Singapore Holidays
A collision of culture and otherworldly skylines awaits in Singapore.
Holidays in Singapore
Sitting at the crossroads of Asia, Singapore is a melting pot of cultures, cuisines, and contrasts waiting to be explored. From towering skyscrapers and lush green spaces to vibrant street markets and historic neighbourhoods, this dynamic city-state offers a wealth of experiences for travellers of all tastes and interests.
When is the best time to visit? Singapore can be enjoyed year-round. But we think the best time to visit is from February to April when the weather is dry and there are numerous festivals to enjoy including Chinese New Year and Holi. Why not mix your sunshine escape with an enriching experience of vibrant celebrations?
Where is the best place to stay in Singapore? A city-state with fantastic public transport links, no matter where you stay, you’ll be able to effortlessly explore Singapore. However, for first-time visitors, we recommend staying in the Marina Bay sands area. Located in the centre of the city, Marina Bay overlaps with the Central Business District, the Civic Quarter, and trendy Clarke Quay, so you’re never far from the action.

Head to one of Singapore's oldest and most colourful neighbourhoods- China Town. Visit the historic Thian Hock Keng Temple, a stunning example of Chinese architecture and craftsmanship, or sample authentic street food favourites.

Wander through the lush greenery of the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest, home to exotic plants and breathtaking indoor waterfalls. Don't miss the chance to stroll along the elevated walkway of the OCBC Skyway for panoramic views of the gardens and city skyline.
Sentosa Island
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and retreat to Sentosa Island, a tropical playground offering endless entertainment and relaxation options. Lounge on pristine beaches, take a dip in crystal-clear waters or embark on thrilling adventures at attractions like Universal Studios Singapore, S.E.A. Aquarium, and Adventure Cove Waterpark. Don't miss the chance to catch the mesmerizing Wings of Time show, a spectacular multimedia extravaganza set against the backdrop of the open sea.
Food & Drink
With bustling street markets, where vendors sell everything from traditional Chinese herbs to intricate handicrafts and souvenirs to aromatic spices, saris, and traditional Indian sweets, there is always a mouthwatering taste waiting to be discovered in Singapore.
