💰 How far does your money go?
A plate of Hainanese chicken rice at a hawker centre runs S$4 to S$6, about £2.50 to £3.50. A fresh sugarcane juice is under S$2. Eat three hawker meals a day and you spend around S$20, roughly £12. That is one Pret lunch back in London, and the food is better.
☀️ The weather
Singapore sits one degree off the equator, so the forecast barely moves. Highs of 30°C, lows of 26°C, all year round. Humidity hangs around 80%, and the heavy downpours clear as fast as they arrive. November is the wettest month, with rain on most days, though rarely all day.
🏨 Where to stay
Pick your neighbourhood first: Chinatown and Little India for cheap eats, Orchard for shops and transport, Marina Bay for the postcard.
The Great Madras — 8.2/10 · From £70/night A restored 1960s block in Little India, steps from two MRT lines and the best roti prata in the city.
YOTEL Singapore Orchard — 8.6/10 · From £130/night Compact smart rooms, a rooftop pool and bar, right on Orchard Road.
The Fullerton Hotel Singapore — 9.0/10 · From £280/night A colonnaded former post office on the river, with Marina Bay on your doorstep.
🎯 What to do
Two days covers the icons. A week lets you eat properly.
Gardens by the Bay — Walk the Supertree Grove after dark for the free Garden Rhapsody light show at 7.45pm and 8.45pm.
Hawker crawl — Maxwell Food Centre and Chinatown Complex serve the cheapest Michelin-listed food anywhere on earth.
Night Safari — Tram rides and walking trails past more than 900 animals, all after sunset, next to the main zoo.
Haw Par Villa — A free and deeply strange 1930s park of statues depicting the ten courts of Chinese hell.
🗺️ Where to go from here
Singapore is the cleanest hub in Southeast Asia. Use it as a launch pad, not a full stop.
Bintan — 50-minute ferry from Tanah Merah for white-sand resorts and near-empty beaches.
Batam — 45 to 75 minutes by ferry, Indonesia at half the price, return fares from S$58.
Kuala Lumpur — An hour by plane or five by coach, for rooftop bars and the Batu Caves.
Bali — A 2.5-hour flight, often cheap on Scoot or AirAsia.
Langkawi — Under 90 minutes by air for duty-free island life off Malaysia's northwest coast.
