Home to some of the world’s best beaches, the Maldives sparkles with whiter-than-white sand and turquiose-blue water. Some of the world’s most amazing diving and snorkelling is found in the Maldives and the luxurious resorts mean this idyllic destination is at the

top of many travellers’ wish-lists.

Maldives

VISIT MALDIVES YEAR 2016The Maldives is the perfect holiday destination to do as little or as much as you please. 2016 is the year to visit the Maldives and it is easy to see why. Relax on the unspoiled beaches or with pampering spa treatments, or enjoy the many outdoor activities the Maldives has to off er. Enjoy all that makes the Maldives an extraordinary holiday experience; luxury accommodation, indulgent spa treatments, fantastic facilities for families and children, world-class diving and surfi ng, outstanding dining options and unique resort experiences for special occasions.

WHEN TO GOLocated close to the equator, the Maldives enjoy steady temperatures year-round (around 28-31 degrees Celsius). The dry season is from November to April, with the peak visiting period from Christmas to the end of January – prices can be signifi cantly higher at this time. The rainy season is June and July – which is excellent for surfers. We show prices for the ‘low season’ in this brochure (generally May to October) however, we have prices for all seasons. Contact our reservations team to tailor your island escape.

ISLAND TRANSFERSDepending on the location of your resort there are three transfer options, speedboat, seaplane or domestic fl ight plus speedboat. Please note: the transfer time one-way is advised next to the icon found on each resort page.

Speedboat transfers are used for islands close to Ibrahim Nasir International Airport, Malé.

Seaplane transfers may be used up to 1600hrs, after which scheduled domestic fl ights on a local airline operate to resorts on the outer islands. These then connect with speedboat transfers to your island resort.

Seaplanes fl y to the more remote islands and only operate in daylight hours and have strict weather, safety and weight requirements.

MEAL PLANS & OPTIONAL UPGRADESCheck each resort listing for meal inclusions. Most packages include breakfast daily, however some include more. Check each listing for specifi c inclusions and ask us about excellent value meal plans, which you can upgrade for your stay.

Half board: breakfast and dinner only

Full board: breakfast, lunch and dinner

All Inclusive: breakfast, lunch, dinner PLUS additional services specifi c to each resort.

Pricing & SeasonalityPrices in this brochure are based on stays in the Low Season, generally between May and October. Low season dates vary by resort. For specifi c dates, other seasons and 2017 prices, please contact our reservations team.

Located at the southern tip of the Malaysian Peninsular, this modern, vibrant, island city is a perfect blend of east and west, with an interesting cultural mix of Chinese, Malay and European influences.

Below are some of our top tips to make your visit to Singapore an truly unforgettable holiday experience.

A must-see cultural enclave for visitors to Singapore, the heart of Chinatown beats with a bustling, colourful mix of old and new, with everything from textiles and traditional medicine stalls to dim sum restaurants and stylish bars.

Little India is a colourful cacophony of car horns, bicycle bells and the vibrant chatter of its residents. Tekka Market, which is only a short walk from Little India MRT Station, boasts a plethora of stalls selling Indian, Malay and Chinese food, and regularly draws crowds from all over Singapore. Mustafa Centre is also set in Little India, and is famous as Singapore’s only 24-hour shopping haunt.

Delight in world-class shopping at the designer malls of Orchard Road. For a unique shopping experience explore the cobblestone street of Bugis Street markets, now housing around 600 shops.

Escape the hustle and bustle with a visit to Singapore Botanic Gardens or the awe-inspiring Gardens by the Bay, complete with “supertrees” and two colossal plant domes (see pages 34-35).

Set in 26 hectares of rainforest environment, Singapore Zoo is home to more than 2,800 specimens from over 300 species. Highlights of this open plan zoo include white tigers, elephants, Komodo dragons, many species of primates, and the first polar bear born in the tropics. You can also meet a family of Orang-Utans during breakfast in the zoo’s Children’s World section.

