The city of Singapore has greatly invested in making its cruise facilities modern, luxurious, and state of the art.

Top Sights & Attractions for Cruises to Singapore

Gardens by the bay.

The Gardens by the Bay have become completely synonymous with Singapore. Here you’ll find sculptures in the shape of funky flowers lit up in bright colors. The garden is home to multiple greenhouses, like the Flower Dome, where the temperatures and the plant life are always in spring. In the Cloud Forest, a small mountain was built for visitors to scale, bringing a tropical mountain climate all the way to Singapore. Guided tours and shows happen daily, and there’s something for all ages here, including a children’s garden and a sculpture park.

Singapore Botanic Garden

This UNESCO World Heritage site is one of the few places to see the island’s rarest vegetation and greenery, making it not only a paradise but also one of the most important preservation efforts in all of Asia. When you cruise Singapore, take a leisurely walk through the grounds, where you can literally stop and smell the flowers. The Orchid Garden offers the largest collection of orchids in the world, and imported swans float along Swan Lake for a romantic afternoon out.

Singapore Flyer

Take a ride on the incredible Singapore flyer, a massive Ferris wheel in the heart of Singapore. Rides last about 30 minutes and offer incredible, panoramic views of the city during the adventure. Watch the futuristic skyline on one side and the peaceful harbor as ships float in and out on the other. At night, the Flyer even lights up.

Night Safari

For a close look at some of Singapore’s most exotic wildlife, take an unforgettable night safari, where you’ll enjoy a tram ride through this nocturnal zoo in the heart of the rainforest while on your cruise to Singapore. Nearly 150 species call this ecosystem their home, and 38 of them are endangered. There are even shows like fire-twirling and dancing, and smaller group buggy rides through the park with an expert guide.

Top things to do in singapore, go shopping on orchard road.

The definitive spot for shopping in Singapore is Orchard Road, the shopping district home to over 5,000 businesses. You can lose track of time here while on a cruise to Singapore, whether you’re looking to explore art galleries, try on new clothes, or browse for high-end goods. There’s even a rare whisky museum where you can enjoy whisky tastings. Orchard Road is also home to many bars and restaurants that add to Singapore’s gourmet scene.

Board a Bumboat

One of the best ways to admire the Singapore skyline is by taking a scenic bumboat cruise down the Singapore River. From the water, you’ll marvel at the historic Boat Quay, as well as the city’s more modern architectural sites, including the towering Marina Bay Sands and Helix Bridge. If you board a bumboat at night, you’ll also have the chance to enjoy a thrilling laser show with music, light, and water that come together for a magnificent visual experience.

Walk Singapore’s Chinatown

When stopped before your cruise from Singapore, you’ll see the city has a vibrant energy that is infectious. Singapore’s Chinatown is a must-see for some of the cheapest, best street food in the city, shops featuring local artists and designers, and beautifully preserved temples. Walk the narrow streets, stop for a bite to eat, or tour the restored temple Thian Hock Keng.

Where should I eat in Singapore?

Imperial Treasure Super Peking Duck

Make a reservation for one of the top spots for dim sum and its namesake, peking duck, here. There’s a location very close to the shopping along Orchard Road. This cozy spot is ideal for lunch after a long stretch of boutique hopping. You’ll want to plan ahead. Advanced orders are required if you want to nosh on the Beijing-style roasted duck.

Tarts at Tarte by Cheryl Koh

Address: #01-12, 1 Scotts Road, Singapore

When you’re craving sweets, Tarts at Tarte bring you pretty much every variety of tart, cake, and truffle available. Here you’ll find 66% dark chocolate tarts, blood orange tarts, and light-as-air sponge cakes. Bring some back to the ship with you as you cruise Singapore. Coffee and tea are menu staples, too. 

Address: #01-03 Dorsett Residences, Singapore

The one Michelin-starred Candlenut frequently makes “best of” lists in Singapore for its gourmet takes on Peranakan cuisine. The menu changes based on seasonal and available produce, and also offers luxe a la carte options from baby squid to chicken curry. Chef Malcolm Lee brings an extravagance to recipes passed down through generations of family.

