1 – Fall in love with a floral wonderland: Gardens by the Bay
Glass domes, forestry of blooms, waterfalls and walkways across canopies of trees, the whimsical Gardens by the Bay is made for lovers!
Singapore’s most recognized landmark is divided into green outdoor spaces (like the Kingfisher Wetlands) and indoor gardens.
Discover one of the tallest indoor waterfalls inside the iconic Cloud Forest, strolling across an elevated zigzagging walkway of exotic plants.
The resplendent Flower Dome lures you in with themed floral arrangements, and easily imagine fairies playing inside the four gardens of Floral Fantasy.
From near and far (and splattered across just about every advertisement for Singapore), see the purple and green structures of the Supertree Observatory, and the 22-meter OCBC Skywalk runs through the vertical gardens.
Hot tip: Experience the magical Garden Rhapsody show at Gardens by the Bay, a highlight among things to do in Singapore at night, where the Supertree Grove comes alive with lights and music.
2 – See the city from a different perspective on a river boat tour
Hands hold tight, let the world pass you by as you sail along the Singapore River wrapped in your darling’s arms.
Hop on board a 20th-century traditional wooden tongkang boat, sit back and enjoy the sights and sounds of life passing you by during a relaxing yet insightful riverboat tour.
Chugging along the water, cruise past some of the city’s most famous landmarks, like Marina Bay Sands, Raffles’ Landing Site and the Singapore Flyer.
Daytime river cruises typically last 40 minutes and are really affordable. However, if your hearts are set on seeing the city under its twinkling metropolis of lights, there is a nighttime option instead.
Got any questions along the way? Whether it’s about the city’s history or one of its more modern attractions, there’s onboard English commentary the whole way guiding you.
3 – Dine at celeb restaurants at Marina Bay Sands
The epitome of luxury, feel like a world-class celebrity at Marina Bay Sands!
Is it a plane? A boat? A train in the clouds? Why, it’s the SkyPark Observation Deck! This icon of Singapore is an architectural masterpiece built across three individual towers. The city panoramas from here are next-level — literally!
Mandatory to enter the viewpoint, grab your Marina Bay Sands Skypark tickets beforehand. Couples, consider the dreamy ‘Sunset in the Sky’ option, toppled with champagne and handcraft gourmet choccies.
A world of celebrity chefing awaits you, from Gordon Ramsay’s Bread Street Kitchen to Cut by Wolfgang Puck. Or make like Beckham and dine at two Michelin-star Waku Ghin by Tetsuya Wakuda.
Then, take your pick of fanciful bars to unwind into the night. Sip on cocktails with a view at CÉ LA VI SkyBar & Club, or knock back the finest selection of American whiskeys at Yardbird Southern Table & Bar (overseeing Marina Bay).
From New York to Singapore, don your red lips and dancing shoes and finish off the evening in style at Marquee!
4 – Let the sounds of music fill your soul with romantic candlelight concert
Picture this: a room dazzled with hundreds of warm flickering candles and the sweet sounds of a dramatic orchestra filling the air … We’re talking about hypnotic candlelight concerts, of course!
Unlike any live gig you’ve seen before, these special concerts are super intimate and the venues carefully chosen — this is what sets the show apart!
Sing along to “Yellow,” “A Sky Full of Stars” and all your other favorite Coldplay songs at CHIJMES, performed on piano. Also held here are ‘Magical Movie Soundtracks’ (cue the Disney classics) and the ‘Best of Anime Soundtracks’ candlelight concerts.
Revel in the sounds of Joe Hisaishi at The Arts House (or be overcome by goosebumps with a ‘Candlelight Orchestra: A Tribute to Joe Hisaishi’ at the Victoria Theatre instead), and also showing at The Arts House is K-Pop Music on Strings!
5 – Frolic in the calm waters around Sentosa’s beaches
One of the biggest reasons why tourists flock to paradisiacal Sentosa Island is because of its three gorgeous beaches — arguably, the best in Singapore!
Feel like Johnny, Orlando or Keira straight out of the Pirates of the Caribbean at Palawan Beach!
Or if you’re not the biggest sunbather, get your water sporting on at Siloso Beach (also home to a string of fab dining spots).
Tanjong Beach is the quietest of the three, and couples favor it for its peaceful vibes. Or, did you know that there’s a hidden beach on Sentosa: Tanjong Rimau?
But Sentosa isn’t the only destination for a beach day in Singapore, with more options in other parts.
Changi Beach (in front of Changi Beach Park) is a favorite with locals; Punggol Beach with its black boulders has tons of pretty rock pools, or pick up a kayak and explore East Coast Beach, which is surprisingly manmade!
6 – Chase colors of the rainbow in the Orchid Garden
Flowers are always a romantic idea … especially when you’re enveloped by over 3,000 types of Orchidaceae!
Home to 1,000 species and 2,000 hybrids, you’ll want your cameras close on hand for the stunning National Orchid Garden!
Founded in 1859, its impressive collection is owed in part to the Botanical Garden’s breeding program (started in 1928). Personalized and ‘hand-crafted,’ its visitors are mind-blown by the orchid displays and varieties time and time again.
Designed to replicate a montane forest, spot rare lady’s slipper orchids and boat orchids inside the Sembcorp Cool House.
To see the award-winners (like Dendrobiums and Vandaceous orchids), amble through the Tan Hoon Siang Mist House. The Tropical Montane Orchidetum showcases orchids and other plants, for example, magnolias and the Yuen Peng McNeice Bromeliad Collection is dedicated to neotropical plants.
7 – Stand beneath the indoor waterfall at Jewel Changi Canopy Park
Got an hour or two to kill before you check in and fly home or to your next destination? Even if not, we’d suggest making time for the Jewel Changi Canopy Park.
Located on the fifth floor of Jewel Changi Airport, this indoor garden playground mimics a massive greenhouse vibe.
As a waterfall opens from a hole in the glass roof, prepare to be mesmerized, and release your inner child on the playful attractions. But first, breathe it all in from the elevated 23-meter-high Canopy Bridge built above the park.
The sculptural Discovery Slides also double as another view deck; cool off in the (artificial) clouds on Foggy Bowls’ grass greens; and get lost inside a reflecting labyrinth at the Mirror Maze.
Flower child, seasonal floral displays await you inside the Petal Garden and let your imaginations run free on the Topiary Walk where animal structures are crafted completely out of blooms!
8 – Drink the views 100 meters above ground on the Singapore Cable Car
From dining in the sky to the mind-bending vistas over all of Lion City, a ride on the Singapore Cable car is a dreamy journey! It’s not just a means of transport; it’s a whole experience!
Connecting areas across the island of Singapore, there are two gondola lines to choose from.
The Mount Faber line takes 30 minutes and transports guests from the mainland to Sentosa Island, crossing Mount Faber, Harbourfront and Sentosa. At your final stop, you can walk five minutes across to the Imbiah Lookout point.
The Sentosa Line crosses Merlion, Imbiah Lookout and Siloso Point on Sentosa Island, and this route takes about 15 minutes.
Searching for an out-of-this-world date night? Embark on a culinary extravaganza in the clouds with one of the Cable Car Sky Dining experiences! Choose between a lavish four-course dinner; a two-course private dinner in the cable car; mezze and bubbly with the sunset in the Champagne Cabin; or treat your palettes to the flavors of Singapore with the Savour Singapore option.

