When to Visit

Singapore’s tropical climate means it’s a great destination year-round. However, the best time to visit is during the cooler, drier months from February to April. The weather is more pleasant during this period, making it ideal for exploring outdoor attractions and enjoying the city’s numerous festivals.

November to January are typically the wettest due to the northeast monsoon season. Despite the rain, these months still offer a comfortable climate for travel and the advantage of fewer tourists. Indoor attractions like shopping malls, museums, and restaurants ensure plenty to do regardless of the weather.

Costs

Singapore is known for its range of options catering to different budgets. Budget travelers can expect to spend around $50-70 per day, covering hostel stays, meals at hawker centers, and public transportation. The city’s extensive public transit system makes it easy to navigate affordably.

For a mid-range experience, travelers might spend $100-150 per day, which includes comfortable hotel accommodations, dining in restaurants, and visiting paid attractions. For luxury travelers, Singapore offers high-end options, with daily expenses starting at $200 and above, covering stays in premium hotels, fine dining, and exclusive experiences.
