OVERSEAS GUESTS

For those flying in, we recommend booking flights as early as possible to secure a good price. For UK-based guests, we have personally found that booking a direct flight makes for a less stressful journey, and have been large fans of airlines such as Emirates and Singapore Airlines.

We have a list of activities planned for the week leading up to the wedding, so we recommend arriving a few days early if possible so you can join us for a few fun-filled days in Singapore.

Suggested Flying Dates --

Option 1: Arrive Early & Ease Into It
Perfect if you'd like to beat the jet lag and explore Singapore at a relaxed pace before the festivities.

- Arrive: Monday, 18 May 2026
- Depart: Monday, 25 May 2026

Option 2: Quick Trip Around the Wedding
Ideal for those short on time who want to join just for the wedding celebrations.

- Arrive: Thursday, 21 May 2026
- Depart: Monday, 25 May 2026

Getting Around --

Many of the planned events are much easier to reach by taxi or lift-share than by public transport.

There is no Uber in Singapore, but there is a similar private car hire service called Grab. It's worth downloading the app ahead of time if you're planning to use it.
Grab also have options for children or babies that require car seats, but you'll need to specifically book the child car option.

There is also the CDG Zig app, which is the official taxi app within Singapore, and offers similar ride-hailing services.
Unlike private car hire, actual taxis don't legally need to put children under 1.35m in a car seat, allowing for a little more flexibility.

Consensus online suggests that Zig is often slightly cheaper, and better in the daytime, while Grab has faster waiting times in the evenings.

Singapore also has a good rail system, known as the MRT, which is a very cheap and efficient way of getting around, often only a dollar or two (~£1).

You can pay just using a Mastercard or Visa card, or can buy an EZ-Link travelcard.

Tourist Tips --

A few tips for those who’ve never visited Singapore...

  • You will likely need to fill out a Singapore Arrival Card (filled out online) up to 3 days before arrival in the country
  • The currency is Singapore Dollars (commonly referred to as SGD / S$ / $)
    • For UK guests, $1 = roughly 58p
  • Jaywalking & littering are illegal and commonly fined
  • Singapore is HOT - the air conditioning is great for while you’re indoors, but pack clothes for hot weather
  • It’s hry cash for foostalls, sops & attractions that may not accept card
  • The tap water is safe for drinking
  • If you use a public dining place (“Hawker centre”) make sure to return your tray - there are tray return points for both Halal and non-Halal at such places
