Review of this trip

Opinion of Singapore.

Lunch spot away from the main tourist areas

Really a good idea to take a stopover and have a good sleep in a real bed.  It is an interesting place, very artificial in places, highly managed, but also very pleasant.  It is impressive to visit a city when ones knows that 60 years ago there was very little here.  On the downside, it is very hot and humid, and thus a bit exhausting, shopping is the only cool thing to do. 

The good and the bad

  • Clean, tidy, comfortable
  • Too humid
  • Very Safe
  • Very well run
  • Rather artificial and constructed
  • Plenty to do
  • Most entertainment is ‘canned’
  • Great for a stopover between flights
  • English widely spoken
  • Easy to get around
