    Singapore is the easiest first international trip for a lot of Indian families, and there is a good reason for that. Everything works the way you expect it to, the airport alone is worth an hour of your time, and you can go from a Michelin listed hawker stall to a rooftop infinity pool in the space of one afternoon. It is also small enough that you do not lose half your trip to travel time between sights, which matters if you are doing this with kids or with parents who tire out by evening.

    We book a steady mix of honeymooners, families with young kids and larger multi generation groups on this route, and Singapore tends to suit all three without much compromise. The city rewards a bit of planning though, since the big draws like Universal Studios or the Night Safari can eat a full day each, so it is worth deciding early what you actually want to prioritise.

    Our Singapore tour packages start at ₹29,367 per person for a 4 night trip, with combined itineraries such as Singapore with Malaysia or a Singapore cruise with Phuket if you want to see more than one place in a single trip. If you are comparing destinations, our Malaysia, Thailand and Bali packages are worth a look too. Singapore runs a bit higher on cost than any of these three, but it makes up for it in convenience, safety and how easy it is with kids.

    Singapore packages from your city

    There are no direct low cost routes from most Indian cities, but full service carriers connect well, and several cities now have non stop options. Here is what the route looks like from each of our major departure cities.

    Singapore packages from Kerala. Kochi has a direct connection to Singapore on most weeks, which keeps total travel time to around 5 to 6 hours, among the shortest routes on this list. Kerala has always been a strong Southeast Asia market for us, and Singapore's cleanliness and ease with kids make it a natural fit for family bookings out of the state. See our full Singapore tour packages from Kerala for city specific pricing and departure dates.

    Singapore packages from Chennai. Chennai has a direct flight to Singapore with a flying time of just under 4 hours, one of the more convenient routes out of South India. It is a popular pick for both honeymoons and short family breaks. Full details are on our Singapore tour packages from Chennai page.

    Singapore packages from Bangalore. Bangalore has strong direct connectivity to Singapore, usually under 4 hours flying time, and it is one of our highest volume routes for this destination. Check our Singapore tour packages from Bangalore page for current fares.

    Singapore packages from Mumbai. Mumbai connects directly to Singapore in around 5 to 5.5 hours, and we see a healthy mix of family and corporate leisure bookings on this route. Our Singapore tour packages from Mumbai page has the latest itineraries.

    Singapore packages from Delhi. Delhi is the longest of the major routes, close to 6 hours direct, but frequency is good throughout the week. See our Singapore tour packages from Delhi page for options.

    Singapore packages from Hyderabad. Hyderabad has direct flights running at just under 5 hours, and it is a route we book steadily for both honeymoon and family travel. Full pricing is on our Singapore tour packages from Hyderabad page.

    Singapore packages from Pune. Pune usually connects through Mumbai or Chennai before the onward leg to Singapore. Details are on our Singapore tour packages from Pune page.

    Singapore packages from Ahmedabad. Ahmedabad connects through Mumbai for most of the year, with occasional direct seasonal flights. We keep fares updated on our Singapore tour packages from Ahmedabad page.

    Singapore packages from Kolkata. Kolkata has a direct route to Singapore at around 4.5 hours, making it one of the more convenient options from eastern India. See our Singapore tour packages from Kolkata page for details.

    Singapore packages from Kochi. As one of Kerala's main international gateways, Kochi offers some of the best direct connectivity to Singapore of any Indian city outside the metros. Check our Singapore tour packages from Kochi page for the latest fares.

     

    Where to go in Singapore

    Gardens by the Bay is the one stop nobody skips, and it earns that reputation. The Flower Dome holds the Guinness record for the world's largest glass greenhouse, the Cloud Forest has a 35 metre indoor waterfall, and the Supertree Grove puts on a light and sound show most evenings that is worth timing your visit around.

    Sentosa Island is Singapore's answer to a full day theme park destination, with Universal Studios, the S.E.A. Aquarium and several good beaches all on one island connected by cable car, monorail or a short causeway walk.

    Marina Bay Sands is where most people take their skyline photo, and the rooftop infinity pool is genuinely worth the hype if you are staying there, though even non guests can visit the observation deck for a similar view.

    Orchard Road is Singapore's main shopping stretch, a long run of malls connected by underground tunnels that lets you shop across several buildings without stepping outside once.

    Chinatown and Little India are worth an afternoon each, and they show a side of Singapore that Orchard Road and Marina Bay do not. Little India in particular has some of the best value food in the city.

