    i've wanted to go for a while now. But every tour that goes there you only spend a day or two before moving on.

    Is there a lot to do in that city? How long would it take to see everything worth seeing?

    • battler on 21/01/2020 - 08:07

      No shortage of things to do, but depends on your interests. Zoo is a must, as is Gardens by the Bay. Then there is Sentosa, and of course FOOD, shopping, etc.
      Crikey, you can spend a day at the airport there's so much to see!
      Remember it is small and you can get anywhere quickly by taxi/uber/train.
      You really need to look at some tours and tripadvisor, etc and figure out what things interest you - but you don't need to go on a pre-planned tour. Just wing it.
      I'd be going for at least 5 days for first visit.

        Is it worth going to Universal studios? Is it big?

        • John on 21/01/2020 - 11:14
          +1

          Universal Studios is not super big but is pretty good. But no new attractions such as Harry Potter in Japan. Line can get really crazy though I would buy an express pass, unless you happy to ride as single rider. Otherwise the trick is to leave the rides near the entrance (eg. Transformers) until later in the afternoon as the waiting time would reduce significantly. In Sentosa there's also the SEA Aquarium which until recently was the largest aquarium in the world, my son loves going there.

          But as others mentioned, the main attraction there is the food. Skip the chain restaurants and head to the food courts, or even better, the wet markets. Splurge a bit on a Singapore chili crab. If you want to splurge even more, go for a buffet at the Raffles City or do research and find what you like (their buffet scene is insane)

          • lostn on 21/01/2020 - 13:53

            @John: When you went to Universal, was it during peak (holiday) period?

            • John on 21/01/2020 - 13:56

              @lostn: Australia school holiday. But not the locals.

              • lostn on 21/01/2020 - 15:16

                @John: was it a week day or week end?

    • No Child Support on 21/01/2020 - 09:28

      I just got back from my singa trip and it was amazing. Was there for 5 days.

      The Zoo and Jewel are a must. Plenty of hawker centres for cheap grubs.

      Must try food:

      Salted egg crab
      Chilli mud crab
      char kway teow
      oyster omelette
      Laksa
      Roast meats
      Cheap sugar cane drinks

      I also had shake shack and 5 guys only because they don't have them here in australia. 5 Guys was ridiculously expensive. $17SG for a bacon cheeseburger (just the burger only).

      Getting around was expensive. We used grab and it was almost $12SG per trip. If you;re on a budget, take the MRT, else download the grab app for hassle-free commute.

      Cleanest country I've been to. They even confiscated my friend's chewies at the airport.

      • k-rokfm on 21/01/2020 - 10:00

        getting around expensive? Comparing it to taxi costs in australia its cheap as chips. From the airport to most places is under $20.. Under $30 if youre right on the outskirts.

      • lostn on 21/01/2020 - 10:07

        Yeah chewing gum is restricted.

        I'm not on a budget but have more confidence if someone knowledgeable shows me the sights instead of me figuring out which places might be best to see.

        What's shortchanged about their zoo? I've seen my share of zoos and for me to be interested there needs to be animals exclusive to them.

        "Getting around was expensive"?? seriously? the MRT is super cheap and goes almost everywhere in Singapore

      • Baghern on 21/01/2020 - 10:26

        Thats interesting my cousin was there as an exchange student years ago, and took boxes of gum with him. Customs saw it and allowed it through

      • John on 21/01/2020 - 11:16

        You're meant to split the Grab ride with a few friends to make it worth it. If you're solo then definitely the MRT.

      • Carbon Door on 21/01/2020 - 12:40

        Compare with Gojek as trios can vary vastly between companies

    • 1st-Amendment on 21/01/2020 - 10:01

      I used to live there so my advice is (and same goes for most travel):

      Get yourself with familiar with the local public transport. With the EZ-Link card (same as Opal, Myki, Oyster, Octopus) you can tap on and off and roam the city for days reasonably cheaply.

      Singapore can be really expensive if you hang out at the tourist spots. Don't be afraid to venture into the local places. You can see most things within about 3-4 days.

      Think about using Singapore as a launchpad into the rest of Asia if you want a longer break. Once you're out of Australia, travel and hotels can be really cheap so you can do a lot more with your hard earned.

      • ozsj on 21/01/2020 - 12:46

        You can tap on and off with PayWave now — times have changed!

    • UberIsCool on 21/01/2020 - 10:11

      There is tons to see and do, from off the street cheap food and cheap paces to sleep through to high end shopping and 5 star places to sleep. Also, I took the Ferry over to Indonesia (batam) for an experience or up to Malaysia and stay at Johor Bahru. You could spend a week in Singapore and not get bored.

      Only thing is Alcohol is expensive but there are a number of craft beer places popping up which make it about the same as craft breweries in Australia.

