Top Museums in Singapore

I suggest checking out the latest exhibition schedule online before your visit, so you know what to expect and don’t miss anything cool. I missed an interactive show that was only on for a couple days!

Pro tip: Use the Oculus app if you're into augmented reality. It adds a neat layer to your experience and it’s free! I had a blast with this!

My advice is to grab lunch at the nearby mall instead of the museum café. Food prices there are a bit steep and the mall food was way tastier!

If you're into the interactive experiences, don't skip the Virtual Reality ride. It was surprisingly fun! But plan ahead as it can have long wait times during peak hours.

Especially for kids, the outdoor water play area is a must! Remember to bring a change of clothes, because you’ll want to let them splash around!

I think the better part of the Science Centre is the IMAX theatre. If you like movies, don’t skip it! But be ready to book a ticket ahead of time; it fills up fast.

Be mindful of your time with the exhibits. Some self-guided spots can lead you down a rabbit hole if you’re not careful! Set a timer if you want to catch everything!

If you're looking to save some dough, grab lunch at a nearby hawker center instead of the museum café. The food is delish and way cheaper!

If you're on a budget, consider packing a light snack. The café inside isn't the best value, and I ended up spending more than I planned!

I think you should try to catch any workshops or talks they might have. I stumbled upon a great pottery demo while I was there. It really added a cool, hands-on element to my visit!
