You've got to go to the beautiful Raffles Hotel and have a Singapore sling, the world famous cocktail. At least so you can say that you have done it.

We sneaked out the glasses and made a getaway in a 3mph peddle powered tuk tuk, driven by a 90 year old. Would not recommend that bit though since you would probably get 10 years in prison if you got caught.
Dont chew gum either.

Sentosa island in the daytime. Go to Smith Street near Chinatown in the evening for some decent cheap food. You will eat at tables on the street. But the food is fantastic. Try the black pepper crab

Can recommend raffles and the singapore sling also the zoo, we had breakfast with the orangutangs(think i spelt that wrong lol) it was fab. We also went to the tallest building(cant remember what its called) and had what they call high tea you get 360 degree views of singapore up there. Loads and Loads of markets to explore as well.

Hope you enjoy your stay there.

Urgh ! Singapore Sling!! Yes i've done it and i wish i hadn't $20 singapore dollars = around £8 -10 for a drink that is CAK!!!! Looked like strawberry milkshake with pineapple on the outside and tasted like crap, but hey i'm lager drinker, what would i know about cocktails????

BUT Raffles is an outstandingly beautiful place and the "long bar" is a sight to behold. There is something about about standing in the long bar and asking for a sling that is slightly "Casablanca" esque Love it!!! Do it!!!!
