This guide should prove a useful handbook to the many attractions and highlights of Singapore. Full-colour photographs in the opening section of the guide give the reader an immediate sense of the country's diverse attractions, from a stroll through Bukit Timah Rainforest Reserve to a Singapore Sling at Raffles Hotel. The guide carries comprehensive reviews of the best places to stay, eat and drink, in a style that is not afraid to be opinionated, allowing the reader to make informed decisions. As well as providing detailed accounts of all the attractions on the island, there is also coverage of excursions to Sentosa and the southern isles. In addition there are detailed maps of the area, with grid references for every attraction and recommendation.
