Things to do in Singapore

Explore Singapore’s hippest neighbourhoods

Discover Tiong Bahru, Singapore’s oldest and now hippest neighborhood, where trendy cafes, art galleries and boutiques fill charming 1930s Art Deco buildings. Stroll through its streets, then dive into the city’s celebrated hawker culture. Sample essential dishes like laksa, chilli crab and Hainanese chicken rice at renowned food centres such as Lau Pa Sat, Old Airport Road and Maxwell Food Centre, truly capturing the heart of local cuisine.

Wild encounters, day and night

Discover the full majesty of the Mandai Wildlife Reserve with an unforgettable Night Safari. Traverse the park by foot or tram for a rare glimpse into the secret lives of nocturnal animals. Then, trade the evening for the dawn at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore’s first ASEAN Heritage Park. This picturesque haven is a must-see for nature lovers, offering a chance to spot migratory birds, crocodiles, and otters in their natural mangrove habitats.

Unlock the timeless charm of Singapore’s quays

In its heyday as a fishing village, Singapore’s three quays served as the centre of commerce. Today, the quays are still the pulsing heart of the city, now serving as premier dining and nightlife destinations. For those seeking a night out, Clarke Quay and Boat Quay are the liveliest with sports bars and nightclubs drawing crowds of merrymakers. Robertson Quay offers a more laidback ambience, with alfresco restaurants perfect for catching up with loved ones over dinner.

Tour the city’s ethnic enclaves

Singapore’s rich tapestry of cultures comes to life in communities across the city. In Kampong Glam, start at the majestic golden-domed Sultan Mosque before visiting the famed Haji Lane, known for its eclectic boutiques, and Arab Street for silks, batiks and traditional Malay and Muslim goods. Don’t stop there – visit Little India, Chinatown and Katong for an authentic taste of the city’s multifaceted heritage. 

Seaside escape, just minutes away

Ready for a day by the sea? Head to Sentosa, Singapore’s island playground. With endless options for dining, shopping and entertainment, Sentosa has everything you need for the perfect coastal escape. Dive into a spectacular underwater world at S.E.A. Aquarium, home to over 100,000 marine creatures. Prefer to stay above water? Kick back at a stylish beach club with a refreshing drink. 

Discover the wonders of the Garden City

Escape the urban rush and find serenity in nature. Marvel at the surreal beauty of Gardens by the Bay, where you can step back in time at the Jurassic Park experience in the Cloud Forest. Be sure to traverse the undulating Henderson Waves pedestrian bridge along the Southern Ridges for dazzling views above the forest.

Uncover the arts and culture of the Lion City

At the National Gallery, discover over 9,000 pieces of modern Southeast Asian art, alongside rotating exhibitions and large-scale installations that bring culture and history together. Step into the Gillman Barracks, a former colonial military camp transformed into a contemporary arts centre, where you can soak in Singapore’s distinctive art scene at galleries and cafés.

Experience the thrills

For speed lovers and thrill seekers, Singapore is a playground of excitement. Ignite your adventurous spirit and race freely on the karting track; take on the giant swing and bungee jump at Skypark Sentosa for heart-pounding moments; then soar across jungle, beach, and sea on the MegaZip – a truly adrenaline-charged journey.

Embark on magical adventures
