You should book your hotel and your airplane ticket prior to your departure to avoid the rush and inconvenience. If you have time, you can plan your trips to local spots.
You can try to make your itinerary so you will know where to go next. Never forget to exchange your local currency to Singapore Dollars so you will have no problems in terms of paying. More importantly, once you get there, enjoy every moment. What to expect in Singapore:
Disembarking
You will disembark at Changi International Airport. This airport has three terminals. The airport is probably one of the most modern airports in the world with amenities like free internet connections and stations, outdoor swimming pool, sunflower garden, massages, span of restaurants, bars, shopping centres, boutiques and free cinemas. If you get stranded in this airport, you will surely enjoy every moment of it instead of getting upset for the delay.
Getting Around
Getting around the island is easy especially if you have a tour guide but if you want to explore and discover the places by yourself, you just need a detailed map of Singapore. There is Mass Rapid Transport (MRT) that you can consider. The good news is that the main tourist attractions are within walking distance from the stations. You can avail of the Singapore Tourist Pass (costs S$8) which is unlimited travel on MRT for one day. You can also try taking a cab.
Surviving Singapore
If you are courteous, don’t expect other people to do the same. Sometimes Singaporeans will just return your greeting with a blank state. Don’t mind them. If you are lost, be prepared to ask for directions. Brace yourself if you meet a crowd because you need to fight your way through it.