Park Bench Deli

Address: 179 Telok Ayer St., Singapore 068627

Unpretentious and styled like an American deli, Park Bench Deli is a place to hang out with a juicy sandwich and a cold beer. From a classic fried chicken sandwich to the more adventurous pastrami tater tots, head here for comfort food in the heart of Singapore.

What’s the culture and history of Singapore?

The island of Singapore was settled by the British in the early 19th century, who then built up the port and encouraged international trade to the area. Singapore gained independence in 1965 and quickly became one of the wealthiest and most expensive places in the world as investments in housing, education, and trade began to expand. Singapore’s culture is a melting pot, known for influences from both Asia and Europe, where you’ll hear residents speaking many languages from English to Mandarin to Tamil. Its warm climate year-round makes it a favorite for tropical weather lovers.

Where can I go shopping near the Singapore cruise port?

Find luxury brands and well-known names when you’re shopping at the Marina Bay Sands Mall, which is just a short 15-minute ride from the cruise center, particularly if you’re interested in high fashion and Singaporean designers. Singapore’s Chinatown is also a must-see for its energy, where vendors not only sell cheap eats at their stalls, but also offer fashion from independent and emerging designers and artists looking to support their craft. Because so many vendors also sell food, you can hop from boutique to boutique and stay close to some of the best food before your cruise from Singapore. 

How can I get around Singapore?  

Singapore’s Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system is comprehensive and easy to navigate, not to mention efficient and clean. Hop off at the Marina South Pier station, just a short walk from the Marina Bay Cruise Centre, after spending time in downtown Singapore and the city’s main sights. Of course, taxis are very common in Singapore, but only stop at designated stands to drop you off once you’re in the city to curb traffic and make the drop-off process smoother for the city. Singapore doesn’t host ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft currently. The city’s trishaws are mostly a tourist activity now, so be careful not to pay too much for one. 

What are the local currency and tipping customs?

The official currency of Singapore is the Singaporean dollar (S$). Tipping isn’t common practice in Singapore, and credit cards are considered the norm here. You can find currency exchange at banks and conveniently at the cruise port, called the Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore.

How Much is a ROYAL CARIBBEAN SINGAPORE Cruise? How to Book? + Other Frequently Asked Questions

For many of us, the idea of going on a cruise doesn’t usually cross our minds. If and when it does, it’s something we normally wouldn’t entertain. No surprises there, really. Cruising is one of those travel styles that often come with a lot of misconceptions .

When we asked our friends what they initially thought of cruises before they learned what it was actually like, most of them said the same thing — that it’s a luxurious trip for extremely wealthy retirees who only eat, drink and party on board. So yes, no thanks to how it’s often depicted in films, we think of cruises as something that’s way out of our reach.

But over the past several years, cruising has become more accessible. While no Philippine city is currently a home port to any major cruise ship, our neighbor Singapore is! Royal Caribbean’s Spectrum of the Seas , Asia’s largest cruise ship, is calling Singapore home until 2024, giving Southeast Asian travelers an opportunity to explore our home region in style. SG’s central location means easy access to neighboring ASEAN destinations. Depending on your travel dates, the ship may make a stop in Port Klang (gateway to Kuala Lumpur), Penang, Phuket, and more.

If you’ve always been curious about going on a cruise, but you’re not sure if it’s something for you, it’s your lucky day! We were recently invited by Royal Caribbean to board and explore the Spectrum of the Seas as it sailed to Malaysia. In this article, we’ll answer some of your burning questions about cruising from Singapore!

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?

Is a Royal Caribbean cruise expensive?

Not really. Not always. It can be expensive but it can be affordable, too.

The price of the cruise depends on many things: destination, travel dates, number of nights, number of guests, and the accommodation type. Hence, the rates vary greatly.

Let’s talk about travel dates first. If you do a quick search, you’ll find several cruises with the same itinerary (same number of nights and stops) but each sailing’s price is different. It’s very much like booking a flight. But you can easily find budget-friendly dates! Here’s a quick scan I did just now:

As you can see, it’s entirely possible to find affordable sailings, especially if you book in advance. Royal Caribbean has just recently opened their 2023-2024 seasons, so if you search now, there’s a big chance you’ll find reasonable prices.

