Hi all,

Currently planning a 3D2N trip to S'pore with my other-half. Itinerary is pretty much simple,

First day (expect to arrive just around lunch time). Visit orchard road(the shopping~ LoL) and night time go for the Singapore Flyer.

Second day, whole day at Universal Studios.

Third day, back to Malaysia.

Transport-wise; planning to take Aerobus to and fro.
As for accomodation, we're looking for somewhere near/around Orchard Road or Chinatown. Ready budget for accomodation is SGD50(+/- SGD10), prefer a private room with attached bathroom/shower. Fernloft at Chinatown is our choice for now,but it doesn't have the attached shower. Recomendations are most welcomed happy.gif

aiya fireworks... up to you la... its spectacular but its just fireworks display after all which i think is quite a common sight
actually flyer also nothing very special la.. see singapore view lo... but frankly i think the view from 1-altitude is nicer, you can have a drink at the bar there to chill out

Can also consider to visit MBS at night for the light art event that is only up till end April 2012.

I'll be visiting in June cry.gif no more light art event anymore sad.gif
As for the 1-altitude, there's a minimum age criteria for females at 21 years and above, and males at 25 years and above. I'm a male and only 23 this year doh.gif

Oh well, the main point would be USS..then the rest can be slowly planned out^_^

In terms of accomodation, anyone here tried Fragrance Hotel-Bugis(near to Suntec City Mall) before? SGD100/night.
How aboute Backpackers Inn-Chinatown,SGD65/night?
Both are..near totally different standards of accomodations..I believe.. LoL laugh.gif doh.gif

S$180 is not cheap for sure.. If yopu want budget, you can even get a budget S$60 hotel 81 for sure

how do you find Hotel81, as in, is it good? worth the money? No hanky-panky things right?

Going to S'pore on the 22nd(June) - want NEED to know where's the best place around KL/PJ to exchange currencies happy.gif

my colleague told me to change for just a small amount of SGD, bring the RM to S'pore and change it there - better than changing it in M'sia.. is that true?

Which Zouk in SG? There's a bar and a club. And what advise do you want? If you're bringing your girl there make sure to watch her all the time. SG guys like to approach girls so much more than MY dudes.

should be the club i guess..the one that has "4 sections"? That's the advise I was looking for..and it's her who's asking me to bring her there..so yea, i'm the worried one sad.gif

The most affordable watches can be found in Bencoolen street.. it is in the Bugis around, near to Sim Lim Square.

Sim Lim is the tech-savvy area of S'pore right? ><"

Hi guys, I am planning to visit my friend in SG on this coming Tuesday and I would like some advices from everyone here.

- Which is the best way to reach SG without hassle? Bus or train?
Bus - Aeroline from 1Utama/Sunway Pyramid

- Where is the best place for currency exchange? in Malaysia or Singapore? Do tell me where is the recommended place to do so too.
Desa Park City

- I am planning to go over there alone so I will be staying in a backpacker's lodge. Is this lodge okay?: http://www.hostelworld.com/hosteldetails.p...10#availability
Should be ok..LoL
I went with my partner, stayed at 5footwayinn - great place happy.gif

- What kind of procedure should I expect when I cross the border?
Basic passport checking I guess? =)

Thanks.
