A city that has become an economic miracle of recent decades, Singapore is simply a must-see on any trip through South-East Asia. A short two- to three-day stopover will give you the very best the country has to offer.

Marvel at the beauty of the Gardens by the Bay with their fantastical night-time show, visit the world’s largest aquarium on Sentosa Island, and in the evening, settle down in the charming Marina Bay district or enjoy a drink at the 1-Altitude bar.

More adventurous travellers can take a dip in the infinity pool on the roof of Asia’s most famous hotel, Marina Bay Sands. Singapore is simply a must-visit.