On the other hand, November, December and January tend to have the steepest rates because they’re around major holidays — Christmas, New Year, and Chinese New Year! You’ll also notice the big difference between room types.

Speaking of room types, the most affordable cabin is the Interior state room . And if you’re able to book a cheaper date, you’ll find that the price of a cruise isn’t too far away from the cost of a typical land tour in Singapore. I’ll break it down and explain further in the next section.

How much is a Royal Caribbean cruise from Singapore?

The rates vary depending on a number of factors, as mentioned. But here’s an example of an affordable find:

A 3-night cruise that makes a stop in Penang can cost as low as SGD 767.52 (PHP 30,700) for 2 persons (interior room) for an August 2023 sailing. That’s SGD 383.75 (PHP 15,350) per person . This can go even lower if you’re traveling with seniors, who are eligible for a substantial discount.

I think that’s a fantastic deal considering that it’s inclusive of the following:

• 3-night accommodations (interior)
• UNLIMITED meals
• entertainment (theatre, movies, etc.)
• access to amenities (pools, some attractions)
• stop in Malaysia (tour not included)
• gratuities / tips
• taxes and fees

In comparison, here’s what 2 travelers would probably spend on a typical DIY land tour in Singapore:

• SGD 370 (P15,000) – Hotel (3 nights at a typical budget hotel at P5000/night)
• SGD 200 (P8000) – Food (4 days at SGD 25/person/day)
• SGD 200 (P8000) – Attractions & incidentals (SGD100 budget/person)
• SGD 50 (P2000) – Transportation (SG Tourist pass SGD25/person)
• TOTAL: SGD 820 (P33,200) or SGD 410 (P16,600)

Of course, depending on your travel preferences, your actual costs may be higher or lower than this, but for me, if I’m staying at a proper hotel, this is what I usually spend on a 4D3N Singapore trip.

But as you can see, the difference in expenses isn’t that much. The cruise cost is even lower, and it would also allow you to visit another country!

So for me, if you’re able to snag a good deal, going on a cruise is pretty much like your typical SG trip budget-wise.

Do children and seniors get a discount?

YES, most of the time! Senior guests (55 years old and above) can get a 10% discount off the cruise fare. This is equivalent to around SGD 80 – 120 per room, depending on cabin type.

Royal Caribbean also has several KIDS SAIL FREE promos, which could reduce the cruise fare for 3rd or 4th guests who are 12 years old or below, staying in the same room as the primary guests.

However, these promos are not available year-round and may not apply to certain dates. These discounts also cover the CRUISE FARE only. Taxes and other fees still need to be settled by the guests.

How to book a Royal Caribbean cruise?

For the Philippine market, the most ideal option is via www.cruising.com.ph , managed by the official Royal Caribbean representatives in the country.

What’s great about booking on the official Philippine website is, you automatically get customer service and assistance in case you make a mistake, you wish to change something, or you want to extend payments. Most importantly, you have someone to call and assist you in case of emergency. Having easy access to customer support here in the Philippines is super valuable for two reasons:

• The travel scene can still be unpredictable these days. Travel requirements and border policies change frequently and quickly. It’s nice to have someone you could turn to in case of urgent matters.
• Booking and going on a cruise is a little bit complicated. Or at least, more complicated than the usual land tours. There are a lot of moving parts that you need to watch — flight schedules, cruise timings, travel requirements, check-in and boarding processes, activity and dining reservations, shore excursions, etc. Having someone to keep you updated can ensure you have a hassle-free journey.

If you book on the international website, you’re basically on your own (DIY) and should you need further assistance, you need to call their customer service in the United States (US). This happened to my aunt. She mistakenly booked a cabin on a deck and section of the ship that is different and so far away from her companions. She wanted to change rooms, but because she booked via the international website, she had to call the US number.

And if you use our promo code — WORTHIT — you’ll get an additional 5% DISCOUNT on the cruise fare! You can use this on top of any existing promos or discounts.

So it’s best to book at www.cruising.com.ph !

What are the cabin types available?

