Best Night Tour in Singapore I Ever Had

Let me tell you the best time I’ve ever had in Singapore! As a traveller unbeknown to the journey that laid ahead, all I had was curiosity, excitement, and thrill in the back of my head.

Singapore was such a sight to see since the first time I opened my eyes in the country. The bustling city, clean from pollution; the skyscrapers, with towering strength; and the culture, which was such a breath of fresh air compared to Western society. Everything about Singapore was oh so lovely.

You can guess from the words I’ve expressed that I’m a satisfied tourist and happy traveller altogether. I believe every country is beautiful in its own way, but Singapore is one of my favourites. But

As previously mentioned, I was unaware of the adventure in front of me. I had no clue or idea about the country besides the market industry, landmarks, and history. The culture? I was completely oblivious. It was this moment where I realized I had to participate in a tour.

I enrolled in one of these guided tours in Singapore. It was a Singapore night tour, and it was one of the most enthralling experiences I’ve had travelling in Asia, no doubt about it.

While I was in the group, we were assisted by our tour guide in the Colonial District. If there was one word I could express about the view, it would be “spectacular”. I was immersed in the nightlife of Singapore’s fascinating urban areas. The landmarks were boasted by the city lights, with emphasis on structure and beauty as a whole. The entire tour was worth it.

It’s like I saw Singapore through the eyes of a newborn baby. I was so jealous to not experience this feeling on a daily basis. How I envied the locals and their regular routine of going through Singapore’s districts and landmarks on a regular basis!

After the engaging moments we had touring through the city at night, I knew I had to embark on another tour. I’m an animal lover, so it’s no surprise I also took the Singapore night safari tour.

I felt like a kid going to the zoo for the first time. Everything even felt livelier at night, seeing all these animals being well taken care of! The entire safari night tour in Singapore took approximately 4 hours. These hours were well spent.

Travelling in Singapore was an encapsulating experience. Three words could describe my entire adventure: thrilling, engaging, and lively. These are three factors I’d like to have on an out-of-country trip. And I’m happy to admit that Singapore is really one heck of a country. The culture, the landmarks, the people, all of them were lovely!

Call me a fan of Singapore, because I’d come back soon again and again, if I have to. No hesitation required.

Best Singapore Tour Package Ever!

It was indeed an experience to remember! My family and I decided to experience Singapore City and get a tour package. I know, it’s kind of weird that we’ve been living here for a long time and yet we decided to have a tour. The thing is, all our days and nights are mostly dedicated to working. Most of our hours are spent working. So, to give them some quality time, we decided to go out for a trip.

We’ve been searching online for different tour packages in various tourist destinations that we have. But there’s one that caught our eye. Resource Travel’s Private Night Safari Tour. Singapore, as we all know, is a crowded city. So, what more are the tourist destinations, right? When I saw the word ‘private’ I immediately said yes to it.

The Singapore Night Safari is known to be one of the most amazing sights in the country. Entering this paradise is like stepping into a world of nocturnal creatures in their dim abode. It opened in 1994 and since then this place have become the resident of more than 2000 animals of over 130 species. It was a great experience because we had a chance to experience how it feels like living in the dark spots in wildlife. It’s amazing to see that the place is well-maintained and the animals are well-taken care of.

When you think of Singapore city, a lot of tour package will come to your mind for sure. You would want to visit the beautiful China Town and learn about its rich culture; you would want to see amazing scenes at Gardens at the Bay. Whatever it is, you’re sure to consider something else than going to a zoo. But the Night Safari Tour made me see Singapore in a different light.

We trekked the jungle, and it was awesome. While walking the trails you will see more animals than what you see from the tram. Those are the indigenous animals in the Southeast Asia. We stroll along the two giant aviaries where we saw Malayan flying foxes. I am not the type of person who stays too late at night so I really thought I was going to be bored. But the experience was so magical that it made me want to stay for a longer period of time.

There’s another amazing thing that happened on the tour; we skipped the lines! I mean, we have the privilege to skip the lines since it a private tour. Aside from that, we are able to travel to the Night Safari easily because of their exclusive Singapore private transfers. It’s convenient and really memorable.

Looking for a Reliable Rental Car in Singapore? Read This

Singapore has always been one of the top destinations in my travel bucket list. I have long wanted to see the amazing landscapes and fascinating light shows of Gardens by the Bay, try the various street food at the famous hawker centres throughout the city, and experience the unique oriental vibe of Chinatown and Little India.

Piecing together our itinerary was quite a challenge, but the most difficult of all was knowing how to get to these places. Although the train system in Singapore is said to be super easy to use, I admit that I’m not very good at navigating into unfamiliar places most especially commuting. So, my friends and I decided to just get a car rental service so that we can follow our itinerary seamlessly without losing much time in public transportation queues.

Our itinerary was set and all there is to do is book a car rental service. However, finding a reliable rental car in Singapore was not as effortless as I’ve imagined. In my online search, I’ve read numerous horror stories about people forced to pay extra amounts for damages to cars like scratches and dents that were already there before the clients use them. Other companies also require a full-week rental to avail of their service, which was too much for us because we will only do a 4-day trip. We scoured at many car rental services, but haven’t found any that suit our needs and budget.

Luckily, just two days before our trip, I received a call from a friend telling me to contact CDG Rent a Car in Singapore, a company recommended by her aunt. He said that his aunt and her family rented from this company during their family trip last year and they were very satisfied with the excellent service they received. Hearing this, I researched online just to make sure before booking, and there I saw tons of positive feedbacks (even recent ones) from their previous clients, which is very reassuring for me. I was also pleased with how they clearly state their rental prices along with their booking rules and regulations on their website. You can also rent a car for a minimum of 1 day so it is very convenient for those who want short-term rentals like us. So, we finally decided to book with them!

The online booking process was very intuitive and hassle-free. All I did was go to their website’s reservation page, input the needed details, and my reservation was complete! Shortly after, I received an email confirmation with complete booking details, instructions, and contact information.

Upon arrival, we went to pick up the car. We were delighted to see it in great condition, almost like new! It was clean and ran nicely throughout the trip. We were lucky not to have any inconveniences along the road, but we were still worry-free because the company has car doctors on call to assist us whenever we have road troubles. They also offer Collision Damage Reduction and personal accident insurance, which you can readily avail during your online booking process.

Overall, we had a great experience thanks to CDG Rent a Car. Our trip went on smoothly and we were able to visit all the places in our itinerary.
