It's tough, mate. Security's tight. Forget secret passages – those are firmly in the realm of fantasy. Your best bet is probably trying to book a corporate hospitality package well in advance.

Even then, you'll only catch glimpses. It’s a seriously exclusive environment.

Nope, access to the Marina Bay Sands infinity pool is strictly for hotel guests only. Those pricey day passes are unfortunately not scams, they're just... exorbitant.
