Trans Studio Bandung November 2012

Was sick after came back from Bandung, was down with flu than terrible cough. Anyway here the update on the Trans Studio at Bandung.

Was there on 10th Nov (Sat) we reach there around 2.pm Indo time. Before I came here I read up alot of reviews  and do alot of research and my main purpose is to bring my daughter here to play and enjoy but it turn out to be a very disappointing trip. Thumb down

When we reach at the ticketing counter I was seriously surprise because there is totally no queue but we still went ahead to get the VIP ticket which cost 400,000 rupiah as I read from the reviews stating that weekend are suppose to be very crowded. We had a hard time communicating with them is like a chicken talking to a duck!!!  They can't really speak basic English thou my husband know a little of their language but is totally different and very hard to capture what they are saying. Is bahasa not melayu, really vomit blood!

When we enter the theme park I totally regret buying VIP ticket there was no crowd! Unlike the review and the blog I went to read it was totally opposite!! And to those who want to grab some food my advice is have it before you enter the theme park. There is food junction outside the theme park at the same level and even A&W. If I knew earlier I won't eat their pathetic fried chicken meal!



After filling our stomach we went to walk around and the only thing my 8 years old girl can enjoy is the dragon ride, the indoor playground, the water ride and the car ride that all! The rest require at least 135cm and I doubt a 9 years old child would dare for their scary rides which is like 5 level that high. Another thing is their map only comes in Malay and no English language and same goes to all their shows.


Me and my husband never tried this as it is simply too scary and dizzy and we don't wish to throw out our food after the ride so we skip it lol


One thing about VIP is like a 'short cut' to the rides with many people stares at you but the bad of having VIP ticket is you might not even get the chance of enjoying that short cut at times. We went for the water rides using our VIP, end up we got to squeeze into other people queue and that is their so called VIP? Horrible!! Genting theme park is way better than here, I personally feel that their theme park is only meant for their local people and not tourist like us.

Inside here is where the indoor playground is, which my girl enjoy and we can safely go walked around and went back to fetch her.







Their shows and their parade, my personal suggestion is don't waste your time coming here. The rides are very limited and if it rains the roller coaster will be closed as the roller coaster is outdoor but all other rides are indoor and always remember to get a driver to drive you around as it is not easy to get a cab in Bandung!
