About Singapore
Singapore is a vibrant destination known for its striking skyline, green spaces, and culinary excellence. A global financial hub with a tropical soul, it offers lush gardens, cultural quarters like Chinatown and Little India, Michelin-starred vegetarian cuisine, and buzzing nightlife. Whether you’re exploring Gardens by the Bay, relaxing at a world-class spa, or sailing off on a luxury cruise, Singapore offers a rich mix of discovery and indulgence.
My Experience
We arrived in Singapore and checked into the Mandarin Oriental, soaking in views of Marina Bay. Each day brought something new—from Sentosa’s beaches to immersive cultural strolls through Little India. The vegetarian culinary scene blew us away, with standouts like Whole Earth and Original Sin. The Botanic Gardens were peaceful, while rooftop cocktails and light shows added sparkle to our evenings. Ending the trip aboard the Genting Dream cruise was the perfect touch of luxury and adventure.