Shake hands with the rich and famous and greet your favorite celebrities at Madame Tussauds Singapore! Okay, they may not be the real person, but these lifelike wax figurines will have you believing otherwise!
Apart from the museum’s usual themed zones, some super cool experiences are available only at the Singapore location, such as a wax-dripping workshop. Create cute keepsakes, like love hearts! Or, the first of its kind for any Madame Tussauds is the indoor Spirit of Singapore boat ride.
Of course, the main attraction is the waxed humans, and because you’re in Southeast Asia, some categories celebrate local VIPs and culture.

For standard rides, join other flyers in a glass capsule gondola (which can fit up to 28 people), completing one full circle on the observation wheel.
With bubbly on the table, your love bubble is further lifted as you enjoy a private 30-minute spin around the Flyer during a Premium Champagne Flight.

14 – Shop, eat, repeat in eclectic Chinatown
Vibrant and vibey, Chinatown’s atmosphere is electric!
Delicious smells fill the streets, red Chinese lanterns decorate shop fronts, calligraphed signs lure in curious minds and you can sense the spirituality in the air.
On that note, if there’s one part of Singapore for visiting the different temples, you’re in the right place! The famous five-story Buddha Tooth Relic Temple is exceptional! Taoist Thian Hock Keng Temple was built in honor of Chinese goddess of the seas, Mazu. Colorful Sri Mariamman Temple is Singapore’s oldest Hindu temple.
Visit a traditional tea house, shop for aromatic spices, get lost inside bookstores, pop into fascinating galleries, fill up on ancient herbal medicines and Chinatown has some incredible vintage and antique stores!

Fun fact for creatives: the street art around Chinatown is insane!!!
15 – Eat at the world’s cheapest 1-star Michelin restaurant on a food tour

16 – Pack a romantic picnic for Fort Canning Park
Shakespeare and picnics? Sounds like our perfect cup of fantastical tea!

With plenty to explore, hunt down the WWII sites (like the Battlebox) and colonial monuments, sculptures litter the park, and there are nine impressive gardens, such as the Spice Garden, Artisan’s Garden, Jubilee Park and Pancur Larangan (known as the Forbidden Spring).
Get better acquainted with all of the park’s landmarks and stories at the Fort Canning Heritage Gallery (inside the Fort Canning Centre), displaying artifacts from prequel times.

26 – Breathe in serenity along the Southern Ridges
You’re in Asia’s greenest city, naturally, it’s got some unique and interesting sides to it!
Go with the ebb and flow of things, appreciating one another’s company and Mother Nature along the Southern Ridges!
This 10-kilometer-long stretch offers an alternative walking route through the city and its bounty of parks, acting like a connector between them all. The famed walking ridges have many architectural wonders (like the Henderson Waves and the 80-meter-long Alexandra Arch), and tons of wildlife can be seen from this vantage point — especially from the Canopy Walk!
There’s loads to do along the way! Parks that are linked off of the Southern Ridges include Telok Blangah Hill Park (our favorite), historical Kent Ridge Park, Hort Park and Mount Faber Park.
Access the ridges from various parts, but a popular start is from the Marang Trail entrance.
27 – Go ice skating at Kallang Ice World

28 – Compare your favorite works at the National Gallery Singapore
Not only fall in love with the artworks and international exhibitions showcased at the National Gallery Singapore, but the design of this building sparks just as much joy!
A grand checkered foyer staircase, a rotunda dome and high ceilings … It’s the perfect setting for the world’s “largest public collection of Singapore and Southeast Asian modern art.”
The gallery is, in fact, split across two historic colonial buildings: the City Hall and the former Supreme Court (hence all the grandeur).
Housing over 8,000 artworks, the collections chronicle SEA from the 19th century until today from artists across Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos and Brunei.

Admire your surroundings along the 250-meter TreeTop Walk, suspended 25 meters off the ground. Pause here for a dreamy moment, with just the two of you, verdant greens and sweet singsong birds. Or, get your hearts racing further ambling up the Jelutong Tower lookout point!

Meomi Cafe is another lovely spot and a little more intimate. The cats are extra fluffy and super friendly, and you can also grab hot or soft drinks here.
Remember to always remain respectful of the kitties (you’re in their space, after all), and don’t wake them if they’re sleeping. Keep volumes down and camera flashes off.
35 – Learn about new flavors & ingredients during a cooking class
The next time you host a dinner party for friends and family, show off your new set of skills and dishes learned together during a cooking class in Singapore!
With its diverse culture, there are many options.

