Singapore is an island and a country, perhaps a city-state in the Southeast Asia. Located at the tip of the Malay Peninsula, it’s tropical climate welcomes both leisure and business travelers all year round. With a balance of modern & eco-friendly infrastructures , Singapore is the perfect destination for couples , group & solo travelers who wants to connect with nature and have fun at the same time.
If you’re planning to visit this amazing country soon , here are some things that you need to pack for your Singapore Trip .
Passport
There will be some transactions and purchases in the country where they will require you to show your passport for a certain validation process so bringing it with you will be very helpful just in case.
Money
They say money is not an issue but when you get Singapore you will need to spend wisely because everything is expensive even a bottle of water .
ATMs or Money Changer stores are not a problem because they are everywhere. You can find them in Train Stations, Shopping Malls and convenient stores.
Their currency is Singaporean Dollars or SGD / S$.
Camera
Whether you are a Vlogger, Soul searcher or a Nomad , a good camera will always be a must to capture great moments and places especially in a green and smart city of Singapore.
Power bank
Don’t forget to bring your Power bank with you especially when you are planning for a whole-day trip around the city. You might not want to get lost ( GPS ) or miss capturing beautiful scapes of Singapore.
Carry-on Umbrella
The weather in Singapore is somehow unpredictable, where it’s usually sunny in the morning and rainy in the afternoon. Airports are now allowing small umbrellas for your hand-luggage so bringing one will be worth it.
Good Sunscreen
Expect a hot weather ( like really hot ) when traveling to Singapore . I suggest buying a Dry Sunscreen to prevent having an oily face since humidity is also quite high in the country . A good sunscreen is like a good friend so don’t forget to have one.
Tumbler
Having a tumbler with you is better than buying around 2-4 SGD dollar water bottle every time you are thirsty. Refilling a potable water is an option and tap water in Singapore is safe to drink. You can find these drinking fountain in certain places like parks & sightseeing places around the city.
Sling Bag
I would recommend bringing a sling bag for people who wants feel at ease while sight seeing under the sun. It’s light and convenient. Less stress !
Long wallet
When I travel ( Domestic or International ) , a long wallet will save me from rushing when I need cash and cards . This is where I place my IDs, ATM & Credit cards, Transit Pass, Bills and coins.
Nice Clothes
You can actually wear anything in Singapore and be comfortable with it. There are no dress codes unless if you are visiting a Temple or a worship place.
Sneakers
Wearing sneakers for a long day trip around the city is pretty worth it. It will take you to far places without feeling exhausted. The great thing about sneakers is that you can always look good whatever clothes you pair with it. So bring one !
Deciding what to pack would take time but if you know what you need on a trip and you have it already, you are good to go.