The Spectrum of the Seas has four major state room categories. But under each category, not all rooms are created equal. They have different configurations and sizes. But here’s what a quick description of a typical cabin under each category and what sets them apart from each other, sorted from cheapest to most expensive.

• Interior Room. No windows. Usually 166 square feet. Some interior rooms have a virtual balcony, which is basically a screen showing some footage of the sea.
• Ocean View Room. Bigger, usually 182 square feet, and with a large window.
• Balcony Ocean View Room. Or simply “balcony rooms”. More spacious, usually 198 square feet. The glass wall facing the sea also makes it look bigger. With a spacious balcony. – You’ll also find rooms tagged “ Obstructed Ocean View Balcony “, which refers to those rooms that have a balcony but the view is partially blocked by something. For example, Deck 6 is where the smaller boats are placed, obstructing the view of many of the rooms here. Because of this, obstructed balcony rooms are often cheaper than non-balcony ocean view rooms.
• Suites. The largest, most luxurious, and most expensive accommodations. They come with a lot of perks, too. Some amenities are open only to suite guests. Here are the different suite types sorted by size and price. – Silver junior suite – Grand suite (1-bedroom) – Owner’s suite – Grand loft suite – Ultimate family suite (a two-level suite that has an indoor slide, an entertainment room, and three bedrooms, good for 11 pax)

Most staterooms (not including suites) can accommodate up to four (4) guests. (I say “most” because some Interior rooms can only host 2-3 pax.) That said, cramping four people in a room doesn’t necessarily give the best value for money. The price difference between booking 2 rooms with 2 guests each and booking 1 room with 4 guests isn’t much.

That’s not surprising given that when you book a cruise, you’re not just paying for a room but also access to endless array of food and amenities. In most instances, pricing is pretty much per person, not per room.

Note that a minor always has to share a room with an adult. You cannot book a stateroom for an unaccompanied minor.

Which stateroom is the most ideal?

That depends on your personal preferences and budget.

Anything with a view of the ocean — balcony or no balcony — is always a good choice. It gives you some space to breathe. It’s also great if you’re the type who likes admiring the view of the ocean or waking up to a bit of sunshine. If you like taking photographs, the balcony also provides a fantastic vantage point especially when the ship is docked at a port of call. And a window is useful when checking the weather quickly, especially on days that you intend to disembark for a shore excursion.

But if budget is a little tight, an interior stateroom isn’t bad at all. I have tried it before and I didn’t mind that there was no view because I was always outside exploring the other decks anyway. On our most recent cruise, we were assigned a balcony room, but to be completely honest, I didn’t really use it that much other than a couple of occasions when I wanted to take a photo of Penang’s and Singapore’s coasts.

This is probably why I think the obstructed ocean view balcony room can give me the most bang for my buck. I have never really tried it, but I’m guessing since I don’t really mind the view, it can still give me the space of a balcony room at the price of a regular ocean view room. If I would cruise again, this is probably what I would book if the price is much lower.

If you’re interested in an obstructed ocean view room, it might help to know how much of the view is blocked. It’s not visible on the international website, but it is clearly indicated on cruising.com.ph , allowing you to choose the room with the least obstruction at the same price. Here’s a sample:

Needless to say, if you’re going for an obstructed ocean view room, pick one with the least view blockage.

Are meals included?

YES. Each booking comes with access to six (6) complimentary dining options:

• Main Dining Room , a proper restaurant
• Windjammer Marketplace , buffet-style
• Splashaway Café
• Sorrento’s – Authentic New York Pizzeria
• The Café @Two70®
• SeaPlex Dog House , a “food truck” serving tasty hot dogs!

Dining at any of the above is FREE of charge , and you can have as much food as you like. When I like a particular dish, I order another serving. Even at the Main Dining Room, if I like two main dishes, I order both. It’s okay and it’s allowed. You can even ask for items that are not on the current menu. I always order a cheese platter even if it’s not on the menu (LOL).

Because of the sheer diversity of the cuisines that are available for FREE, it is entirely possible to complete the trip without spending anything more on food.

