Anytime

Morning

Head off to the magnificent Gardens by the Bay where 1.5 million plants from all over the world adorn iconic structures. Wander down scenic walking trails, explore two plant-filled domes and marvel at the Supertree Grove. Then its a short hop away to Kampong Glam, the city's Muslim quarter with its golden domed mosque and narrow Arabic streets bustling with cafes and fabric shops just waiting for you to explore.

Afternoon

For a breath of fresh air, travel over to East Coast Park where the outdoor Hawker centre is a great place to get satay and sticky rice for lunch and have a stroll on the beach before setting off to Orchard Road for some retail therapy, or why not explore China Town and Little India for more architectural and cultural gems.

Evening

Make your way to the Marina Bay Sands hotel just before sunset, at around 6pm. Grab a cocktail and admire the sweeping 360 degree views across the bay as the sun goes down. Afterward, take an evening stroll around Marina Bay, or even a boat trip. Be sure to check out the famous Merlion, a mythical creature and emblem of Singapore, half mermaid, half lion. Then head to Raffles Hotel for a Singapore Sling at the Long Bar, before heading out for chilli crab or a delicious Laksa.