Headed up inside a professional kitchen, there are classes for gluten-free eaters, as well as completely vegan or vegetarian options. Opt for a private cooking class instead, making dumplings, xiao long bao, chili crab or satay.
There are also private cooking lessons where you’ll learn to cook Korean favorites or classes highlighting Peranakan cuisine (a combination of Chinese and Malay/Indonesian flavors).
Or get hands-on visiting a local wet market, shopping for your own ingredients, and then cooking up a three-dish storm back in the kitchen.
36 – Go beyond the veil inside Haw Par Villa
Ever heard of (miracle) Tiger Balm?
An outdoor museum with a twist, it’s time to step into the hallows of hell at Haw Par Villa, which is actually a cultural theme park!
The villa was built in 1935 by the inventor of the herbal ointment, Aw Boon Haw, and was formerly known as the ‘Tiger Balm Garden.’ Inspired by Chinese folklore, the setup depicts the Ten Courts of Hell through 1,000 sculptures, mini figurines and dioramas.
Step into the afterlife through series of scenes from Chinese history, literature, folklore and legends. Join a tour, like ones through the villa at twilight, or pick a DIY trail where you don’t need a guide, like the Zodiac Hunt!

How incredible does dining among orangutans sound??? Animals are full of unconditional love; now go and show them some at the Singapore Zoo!
Home to over 4,200 animals and 300 species of mammals, birds and reptiles, this tropical rainforest teems with wildlife and is designed to replicate the animals’ natural habitats.
It’s also home to the first-ever free-ranging orangutan habitat in a zoo and is located inside the Mandai Wildlife Reserve. Conservation and sustainability are at the top of the list here!
Meet animals from all over, and the 12 zones include the Australia zone, Elephants of Asia, Fragile Forest, the Great Rift Valley of Ethiopia, Orangutan Island, Primate Kingdom, KidzWorld, Reptile Garden, Reptopia, Tortoise Shell-ter, Treetop Trails and Wild Africa!
Listen in to one of the educational Keeper Talks, feed the animals (at allocated time slots) or go behind-the-scenes during Wildlife Experiences.
For an exclusive date, start off the day with the ‘Breakfast in the Wild’ dining experience, surrounded by coatimundis, macaws and orangutans!
39 – Stroll through peaceful Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve
Any avid bird watchers in the house? Asia’s greenest city is an Eden for nature lovers — and this one is perfect if you adore wildlife just as much!
In between the walking trails of Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, come across random structures, that aren’t random at all. These epic lookout points were built specifically for bird-watching, providing a higher vantage point in line with the treetops. One even resembles a nest …
Don’t miss Eagle Point or the 18-meter-high Aerie Tower!
(They also double as excellent viewpoint stations over the Kranji countryside.)
This protected reserve is a combination of wetlands and mangroves, with lovely trails set out to explore it all! There’s the Migratory Bird Trail, Mangrove Boardwalk, the Coastal Trail, Forest Trail and the Mid-canopy walk!
There are guided tours through the reserve, too, and the Mangrove Gallery and Nature Gallery are located inside the Visitor Centre.
40 – Feel as free as a bird when zip lining
Pretend to be Tarzan and Jane, swooshing from one canopy to the next on an exhilarating zip-lining adventure!
Cruising at speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour, glide across a 450-meter-long zipline, crossing jungles, beaches and the ocean with Sentosa Mega Adventure Park.
Fly over Imbiah Hill and Siloso Beach, peering down from a vantage point of 75 meters above the ground, as the landscapes swivel from greens to blues.
The hour-long Megazip session includes safety briefings and getting secured in your harness.
Adrenaline junkies, if that’s not enough action, the park also has a three-level treetop obstacle course (Megaclimb) and beach bungy trampolines (Megabounce).
41 – When your competitive side kicks in, visit a board games cafe
Do you love to battle it out on the board game arena? Who’s the ultimate champion out of the two? If none of you are going to win closing arguments with this one, put it to the test and hit up a board games cafe!
Enjoy brunch and a round of gaming at Settlers Cafe, with private rooms to book out if you wish, and outdoor seating. Established in 2003, the shelves are lined with loads of different board games, including an impressive selection of two-player games, like Onitama, Chess, Lost Cities and Reversi.
