Itinerary
Upon arrival at Changi Airport, our representatives will be waiting to greet you and transfer you to the neoteric 5-star PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering hotel located in the outskirts of Singapore, at upper Pickering St. This is where you will spend the rest of your day as you please. The PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering hotel is an ideal location for sojourners who have a taste for prestige! This 89 m (292 ft.) massive haven is a true wonder to behold, with its luxury finishing and amazing street view finally glossed with the cerulean blue skies overlooking the 'hotel-in-a-garden.’ The PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering hotel is situated in close proximity to a lot of other local attractions to get you busy. Immerse in the natural feel of the Singaporean river that lies at the heart of Clarke Quay as you grab some food in the waterside restaurants. The light effects at night on the waters and the stunning artistry on display bring this bustling place to life. Enjoy one of the finest cocktails as you visit Fancy, just a 3 mins walk from PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering hotel. They serve one of the best cocktails with a minimalistic concept in mind. You've got to try the Rose cocktail, a refreshing mix of ginger, peach, beer, gin and rose finally topped with a sage leaf. Visit Raffles city and enjoy a fun time shopping for your favourite items while keeping a close watch from the viewing room on the 28th floor while in UOB plaza one. You can always choose to stay back at the hotel and enjoy its luxury amenities. Have a relaxing feel of the sun brimming as you enjoy a rejuvenating sunbath at the sun terrace or indulge in a soothing spa session. The scorching sun can be difficult, so the see-through outdoor pool or 275m garden walk high above the street level can be just the thing you need to cool off. |
Enjoy a delightful breakfast as you get ready to explore the wonders of Singapore. Your tour starts as you drive past the Padang, an open field with lots of activities, the historic Parliament, Singapore's Cricket club, the national gallery that houses both the supreme court and city hall and a visit to the civic district where modern Singapore began. The civic district is where modern Singapore's architectural, cultural, and historical heritage began. Feed your eyes on the now-restored buildings while on tour as you prepare your mind in readiness for more heightened exploits. As we forge ahead on this expedition, we encounter two fascinating landmarks. First in view is the Marina Bay sand, a gigantic structure with three towers linked together by a slightly placed structure which you will come to know as Skypark. Ahead, you will meet Singapore's mascot Merlion; a mythological glass reinforced cement statue with a lion's head and the body of a fish. Witness history and a little bit of myth in the Chinese oldest ‘Temple of fortunes’ in Singapore as you visit the Thian Hock Keng temple. Carefully observe while taking every step the paintings and images of deities, imposing columns, fascinating sculptures, and tiles designed with patterns of mythical creatures as you experience a feast for your senses. |

Driving past Chinatown, your next destination is the UNESCO world heritage site-botanical garden, where you will relish the captivating display of 60,000 orchid plants with different colour varieties and hybrid orchids named after celebrities and notable people around the world. And lastly, we will hit Little India, where your senses awaken as you visit this cultural enclave. You will find colourfully painted shophouses, temples, and mosques. Along the main drag, you will find canteens and hip eateries closely knitted to shops that have on display exotic fruits, orchid garlands, gold jewellery, colourful silks, jasmine, and local spices. |
After your breakfast at the hotel, you will meet with our representatives at the hotel lobby, ready to transfer you to Capella, a Classy 5-star hotel in Sentosa Island, where you will spend the rest of your day at your leisure. Rejuvenate at its indulgent spa treatment to a lazy afternoon by the pool. Whisk away in the Capella Library for a peaceful oasis boasting personalized service, complimentary fruit, soft drinks, tea and coffee. Take a lovely beach stroll within walking distance from the hotel and bask in the sunshine. For those in purse for adventure, take a bike ride around the Island traversing its attractive landmarks and astounding attractions. As you move around, you will see the abandoned Pekan & Ubin quarries in a clear view as the sun paints a clear picture of Its surroundings on the water surface at its centre. Visit one of Sentosa’s thrill locations, the skyline luge Sentosa to have an exciting adrenaline-filled thrill ride down its 688 metre Dragon trail or 628-metre jungle trail on a luge. Hover around treetops on a 4-seater chairlift and sight some fascinating views of Sentosa. |
While the Sentosa island, Singapore, offers a plethora of dazzling attractions and fun epic adventures for explorers, a 45-mins ferry ride off the shores of the Sentosa Island lies the enchanting St Lazarus and St John Island awaiting your presence. Take a bike ride around this bewitching island bustling with arrays of wildlife and its picturesque beaches. While cycling, you can easily spot picnic benches and tables plastered all over the Island. Steal a little fun time with the cats who occasionally wander about the island planes; bring some cat food if you wish to make some new feline friends. Go with your floatable picnic mats and have an exciting time at the beachside as the soft white sand of the St. Lazarus beach gently caresses your feet. Take a refreshing dip into the blue waters and have fun while at it. Keep a close watch for the St John National marine laboratory, which is just a few minutes' walk from the shores of St. john. Have a peek at the captivating seawater aquarium and learn about the Marina conservation and biodiversity in the waters of Singapore. Shuttle back to your accommodation at the 5-star hotel and relive the wonderful moments you have had while on this fun-filled expedition. Tonight you will enjoy dinner at Cassia restaurant where you will be served authentic Cantonese with a unique twist. |
In readiness for your departure, you will be served breakfast at your luxury accommodation after which you will head out at check-out time, and our representative will transfer you to Changi International Airport for your flight onward.

Cancellation by The Tour Operator
The walks take place in very special wilderness settings. The tour operator is at the mercy of nature in all her beauty and all her fury. The tour operator will under no circumstance knowingly place at risk the health and well-being of our guests and guides. In the case of natural threats, acts of God and the like (e.g. bushfires, impassable snow, etc) the tour operator may need to cancel a walk with very little notice. In some cases, this can occur after the walk has commenced. The tour operator reserves the right to cancel any walk up to 60 days prior to departure if a minimum of 4 walkers are unable to meet for a tour. If the tour operator needs to cancel for any reason, the cost of the walk or any other costs associated with travel to the designated pick up point, overnight accommodation, meals, etc will not be covered by the Onlyluxe Travel and therefore we strongly recommend travel insurance be taken out prior to travel.
Force Majeure
'Force Majeure' means (without restriction) any event which Onlyluxe Travel or its third party providers could not, even with due care, foresee or avoid. Force Majeure covers events such as, but not limited to, adverse weather conditions, fire and all similar events beyond our control. In the case of Force Majeure Onlyluxe Travel will not accept liability, and reserves the right to change and cancel trips.
Evacuations
In rare circumstances, due to injury or unforeseen illness, the tour operator may need to evacuate you from a remote part of the walk. Helicopter evacuations are expensive and in most cases will be at a cost to the customer.
For Australian residents, under the Australian Government Medicare Act, it is prohibited for any domestic travel insurance product to provide any financial reimbursement with regard to ambulance or air ambulance services. We therefore strongly advise our customers to take specific ambulance cover through their health insurance provider. Evacuation cost will not be covered by the Onlyluxe Travel and therefore it is also strongly recommended that our customers take out travel insurance to cover (amongst other things) the costs associated with evacuation.
Travel Insurance
In view of the heavy cancellation penalties applied to cancelled reservations in certain circumstances, we strongly recommends suitable travel insurance be purchased at the time the holding deposit is paid. We recommend insurance cover that covers any loss which may be suffered due to cancellation. We also strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance against loss of baggage and medical expenses.
