Tips

If you prefer a shorter trip, reduce the Hong Kong stopover to one full day and allocate the extra time to explore more of Singapore’s neighborhoods, such as Kampong Glam or the Southern Ridges. Conversely, extend your stay in Hong Kong to three days to include a day trip to Lantau Island’s Tian Tan Buddha and Ngong Ping 360 cable car, or add an extra day in Singapore for a day‑trip to Pulau Ubin or the Jurong Bird Park. Both cities have excellent public transport, so purchasing an Octopus Card in Hong Kong and an EZ‑Link card in Singapore will streamline travel and save money.