King and the Pawn serves a delicious breakfast and stocks over 350 board games! Swap artisanal coffee for cocktails for extra courage!
There are two-player games and if you’re not sure of the rules of any of the games, there are staff game gurus to demonstrate and explain the ropes and rules.
42 – Three, two, one and kiss inside the Photomatic Self Photo Studio
Feel your most comfortable self and pose for candid photos inside your very own private photo booth thanks to Photomatic Self Photo Studio.
Pull funny faces, lean in for a smooch or give us your best smiles; there’s no one else watching!
Based on a Korean concept, think of it like an automatic service photo booth, but one that produces such clean and crisp photographs you’d swear they were shot in a professional studio!
Select your preferred lighting as well as your background, from a neutral backdrop to a neon palette!
The 30-minute couple’s package includes two single portraits, one collage, two photostrips, a wall frame and all copies in digital form.
There’s also the option to add on an extra 10, 20 or 30 minutes if you need more time.
43 – Swim with sharks & play with ghosts at the Trick Eye Museum
With van Gogh on one side (covered in florals) and the Girl with a Pearl Earring (given a clownish glow-up) on the other, stand in between the two icons of the art world inside of a hot air balloon basket and prepare for lift off … Only kidding, well, about the flying part anyway!
Where artwork is reimagined and you become a part of the landscape, the Trick Eye Museum is mind-boggling.
Multiple rooms of optical illusions await, and interacting with each artwork/zone is all part of the fun. The way the pieces are composed, the 4D elements make things ultra-realistic!
Themed zones make things easier to navigate inside: there’s the World of Masterpieces, the Excitement zone, the Supernatural zone, the Fairy Tale zone, the Fantasy zone and the Trick World.
Fly on magic carpets, metamorphosize into a butterfly, turn into a mermaid, get trapped inside an hourglass… it’s all super trippy!
44 – Dress up fancy and “travel” to England for afternoon tea at The Raffles
Did you know that Singapore was ruled by Britain for 144 years? (Go figure with all the colonial-style buildings and landmarks).
At the iconic Raffles Hotel, an institute of Singapore since 1887 and inventor of the Singapore Sling cocktail, feel like you’ve literally been transported to London!
Get dressed up to the nines and spoil yourselves with The Raffles Afternoon Tea Experience set in the hotel’s elegant Grand Lobby.
Tiered stands arrive at your table, tantalizing with classic tea-time favorites, like finger sandwiches, scones, gourmet cakes and seasonal delicacies and, of course, a curated tea selection. Up it with the Champagne Indulgence option, adding a glass of bubbly and extra patisseries.
Some other places in Singapore that also do a phenomenal high tea are W Singapore, Arteastiq (at both its Mandarin Gallery and Jewel locations) and SKAI High Tea at Swissôtel The Stamford.
45 – Save space in your suitcase for Orchard Road
Happy spenders; what’s a proper holiday without a little retail therapy? Brimming with boutique stores, big discount outlets, malls, eateries and bars, Orchard Road is a shopper’s paradise.
The area around the famous 2.2-kilometer stretch is an eclectic mix of old-meets-new, where skyscrapers tower over colonial buildings and Chinese Baroque-style houses.
Back in the day, the road was lined with fruit orchards, and Singapore’s first-ever department store (TANGS) opened along here, and the rest is history.
So where to do your shopping? From shopping centers housing the biggest international brands to malls filled with local designers and products, the list seems unending.
ION Orchard, Orchard Central, Ngee Ann City, Far East Plaza, Paragon Shopping Centre, Mandarin Gallery, Knightsbridge Mall, The Centrepoint, Wisma Atria and Palais Renaissance are enough to get you started.
Bags full? You definitely deserve a cocktail! Discover hotspots and trendy eateries at Emerald Hill.
46 – Spot bubble coral and sea dragons at S.E.A. Aquarium
From wandering among the marvels of our seas to dining in the midst of it all at an underwater-themed restaurant, S.E.A Aquarium Singapore is constantly listed as one of the best aquariums in the world!
Beautiful habitats make you want to be a mermaid … walk beneath transparent tunnels while predators swim overhead … and stare up to an opening in the roof, doubling as a manta ray exhibit.
Home to more than 100,000 aquatic creatures, the animals are split into eight zones according to 40 specific ocean habitats: Shipwrecked, School of Fish, Ocean Diversity, Open Ocean Habitat, Quirky Adaptations, Underwater City, Apex Predators of the Sea and Aquatic Ecosystems.
