Off to Singapore (26)
wash2u: Ask in your hotel when you get there for ideas. And then sort a much cheaper ride/tour. Might be worth hiring a car & driver - always plenty of opportunities but hotel arranged may be double/triple the price of elswhere) and go for a drive into Malaysia and visit some towns.
And keep a good eye on your sugar levels as the food is very deceptive as far a carbs & fats are concerned. Sometimes not enough, other times too much ... sister-in-law is from Malaysia and it is surprising what they do or don't put in the food. Sometimes heavily sweetened, sometimes with nothing even though the spices make it so tasty.

Thanks wash, we will certainly look into tours when we get there, we decided to do that as the pre-booked tours we found online were payable in American $.

A bit of local knowledge does go a looong way. Way back then and the "family" was in Malaysia. Walk into hotel and it was $mega for the night. Sister-in-law goes back in and argues the price down to 1/3.
Simple thing is to say "too much" and see what they come back with. Then try for less. Very quickly, you will find something you feel good with, and they will be happy to make it. Lesson was that no matter how cheap it is, you can get a better deal.
We do need a "trip report" on the Singapore experience.
