Marina Bay is the business address: Marina Bay Sands, the Fullerton and the Ritz-Carlton Millenia sit within walking distance of the financial district and 25 minutes from either airport. Orchard Road is the quieter, older-money end, with the Shangri-La, the Four Seasons and the St. Regis a few minutes from the shops. For a resort inside the city, Capella on Sentosa has its own hill, pool villas and a 35-minute drive to Seletar.<\/p>\n
Singapore is compact and runs on time, so a two-day visit covers a lot. The Gardens by the Bay and the Supertree walkway are best after dark; the National Gallery and the Peranakan shophouses of Joo Chiat and Katong fill a morning; hawker centres such as Lau Pa Sat and Maxwell are where the city actually eats, and a chilli crab dinner on the East Coast is the one booking to make. Sentosa has the beaches and the golf, and the Night Safari at the zoo suits families once the heat drops.<\/p>\n
Both airports have cars at the terminal door, and traffic is light by Asian standards: Seletar to Marina Bay is 25 minutes at almost any hour, Changi 20 along the East Coast Parkway. Within the city, taxis and ride apps are cheap and plentiful, and the MRT is spotless if a guest wants to try it. Helicopter transfers are not part of the Singapore picture; the distances are too short and the airspace too tightly controlled.<\/p>\n
Singapore is seven hours ahead of central Europe in winter and six in summer. A morning departure from Europe lands early the next morning, so most clients prefer an afternoon departure that arrives in the Singapore morning after a night’s sleep on board. The rules are strict and famously enforced: no chewing gum, no vaping, no littering, and no tolerance at all for drugs. Alcohol is served everywhere licensed, and the Singapore dollar, cards and phone payments are accepted universally. Onward legs are what Singapore is for: Kuala Lumpur in 50 minutes, Phuket in under two hours, Bali in two and a half.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