You’ll have the chance to see some crazy-cool species, for example, black sea cucumber, Napoleon wrasse, brain coral, fried egg jellyfish, bowmouth guitarfish, wolf eel and decorator crab.
47 – Enjoy an evening of ballet at the “durian,” i.e. Theatres on the Bay
Fans of the performing arts, check in with Theatres on the Bay to see what’s the latest ballet or orchestra concert showcasing at one of its theaters.
Established in 2002, since then, the Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay has taken over as the city’s major production space, hosting the ballet, dance recitals, plays and classic music performances.
Locals affectionately refer to it as “the durian” because of its design and shape, and there’s a 1,600-seater concert hall and 2,000-seater theater under its oval roof.
Catch different touring groups and festivals held here, rotating every month/s. One of the permanents includes the ‘Esplanade Presents’ featuring different musicians from the Western classic music world.
‘Da:ns focus’ presents themed weekends, concerts and even dance workshops.
If there’s nothing showing, join a guided tour, for example, the Esplanade Night Tour.
48 – Cinephiles, catch a film at vintage The Projector
Grab the popcorn, your favorite candies and chocolate and snuggle up while watching a cinema nouveau- style film at The Projector.
Its Green Room is like your classic cinema, Redrum is an alternative entertainment space and has its own stage and the Blue Room is a dedicated hall space.
Movies are in English and foreign languages, from Korean to French to Chinese. Any anime fans in the house? You’re in luck! And there’s also an Awards Season category for the latest Golden Globe and Oscar winners.
Freshen up at the Intermission Bar, and the restaurant sells light bites.
Stay after dark when the old-school cinema transforms into a funky club — cue the DJs and Latin dancing!
49 – Or, head to an outdoor cinema under the stars
Picnic baskets and wine packed? Under the twinkle of a thousand glistening sparkles, lie back into your darling’s arms and soak up the romantic atmosphere at an outdoor cinema.
Already with dreamy connotations, there are two options for it in Singapore, hosted annually.
Running in the summertime, Films At The Fort carefully selects the best award-winning movies, screening them at an open-air cinema down on the Fort Canning Green. Bring your own munchies, or there are gourmet food trucks to fill your tummies.
Hendrick’s Sunset Cinema is hosted a few months before (typically in spring), this time, on Tanjong Beach on Sentosa. But it’s the perfect setting for its sunset session, not to mention extra poetic!
The movie selection is also your big blockbuster films; purchase cocktails from the bar; and once the movie-time magic is over, DJs overtake! What.a.vibe.
50 – Recreate a Titanic moment with Royal Albatross sailing
A seven-course dinner with wine pairings onboard a sailship at sunset? It doesn’t get more picturesque than this!
You simply can’t go wrong with the multiple-award-winning Royal Albatross sunset river cruise, although they offer many types, including a breakfast cruise and private charters.
You’ve got quite a few options for the sunset expedition. The standard dinner is a four-course, but you can upgrade this to dinner served with alcohol pairings, like wine, whiskey, gin or mixed beverages. Or, if you’re big fans of tasting menus, upgrade to a seven-course extravaganza instead.
A fireworks display and live entertainment brighten moods even more!
There’s also a City Lights Cruise, but this doesn’t include dinner and is more of a sightseeing vibe, witnessing Singapore and its landmarks under the nightly glow.
Add on extras such as VIP early boarding with canapés, flowers to the table (thank us later), gifts or a special guided tour, including a ‘take the helm’ and ‘mast climb’ options.
51 – Feel on top of the world at the best rooftops
Views, views, views! In a city where skyscrapers and Mother Nature intertwine, lap up the unique scenery at the best rooftops!
For all the feels (and meals) of the Tuscan countryside, book a table at The Florian Restaurant and Bar (enquire about their ‘La Dolce Vita’ Package for 2, including a bottle of Prosecco).
Drinks inside an adorable teepee 39 stories off the ground? Mr Stork Rooftop Bar has it all, from 360-degree vistas to ambiance.
Prepare to be blown away by Italian Altro Zafferano. From the food presentation to the setting 43 levels up and amazing cocktails — you won’t be disappointed.
Craft beer connoisseurs? Introducing the “world’s highest urban microbrewery,” LeVel 33, overseeing Marina Bay!

