4 Types of Experiences To Rediscover Singapore

Need an escape, but don’t have time to leave the country to soak in the sights and sounds of a new destination?

The next best thing to do is to rediscover Singapore – and it’s not just about exploring a new part of Singapore that’s less traversed, but also delighting in new experiences that are now available on our little red dot. 

The kinds of experiences that can be enjoyed in Singapore are wide-ranging, but here are 4 types that are not to be missed. Give some of these experiences a try – you might end up rediscovering a side of Singapore that you’ve never imagined.

1. Wine and dine to your hearts content

Are you big on exploring new culinary experiences, or looking for ideas on what to treat your best friend who loves imbibing in a tipple or two? You might want to consider an experience that is all about wining and dining. If you’re into savouring the best of gins, give the tasting flight – which includes three 30ml samples of this botanical spirit – at The Gin Parlour a try!

2. Treat yourself to a staycation

In COVID-19 times, staycations are the new vacations. But if you’re the sort to prefer switching things up a little, why not consider combining a staycation with a private yacht trip? Start your break on a high note: hop on a yacht and head to Lazarus Island where you’ll spend a couple of hours relaxing and enjoying the tranquillity of the calm, clear waters, while indulging in free flow wines and snacks (including a cheese platter)! Then sail back to Sentosa Cove for your stay at the exclusive W Singapore, located in the picturesque enclave of Quayside Isle, and enjoy the views of the marina from your Marvelous Suite as the sun sets. 

3. Channel your creativity with workshops

Let your inner Picasso shine when you sign yourself up for art and craft workshops. They run the gamut from art jamming, pottery, skincare and aromatherapy creation, to even leather making, and the latter is where you’ll get to create personalised items like cardholders. If you’re a fan of the Singapore Airlines’ batik print, you’ll be excited to know that you can now craft your own leather notebook or cardholder – each debossed with the iconic motif, and paired with an exclusive batik sleeve.

4. Bond with your family

Take some time off your hectic schedule to create unforgettable memories with your loved ones. A top pick: embark on a flight simulator experience at Singapore Flyer’s Flight Experience, where you’ll get to learn how to captain a Boeing 737, or operate an F/A-18 fighter jet. Watch your loved ones eyes light up when they hear the roar of the afterburners as your family soars over some of the world’s most iconic cities, and take in the views of the stunning landscapes, all from the cockpit – this might just be the highlight of everyone’s year!