But if you want to splurge a little, aside from these complimentary food spots, you’ll also find specialty restaurants that incur additional charges, including:

• Chops Grille , steakhouse
• Teppanyaki , Japanese food prepared and served by entertaining chefs
• Jamie’s Italian by Jamie Oliver
• Wonderland , creative and innovative Alice-in-Wonderland-themed dining
• La Patisserie , pastries and desserts
• Chef’s Table
• Sichuan Red
• The Hot Pot
• Leaf & Bean cafe

Room service is also available but a US$7.95 service charge + 18% gratuity applies per stateroom order except for continental breakfast.

What are the attractions on board?

So I asked some of my friends who never considered cruising before: What do you think are in store for you on board? Unsurprisingly, most of them said “eat, drink, and party.” But nothing much other than that. I say “unsurprisingly” because years ago, I thought the same, too! When I was younger, the only mental images of cruising to me were painted by the movies I saw wherein rich retirees just socialize at cocktail parties. LOL.

But the truth is, boarding a cruise ship is like stepping into another world. There’s just a globe of things to do on board! Competition among cruise lines is intense, so every one is continuously one-upping the others by offering a lot of features, depending on the target market. Royal Caribbean, for example, has been filling their new ships to the brim with fun and exciting amenities. As one of their largest ships, the Spectrum of the Seas has more than its share of thrilling attractions and lifestyle spaces.

Here are some of them:

• RipCord by iFly , simulated skydiving experience (with extra cost)
• FlowRider , simulated surfing activity (FREE, but instructor fees apply if you need one)
• Skypad , bungee trampoline with virtual reality headset (FREE)
• Rock climbing wall (FREE)
• Royal Theatre , where musical and other entertaining performances are regularly staged (most shows are FREE)
• SeaPlex , a sports complex where you can ride bumper cars; play tennis, pingpong and basketball; try archery; and more! (FREE)
• North Star , a glass-enclosed observation pod and capsule ride that allows a 360-degree view (with extra cost)
• Swimming pools and whirlpools (FREE)
• Music hall , with band performances every night (FREE)
• Star Moment , karaoke! (FREE)
• Spas and gym (FREE)
• Video game arcade

We were able to try almost everything on the list and we really had a lot of fun! We were at the Music Hall every night and would spend our high-seas day trying most of the rides and attractions.

And oh, don’t forget to catch at least one of the awesome shows at the Royal Theatre and the Two70 !

Are there attractions for children/toddlers?

YES. Children have their own swimming area, complete with water slides.

The SeaPlex, a sports complex, composed of game rooms and a lot of kid-friendly attractions like an arcade, video game rooms, archery room, bumper cars, and claw machines.

Some of the shows at the Royal Theatre are also wholesome, which kids can enjoy.

The Spectrum of the Seas also has a so-called Adventure Ocean program, which is basically a youth club or day care, where children ages 3 to 11 can play with other kids. Parents can drop off their kids here.

Is it senior-friendly?

YES, of course. There’s a reason why most people (mistakenly) assume it’s only for retirees and pensioners — when it comes to travel styles, cruising is a favorite among the elderly!

While the ship is gigantic, it is quite easy to explore. It has at least 16 guest elevators: 10 between the aft (back end) and midship, and another 6 towards the forward section. From here, most key attractions on board are easily accessible.

For guests with mobility issues, cabins near the elevators can be requested. Some rooms are also especially designed for PWD guests.

Cruising in general is popular among senior travelers because of the sheer convenience. Guests are well taken care of. For example, you never have to carry your luggage. Once you check it, the staff will deliver it to your room. And on the last night, you can leave it in the hallway again for the staff to pick it up. The next time you’ll see it again is once you disembark.

On top of all these, everything you need is on board. You may choose not to explore the stops or ports of call at all and still have a grand time.

What are the usual destinations?

The journey always starts and ends in Singapore. But the usual stops, called ports of call , depend on the number nights.

• 3 nights: Penang
• 4 nights: Port Klang/Kuala Lumpur and Penang, OR Penang and Phuket
• 5 nights: Port Klang/Kuala Lumpur, Penang, AND Phuket

The arrival and departure times vary, but you’ll usually get just a day or half-day at each stop.

