- One Day only in Singapore – 1st thing on our list. We only had a day in Singapore when we recently traveled to the Maldives. The Gardens by the Bay was the must do we decided on and it didn’t disappoint. The Cloud Forrest was our preferred dome if you only have time for one dome too. Be sure to check times for the light show as we were too early and went for dinner instead of staying. Gives us a reason to return though!

Review from:
- Mcfly2023
- Revisit to Singapore Zoo. My family visited the zoo 5 years ago and we have decided to revisit the zoo. We spent around 7 hours in the Zoo. We were surprised that they have a Rainforest KidzWorld. It features a water playground for all ages. Please bring extra clothes if you all decided to go for swim. Not to worry there is a nearby store if you do not bring clothes. Price are affordable and there is a nearby toilet behind KFC if you need to change. Be careful if you are dining outside KFC, there might be group of monkeys coming to you for food. Just relax there will be a zookeeper to keep them away using water gun to shoot them away. Overall the Zoo have made great improvement. For lunch, there are a lot of variety of food. Come early for lunch if possible, they will be a lot people if you arrived around noon. Dont forget to bring your camera too.

Review from:
- paulgray1
- Fantastic to see- even for the non gardener. I have little knowledge of gardening other than mowing the lawn and weeding but the Orchid centre was something else. Even our 16 month old grandson was mildly interested as we wandered around the site seeing these fascinating plants. The colours were amazing and I especially loved the mist zone. A definite recommendation to see.

Go on a fascinating journey of discovery and get up close with some of the world’s most exotic plant species as you stroll along its unique aerial walkways.
Review from:
- mjail5
- Choose this if you have only time for one attraction. We did not book way ahead online as we were not sure which day we were going. However, the day before I attempted to book but it showed that the earliest date was in 4 days time and I thought it must have all been sold out. If that happens to you, don’t be dismayed as we thought we might try our luck at the venue and sure enough managed to get tickets with prices the same as the online one.
- Another thing to check out for are the maintenance dates. The original day we wanted had the Cloud Forest on maintenance and I am so glad we checked as we only had one other free day to visit. Cloud Forest is great to visit on rainy days as it is indoors. You are greeted with the world’s tallest indoor waterfall as you start your journey before coming to Orchid Haven with the beautiful orchids on display.
- It is multi level and you take the lift to the level just before the top floor. Best to then walk to the top (or take another lift) and then make your way down one level at a time. The place is beautifully designed with the spectacular walkways. Cloud Forest is not to be missed at all costs. If you have time for only one attraction, pick this!

Review from:
- georgia
- A must see in singapore! The Singapore Flyer certainly put the London Eye to shame. Only a clear day, views of Singapore can be admired as well as the neighbouring islands. Informative staff and facts given over the in pod speakers.
- Due to covid, pods are not at maximum capacity. It appeared that families were allowed their own pods but pairs or singular travellers were grouped together, this didn’t bother us as the pods themselves are so spacious. As with many locations, they are very strict with masks – so much so they even stopped the ride as one family took theirs off. Be aware to follow the rules as they have cameras too and will make announcements. Views of the Gardens by the Bay, Marina Bay Sands and city skyline can be easily seen and snapped. The Formula 1 Marina Bay Sands track is directly below and you can see the starting line from above. Alternatively, you can exit the attraction and walk onto the track below for free.
Location: 30 Raffles Avenue, Singapore 039803

Review from:
- mjail5
- Great Variety of Birds. In Singapore it is easy to get to almost everywhere and contrary to what most people think it is equally easy to get to the bird park. All you have to do is catch the MRT to Boon Lay and then Bus 194 to the bird park. And it cost us about SGD 2.50 from Clarke Quay. Just make sure to cross the road to the other side to get the bus on the return trip.
- The 2 shows were fantastic and just like the Zoo, there were conservation messages each time.

Review from:
- Pietro M
- Worth Walking Through Upon Your Arrival To The Lion City. Stopped here before my departure and it is well worth the early ride to the airport. The waterfall area reminded me of a mini version of the Cloud Forest at the Gardens By The Bay, which is another way of saying it’s a spectacular sight to see. Tons of different viewpoints and plenty of dining and shopping options (I didn’t really check either of them out as I was more interested in the waterfall). Regardless, there’s a reason the Singapore Airport is consistently voted the best airport in the world, truly a unique experience in its own right.

#10 – Singapore Cable Car
Introduction: The breath-taking connection between Faber Peak Singapore and Sentosa Island Established since 1974, Singapore Cable Car is the nation’s first and only cableway that links Faber Peak on mainland Singapore to the island resort of Sentosa, before flying you to the Merlion or the sandy beach at Siloso. Today, the cable car rides are enjoyed across a Cable Car Sky Network of more than 100 cabins spanning almost 5 kilometres on the Mount Faber Line and the Sentosa Line. A ‘joyride’ across the Cable Car Sky Network offers a 360-degree aerial and visual treat of the entire Sentosa-HarbourFront skyline and the resort island. The scenery transforms as the cabins soar above the forest, through a skyscraper, over the harbour and travel across the jungle, sand and sea. Our passionate service ambassadors are on hand to create happy moments for all cable car joyriders.
Review from:
- mumwithbub
- We were staying on Sentosa and our son requested to ride the Cable Car at night. We ended up getting the pass that included Sentosa Island as well as Mount Fabre and did the Sentosa Island ride during the day and the Mount Fabre line by night for a different perspective. It is a little bit scary if you are afraid of heights but was a worthwhile experience. We got off at the stops at Sentosa but just rode the return trip to Mount Faber as it was quite late when we boarded. It’s a fairly quick activity if you don’t get off.