      • prankster on 21/01/2020 - 22:29

        dunno, i think singapore is a bit overrated, i went there for 3 days - really only had 1 full day but was content.

        we only just did the hawker markets, saw the light show at marina bay sands, see the mini lion, went to chinatown and that was it.
        all these other places like univeral studios, sentosa island, zoo is meh in my eyes for some reason.

        maybe its just me

          I'm with you. The touristy stuff is a trap, better to just walk the streets, eat a few local meals, have a few beers, then move on.

    For those that have been before is there a good way to eat cheaply when you are a coeliac?

    • Numlock on 21/01/2020 - 09:17

      eat cheaply

      Yes, go to restaurants only. Singapore and cheap don't mix. You can get cheap food at Hawker Centres but they're filled with Gluten and not very healthy.

    • satcher on 21/01/2020 - 14:48
      +1

      We went last year with a coeliac in the family. The supermarkets have a decent selection of gluten free food and, as we didn’t want to risk being sick during the trip, we mostly cooked our meals. The restaurants were pretty good though and either declared which options were gluten free on the menu or were happy to customise. Had no issues.

  • Indomietable on 21/01/2020 - 09:43

    Is the flight from Melbourne on A380?

    I would pay extra just to fly on that plane and if it is then this deal is even better deal!

    • 1st-Amendment on 21/01/2020 - 10:02
      +1

      Why? A350 or Dreamliner are better planes.

      • lostn on 21/01/2020 - 10:10

        I have flown on the 787 before. 250 economy passengers share 2 toilets. Wtf. Some of them to go in to brush their teeth.

        Airbus plane has 5 or 6 for economy.

        • 1st-Amendment on 21/01/2020 - 10:16
          +3

          Toilets/seats/storage etc are configured by the airline, not part of the plane manufacturer…

      • UberIsCool on 21/01/2020 - 10:12

        Maybe they want to experience the mammoth A380

      • Indomietable on 21/01/2020 - 15:59
        +1

        A350 or Dreamliner are better planes.

        A350 & Dreamliner is better for the airline. They are very cheap and versatile for the airline to run.

        A380 is much more expensive to run so it's bad for the airline but good for the passenger.
        Most airlines have difficulties filling up A380 consistently but the amenities/staff is pretty much constant. You have better chances of getting a better service and empty seat/row.
        Nothing beats the comfort, smooth & quietness of A380. It's so quiet that the activities around the toilet area (door slams/toilet flush) becomes annoying to me so I always try to avoid it. Cruising noise on Dreamliner feels louder than A380 taking off. Some window seat, even on economy gives you 30cm of extra space on the side. Due to its size, headroom are so big that you dont feel cramped you don't feel much turbulence. The only downside for me is the embark & disembark where you just have to compete with 400 or so people. Also, you breathe in 400 peoples farts.

    • jeppetto367 on 21/01/2020 - 10:19

      I believe the only Emirates flights out of MEL on the A380 are to Dubai. The flights via SIN are on a Dreamliner I think (or some form of Boeing).

      Phuket? on Qantas?

      • RhysNZ on 21/01/2020 - 10:28

        Jetstar.

        • UberIsCool on 21/01/2020 - 11:18

          That’s what I mean. It’s actually cheaper to book on Jetstar website than qantas using Jetstar.

          • UrMumsOnlyFan on 21/01/2020 - 23:00

            @UberIsCool: Not the same thing.

            Some might prefer direct/non-stop on Jetstar. I would prefer the Qantas + Jetstar Asia option (if the price is reasonable).

      • UrMumsOnlyFan on 21/01/2020 - 22:58

        Qantas to Singapore, then Jetstar Asia to Phuket. (Same for most Southeast Asia destinations.)

        If the Jetstar Asia flight is booked under a QF flight number, then there are various inclusions such as checked luggage, seat selection and food.

  • Alyaeri on 21/01/2020 - 10:10

    I haven't purchased a flight deal through a comparison website before - in this case, would I be purchasing through 'BYOJet' to get the discounted rate (they appear the cheapest when I 'select' the flights I want). Or can these be purchased directly through QANTAS/Emirates?

    • Heybargain on 21/01/2020 - 10:53

      Of course you can purchase these direct through Qantas on their website. But it might be more expensive than the fares listed here.

    • Aukay on 21/01/2020 - 11:14
      +2

      You'd be purchasing through the third party company for the discounted rate. Alternatively, you can purchase with Qantas, pay the higher fare and then claim the 'Price Promise' to get price match (i.e. a refund of the difference in fare). This only applies to Qantas flights.

      • Alyaeri on 21/01/2020 - 14:28

        Thanks for the tip! I'm a bit hesitant to purchase through BYOJet based on their reviews, so if I can get it directly through QANTAS I'd much rather that.

        • Alyaeri on 21/01/2020 - 22:04

          For anyone playing along at home, I ended up getting Universal Traveller to price beat, and purchased through them. Atleast there's an actual store to visit if something goes wrong, instead of being at the mercy of BYOJets phone support.

          Thanks for posting, OP!
