The final barrier between you and the steep ascent towards Bukit Bendera is going to be a rough one. While you're greeted with a flash array of restaurants that appeal to the eyes and stomach, it's only a temporary distraction from the real killer—the queue. Even with our express lane ticket, the line still took around 20–30 minutes to board the tram. The clean and sanitized commodities however make up for the long waiting line. Nevertheless, it's advisable to spend an extra few bucks on a ticket if you don't want to waste your time.
Amazing View point and loads to walk about and see little animals Bear in mind, if you try to go down the stairs all the way to the entrance. It's a very steep and LONG way to go down. (approximately 2 hours to go down) and loads of Knees and ankles soreness afterwards.
