Singapore




Uniquely Intriguing Culture

Introduce your incentive reward recipients to the interesting history, culture and character of the Peranakans, a people of mixed Chinese and Malay ancestries, with influences from the Portuguese and Dutch. Visit Singapore’s Peranakan enclave at Katong, where delegates can learn about the elaborate customs and savour the delectable cuisine of the Peranakans.

At Little India, visitors enjoy a rich potpourri of sights and smells. Exotic spices permeate the busy little lanes. Send your adventurers on a mini Amazing Race and reward them with a tattoo through the painless style of henna painting.
Uniquely Tempting Food
Food has to be a true incentive for performance and reward, and Singapore offers much to satisfy the fussy palate, from open air hawker centres whipping up local delights, trendy cafes, traditional coffee shops, to award-winning restaurants. 

Embark on a culinary adventure by sending your incentive winners to our renowned culinary schools such as the Raffles Culinary Academy, at-sunrice Academy or Coriander Leaf. Besides engaging in bonding sessions, they learn the secrets of using tropical herbs and spices with food.


Besides offering star performers an invigorating swim with sharks, dinner with orang utans, and sneaking up to nocturnal creatures in their natural habitat, just south of Singapore lies the resort island of Sentosa, with its prestine beaches, and historical venues such as Fort Siloso.

Captivate your winners with a one-of-a-kind Gourmet Safari Express at the Singapore Zoological Gardens, or rise up early to join the birds for breakfast in the lush tropical setting of the Flamingo Lodge in Jurong BirdPark. 


Uniquely Enriching Arts
World-class arts performances take place at the Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, Singapore’s premier performing arts venue. Private performances can be arranged on the Esplanade’s Roof Terrace, serving canapés and champagne. From Beijing opera, Broadway musicals, Bolshoi Ballet, to Kerala Kathakali, we offer wonderful pickings from the East and the West. 

An elegant dinner can be staged at the Asian Civilisations Museum with a Peranakan theme, or you can end the evening on a high with a Cantonese Opera Concert. Dress your delegates in the colourful costumes of the opera singers and have their faces painted like the opera performers.


Uniquely Relaxing Wellness

The garden city of Singapore offers much peace and tranquility in the lush surroundings of Spa Botanica, Singapore’s first garden spa at Sentosa. Indulge in the aroma of curative herbs and flowers and journey through the tropical sanctuary to unravel the secrets of physical well-being. 

Or arrange a Tai Chi morning session at the Botanic Gardens followed by a soothing foot reflexology session to ease tension and improve blood circulation. 

Enjoy a refreshing tea appreciation session and learn the intricate details of making a cup of traditional Chinese tea. When night descends, unwind at the Laguna National Golf and Country Club which features two championship 18-hole courses in pristine landscaping.


Uniquely Refreshing Beyond
Singapore is a gateway to many other exciting cities in the region. With connections of over 70 international airlines, it is the ideal place to plan a fly-cruise holiday for your incentive participants. Board one of Star Cruises’ liners and sail to nearby ports of call and enjoy five-star treatment on board. Besides offering international cuisine on board, your winners can take part in team-building events, pool parties, dinner and dance events and many more.  


Plan an afternoon high tea cruise on a real Chinese junk as it sails around Singapore’s harbour front, before visiting Kusu Island, the legendary Isle of Turtles. The team can also take a 45-minute ferry ride to Bintan or Batam island to explore the island by bicycle or enjoy sea sports and a game of golf at excellent golf courses.

Unique Venues 
Singapore offers a plethora of venues for special events that can be used as part of a conference programme or to contribute to the overall attractiveness of an incentive programme.

Zoo

The Singapore Zoo is among the most visited tourist destination in Asia. If traveling with kids, this is one of the must-visit spots on the island. The Singapore Zoo is been much acclaimed for its open landscape and spaciousness where in the animals live in enclosures simulating that of their natural habitat.

The zoo is filled with exotic animals like white tigers, polar bears, and Asian elephants etc. In addition, the Singapore Night Safari is one of Singapore’s premier tourist attractions. The Night Safari is the world’s first such attraction. Experience wildlife on a 45-minute tram ride or take one of the three Walking Trails to get a feel of the park in eight geographical zones covering forty hectares of forested park.

The sight of watching over one hundred different species of nocturnal animals (including leopards, lions and tigers) is simply amazing and something you will remember always.