Take a trip to Sentosa Island, home to the world’s largest oceanarium. There are more than 100,000 marine animals at the S.E.A. Aquarium™! Visit Resorts World Sentosa’s Adventure Cove Waterpark, featuring a hydro-magnetic coaster plus plenty of slides, tubes, and paddle pools. Swim with the fish at Rainbow Reef and book a session to feed the stingrays.

Singapore’s traditional attractions include Marina Bay Sands, the three-towered skyscraper that now stands as Singapore’s centrepiece, and the iconic Raffles Hotel, still standing proud more than 125 years after being built.

For food, you can’t go past Singapore’s hawker scene – far more

With its rich cultural tapestry, local and international cuisine, vibrant contemporary arts and buzzing street life, Singapore is not only a great stopover city; it’s a fantastic holiday

destination in its own right.

Singapore – so much to see & do

Singapore city skyline

than a collection of street carts, this is a well-evolved culinary culture, originating from traditional vendors. There are around 120 hawker centres in Singapore, in addition to those found in shopping centres. All stalls are monitored by the government and given a cleanliness rating. A great place to go for a family meal (around AUD30) or a quick meal before heading to a bar for one of the city’s world-famous Singapore Slings.

GETTING AROUNDIt’s easy and affordable to get around the city with its efficient public transport options such as buses, the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) or taxi. Tap and go with the Singapore Tourist Pass or EZ-Link card, stored value cards which can be used on both buses and MRT trains, with rides starting from less than SGD1. Obtain your card from one of the TransitLink Ticket Offices throughout the city, including Changi Airport, Orchard, Chinatown, City Hall, Raffles Place, Bayfront and Harbourfront.

“Top 10 Indoor Gardens of the World” – FoxNews.com

“Avatar in real life: Singapore’s Gardens by the Bay” – The Sydney Morning Herald

Featuring more than one million plants from more than 5,000 species, Gardens by the Bay showcases the best of horticulture, sustainability and architectural design. It is a must-see destination fi lled with wonders from around the world.

FLOWER DOMEAwarded by Guinness World Record, the World’s Largest Glass Greenhouse – Flower Dome houses unique plants from 5 continents – Asia, Europe, Africa, America and Australia. The wide array of plants are featured in replicated cool and dry Mediterranean climate and semi-arid subtropical regions of the world in 9 diff erent gardens – Baobabs and Bottle Trees, Succulent Garden, Australian Garden, South African Garden, South American Garden, California Garden, Mediterranean Garden, Olive Grove and Changing Flower Field Display. The vivid fl oral displays on the Flower Field are refreshed periodically to bring ever-changing horticultural experiences to visitors.

CLOUD FORESTThe Flower Dome sits alongside the 0.8-hectare Cloud Forest. A mysterious world veiled in mist, surrounded by over 60,000 plants and fl oral gems from the Tropical Montane regions. Be amazed as you come face-to-face with the world’s tallest indoor waterfall at 35 metres! Go on a trek behind the waterfall and enjoy the refreshing cool air and majestic views of the waterfall below. Descend through the surreal mist-veiled Cloud Walk and explore the 7 discovery zones – Cloud Walk, Lost World, Waterfall View, Crystal Mountain, Earth Check, +5 Degrees and Secret Garden.

Unlike most temperate greenhouses which have a warm interior, the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest are climate-controlled in a sustainable, energy-effi cient manner to provide a cool environment that brings forth the concept of perpetual spring in the tropics.

OCBC SKYWAY & SUPERTREESAt a height of 22 metres and surrounded by panoramic vistas of the Gardens and Marina Bay skyline, this 128-metre long aerial walkway is an experience not to be missed. During the day, a stroll along the OCBC Skyway presents glorious photo-taking opportunities to capture the scenic beauty of the surrounding fl ora.As dusk falls, the captivating Marina Bay skyline emerges and the entire area comes alive nightly with the Garden Rhapsody – a free light and sound show at 7.45pm and 8.45pm.