    The Night Safari at the Singapore Zoo is one of the few places in the world where you can see nocturnal animals active after dark, and it is a genuinely different experience from a daytime zoo visit.

    East Coast Park is a long stretch of coastline popular with locals for cycling and picnics, a good half day option if you want a break from the more touristy sights.

     

    Sample Singapore itineraries

    3 nights, 4 days. Ideal if Singapore is one stop on a longer regional trip. A day at Sentosa, a day covering Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay Sands, and a final day split between Orchard Road and Chinatown.

    4 nights, 5 days. Add either Universal Studios as a full day or the Singapore Zoo and Night Safari as a combined day, plus time in Little India, which most shorter itineraries end up skipping.

    5 nights, 6 days or longer. This is where a combined itinerary makes sense, either our Charming Singapore with Malaysia package, or a cruise extension like Simply Singapore with Phuket on Genting Dream if you want a few sea days built in.


     

    Things to do

    • The light show at Supertree Grove, a free 15 minute show most evenings at Gardens by the Bay
    • A day at Universal Studios Singapore, worth planning around if travelling with older kids or teenagers
    • The Singapore Zoo Night Safari, best booked for early evening before the crowds build up
    • Walking the Merlion Park waterfront, a short stop but an easy one to combine with Marina Bay Sands
    • Hawker centre hopping, Maxwell Food Centre and Lau Pa Sat are both good starting points
    • The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Chinatown, a genuinely striking building and one of the better free stops in the city
    • A cable car ride to Sentosa, a small thing but a nice way to arrive rather than walking or taking the monorail

     

    Food and what to eat

    Singapore takes its food seriously enough that several hawker stalls hold Michelin recognition, and eating at a hawker centre is not a downgrade from a restaurant here, it is often the better meal. Chilli crab and chicken rice are the two dishes most visitors try first, and both are worth seeking out at a proper hawker stall rather than a hotel restaurant version. Little India has some of the best Indian food outside India itself, useful if you want a familiar meal partway through the trip, and most hotels can also arrange vegetarian or Jain meals with a little advance notice. Laksa and char kway teow are both worth trying if you want something a bit further from home.

     

    Shopping in Singapore

    Orchard Road is the obvious first stop, a long stretch of malls that lets you compare prices across several stores without much walking outside. Chinatown Street Market is better for souvenirs and gifts at lower prices, and it is worth bargaining a little rather than accepting the first price. Mustafa Centre in Little India stays open 24 hours and is popular with Indian travellers for everything from electronics to gold jewellery. If you are after something more upscale, The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands carries the higher end brands.

     

    Best time to visit Singapore

    Singapore sits close to the equator, so the weather stays warm and fairly consistent through the year, and there is no real bad season to avoid. November to January sees slightly more rain, though showers tend to be short. If you want to catch the city at its most festive, plan around Diwali in October or November, or Chinese New Year in late January, when Little India and Chinatown are both genuinely worth walking through in the evening. December brings the Orchard Road Christmas light up, one of the better free things to see if you are travelling that month.

     

    Good to know before you go

    Visa. Indian passport holders need a visa for Singapore, there is no visa on arrival. The eVisa process is straightforward and usually processed within a week through an authorised agent, and we handle this as part of your booking.

    Currency. The Singapore Dollar, SGD. ATMs are everywhere and cards are accepted at almost every establishment, so you do not need to carry much cash.

    Language. English is the working language across the city, so there is no real communication barrier for Indian travellers.

    Getting around. The MRT covers most of the island and is the fastest, cheapest way to get between the major sights. Taxis and ride hailing apps are also reliable if you are travelling with kids or a lot of luggage.

    FAQs

    What is the best time to visit Singapore?

    Singapore is an all-year round destination. The island nation experiences a warm, tropical climate year-round with slightly more rain from Nov-Jan and slightly more heat in May-Jun. However, the best time to visit Singapore to experience its multicultural heritage is during Diwali (mid-Oct to mid-Nov), or late Jan for Chinese New Year, when Little India and Chinatown really come to life in a blaze of colour and celebration. In December it’s at its best, from the Christmas light-up along Orchard Road, to ZoukOut, the annual musical fare.

    What is the best way to get to Singapore?

    There are many airlines flying directly into Singapore. Major airlines include Singapore Airlines, Air India, Indigo, Spicejet, Vistara and Malindo.

    For more information about the best flights to Singapore, click here

    Do I require a visa to travel to Singapore?

