You can also take Singapore Flyer to admire the city views and enjoy the night life in Clarke Quay. Then having one and a half days to explore the popular island Sentosa, immersing yourself into the Universal Studios, seeing marine lives at S.E.A. Aquarium, bathing in the sun at Siloso Beach. For the rest stay, you can visit the Night Safari along with Singapore Zoo, stroll on Orchard Road to do some shopping, walk through Chinatown and Little India to experience different cultures.

Weather in Singapore is relatively constant. It is hot and humid throughout the year with the average temperature of 26-30°C (78-86°F). Generally, it is divided into two seasons by rainfall: Dry Season from February to August and Wet Season from September to January. The best time to visit Singapore is during Dry Season as it rains less.

Citizens of 80% of the world’s countries can travel to Singapore without a visa if their stay is less than 30 or 90 days, like all EU countries, Australia, United States, etc. Citizens from countries like Russia, India, Pakistan, need to apply for a visa in advance through the authorized travel or visa agent. In normal condition, visa will be issued within 1 to 3 working days.

As a developed country, it is easy to find non-stop international flights to Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) from the big or capital cities of the countries like USA, Canada, Australia, etc. Singapore also has a rather comprehensive public transportation system, so tourists can reach their destinations by Metro, Bus, or Taxi easily with a reasonable price.

Tipping is not a common practice in Singapore. While if you do a guided Singapore tour package, you are advised to tip your guide and driver if their services make you pleased. At hotels, if you need the porter to help you carry your luggage, you can give a small amount of tipping to express your appreciation.
