Singapore to Bangalore Flights

Tips for travellers from India

Serangoon Road is a useful short-stay base for Serangoon Road restaurants and the Downtown and North East MRT lines. City Hall works better for the National Gallery and riverfront, while Marina Bay puts the waterfront close by but separates it from the small shops around Tekka Centre. Decide which cluster matters before choosing a hotel; a place near an MRT entrance can be more useful than a central-looking map pin across a large road junction.

Changi’s MRT station serves Terminals 2 and 3. The airport branch requires a change at Tanah Merah for the East West Line towards town, while Expo provides an interchange with the Downtown Line. This distinction matters for hotels near Bugis or Serangoon Road. Jewel is on the public side of the airport, so a visit during a connection requires the appropriate entry permission and a return through departure formalities. Gardens by the Bay’s outdoor grounds and its ticketed conservatories need different amounts of time; a walk through the gardens does not include admission to every attraction. Keep Sentosa as a separate outing from the civic district, and group the National Gallery beside the Padang, Singapore River and nearby bridges into a day with fewer transfers.

Tips for travellers

For a short stay, MG Road, Indiranagar and the streets around Cubbon Park are central and sit on the Purple Line, but if your work is in Whitefield or Electronic City, stay close to it, because cross-city traffic can take well over an hour at peak times. BMRCL sells QR tickets through its app and on WhatsApp as well as travel cards. App cabs and auto-rickshaws are widely used; ask for the meter or use the app fare.

The weather is most comfortable from October to February. The south-west monsoon brings steady rain from June to September, and October and November can bring short, heavy downpours. The Lalbagh flower shows around Republic Day in January and Independence Day in August draw large crowds. Karaga, a night-long festival centred on the Dharmaraya Swamy Temple, falls in March or April. Remove footwear and dress modestly at temples such as the Bull Temple in Basavanagudi, and expect a separate camera charge at Bangalore Palace.
