Day 1: Welcome to Singapore and the heart of the modern world architecture! Depending on the time of your arrival at Changi Airport (SIN) - most flights from Europe land either early morning or in the late afternoon, you can either take a shuttle to our accommodation in the city centre directly and meet us there or you come and join me for sightseeing directly (I will arrive in Singapore few days earlier). Don`t worry, either way, I will share detailed directions with you how to get to the centre on your own and where to meet :). If you arrive in the early morning, feel free to join me to the Botanic Gardens of Singapore. It is a very special place to visit for many reasons!

Day 2: The next day, we visit the most famous of Singapore`s districts: Chinatown. Here, we will have some traditional breakfast together and stroll along the market streets. And I am happy to introduce you to some delicious local specialties while on our walks around the hawker centres, where local budget-friendly authentical street food is a must-try. :) After filling up our stomachs, for the rest of the day, we embark on a trip to the past: the rural island of Pulau Ubin. It is an authentic island with a small active fishing kampong (village) and beautiful wetlands surrounding it. Originally named Pulau Batu Jubin for its granite quarries that once supplied building materials for iconic structures like the Istana (presidential office) and the Singapore-Johore Causeway, it is just a short 15-minute boat ride from the jetty. This serene island oasis is a beloved destination for both nature enthusiasts and those seeking a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. We wil take a bus or metro line to the jetty and then set over to the island by boat. The island is best explored by bicycles, so that is what we do! We cycle to the Chek Jawa Wetlands first, covering approximately 100 hectares in area. It is a unique natural area, where six major ecosystems – sandy beach, rocky beach, seagrass lagoon, coral rubble, mangroves and coastal forest - meet! After a lunch break we go to explore the rural village and the rubber and coconut plantations.

Kusu Island is the smallest of all the three and full of local myths and folklore surround the island, where the legend of the giant tortoise, a Malay man, and a Chinese man come to life. This is also one of the reasons why the island is habitat to many small and big turtoises. We can`t miss them while there! We explore the Chinese Da Bo Gong Temple (Kusu Temple) and climb up 152 steps to the top of the hill to visit the shrines of the Malay saints, where a panoramic view opens up.
