Singapore's Night Safari: The World's first night safari set in 40 hectares of secondary jungle adjoining the Singapore Zoo. See a myriad of the tropical jungle after dusk with stunning effect.
Jurong Bird Park Tour: There are over 7,000 birds of more than 600 species gathered in this beautiful 20 hectare sanctuary. Visit the world's largest walk-in aviary and view what is said to be the world's highest man-made waterfall.
Top tips
For those wanting a slower paced holiday we recommend Sentosa Island, the island is relaxing but still close enough to the city.
From Singapore you can get ferries to Bintan Island (Indonesia) and Tioman Island (Malaysia).
Mix with the locals - get up early and practice tai-chi at the Singapore Botanic Gardens.
No trip is complete without a visit to Raffles Hotel, inside you will find the Long Bar home of the Singapore Sling.
