Singapore is one of the best travel destinations in South East Asia. Let me share you some travel tips to Singapore if you plan to visit it in the near future. So, here they are:
1. Clothes: When exploring, wear light cotton short sleeved shirts and light long pants. Slip on shoes are best for temples and mosques. Avoid shorts or bikinis if you can, as local people tend to dress more modestly outside of beaches and parks, and may not appreciate the display of too much skin inside places of worship.
2. Bring suitable amounts of water, your camera and a bag for your shopping. Outlets give away too many plastic bags, but try to avoid needlessly taking them.
3. Buy a “top up” MRT card at the first station you visit for ease of travel. You can increase the value on these as you use them. the magnetic strip is swiped at each exit and entrance to the train station, and on buses. Alternatively, pay as you go at any kiosks, by pressing the destination stop you desire. Your green card can be exchanged at the same kiosks at the end, for the return of a $1 deposit.
4. Phone a taxi if you get lost, or end up waiting too long. Expect a booking fee of around $3.20.
5. Avoid rush hours in the morning and evening. Travel after 9:30 am until 4:30 pm. Then, after 7:30, explore the cool enclaves at night. Clarke Quay is best enjoyed at night.
6. Eat small meals regularly. This will help you have more energy to move about, and allow you greater variety.
7. At hot times, explore the cooler museums and heritage centers associated with many of the heritage centers.
8. Learn a little about the taboos of each culture, but don’t be too afraid, people are fairly forgiving of crazy tourists.
9. Enquire to Singapore Tourism Board at one of several visitor center.
