Going to Singapore for the first time. Itinerary feedback please!
Hi everyone! Going to Singapore towards the end of October with a friend for 4 days and would love some honest feedback on our itinerary. It’s our first time, so I’m probably trying to squeeze in too much.
Day 1 – City + Chinatown
We land at 12:15am, so planning to explore Jewel, shower, grab breakfast and head into the city around 6am.
- Merlion Park / Marina Bay
- Fort Canning Tree Tunnel
- Chinatown + Buddha Tooth Relic Temple
- Chinatown Complex for lunch
- Joo Chiat / Katong in the afternoon
- Clarke Quay river cruise
- Albert Centre for dinner
I know this is ambitious considering we’ll barely sleep, so let me know what you’d cut!
Day 2 – Sentosa + USS
- Cable car to Sentosa
- Universal Studios 10am–3:45pm
- Siloso + Palawan Beach
- Dinner + change at VivoCity
- Bugis Street + Arab Street in the evening
What are the absolute must-do rides at USS, and is that enough time? Should we skip Bugis/Arab Street in the evening and do it another day?
Day 3 – Gardens by the Bay / Little India
- Little India heritage walk
- Gardens by the Bay (Cloud Forest, Flower Dome, Supertree Grove)
- Lunch at MBS + indoor break during the afternoon heat
- Back to hotel/change
- MBS SkyPark around sunset
- Lau Pa Sat for dinner
- Spectra
- Rhapsody at Gardens by the Bay
Day 4 – Changi
Leave the hotel and spend the rest of the day exploring Changi and Jewel before our flight in the afternoon.
Would love tips on anything I should skip, add or rearrange, especially good food spots along these routes and things first-timers often miss!
Also, how manageable is this in October with the heat/humidity?
Thanks!