52 – Book an island hopping adventure
Is the ocean your happy place? Take a break from Singapore’s well-developed infrastructure and fast-moving city center crowds and revel in a day of island-hopping around its neighbors. Don’t forget, the Lion City is an island.
A favorite day trip from Singapore is to the four Southern Islands: Kusa Island, St. John’s Island, Lazarus Island and the Sisters’ Islands — but there are eight comprising this collection. Snorkeling around the Southern Islands is incredible!
(The others are Pulau Seringat, Pulau Tekukor, and Sentosa, and it’s good to know the Sisters’ Islands are technically two islets: Big Sister’s Island and Small Sister’s Island.)
Then, on the north-east coast, there’s easy-to-reach Pulau Ubin (via a 15-minute boat ride). Go hiking, biking, swimming at the beach, walking through wetlands and drinking in the views of its Blue Lake.
53 – Chill out with a Singapore sling in hand at Marina Bay Sands’ infinity pool (57 stories high)
It’s one thing sporting a rooftop infinity pool; it’s another story altogether when it happens to be suspended 200 meters in mid-air!
Doubling as a viewpoint and as the most epic rooftop pool you’ve ever seen, Marina Bay Sands’ infinity pool is thee spot to spend an afternoon, drinking cocktails 57 stories off the ground.
Open until late at night, enjoy an evening dip under the moonlight! Naturally, the panoramic views from this vantage point are incomparable — you’re swimming in the world’s largest rooftop infinity pool, after all!
Disclaimer: alas, the pool is reserved for hotel guests only, and you cannot pay for a day-session. But on that note, why not stay overnight? It’s the epitome of luxury, and there are both room and suite options.
54 – Enjoy a seafood extravaganza onboard the special Smith Marine Floating Restaurant
For lovers in search of a dinner date with a difference, a seven-course seafood feast on a floating ocean restaurant is unparalleled.
Have you heard of a kelong before? These traditional water platforms are popular in countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia, and are typically utilized as fish farms.
Smith Marine Floating Restaurant started as a fish farm in 2006, but from 2014, transformed the kelong into the city’s first floating restaurant, giving it a bit of a modern facelift.
With a menu comprising the freshest seafood, expect the likes of deep-fried lobster, Hong Kong-style steamed fish, chili crab, steamed garlic scallops, mussel sambal, stir-fried veg and vermicelli noodles with clams (subject to change).
If that’s not enough of a feast, upgrade to a nine or ten-course!
Buoying on the ocean near Pulau Ubin, the dinner includes a two-way ferry service to bring you out to sea.

