Singapore Honeymoon Package

As you land in Singapore today, your guide will greet you at the airport before an hour-long MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) ride to your hotel for luggage storage. We’ll then travel light and unlock all highlights of this island city-state via convenient public transportation.

Let’s start from Tiong Bahru, one of Singapore’s trendiest residential areas. Here, public housing with round balconies, flat roofs, and spiral stairs is interspersed with independent bookstores and boutique cafes, far from typical Asian neighborhoods. Deeper inside, strike casual poses for photos with true-to-life murals that vividly portray local life scenes of the 19th and 20th centuries, including lively bazaars, mysterious fortune-telling stalls, as well as cozy Bird Corner and houses. As you get hungry, turn into Tiong Bahru Market, where the first floor offers a bewildering variety of fresh produce and groceries, while the second floor features cooked foods such as soy milk, steamed rice cake topped with preserved turnip, prawn noodles, and chicken rice. Why not enjoy a hearty lunch here at your own expense? For under SGD 10 (USD 8), you can sample the most authentic local delicacies. 

Later, we’ll pop into Chinatown, an open-air Chinese museum, where traditional signage, antique red lanterns, old herbal brands, and time-honored restaurants stretch down the streets, and the shouts of street hawkers drift amid the soaring eaves of ancestral halls. What will bring you a distinctive sensation is the harmonious coexistence of the intricately detailed Hindu Sri Mariamman Temple, bright mint-green Islamic Masjid Jamae, and Chinese-style Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. When wafting incense and low-pitched chants weave together within walking distance, you’ll truly comprehend why this district is renowned as “Three Faiths Hidden in One Street”.Next up is Singapore’s well-deserved star attraction: Merlion Park, known for its iconic lion-headed, fish-tailed Merlion statue. The unique design plus layered, wave-like pedestal tactfully implies the long struggles of the nation’s ancestors who earned their living by fishing after crossing distant seas. Head straight to the observation deck and take in the modern skyline consisting of the durian-shell-shaped Esplanade - Theatres on The Bay, futuristic Helix Bridge, and towering Singapore Flyer. Besides, this landmark has received many heads of state; now you might just be standing where a bigwig once stood.

At last, your guide will accompany you on an MRT ride back to your hotel. If you’re still in the mood for more, you can part with the guide at Merlion Park and start a self-guided exploration. Stroll along Singapore River while admiring sparkling night scenes, stop by the Event Plaza for a splendid Spectra Light & Water Show, or head to the Supertree Grove at Gardens by the Bay to appreciate a Garden Rhapsody Light & Sound Show.

Accommodation: Orchid Hotel, Singapore (4 stars) or similar
