hey guys, Singaporean here. Please, as far as possible, eat hawker food! The food culture in Southeast Asia is amazing and Singapore is no exception. Try national foods for really low prices while supporting our lovely uncles and aunties. I had friends here on exchange eat at restaurants that they complained were pricey and didn’t really try hawker food, which i think is a total shame. Almost everybody speaks English, if the person serving you is an old person who doesn’t really speak english, just ask a local to help - they’d be pretty happy to.
Some points to note - public transport is charged by total distance for the trip regardless of bus company or MRT, for up to about 5 changes if you use the travel card (Ezlink etc). Chewing gum is not illegal. Sale of chewing gum is. So you can bring it in for your own consumption, just dispose of it responsibly. Tipping is not discouraged, just not practiced. Clarke Quay is one of the main night entertainment areas (pre Covid). Orchard is where the shopping is albeit, personally speaking, more upper end. Remember to take note of any GST refunds you can get as tourist on some of our purchases. These can be done at the shops (selected) or at the airport just before departure. The bird park is scheduled to be moved in 2022 to Mandai (next to the Zoo), creating a centralised wildlife and nature district. Hope to see you all soon here once this madness is over
This is by FAR the best informational/guide video i’ve seen. You covered literally everything a first-time visitor needs to know. Also loved the graphics and editing. Keep up the good work! 👍🏼
I love Singapore having been there 3 times. I've always been in February but you will see a bit of rain but it is generally sunny in this particular month. It is quite expensive though compared to Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia
yes, just want to agree with everybody about how good this video is. Going to Singapore for three days this month. I used to live there when I was a kid. About 50 years ago LOL. I know it’s changed but so looking forward to checking it out. thanks for the video. Well done!
Sir Stamford Raffles wasn't the founder of Singapore. He was the father of British colonisers in Singapore (not saying it's good or bad, but just stating a fact). He came, struck a deal with the representative of the Sultan of the declining Malay Johor-Riau empire (with the backing of armed British ships), and made Singapore a British trading post that caused an influx of immigrants that built modern Singapore, such as Chinese and Indian merchants, traders and coolies into Singapore (amongst others).
The Merlion statute situated in the Merlion park, with the body of a fish and head of a lion is the symbol of Singapore, ensconced on the banks of the Singapore river, near the historic Fullerton Hotel giving a spectacular view,
WOW , very informative , I should be in Singapore 16th to 19th September , Flgihts and hotel booked and a list as long as my arm of things to do , i will be wrecked after , thank you very much for all this info , very helpfull ..... apart from apple maps .... lol , ive had friends use apple maps and ended up miles away from the actual destination .... Google maps all the way
Pls take note especially indian, pls be polite.. U may ask for help or direction to the place where u wanna visit but DONT forget to say THANK YOU.. Bcoz we singaporean expect ur courtesy and gratitude.. dont be arrogant.. We hate arrogant.. From Singaporean..
Gratitude, Courtesy and Respect are never demanded and especially Indians very well know how to respect others, be it anyone! You must have met someone like your self, so refrain from commanding an Indian.
One misconception about Singapore is that chewing gums is illegal in Singapore; it is actual legal to chew gum there, but you can't sell it. So if you happen to pack some gum for your own use, it's perfectly fine.
Bro, I am from India,,, can you please make such plans which are convenient for Indian,, some of travel companies are just looting who are not aware of this magnificent city
By official law, only PCN (Park Connector) and Expressway your to keep left, there is no need to squeeze just to stand left on escalator/travelator, as they are designed to stand not walk!!!!!

Please suggest some good hawker centers

The best video about Singapore I ever seen in RUclips. Clear, useful, interesting
I love Singapore having been there 3 times. I've always been in February but you will see a bit of rain but it is generally sunny in this particular month. It is quite expensive though compared to Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia
that's because Singapore is a higher income country compared to the ones you mention. So cost of living there is higher.
@@lettuce1305 Yes I'm fully aware
The peacock just chilling there at 11:14
Haha, exactly it was such a surreal experience, we went to Starbucks and there he was 😂🦚
I am going in November and this is super helpful. This is the best video by far. Thank you so much for posting it.

It's sad you have to say that, as good manners work well in every country. Thank you.
Gratitude, Courtesy and Respect are never demanded and especially Indians very well know how to respect others, be it anyone!
You must have met someone like your self, so refrain from commanding an Indian.
why are you calling out a particular race? isnt that a bit hypocritical? you preach politeness but dont follow it LOLLLLL
lots of useful information found from this video, great!
Nicely described vlog ✅✅✅

One misconception about Singapore is that chewing gums is illegal in Singapore; it is actual legal to chew gum there, but you can't sell it. So if you happen to pack some gum for your own use, it's perfectly fine.
I wouldn't recommend it. I watched a police offer ask someone to spit it in the trash.
Singapore bety good ace.
