Singapore

The unique city of Singapore is a melting pot of culture, history,  traditions and modern hi-tech industry.  English is widely spoken in this vibrant city making it easy to get around with an efficient subway system, bus services and taxis. 

Soak up the culture in Arab Street.  Here you can find basketware, semi-precious stones and embroidered materials, or visit Little India and enjoy delicious cuisine, buy spices or watch flower garlands being woven. Absorb the atmosphere in Chinatown at Thian Hock Keng Temple or watch a prayer session at Singapore's oldest Indian temple Sri Mariamman.  Here you can taste authentic Chinese cuisine and buy some of the wonderful Chinese ingredients.

A stay in Singapore would not be complete without a visit to the spectacular Raffles Hotel.  This captivating hotel is world renowned for its grandeur, elegance and charm.  A popular attraction is the Long Bar, where you can try a famous "Singapore Sling cocktail".

The Singapore Zoological Gardens and the world's first night zoo "The Night Safari" are attractions that must be seen to be believed; here you can see a wide variety of animals close up and in a nocturnal environment.

Sentosa Island is Singapore's premier island resort with many attractions to enjoy.  These include the Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom, Dolphin Lagoon, the Underwater World Oceanarium and Volcano Land.  You can also see the Merlion, standing at 37 metres high, half lion and half fish, this is Singapore's biggest replica of its national symbol.

Singapore has some wonderful hotels providing excellent restaurants.  However if you choose to dine outside of your hotel, why not visit Clarke or Boat Quay?  Here many al fresco restaurants and bars line the waterfront and provide a wonderful place to relax after a day's sightseeing.
