The Question
Public Question Asked by Gun about Singapore
Looking at just moving about at night life and eating haunts, divine local desserts and some scenic night romantic views... not clubbing spots where smoky conditions hover unhealthily. Can you arrange or do you have yr own car/vehicle for the guiding tour too? Let me know... its our honeymoon trip as 2-day stopover enroute to Australia & NZ. May consider catching up again on return stopover after 3 weeks by Down Under. We are in our mid 50's incidentally... ;)

Hi Gun,
I am afraid I won't be able to take you on tour on the specified dates as I am not available on those days.
Sorry about that.
Regards...

We'll I suggest you two to try the Night Safari (A night tour ride in the zoo,looking at the might animals followed by a lovely dinner.)
If you guys like eating by the sea, try some nice food places at Sentosa, such as the Sand Bar. Or some restaurant with good sea views over at VivoCity. I'm 18yo, taking my driving license, and by September,If things goes well,I'll be getting my license!!! For the type of cars,it's up to you,I can rent the car according to your likings,Ifnot I'm driving a Nissan Sunny.

Hi, If you are looking at moving about the nightlife, you can start with a stroll along
1) Esplanade and have a BBQ seafood there(note, some smoke expected but managable).Later, you can take a romantic Singapore River Boat Cruise and take in the sights of the Singpore River and I'll meet the two of you at teh other side of the bank. If you are so inclined, you can also take the Giant Ferris Wheel at the Singapore Flyer, now you get a helicopter view of SIngapore.For great desserts, check out Bugis Street or Pagodo Street in Chinatown which serves great egg pudding the traditional way. They also have new delights like manago smoothies with incre-cream or green tea desserts.
If you are into late night shopping, you can go to Mustafa in Little India for souvenirs on Saturday.or satay at Lau Pa Sat.Or go wine tasting at Mount Faber or a local pub, no smoke, just a cozy place to taste wine and chill.
Must -try food in Singapore includes Satay, Laksa,Barbeque seafood,local desserts like red bean soup,custard tarts,durians(???)

Thanks An for letting me know. Not to worry, its still early at this stage to sort out and decide who is able and willing to help guide or provide whatever tips or recommendations to help us enjoy our short stint/stay in Singapore.
