'Lonely Planet guidebooks are, quite simply, like no others.' - New York Times

See the Queen of the South China Sea in style, with Lonely Planet’s Singapore Cityguide on your iPhone. This steamy, modern, cosmopolitan city is like a microcosm of Southeast Asia, and you won’t find a more comprehensive, witty and authoritative guide than this. Our resident authors have put in over 900 hours of painstaking research, scouring the town from Little India to Jurong Bird Park to make sure you won’t miss a thing.

OK, so you’ve seen the Merlion, you’ve melted your credit card in the stores of Chinatown and Arab Street, you’ve sweated your way through Bukit Timah Nature Reserve: what next? Well, whip out your iPhone, check your current location on our dynamic, GPS-enabled maps, and find the nearest place to chase a plate of char kway teow down with a cold Singha. Or you might follow one of our detailed walking tours, drilling down through Singapore’s layered history. Or perhaps it’s time for some fun: just filter or text-search the nearest bars to find the one that scratches your itch. And never worry about roaming internet costs: our Cityguides are all stand-alone apps. Ideal!
