I decided to add Kuala Lumpur to my Singapore travel itinerary when I took 1 week vacation from work. These two cities are quite near to each anyway. 8 days to tour Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Genting felt just right. It was not too rushed nor too long. It took me a month to piece my travel itinerary all together just so I get to travel between these two cities… [Read more...]
There are numerous options on how to get from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur – via bus, train or flight. It took me sometime to choose but finally decided to do our transfer via bus. Luxury buses plying Singapore and Kuala Lumpur route are plenty with strategic pick-up and drop-off locations right in the city center. Also, the transit time via bus… [Read more...]

We found the Singapore Zoo and Night Safari to be on the same place upon our arrival. So we purchased a combination… [Read more...]
We made most of our last day crossing out our bucket list of things to do in Singapore. Since we have few hours left before we head back home in the afternoon, we woke up very early and had a walkathon from our hotel to Raffles Hotel Singapore, Esplanade, Merlion Park, China Town and Orchard Road. What we loved about Singapore is that is is a very compact… [Read more...]