    Foreign Nationals do require a visa to travel to Singapore. Indian passport holders can apply for a Singapore Visa online through an authorized Visa Agent appointed by the Singapore High Commission. Travelers cannot apply for the visa in person as the High Commission does not accept individual applications. You should apply for the Singapore visa at least a month prior to your intended date of travel. Akbar Travels provides Singapore visa online at a competitive price and with minimum document requirement.

    How much time should I spend in Singapore?

    You should schedule at least three full days to give yourself enough time to see all the most important highlights in Singapore. You could easily spend a week here without getting bored. For those travelling with their spouses, you might want to consider adding fun and romantic activities in Singapore. For those travelling with kids and families, make sure to include popular Singapore attractions so that everyone on the trip can have fun. Our Holiday Experts can guide you on the best Singapore itineraries to suit your budget and travel needs.

    What is the best way to get around in Singapore?

    The public transportation system in Singapore is very well developed, is well connected, and you can easily take the bus, train, or taxi to go from one place to another. While the bus and metro are quite comfortable, taxis are also popular modes of transport as they are quite economical. Though the whole island is covered by the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) system and is probably the fastest and inexpensive way to zip around the city with regular connections to Singapore’s most important sights.

    Which are the top best places to visit in Singapore?

    There are many fun and amazing things to do in Singapore. The top attractions in Singapore are:

    • Little India - Little India is multi-cultural neighborhood dedicated to Singapore’s Indian community and is a must visit for every Indian visiting the beautiful island.

    • SEA Aquarium - More than 1 lakh marine animals with more than 150 species and 50 different habitats. It’s a good spot for kids to spend the full day in the underwater watching closely different animals like a shark, corals, seal and almost 40,000 varieties of fish.
    • Merlion Park – Singapore’s most iconic symbol resides at the waterfront Merlion Park. The Merlion which is a mythical creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish is in many ways the personification of the spirit of Singapore and its history.
    • Night SafariOnly place in the world where you get to see 130 different species of animals in the night.
    • Gardens by the Bay – Ringed with bio domes, botanical gardens, and its famous Supertree Grove, Gardens by the Bay spreads out over 101 hectares and is one of the most spectacular public spaces in the world.

    What do you pay with in Singapore?

    The official currency in Singapore is the Singapore Dollar (SGD). 1 Singapore Dollar equals INR 51.33. There are ATMs all over the place. Credit card payment is also very common in Singapore, so you can get pretty far without any cash.

    Which are the best shopping places in Singapore?

    The tiny island nation is dense with more malls and shopping options than most other countries, and manages to appeal to every budget. Check out the best places to shop:

    Orchard Road - A 2.2-kilometer stretch spread with around 22 malls and 6 shopping centres, it houses various popular shopping complexes like Paragon House, Mandarin Gallery, Far East Plaza. Ngee Ann City, Orchard Central, ION Orchard and other.

Wander the jasmine and spice scented streets and gaze upon rows and rows of stalls selling silver and brassware, ethnic jewellery and multi-coloured silk saris, dress stores, traditional fabric shops and mobile stores along with delicious curry houses. Some of the best shopping places in Little India include City Square Mall, Mustafa Center, Little India Arcade, Serangoon Road side street shops, etc.

    Mustafa Centre - The only shopping centre in Singapore that is open 24-hours on Syed Alwi Road, where visitors can come in on any day of the year to buy, electronics, gold and silver jewelry, watches, cosmetics, perfumes, souvenirs and gifts, you name it!

    Chinatown - For an authentic shopping experience, head to Chinatown Street Market, where ‘made in China’ goods are plentiful and the haggling part of the fun.

    The Espalande Mall - You can’t miss the Esplanade Mall, with its iconic durian shaped architecture. Located in the Theatres on the Bay, it’s worth a visit if you’re after arts, crafts and homeware.

    The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands - No trip to Singapore is completed without visiting this one of a kind premium shopping malls in Singapore – The Shoppes. Here, only the highest quality and finest brands are on display.

    What are the food options in Singapore for Indians?

    Food is an obsession with Singaporeans. Don’t expect too many fancy restaurants; the focus here is on the food rather than the surroundings. Fine dining can cost you quite a bit. Most people eat in unpretentious food courts or hawker centres where Asian food is served up at bargain prices. Chinese, Indian and Malay food is the norm here. Local food is also quite delicious and diverse, so make sure you try everything you see. Look for fish-head curry, char kway teow (clams and noodles in a chilli and black bean sauce) and nasi lemak (coconut rice with fried anchovies). Also fear not, there are plenty of vegetarian options available. For more Singapore food tips click here
