But the other day, we ran a poll on our Instagram and so many of you asked for tips for first time visitors to Singapore, so we thought we would pen a day-by-day itinerary for all of you who are visiting Singapore anytime soon. Everything we’ve included in our itinerary below is either included in the Singapore Explorer Pass or is free of charge, so you don’t have to spend even an additional penny to have the BEST time on your first trip to Singapore 🙂 The Singapore Explorer Pass offers access to any one of 11 attractions available at Sentosa but we would highly recommend the Skyline Luge, irrespective of whether you’re 6 or 60 years old. We definitely suggest stopping by the former house of Tan Teng Niah in Little India and Masjid Sultan near Arab Street sometime during the morning Wrap up your trip to Singapore by visiting some of it’s premier attractions.

In addition to the cost of flights and hotel bookings, expect to spend about USD 70 per person per day (on transfers, occasional activities, and 2 meals per day) when you budget for your trip. One week Itinerary for a holiday in Zanzibar When you are crafting your itinerary for a week long holiday in Zanzibar, we would suggest spending 2-3 days of the week in historic Stone Town and 4-5 days of the week in a beach-side hotel. We’d highly recommend combining your stay at a beach-side hotel with a short stay in the historical and cultural capital – Stone Town, which also happens to be a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Most tourists visit Stone Town on a day trip but we recommend spending at least 2-3 days absorbing it’s sights and sounds.

Mahabaleshwar is a 3-4 hour drive away from Pune and 5-7 hour drive from Mumbai depending on the time of day. The hotel’s signature heated pool, overlooking the Western Ghats, is one of the features that makes the property so popular with residents of Pune and Maharashtra. We enjoyed an early morning class of aqua aerobics at the pool and relished the view, but our favourite part is the view from the balconies of the rooms at Le Meridien. Mahabaleshwar boasts of dozens of truly spectacular viewpoints that offer sweeping views of the Western Ghats.

Tucked away in the highlands of Bali in Ubud, Kayon Resort offers spacious rooms, many of which come with their own bath tubs and private pools. Despite being located in the heart of nature, The Kayon Resort is close to Ubud’s centre, so you have lots of local restaurants and markets at your disposal. Some alternatives include Desa Visesa (gorgeous villas with private pools and floating breakfasts) and Maya Ubud (stunning spa and great rooms, but the vibe is more family-friendly than romantic) If you want a mix of nature and beaches, then Uluwatu is the ideal area for you. Do be careful not to book a room at The Mulia Resort, the sprawling counter part of The Mulia Suites as it lacks the intimate boutique feel that makes The Mulia Suites ideal for a honeymoon or romantic getaway.
