Singapore - Chillin’ in the Bay

The Art Zoo theme at the Float @ Marina Bay offers an interactive adventure through 11 blow-up art installations including a giraffe maze, a whale’s belly and a giant spider. Next door is the Fantastical World of eco.me offering many sustainability themed activities around The Promontory @ Marina Bay.
