History & Culture

Singapore has been one of Asia's head destinations even before the pre-pioneer period. Its situation upon the Strait of Malacca makes it an essential port, which prompted its colonization by the British in the nineteenth century. From that point forward, Singapore has encountered real development and advanced into one of the world's leading financial centers.

In the year 1819, Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles arrived and settled the southern part of Singapore for the British East Indian Company. By 1824, the whole island fell under British standard, and by 1826, Singapore turned out to be a piece of the British India Strait Settlements. In excess of 80,000 individuals lived inside the locale by 1870, as the elastic manor pulled in a large number of Chinese, Indian and Malay laborers. A statue of Sir Stamford Raffles is situated in downtown Riverside.

Despite the fact that Singapore is a little nation, it is one of the world's most multicultural goals. At the season of freedom from the British, the greater part of the populace was Chinese, Malay and Indian workers. From this equalization, present day Singapore has struck a social scene of acknowledgment and resilience among religions and social conventions. Dialect, occasions and cooking are all piece of Singapore's mixture.

Geography

Singapore's key area at the southern tip of the Malaysian cape has guaranteed its significance, which is more noteworthy than its size may appear to legitimize. Singapore comprises of the island of Singapore and somewhere in the range of 63 islets inside its regional waters. The most important island is around 26 mi/42 km from west to east and 14 mi/23 km from north to south. It's a for the most part surging nation with low slopes (the most elevated, 540-ft/166-m Bukit Timah Hill, is toward the northwest of the city).

Like a large portion of Southeast Asia, Singapore is commonly hot and sticky. It's warm and moist all year, with the temperature never reducing under 20°C (68°F), even during the evening, and as a rule moving to 30°C (86°F) during the day.

For those who enjoy sun and the beach, Singapore is an ideal place for beach lovers, as you get the hot sun throughout the year with our Singapore tour packages from Ahmedabad.

Transportation: Pick up and drop timing maintained through out Tour. All drivers were cooperative and polite.

Local agent: Local agent is responsive and all vouchers and tickets were perfect.

Cruise: Cruise was fantastic, food was good and other area was impressive except there is to much rush at restaurant and mesh up for siting. Check in and boarding process is to long due to 3500 passengers. It took 5 hours to board my room and that was hectic time. I recommend minimum 3 nights cruise.

SENTOSA is joyful area and I have 20 admission per person which is more then enough as we can enjoy all type off rides. Enjoyed 3D/4D shows, Madam tusade museum, SEA, wings of time, sky tower, beach area, mono rail, two cable car.

Bicycle Tour: Fully enjoyed bicycle tour with guide and i am recommending this tour as on bi cycle covered most at marina bay area and it is fantastic to roam on bi cycle at this area. There was little bit confusion over location of starting point as driver dont know location and he has dropped 3 KM away but I have managed with support of Maitri. Thanks to Maitri...

City Tour: City tour with flyer enjoyed with experienced guide. Need more then 4 hours for city tour with flyer. Evening enjoyed flower dome, cloud forest and MBS park.

Jurong bird park was good but very short time for bird lovers. Night safari not enjoyed as nothing to see in dark nights and very limited animals available in this area and also too late. I am not recommending this tour. I thing Zoo is better then this as in day light we can see all animals clearly.
