Best Time to Visit Singapore
If you are the type of person who enjoys shopping and the hustle and bustle of a vibrant city, then Singapore will be your playground.
Personally I would consider travelling to Singapore either in June, during the Great Singapore Sale, or between Nov - Dec during the Christmas season. My favourite time of year is Christmas and quite literally the entire shopping district will be decorated and lighted up from the start of Orchard Road to City Hall.
Food is never a problem on this island, where it is commonly said the people of Singapore 'live to eat'. Several times a year there will be cultural celebrations of the various ethnic races and food plays a big role in these celebrations.
The weather is pretty stable all year round, a balmy 28 - 30 degrees. Can be a bit humid for some, and during the rainy season it rains almost like clock work every afternoon.
