In contrast, SplashMania is located near Dengkil, which is outside the city making it difficult to reach without a 🚗car.

Both have similar types of slides and rides, but there are some that Sunway Lagoon has and SplashMania doesn’t and vice versa. As for the condition, it goes without saying that SplashMania’s slides and rides are new and probably still have that factory smell. However, Sunway Lagoon’s slides are longer in length on average compared to those in SplashMania.

It also goes without saying that Sunway Lagoon is more crowded, and visitors may find themselves waiting for long periods for their turn.

As for SplashMania, they still need to improve their queue management because sometimes there will be some annoying people (I wish their french fries are always soggy) who will cross to the next lane for another slide just because they changed their mind at the last minute. This becomes more of an issue when they cross over and cut the queue from a shorter lane to a long lane.

 

Ticket Prices and Packages
