Preparing for Singapore: Tips & Hints

1. Despite the fact that Singapore is quite a calm and safe city, travelers should not forget about basic safety rules. It is not recommended to go to remote districts in the evenings and make walks with valuable items and large sums of money.
2. You will need to follow the order on the streets of the city - do not litter, smoke and eat in non-designated areas. Breaking of this rule can lead you to very costly fines.
3. During your travels around the city feel free to ask the police to help you – there are policemen literally on every street. They will help you navigate the city and tell how to get to main attractions and places of interest.
