Who knew that a very luxurious hotel that pampers you at night is the very same hotel that could get your heart pumping through out the day? The Crown Regency Hotel & Towers is the tallest hotel tower in the Philippines. Aside from the hotel’s trademark warm hospitality, it has placed itself on the tourism map by bringing extreme adventures to thrill-seeking tourists: the Sky Experience.
Two heart-stopping adventures make up the Sky Experience: the Edge Coaster and the Sky Walk Extreme. The Edge Coaster is located on the 38th floor of the building, giving you a 360-degree view of the city. You are strapped on a coaster that goes around the edge of the Crown Regency Hotel and tilts at 55 degrees. The coaster is equipped with joysticks so that the riders can control the degree of tilting to their heart’s satisfaction. That’s taking the idiom “hanging on the edge” quite literally, isn’t it? Another extreme adventure is the Sky Walk Extreme, located a floor lower from the Edge Coaster. Sky Walkers are required to don jumpsuits then are strapped to harnesses that are connected to the Walk, a structure that can hold up to 5,000 pounds of solid weight. The Sky Walk Extreme is a 15-minute walk around the edge of the 37th floor of the building. Imagine the very cold breeze against your face, the magnificent view of Cebu before you as you are dangled from the country’s highest hotel building!
Adrenaline junkies should visit Cebu City even for this attraction alone. It promises an experience of its own kind.
