gems on the island that few have discovered.

You can explore the off the beaten track Imbiah Trail and take Insta-worthy shots. Remember to be on the lookout for the many interesting structures along the way!

11. Spend a night at a boutique hotel

There’s nothing short of an exciting staycay you can enjoy with your friends at the myriad of boutique hotels in Singapore.
