Best Time To Visit Singapore
It’s always sunny in Singapore
The best time to visit Singapore depends on what you wish to see and do. True to its location in Southeast Asia, Singapore generally remains hot and humid all year round with a tropical climate.
July-September is the festive season – a great time to explore the many facets of Singapore. The February to April months, between the ‘summers’ and ‘winters’, are quite pleasant. These months too could be considered the best time to visit Singapore. There are plenty of outdoor activities you can do during this period, such as visit Sentosa Island and the Singapore zoo, considered some of the best things to do in Singapore. This is also when you can experience a number of festivals that are both cultural and traditional.
The hottest months are May and June with temperatures often climbing into the high 90s. The wettest months or least favorable time for tourists are from November to January. This is technically the monsoon season when showers can last for long periods of time, though reasonable temperatures still prevail.

What to Pack for Singapore
Because of its location, the average temperature in Singapore is steady all year round. It ranges between 77 and 88°F and humidity is high, usually between 70 % – 80 %. With weather that reliable, this is certainly an outdoors destination. We advise coming with some sun-smart gear; a hat, strong sunscreen lotion and most importantly some comfortable, light clothing – including comfortable shoes – for gliding around the country. Just to be on the safe side, rain gear is advised if you are travelling between December and March.

“We’ve worked with Enchanting Travels on more than ten trips now………….many have been 3-5 week adventures that require tremendous attention to detail in remote parts of the world. We have never been disappointed–only incredibly delighted! Anita was amazing to work with for Sri Lanka/Southeast Asia. I had a very specific wish list and she made sure I crossed everything off of it! The itinerary was geared to our interests and the pace we prefer. Divya kept a close eye on us throughout to ensure that things went smoothly. Working with Enchanting for so many years has allowed us to build relationships that increase the quality of our experiences as time goes on. Not only do they know the best places to see throughout the world but now the bonus is that they know US! These trips keep getting better. We run out of superlatives in trying to explain just how outstanding our experiences have been since we started working with Enchanting. As long as we can drag our suitcases to an airport, we will continue to plan meaningful, life changing adventures with them. Many thanks to the entire Enchanting Team for all of the efforts in making this trip so memorable!”

“Enchanting Travels and their staff put together a trip of a lifetime. We hadn’t traveled to Asia before and were nervous about what to expect or how to navigate once we were there. We also really didn’t know what we wanted to do other than a few expectations. We went to four countries with multiple hotels, flights and boat excursions. I cannot believe that the 5 week trip went off with out any hitches! Everything was so smooth and effortless. We did not worry about anything the whole time we were there. It was comforting to know that our trip coordinator was there for us if we needed her and she certainly responded quickly if we did have a need or question. The choices for hotels that Enchanting Travels recommended were superb and the guides and driver were knowledgeable and fun. I can not speak more highly of all of their services and plan on using them again for another big trip.”
