Soon, the streets of the Lion City will be filled with Swifties from all around the world, waiting for their turn at the Eras Tour. While the concert is the main highlight of the trip, it doesn’t have to be the only experience you, your loved ones and friends can get.
Klook, the leading travel and experiences platform, encourages Swifties to embrace the new love language of shared experiences and take a quick detour to see all that Singapore has to offer.
Magic, madness, heaven, SING! Here are some of the incredible things Singapore has to show:
1. The magic awaits you, right as you set foot in Singapore
Unbeknownst to many, the adventure begins right as you step on Singapore soil! Taylor Swift herself was amazed to witness a forest in Changi Airport’s Terminal 3 upon her arrival 13 years ago, and now that it’s had years of changes and improvements, tourists can look forward to even more attractions. Families looking to relax and absorb the scenic views of the airport can visit Canopy Park. Canopy Park is home to the Discovery Slides, Foggy Bowls, Petal Garden, and Topiary Walk. To get a scenic look of the airport from above, a stroll through the Mastercard® Canopy Bridge which highlights the iconic HSBC Rain Vortex seen all over social media.
Other groups looking for activities in the airport can take a competitive adventure with their friends and family at the English-garden-inspired, Hedge Maze, for a botanical experience, or the Mirror Maze for a venue of optical illusions that challenge your perception as you make your way out of the maze.
Finally, for a thrilling experience, visitors can walk and play along the Bouncing Net and Walking Net, which are suspended 25 meters above ground, bringing the usual walk and play up a whole new level (literally).

Officially start the trip with a bang, by exploring the S.E.A. Aquarium at Resorts World Sentosa, one of the largest aquariums in the world which is home to over 100,000 marine life representing 1,000 species in more than 45 different habitats. However, if a school of fish isn’t your cup of tea, how about an array of ice cream flavors? The Museum of Ice Cream Singapore is perfect for beating the Singapore heat! This museum serves unlimited ice cream treats as you learn about the beloved snack’s history across 14 multi-sensory installations but if that doesn’t tickle your fancy, Skyline Luge will. Part-go-kart, part-toboggan, Skyline Luge will have you racing on its three-wheeled luge carts on four purpose-built tracks with hairpin corners, exhilarating tunnels, and downhill slopes. To top it all off, after arriving at the bottom of the track, head back up using the Sentosa Skyride for a bird’s eye view of Sentosa and to race all over again!
3. Jump then fall into the neighborhoods of Singapore

When in Singapore, itineraries must include visiting the vibrant neighborhoods that showcase diverse cultures. Starting with Chinatown, make sure to immerse yourself in the neighborhood’s history by going on the Singapore Chinatown Heritage Walking Tour. With this tour, you will get the perfect blend of past and present while stumbling upon unique trinket shops, award-winning restaurants and iconic locations. Afterwards, head down to Little India, where the streets are filled with bustling Indian markets, stalls serving Indian cuisine, and historical temples. Lastly, situated in the heart of Kampong Glam, taking a trip to Haji Lane is a MUST as it is known for its colorful architecture, street art, eclectic bars and cafes, and trendy vintage shops. Pasalubong anyone?
4. Shake it off and try good food~

Traveling isn’t complete without trying out local specialties. To start the day, have an authentic Singaporean breakfast at Ya Kun Kaya Toast and indulge in the bread’s buttery goodness, paired with eggs and coffee or tea. For a light lunch, try out the wide variety of satay from Ina Satay at Lau Pa Sat. Their dishes are paired with a secret traditional peanut satay sauce that has been perfected for many generations. For a hearty meal for dinner, The White Restaurant is the top choice. This restaurant is consistently hailed as the number one food option since 1999. The Original Sembawang White Beehoon is their specialty alongside renowned dishes like Hainanese Chicken Rice and Chilli Crab which are all exceptional in terms of flavor.
5. Get in a getaway car and see crowd-favorite places

Gardens by the Bay, The ArtScience Museum and Universal Studios Singapore are popular for a reason. These three attractions guarantee all ages to have a memorable experience. With its cooled conservatories, floral structures and waterfront gardens, Gardens by the Bay will leave you in awe of its picturesque landscapes. On the other hand, The ArtScience Museum offers an immersion with multi-sensory exhibits and 21 different gallery spaces that will take you on a journey to understand the harmonious co-existence of art and science. Although, if you’re looking for some thrill, Universal Studios Singapore is the way to go. The theme park is home to six different themed zones filled with exciting rides based on blockbuster films that will surely get the heart pumping.