Are you absolutely besotted with animals? (Guilty!)
For the chance to get up close and personal with creatures that prefer to hide out of the sunlight and come out to play when it’s dark, go on a night safari inside the Mandai Wildlife Reserve!
More than 900 animals live inside the park (41% are endangered). Explore your surroundings (and their homes) on one of four walking trails (Tasmanian Devil Trail, East Lodge Trail, Leopard Trail and Fishing Cat Trail) or on the Safari Tram Adventure.
The latter is a 30-minute ride through the park’s six habitats.
With views over Upper Seletar Reservoir and teepee tents lit up in fairy lights, book the one-of-a-kind dining experience: Evening in the Wild.
57 – Sway to the rhythm of one another at the best nightlife spots

Manhattan and The Other Room are two more bars famed for their cocktails and interiors!
58 – Like a Disney movie, go glamping and wake up in a teepee
Ditch the mundane this couple’s vacation and make it all about trying the unexpected, like glamping under the stars!
(Glamping = glamorous camping)
Swapping standard hotel rooms for a luxury tent setup, Glamping City has five separate locations around Singapore (Jewel, T3, Sentosa, Orchid Country Club or the Swiss Country Club).
Forget about sleeping bags on the floor! Cozy up inside a classic white-canvas tent or one with a rounded dome roof (depending on your location), with carpets, lights, electricity and a double bed inside.
Everything is super comfortable: you’ve got a bedside table, reading lamps, poufs and even indoor plants decorating the space.
P.S. If this holiday is finally the one, check out their ‘Proposal Package,’ where the team organizes and sets up a ‘Marry Me’ light-sign, heart balloons, a fairy light pathway and floral decor for when you two lovebirds arrive!
