Dates are flexible. This day-by-day plan is provisional until you choose exact travel dates.
Fly from Bengaluru to Singapore Changi Airport; the flight is roughly 4½–5 hours, but allow about 8–10 hours door to door for getting to the airport, check-in, immigration, baggage and the ride into town. Choose a flight that leaves enough time to clear arrival formalities and check in comfortably. If you arrive during the day and have energy, spend about 1–1½ hours at Jewel Changi Airport for the HSBC Rain Vortex and indoor gardens; check the waterfall’s operating hours before you go, as they can vary. Keep in mind that Jewel is landside, so you’ll need to clear immigration first. A taxi or ride-hail to a Marina Bay or Bugis hotel is the easiest option with luggage; the MRT is cheaper if your arrival time, connection and bags make it practical.
Allow 1–2 hours to check in and rest. For a shared mid-range double room in Marina Bay or Bugis, budget around ₹5,000–₹9,000 per person for the night. Later, head to Gardens by the Bay for an easy dusk stroll through the outdoor gardens and waterfront; allow 1½–2 hours, and check the forecast and any current access notices. The outdoor gardens are generally free, while the conservatories and other timed-entry attractions need separate tickets—book ahead if you want to visit them. Walk to Satay by the Bay for a relaxed hawker-style dinner; allow about an hour and budget S$10–25 (approximately ₹650–₹1,625) per person. For this arrival day, a sensible estimate for the hotel, dinner and local transfers is roughly ₹6,000–₹12,000 per person, excluding flights and any paid attractions.
Start at Buddha Tooth Relic Temple; allow 1–1.5 hours to see the temple and museum. Dress modestly, keep your voice low and check the museum’s current visiting hours before setting out, as access can vary. Admission is generally free. From your hotel, take the MRT to Chinatown and walk; the temple is a short stroll from the station. For lunch, head to nearby Maxwell Food Centre and give yourself about an hour to choose and eat. Hawker stalls vary in hours, so a little flexibility helps; budget around S$8–18 (₹520–₹1,170) per person.
Take the MRT or a taxi to National Gallery Singapore; allow 2–3 hours for its Singaporean and Southeast Asian collections in the former City Hall and Supreme Court buildings. Check current admission prices and opening hours before visiting; as a guide, adult admission for international visitors is often around S$20 (about ₹1,300), with exhibitions and rates subject to change. From the gallery, walk towards Merlion Park—roughly 15–20 minutes—or take a short taxi ride. Spend 30–45 minutes by the waterfront for the classic skyline views, and bring water if the afternoon is hot.
Finish at Lau Pa Sat, about a 15–20-minute walk from Merlion Park or a short ride by taxi. Its historic market hall is a lively place for dinner; budget around S$12–30 (₹780–₹1,950) per person, depending on what you order. Hawker and satay-street activity can vary by day and time, so check what’s operating when you arrive. For the return, use the nearby MRT or book a taxi; allow extra time if you’re travelling during the evening rush.
Head to Mount Faber for the Singapore Cable Car ride over the harbour to Sentosa. From central Singapore, allow roughly 25–40 minutes by MRT and on foot to HarbourFront, then follow signs for the Mount Faber Line; the cable car itself takes only about 15 minutes each way, but budget 1–1.5 hours for queues and views. Check the route’s operating status and ticket options before leaving; a round trip is typically around S$35–40 (₹2,275–₹2,600) per adult. On Sentosa, continue to Palawan Beach for a relaxed 1.5–2-hour stroll and the rope-bridge walk to its southernmost-point viewpoint. Bring water and sun protection—the beach is pleasant, but the midday heat is no joke.
Allow 2–3 hours for the marine exhibits at S.E.A. Aquarium, now known as Singapore Oceanarium; check its current opening hours and book admission ahead, as the name, hours and ticket details may differ from older listings. Budget roughly S$50–60 (₹3,250–₹3,900) per adult, subject to the ticket type. Then head to Malaysian Food Street for lunch—allow about an hour and S$10–25 (₹650–₹1,625) per person. Food outlets on Sentosa can change, so confirm that this venue is operating before you set off; if it is, choose a stall, find a seat and take a proper break before the evening show.
Finish at Wings of Time on Sentosa’s Siloso Beach. Check the current performance schedule and book a suitable showtime in advance; entry depends on ticket availability, and it’s worth arriving early enough to find your seats without rushing. Allow about an hour including arrival and seating, and budget roughly S$19–30 (₹1,235–₹1,950) per adult, depending on the seat and ticket option. For the day’s named activities, set aside approximately S$114–155 (₹7,400–₹10,100) per person, excluding local transport and any extras.
Take the MRT to Botanic Gardens station, then wander the leafy paths of Singapore Botanic Gardens for 1.5–2 hours; the gardens are generally open daily from 5am to midnight and are free to enter. Set aside another 1–1.5 hours for the National Orchid Garden, inside the gardens. It has a separate admission charge—budget roughly S$15 (about ₹975) per adult, but check current prices and opening hours before you go. Wear comfortable shoes and bring water; the garden is expansive, and the heat builds quickly.
From the gardens, allow around 20–30 minutes by taxi or roughly 30–40 minutes by public transport to Tiong Bahru Market. Browse the stalls and have a casual hawker lunch; budget S$8–18 (about ₹520–₹1,170) per person. Hawker stalls often wind down in the afternoon, and individual schedules vary, so aim to arrive around lunchtime rather than late. Afterward, stroll to Tiong Bahru Bakery for coffee and a pastry—allow about 45 minutes and budget another S$8–18 (about ₹520–₹1,170) per person.
Finish at ION Orchard, around 15–25 minutes from Tiong Bahru by taxi or a little longer by public transport. Give yourself 1–2 hours to browse, cool off in the air-conditioning or take a break at one of the cafés. For this day, allow roughly S$31–51 (about ₹2,015–₹3,315) per person for the orchid-garden entry, lunch and bakery stop, excluding transport and any shopping; check attraction prices and exchange rates before setting your budget.
Spend your last few hours in Kampong Glam, the heritage quarter around Bugis. Allow about 1–1.5 hours to stroll the lanes and admire Sultan Mosque from outside. If you hope to enter, check visitor access and dress requirements first; access may be limited around prayer times. From your hotel, take the MRT to Bugis and walk, or use a taxi or ride-hail if you’re carrying luggage. Keep bags at your hotel or use airport luggage storage rather than hauling them through the neighbourhood.
Wander Haji Lane for about 45–60 minutes, browsing its independent shops and street art; shop opening times vary, so it’s liveliest later in the morning. Then have your final Singapore meal at Zam Zam Restaurant, known for its murtabak and biryani. Budget roughly S$10–25 per person (about ₹650–₹1,625) and allow an hour. Leave a generous buffer before heading to the airport, especially if you’re travelling at a busy time.
Travel from Kampong Glam or your hotel to Changi Airport by MRT or taxi/ride-hail; allow around 30–60 minutes for the city-to-airport leg, depending on your starting point and traffic. Plan the departure around your booked flight and reach the airport with adequate time for international check-in, immigration and baggage. The flight to Bengaluru is roughly 4½–5 hours; budget about 8–10 hours door to door, including the airport transfer and formalities. For the full trip, an indicative budget is ₹90,000–₹1,50,000 per person sharing accommodation, though actual costs vary with dates, availability and exchange rates.