The last full day onboard is usually spent at high seas, so you’ll be on the ship the entire time.

How to explore each port of call?

You have the option to book a guided tour from Royal Caribbean called SHOREX (Shore Excursion) or you can explore the destination on your own.

The beauty of joining a shorex is they will be taking care of everything for you, including the transfers to and from the port, but it usually comes with a rigid itinerary.

If you want more freedom and flexibility, you can explore independently. But just make sure that you’ll be back to the ship before the set time. You can see the arrival and departure times on the Royal Caribbean app.

Penang and Phuket are quite easy to explore because the pier isn’t too far away from the main points of interest or city center. But Port Klang is tricky because it’s roughly 1.5 to 2 hours from Kuala Lumpur, depending on traffic conditions. This means, you’ll be spending at least 3 hours on the road.

Important! You have to be fully vaccinated to explore ports of call.

Is airfare to Singapore included?

No, it’s not included in the published rates.

Some travel agencies can offer fly-and-cruise packages, but if you’re doing it on your own, you’ll have to book the flight separately.

If budget is an issue, try to search for a week that can give you lower rates for BOTH the cruise AND flights. I know it’s easier said than done, but it is possible. I am able to find some dates that do match, especially when airlines have seat sales.

Airfare is more erratic, so that’s what I usually check first. Don’t book flights yet, just scan. Then, when you find cheap flights to Singapore, search for an affordable cruise. When you find one that matches your flight dates, book the flight and the cruise immediately. Please mind your timings. Take note of the departure and arrival times before finalizing your flight reservation.

Try to be in Singapore at least a day before the start of sailing. We don’t recommend booking a flight on the same day of boarding because a delay on your flight can easily mess up your trip. The ship won’t wait for you.

How much budget should I prepare for a Royal Caribbean cruise from Singapore?

Again, that depends on a lot of factors especially the room type and travel dates. But let’s say that you’re interested in the cheapest possible option — interior stateroom on a sailing scheduled in an off month a year away. Supposing you’re a couple flying from Manila, here’s how much you are most likely to spend per person:

• P10,000 – roundtrip Manila-Singapore flight
• P1620 – Philippine travel tax
• P2500 – 1 night at a hotel in Singapore (P5000/night divided by 2 pax)
• P15,350 – Cruise (inclusive of meals)
• P5,000 – transportation and incidental expenses
• P34,470 – TOTAL

Let’s round it off to a clean P35,000 .

This is the minimum you can expect to spend. But it’s always wise to add some allowance for other possible expenses. You might find yourself wanting a drink, buy a souvenir, try a specialty restaurant or visit an attraction in your free time in Singapore. Having a wiggle room would allow you to enjoy more!

Of course, if you fail to find flights and sailings at these prices, you’ll end up with a higher total cost, so plan your trip well.

If I test positive for COVID-19 before my cruise schedule, can I rebook? What are my options?

For cruises departing on or before 30 April 2023: If you or any of your traveling party tests positive for COVID-19 within 10 days before your sailing date or at the boarding terminal, 100% of the cruise fare will be refunded.

(As of August 30, 2022)

Is it worth it?

Okay, before anything else, full disclosure: My most recent cruise was sponsored by Royal Caribbean, so I may have biases. But in my honest opinion, sponsored or not, a SPECTRUM OF THE SEAS cruise is worth it! Especially if you’re able to snag promos and low prices!

It’s a travel experience that I could recommend in a heartbeat for families, friends, and couples celebrating a special occasion. When I was on board, I kept thinking about how much my sister and my senior mother would love the experience.

I absolutely enjoyed my stay that I’m already planning to do it again, this time with family. (And yes, I will be shouldering all my expenses this time!)

The Piers and Terminals in Singapore Cruise Port

The docks and terminals (services and amenities), embarking and disembarking, how to get around for cruisers to Singapore

By: Editor-in-Chief Updated: May 23, 2023

Singapore is both a major port of call and also a home (Embarkation-Disembarkation) port for cruises in the South East Asia itineraries. The city-state has two cruise ports and terminals.

