For a taste of Singapore’s multicultural charm, visit Kampong Glam, the Muslim quarter of the city, along with Little India and Chinatown.
If you’re a thrill-seeker or have children, venture on a day trip to Sentosa Island. With theme parks such as Universal Studios, and stunning palm-lined beaches – it’s a fantastic recreational destination.
A holiday to Singapore would not be complete without a glimpse of the two ‘merlions’ in Merlion Park. These 8-metre-tall statues of, you guessed it, half-lion half-fish creatures are the mascots of Singapore.

If you are inclined to take it easy on holiday, take a leisurely stroll through the iconic Singapore Botanic Gardens. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is known for its rich variety of tropical flora, stunning lakes, and tranquil setting.
To view Singapore from the water, sit back and relax on a boat tour down the Singapore River. Some tours are in amphibious cars which include sightseeing on the road before the vehicle converts into a boat for the rest of the journey.
Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of one of Singapore’s renowned heritage hotels, some dating as far back as the 19th century. Here, you’ll get a taste of luxury, service and style from a bygone era.

Start your day with a Singaporean breakfast of kaya toast (toast with butter and coconut jam) and kopi (coffee). End it with a plate of Singapore chilli crab – a well-known dish synonymous with the city’s gastronomic heritage.
Shopping in Singapore
Shopping in Singapore is an activity as diverse and vibrant as the city itself, with all kind of establishments from high-end shops to bustling street markets. It is a shopper’s haven, with many of the malls bursting with international department stores and designer boutiques for you to spend your remaining Singapore Dollars.
