Singapore Family Fun

Overview

Singapore is the easiest international trip you can take with children, and this itinerary leans into that. One full day at Universal Studios, one on Sentosa for the aquarium and cable car, Gardens by the Bay in the evening when the Supertrees light up, and the Night Safari tram. Everything runs on the MRT, so no one spends the holiday in traffic.

• Universal Studios Singapore full-day pass
• S.E.A. Aquarium and Sentosa cable car
• Gardens by the Bay with the Supertree light show
• Night Safari tram ride
• City tour including Little India and Chinatown
