Singapore in 6 Days: The Ultimate Itinerary to Enjoy All the Ongoing Events!

Christmas is right around the corner, and we’ve got a great idea for a holiday you’ll never forget!

The answer: a trip to Singapore! There are plenty of things to do in Singapore as the Lion City has plenty to offer in terms of incredible attractions and experiences. You’ll find greenery interspersed with the metro, framed by a beautiful harbor. Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay, and Sentosa, among many others, are iconic Singapore attractions you can explore. 

Need a bit more push to go on that Singapore holiday getaway? Here’s a six-day itinerary we’ve crafted for a spectacular Christmas in Singapore:

Upon arriving, one of the first things to do in Singapore is to go to your destination or hotel by booking private airport transfers. Skip finding out how to commute in a new country and go straight to the fun!

You can book from providers that accommodate one-way transfers or roundtrip transfers for groups of three to nine, or book private car transfers, 24 to 45-seater buses, or luxury vans if you’ve got extra money to splurge. 

Before leaving the airport, it’s important to get Wi-Fi or 4G Prepaid Sim Cards so you can keep in touch and update your loved ones while you explore Singapore. You can pick up this 4G SIM Card at Changi Airport, which provides 100GB data and calls valid for 7, 12, or 28 days. 

Another great one you can get straight from the airport is this 4G SIM Card, which offers 100 GB of data, 1000 minutes local and 30 minutes international calls, valid for 10 or 30 days. 

You’re probably wondering: why spend an entire day at the airport? That’s because Changi is a destination on its own, especially Jewel Changi Airport. It’s a ten-story nature-themed entertainment hub  filled with food joints, shopping centers, and IG-worthy scenery.

It’s home to beloved Singapore attractions such as Rain Vortex, the world’s largest indoor waterfall standing at 40 meters high, and Foggy Bowls, a play area covered in mist where little ones feel like they’re on the clouds! 

Got tons of luggage? Worry not! There are places to store your bags at Jewel. 

S.E.A. Aquarium Sentosa is one of the largest aquariums in the world, which houses 100,000 marine life of a thousand different species living across 45 habitats. Feel as if you’re under the sea among Manta Rays at the Open Ocean Exhibit and underneath the aquatic creatures at the ocean dome. It’s also a Singapore attraction you can’t miss during the holiday season, as you can enjoy a Splashtacular Christmas speeding down waterslides and floating along a lazy river!

After a day of acquainting yourself with life under the sea, it’s time for a seaside spectacle like no other! Wings of Time is a marvel of state-of-the-art laser lights, pyrotechnics, water fountains, and 3D mapping that tell the story of a mythical bird creature and his friends journeying through time across various incredible landscapes.

Kickstart your day with a fun excursion to a Singapore attraction for the young and young at heart. Delve into the world of the Despicable Me and Minions movies at A Minion's Perspective Experience. This exhibit takes you in the iconic scenes, lets you play fun games, and even lets you take pictures with your favorite characters!

Soar across Singapore’s breathtaking southern region filled with natural landscapes on the Singapore Cable Car. Get 360-degree aerial views of the verdant Mount Faber and Sentosa. It’s also a great way to reach attractions such as Megazip, Universal Studios Singapore, and Siloso Beach.

Find out the history of Singapore’s iconic beer and how it’s made from the source itself on the Tiger Brewery Tour. During this tour in Singapore, you’ll check out the brewing process from start to finish, even the packaging step! You can also try tapping your very own pint of beer and sipping on various fresh brews.

Witness Gardens by the Bay transforms into Pandora, the stunning world of James Cameron’s film with Avatar: The Experience at Gardens by the Bay. Be in awe of the bioluminescent environments and lifelike animatronic banshees and creatures amidst the garden’s stunning landscapes!

After you explore Pandora, you can bring the little ones to Jumptopia, an attraction in Singapore that is also at Gardens by the Bay. They’ll surely enjoy the indoor garden-themed bouncy castles that are fun for the whole family! It will be open from 20 Dec 2021 to 3 Jul 2022, so you can go there during the Christmas break or in the summer.

Start your day right with breakfast with a twist: have Breakfast in the Wild at Singapore Zoo! While munching on breakfast staples such as eggs, bread, and local delicacies, witness an orangutan family makes its way to the tree tops. Right after, you can go ahead and explore the rest of the open-concept Singapore Zoo!

Check out Asia’s one and only river-themed wildlife park: Mandai River Wonders, with sections based on the world’s greatest rivers. Check out the giant pandas of the Yangtze River zone, which includes Lele, the park’s ever panda cub. You can also spot the Indian Gharials at the Ganges River, the Squirrel Monkeys of the Amazon at the Wild Amazonia zone, and more!

On the last day, you can book another airport transfer from your hotel back to the airport for you trip home, unless you’ve booked roundtrip transfers from the beginning. Feel free to explore more of Jewel Changi while you wait for your flight!
