Hand-picked moments that define luxury in Singapore

Supertrees illuminated at Gardens by the Bay with Marina Bay Sands beyond, Singapore

Gardens by the Bay & Cloud Forest

Wander beneath the iconic Supertrees as their canopies ignite with the nightly Garden Rhapsody light show, then step inside the Cloud Forest conservatory — a 35-metre indoor waterfall cloaked in 60,000 tropical plants. Your private guide unlocks after-hours access and the best vantage points for photography above the Marina Bay skyline.

Michelin Hawker-to-Fine-Dining Food Tour

Singapore is the only city in the world where hawker stalls hold Michelin stars — your curated food journey begins with a char kway teow and laksa tasting at a heritage hawker centre, then escalates to a private chef's table dinner at one of the city's acclaimed restaurants such as Odette, Les Amis or Labyrinth. A dedicated food guide handles all reservations and context.

Sentosa Beach Clubs & Island Escapes

Sentosa Island offers a curated world of white-sand beaches, luxury beach clubs such as Tanjong Beach Club and ONE°15 Marina, and resort-style pools just minutes from the city centre. Unmatched Journeys arranges bespoke Sentosa day packages — private cabanas, spa treatments at Capella's Auriga Spa and sunset cocktails above the South China Sea.

Supertrees with lush tropical plants at Gardens by the Bay, Singapore

Singapore Zoo Night Safari

The world's first nocturnal wildlife park draws you into 40 hectares of tropical jungle where over 2,500 animals roam in open, naturalistic habitats. Board the tram as Malayan tigers, fishing cats and Himalayan griffon vultures emerge after dark — a genuinely extraordinary experience for couples and families alike, enhanced with a private guide and pre-safari dinner.

Private Yacht Charter to the Southern Islands

Escape the city aboard a bespoke chartered vessel heading to Singapore's pristine Southern Islands — Lazarus Island, St John's Island or Kusu Island — for crystal-clear snorkelling, a catered beach picnic and a swim in waters you'll share with almost no one else. The Marina Bay skyline shimmers on the horizon throughout the return voyage at golden hour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Singapore

When is the best time to visit Singapore? +
Singapore is a year-round destination, but the most pleasant periods are February through April and July through September, when rainfall is lightest and humidity eases. The city-state hosts the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix every September, the Great Singapore Sale in June and July, and the dazzling Deepavali light-up in Little India in October. The festive December season is lively and vibrant but busier, so early booking is essential.
How much does a luxury trip to Singapore cost? +
A well-curated luxury short break typically ranges from $3,000 to $12,000 or more per person, depending on hotel tier, duration and experiences chosen. Iconic hotels such as Raffles Singapore and Capella Singapore start from around $800–$900 per night for suites. Private food tours, Night Safari experiences, chartered yacht days and fine-dining dinners add meaningful cost but exceptional value. Unmatched Journeys provides fully itemised, transparent proposals before any commitment.
Do UAE or GCC nationals need a visa for Singapore? +
UAE passport holders do not require a visa to enter Singapore and can stay for up to 30 days on arrival — one of the most convenient entry arrangements for Gulf travellers in Asia. GCC nationals from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman similarly enjoy visa-free access. Residents holding other passports should verify requirements via Singapore's ICA website, though most nationalities enjoy visa-free or visa-on-arrival access.
What are the must-see attractions in Singapore? +
Gardens by the Bay — including the Supertrees and Cloud Forest — and the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark infinity pool experience are unmissable. The Singapore Zoo Night Safari is among the world's finest wildlife encounters after dark, while Jewel Changi Airport's 40-metre indoor Rain Vortex waterfall is a destination in itself. Beyond the headline sights, the Peranakan shophouses of Katong, the heritage enclave of Chinatown and a private food tour across hawker centres offer a richer, more personal Singapore.
Is Singapore safe for travellers? +
Singapore is consistently ranked as one of the safest cities in the world and requires virtually no special precautions beyond normal urban awareness. Crime rates are extremely low, healthcare is world-class, the transport network is immaculate and the rule of law is rigorously maintained. Tap water is safe to drink. Singapore's Changi Airport frequently ranks as the world's best, making arrivals and departures stress-free. Unmatched Journeys provides 24/7 concierge support throughout your stay.
How do I get around Singapore? +
Singapore's MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) is one of Asia's most efficient metro systems and connects virtually every major attraction, hotel and neighbourhood. For luxury travellers, a private chauffeured car or hired sedan is the most effortless option — especially useful for Sentosa transfers, Night Safari evenings and Changi Airport runs. Grab (Singapore's leading ride-hailing app) is excellent as a fallback. The entire city-state is compact enough that almost nowhere is more than 30–40 minutes by road.
What makes Singapore's food scene so special, and what should I eat? +
Singapore has more Michelin-starred hawker stalls than any other city in the world — meaning street food and fine dining coexist at the highest global level. Must-eats include Liao Fan's Michelin-starred soya sauce chicken rice at Chinatown Complex, chilli crab at Jumbo Seafood on the East Coast, and laksa at 328 Katong. For fine dining, Odette (three Michelin stars), Zén and Les Amis represent the pinnacle. Unmatched Journeys curates bespoke food journeys pairing both worlds in a single curated day.
