Stopping in Singapore for 7 hours layover

If you fly with Singapore Airlines (which indeed is kick-ass airline, we liked it a lot), or some other airline that has a base in Singapore, you will probably have some layover time.

Well, we went to explore the Beachfront avenue “Gardens by the Bay”, the Marina Bay Sands Hotel area with the Supertree Grove and didn’t regret it.

If you are also stopping in Singapore for a layover and don’t want to wait at the airport be aware of the following:

  • you need at least 2 hours for transport from and to the airport.

Train will do it. Plus, you need to be at the gate some time before your flight.

  • you need Singapore Dollars.

On the airport ATM, you can not pick a small amount, so we finally just exchanged 20 EUR to cover the train tickets and a snack on the way.

  • it will be hot, since you are in a tropical area.

We came from European winter with long pants, and walking around there was quite exhausting due to heat.
