A’ Famosa Water Theme Park 28 May 2014

DSC00212 We drove to Melaka not really early as well. This is the first time our whole family went to A’ Famosa Water Theme Park at Alor Gajah. A’ Famosa is more than the Water Theme Park, it has the Safari Wonderland and the Old West too.

Safari Wonderland like its name too, is a park with chanting animals. The Old West is only started from 6pm onwards, and feature a lot of old western rustic buildings, antiques, cowboys and cowgirls, red Indians, country songs and stunt shows.

Both Daddy and Mummy feels we just go for the Water Theme Park is sufficient already, as we do not have much time to go for the Safari Wonderland at one single day.

DSC00245The Old West we are not so keen of going in as well, as we are not planning to stay at the A’ Famosa Resort Hotel, or their Condotel, no point we waited for 6pm for the program. So, we just go for the Water Theme Park only.

We reached there almost 10am and we parked our car at a cosy parking spot. Then, we were queuing to buy the entrance ticket.

Due to school holidays, there were huge crowds and we can see school students tour group too. We went in, looked for the lockers place, change our clothes into swimming attire. Then we going to have some fun there!

DSC00236For kids, there is Arabian Village. Taste the different! Enjoy the endless fun and laughter with your children at this Arabian-style water playground.

Kids will love the adventures that are just their size in this children’s water play area. The Kids’ Adventure Pool with their mini slides, water sprays and a water playground are always the kids’ favourites.

Slow down your step, walking on the white sand with barefoot, lay down yourself on sand bath chair will be the greatest relax & release feeling from all the hassle at the Sandy Beach.

DSC00228Dressed up your beachwear and enjoy surfing away from the beach. Every time the sirens wail, a wave heads toward the shore, the shrieks of excitement from the Wave Pool will be heard.

For something less strenuous, take a dip in one of the world’s longest Lazy River. Relax on a tube ride as the journey takes around the water theme park easily.

There is two enclosed slides that catapult riders into pitch black spirals of darkness. You don’t know which way you’re turning next, and you don’t see a thing until you hit the final splashdown at the Inner Tube Slides!

DSC00240Imagine the fun you and your family members will have while sliding down the loops and twists on a giant tube at Family Raft Ride.

This was fun but for Annabelle is too frightened to her. She refused to go down with us. I have to pick her up after 3 of us went down the slide.

Hold on to your heart as you race down this monster, the two towering High Speed Slides is the landmark of A’ Famosa Water World.

These seven-storey slides provide a heart-stopping, yet breathtaking high velocity joyride as you can hurtle down and reach the ground in just a few seconds!

DSC00216 Are you brave enough to try this Body Slide? Open and enclosed configurations or a combination of both create a true fun experience. The Body Slide complex offers a variety of twists turns and drops suitable for guests of all ages.

Splash “Aqua Challenge” brings the concept of extreme sports with different obstacles that is build to challenge ones physical and mental strength. The first of its kind in Malaysia, you have to climb, jump, run, and swing to clear all the obstacles and head to success.

Our entrance fees were come with 1 free lunch. Thus, after playing water we went and hunt for our food. We claimed our free lunch at the Side Walk Café.

DSC00225It is a one-stop convenience café at A’ Famosa Water World. Its lush surroundings of water features and greens provide calm, yet a soothing ambience. Side Walk Café is a perfect eatery outlet to revive after a thrilling day at the splashing water world.

Other than that, there are Bistro - If you think to taste our simple & Hawker style food such as Mamak , Nyonya , Fried, or Indian Food, Bistro will be your Selection.

Pavilion - Rushing time to continue your water slide or only little time to stop and rest, this is the place where you can get ‘convenient food’ like chicken burgers, nugget and hotdogs.

DSC00248Kiosk – which serve some great snacks to go, Water World Kiosk will keep you going with their servings of nugget, popcorn, waffles, sweet corn in a cup and various cold and hot beverages.

Lastly Local Food Court - Hungry and the thirsty after playing all water games, local delights like chicken rice, sizzling for a quick bite will be one of your choice selections.

We were there almost 3 hours, then we get changed and out for their Sports and Recreation session, whereby both children Issac and Annabelle were playing the Archery game.

DSC00253There were much more, such as Target Shooting, Horse Carriage, Paddle Boat, Cycling, Pony Ride, etc. Mixture of extreme sports and leisure sports.

This time around, we can spent more time to play more at the Water Theme Park, but most of the water slides Annabelle was so scared and do not want to play, if not we can spend much time there.

Later in the afternoon, we left to Melaka to check in to our Layang Layang Guest House near the Jonker Street area.
