Great guide for an interesting city
This is a good guide to Singapore and a great reference to carry on your travels in the city, it's always a bright idea to bring a pocket size guide, to save rooting in your bag every time you need a direction!

Sightseeing recommended and brief but informative outlines given of what to do and where to go, A-Z section on tips, opening hours, points to note for foreign travellers etc. Mini map useful to get your bearings.
Highly recommend Berlitz.

Great little pocket guide
This is a great little pocket guide. It's literally pocket sized and will be used for our 3 night stay in Singapore. It covers all the basics and has lots of helpful tips and information in there. Really pleased with it. Recommended to you all.

Brilliant!
Brilliant book for the price, full of stuff to do and things to see. Maybe could've included some phrase or translation pages, but other than that - perfect!
