Detailed itinerary

1

A vibrant blend of old and new, Chinatown is where Singapore’s rich Chinese heritage comes alive — from colorful shophouses and traditional medicine halls to trendy bars and Michelin-rated hawker stalls. Wander through lantern-lined streets, sample local delights like char kway teow and bak kwa, or browse markets for jade jewelry and souvenirs. Whether you're here for the history, street eats, or hidden alleys, Chinatown is a must-see that never fails to charm.

Stop 2

Where the city comes alive after dark, Clarke Quay is Singapore’s riverside playground — bursting with energy, lights, and flavor. Once a historic trading port, this vibrant district is now home to waterfront dining, buzzing bars, live music, and the occasional wild river breeze. Sip cocktails by the river, dance the night away, or hop on a Singapore River Cruise right from the quay. With its kaleidoscope of heritage facades and modern fun, Clarke Quay is the perfect mix of history and hedonism.

Stop 3

Hop aboard a charming heritage bumboat and glide through centuries of history on the Singapore River Cruise. From the bustling Clarke Quay to the iconic Marina Bay Sands, this breezy ride offers postcard-perfect views of the city’s skyline, colonial bridges, and waterfront landmarks like the Merlion, Fullerton Hotel, and Esplanade. By day, it’s scenic and refreshing — by night, it’s simply magical, with twinkling lights reflecting off the water. Perfect for first-timers and romantics alike, it’s a must-do to truly see Singapore from a whole new angle.

4

Step into Singapore’s historic heart at the Colonial and Civic District, where grand architecture and national milestones come together. Stroll past stately icons like the National Gallery, Victoria Theatre, and the elegant Padang, flanked by colonial buildings that whisper stories of empire, independence, and ambition. This is where Sir Stamford Raffles first landed — and where modern Singapore took shape. With tree-lined boulevards, world-class museums, and postcard views of the skyline, the Civic District offers a graceful blend of past and present.

Stop 5

Welcome to the symbol of Singapore — where a mythical creature with a lion’s head and a fish’s body stands proudly at the waterfront. At Merlion Park, this iconic statue spouts water into the bay as skyscrapers, Marina Bay Sands, and the Esplanade rise in the background. It’s the perfect spot for classic skyline selfies, peaceful river views, or a breezy evening stroll. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or returning for nostalgia, the Merlion is a must-snap moment that captures the spirit of Singapore — proud, playful, and perfectly placed.
