To make a self-sufficient Singapore travel itinerary, you should pay attention to the flight time. You can choose to fly in the morning to spend time exploring Singapore in the afternoon, after check-in the hotel. The best morning flight time is departing from Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi at 8am – 9am. You will arrive at Singapore Airport around 11am – 12am, take the MRT to the hotel to send your luggage, have lunch and start your journey.

Singapore itinerary 6 days: Day 1 — Explore Gardens by the Bay and see Marina Bay Sand from the bottom up

The first day I arrived in Singapore, I checked in at 1pm, had lunch near the hotel and took the MRT to Gardens by the Bay at around 2pm – 3pm. The most beautiful time to explore Gardens by the Bay is also from 3pm, because the sunshine is light and not harsh and suitable for watching the whole unique high forest ecosystem. Gardens by the Bay is part of the Singapore government’s strategy to turn the country from a “garden city” into a “city in garden”.

Visiting Gardens by the Bay is free, because it is an open park with Supertree Grove trees 25m – 30m high, sucking solar energy to glow at night. There is an OCBC Skyway bridge system to connect these Supertree Grove trees. You need to buy an S$ 8 ticket to access this bridge but I don’t think it is necessary, because I also know that higher and more interesting places and will show you this itinerary.

What you need to buy is tickets to access the Cloud Forest and Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay. Cloud Forest is the place you must visit when come to Gardens by the Bay, if not, as if you have not experienced anything here. I was especially impressed by Cloud Forest – the forest ecosystems are built according to each layer of different heights. You can buy the Cloud Forest and Flower Dome Combo Tickets here for cheaper prices than buying directly in Singapore or cheaper than buying single ticket.

In particular, the glowing Supertree Grove trees in Gardens by the Bay will surprise you, and do not forget the Marina Bay Sand by the bay. There is also a light show at Marina Bay which is also very impressive, completely free, but you need to watch the show time.

If you have the 4th day in Singapore, you must definitely visit the Singapore Zoo – this is considered the most beautiful zoo in the world, where animals roam freely in an open environment, natural and very close to humans. You will be surprised by the strange animals, but completely not in cages or mesh, but in harmony with nature. Coming here, you are banned to feed animals freely.

Coming to Singapore Zoo, you will love animals better, understand the ecosystem, as well as feel a closed process, special significance of the zoo when responsible for the conservation of rare animal breeds and caring for the animals that still exist in the world. Compared to all the zoos that I have ever visited, the Singapore Zoo is the first choice you should visit on the list. Buy the Singapore Zoo tickets here to save even more.

Next to the Singapore Zoo is the Night Safari (5 minute walk), which is also the zoo but is only open from 7:30pm. Night Safari is a completely different experience when you will be walking to watch the animals live and hunt at night. You will experience the most attractive night zoo in the world until midnight (closed at 12pm). Or you can move by Tram (a special vehicle) to get closer to the wildlife at night as close as possible on a private route, but also very safe. You can buy the Night Safari tickets here and buy the night transfer service and add ons with Tram here so you don’t have to queue, and make sure have seats (Tram ticket is limited, buy according to the time frame, It will run out when there are too many people buying tickets.)