As a rule of thumb, small and mid-sized cruise ships dock at the International Passenger Terminal , whilst larger ships dock at the Marina Bay Cruise Centre aka as MBCCS.

The International Passenger Terminal in Singapore Cruise Port

The International Passenger Terminal (IPT) is located on the western south shore of the city-state less than 3 miles (4.5 km) from the city’s downtown (with a population of 5.8 million). This terminal (IPT) is located next to the VivoCity shopping mall and right across the Sentosa Island, a major attraction of Singapore. Singapore Cruise Website: www.singaporecruise.com.sg

The Pier and Berths in the International Passenger Terminal

The International Passenger Terminal has one L shaped pier perpendicular to the coastline with 2 berths where two cruise ships can dock. Do not be confused with the Regional Ferry Terminal (RFT) next to it.

Cruise travelers will find a very well kept terminal building many times referred to as HarbourFront Passenger Terminal, where you will find all basic services and amenities.

Once you walk down the gangway into the pier, there is one exit gate to the terminal. The exit gates are at no more than 500 feet (150 meters) from the gangway.

What's at the International Passenger Terminal in Singapore Cruise Port

Amenities and services.

Cruise travelers will find at the Terminal all amenities and services such as restrooms, 3 money exchange counters and ATM's, public phones, Internet with Wi-Fi, coffee shops, a 7-Eleven convenience store, vending machines, a few apparel stores and a branch of the Singapore Postal Services. The Terminal also has a very convenient (and affordable) Left Luggage service. Singapore Postal Services Website: www.singpost.com

Tourist Info in Singapore

You will find a tourist information counter in the terminal. There are also Tourist Information aka Visitor Centers booths around the city’s downtown.

Duty-Free Shopping at the IPT Terminal

Cruise travelers looking for duty-free shopping will be disappointed to know that there are only a few shops at the cruise terminal. However, just next to terminal you will find all major brands and chain stores at the VivoCity Shopping Mall, which is the largest retail venue in Singapore. VivoCity Website: www.vivocity.com.sg

Transportation at the International Passenger Terminal

Cruise travelers planning to explore Singapore on your own will find that the city has a efficient, modern and affordable transportation network.

Limousines and Taxis

The Limousine Counter is on Level 1 (Main Concourse just outside the Arrival Hall) with fares to top attractions around SGD$50 (US$36). Taxis are available right outside the Terminal building. All taxis are metered and take around 10 to 15 minutes to the city center and around 30 to 40 minutes to the airport.

Underground and Public Bus

The MRT is am excellent underground/subway network with stops close to all main attractions in Singapore and also with a connection to the airport. There is a stop right at the HarbourFront on the North East Line (NEL), which has stops close to Chinatown, Clarke Quay and Little India. Right outside the main exit of the HarbourFront Terminal there are bus stops to most directions, with buses taking around 20 minutes to the city center. Singapore Public Transportation Website: www.sbstransit.com.sg

To See and Do Close by the International Passenger Terminal

Just outside the HarbourFront Terminal building, on your right (east) cruise travelers will find the VivoCity shopping mall. On the left side of the Terminal, there is a Cable Car to the Sentosa Island. If this top attraction of Singapore is on your plans, you may also consider using the Sentosa Express monorail, which has a stop located at VivoCity (Lobby L, Level 3).

Marina Bay Cruise Centre in Singapore Cruise Port

The Marina Bay Cruise Centre (aka MBCCS) where larger ships dock is located on the south shore of the city-state around 2 miles (3 km) from the downtown. MBCCS Website: mbccs.com.sg

Monthly Climate Averages for Singapore

Sightseeing:

Singapore is a small country on a small island, but with over four million people it's a fairly crowded city. The center of the city - consisting roughly of Orchard, the Riverside and a chunk of Chinatown - is known in acronym-loving Singapore as the CBD (Central Business District).

