just bring a few credit cards, most of our shops accept them.

sentosa, orchard road, clark quay, raffles hotel for a meal, central business district in the night to see the quiet side of singapore

Hi Shaahs,

Sentosa is generally a tourist attraction. You may wish to have a look here to see what Sentosa has to offer:

lost...call for a cab

Bus&Soccer l0v3r (VO3x 1) SG

Sentosa?

or

ORCHARD

Shaahs84 SG

Orchard sounds fun and read really cool things about it...anyone had a good experience there?

Kenashi SG

Heard the orchard road decorations are up n better than last year due to the APEC summit.

Just go shopping at the whole stretch of shopping centres, have a nice coffee n just watch the world goes by on a wkday.

go sentosa in the morning, then go to st james for partying in the night

st james is just outside of sentosa.

just ask the ppl at vivocity (the shopping centre outside sentosa)

8000 SGD is way more than enough for 5 days in Singapore unless you wish to eat lobsters everyday. In fact, I think 3000SGD will be sufficient.

Singapore is very safe compared to other countries; and with its MRT (trains), travelling Singapore on your own is definitely not an issue. If you do not know where to go, you can also pick up a few brochures from Changi airport or your hotel to point you to the few key attractions in Singapore. And guess what? All attractions can be reached and completed within a day, and this means that you do not even have to pre-plan it in advance.

Touring Singapore is super easy.

Shaahs84 SG

sounds fun...any other places anyone can suggest...

and hey how much would be the cost of a 3 star hotel there...

SGporkz SG

chinatown little india zoo n bird park also not bad..

clarke quay boat quay( at night ) if u love to get a drink..

Cheong999 SG

1. The night Safari & the mandai zoo (if you only have time for 1, go for the night Safari)

2. Sentosa

3. Orchard Road

4. Singapore Flyer (Go at night, you can see the night view of Singapore's city)

5. Mustafa (24 hour shopping center; might be interesting to some)

6. Bird Park (Not sure if it is world's biggest bird park or SEA's biggest park)

Did I miss out any?

Fatum SG

$8000 is enough and you don't really need 5 days to tour around in Singapore.

Make sure you pop by Orchard Road and drop by Raffles Hotel for Singapore Sling.

You're from Dubai , so i think that your expectations of a vacation is really high. but don't expect too much though. ;)

most of the interesting places are already listed in the previous replies.

really hope you have fun :)

The starter of this thread, Shaahs84, claimed earlier in a different thread that he had visited Singapore more than 20 times since 1992. Yet, this naive person doesn’t even know the travel expenses, hotels and places of interests in Singapore. It is vey much the case that this boastful midget may not have even seen 8000 SGD in his entire life, let alone spending it on a holiday in Singapore.
Moreover, this daft and stupid person had the audacity to remark that Dubai is far better than Singapore in terms of progress. Only an ignorant person like him can draw a paralell between the robust economy of Singapore and a bubble-economy of Dubai.