• Riverside - (also known as Civil District); Museums, statues and theaters, not to mention restaurants, bars and clubs.
• Orchard Road - Miles and miles of shopping malls.
• Bugis and Kampong Glam - Bugis and Kampong Glam are Singapore's old Malay district, now largely taken over by mall-shopping, although Arab Street in the Kampong Glam area is well worth a visit for its eclectic mix of unique shops and restaurants.
• Chinatown - The area originally designated for Chinese settlement by Stamford Raffles. Now a Cantonese enclave in predominantly Hokkien Singapore.
• Little India - A piece of India to the north of the city core.
• Balestier, Newton, Novena and Toa Payoh - Budget accommodations and Burmese temples within striking distance of the center.
• North and West - The northern and western parts of the island, also known as Woodlands and Jurong respectively, form Singapore's residential and industrial hinterlands.
• East Coast - The largely residential eastern part of the island contains Changi Airport and many famous eateries. Katong is located in the East Coast and is famous for its Peranakan food, such as laksa. Joo Chiat has some well-restored Peranakan houses with characteristic intricate architecture. Also consists of Geylang Serai, the true home of Singapore's Malays.
• Sentosa - A separate island developed into a resort, Sentosa is the closest that Singapore gets to Disneyland.
• A relatively short journey takes one to the Marina Bay area and in particular, the Marina Bay laser-light show. This occurs twice-nightly and is an attraction that draws thousands of people, both on the river-boats or sitting and standing on the beautiful esplanade which faces the bay. Here is the famous Singapore ‘ Merlion ’ and the surrounding area of the Bay is a mass of colour.

Tours Excursions Transportation:

Explore Singapore via the public transport system with The Singapore Tourist Pass . Designed to give tourists the best value and ease of travel, the STP is available as 1 - Day, 2 - Day or 3- Day passes at only S$10 per day. It comes with a rental deposit of S$10 which is fully refundable if the card is returned within 5 days of issuance. If you plan to make 4 or more uses of the excellent and easy to use public transportation it is worthwhile.

Singapore City Hop-on Hop-off Tour What better way to zip about town to visit the places of interest than on the SIA Hop-on bus? Visitors can get unlimited air-conditioned rides that will take them to over 20 of the most popular attractions in the City. The bus will stop at major shopping malls and hotels such as Raffled City, Singapore Botanic Garden and Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay as well as ethnic enclaves like Chinatown, Little India and Arab Street. Passengers can get on and off whenever they want. Take a cab to the nearest stop.

Over 15,000 air-conditioned cabs ply local roads and provide comfortable, hassle-free travel at a very reasonable cost. All taxis are metered and honest. When it rains, do not expect to flag down a taxi.

Trishaws, three-wheeled bicycle taxis, haunt the area around the Singapore River and Chinatown. Geared purely for tourists, they aren't really recommended for serious travel and locals do not use them. There is little room for bargaining: short rides will cost $10-20 and an hour's sightseeing charter about $50 per person.

Classic walks in Singapore include walking down the river from the Merlion through the Quays, or just strolling around Chinatown, Little India or Bugis.

For spectacular views take a ride on the Singapore Flyer , an enormous Ferris Wheel, that is as high as a 70 story building.

It pays to compare your cruise line tours here .

Nearby Places:

Shopping and food.

Located next to the Singapore Cruise center is Vivo City, the largest multi-experiential retail and lifestyle destination in Singapore, featuring about 450 outlets.

Singapore enjoys a reputation as a shoppers paradise, with no import duty or sales tax on most items. The famous shopping area is along Orchard Road, but the more colorful, ethnic shops are found in the sectors of Little India, Arab Street and Chinatown. Handicrafts, cloisonne ware, antique porcelain, jewelry and framed silk tapestries may be some of the items you may want to consider buying. Bargaining is an accepted practice in smaller shops and markets, while prices in more upscale shops and department stores are fixed.

Chewing gum absolutely not allowed! Drinking and eating on public transport strictly prohibited! Not even water!

The local currency is the Singapore dollar. ATMs are ubiquitous in Singapore and credit cards are widely accepted (although shops often levy a 3% surcharge, and taxis a whopping 15%).

If you arrive by cruise ship from another country you will have to declare the amount of cigarettes you have with you and will be taxed accordingly. For a carton: Euro 46 or U.S. $68, if you do not: expect a 20 times higher fine! They will not tell you this in the ship's tax free stores.
