Weekend Trips from Singapore with Kids — Bintan, Bali & Thailand
One of the best things about living in Singapore is how close everything is. These episodes are the short trips we take on long weekends and school holidays — no long-haul flights, just a ferry or a couple of hours in the air.
Bintan is the easiest of all: an island getaway with ATV rides, White Sand Island and a temple of 500 stone statues, an hour away by ferry. Bali and Thailand are a short flight — Ubud's temples and a budget guide to Bali's top spots, a hidden-gem resort near Bangkok and a Thai road trip — and there's a Royal Caribbean cruise too.

Our tips
- Bintan is the easiest international weekend from Singapore — ferries from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal take about an hour, so there's no flight involved.
- Bali and Bangkok are roughly two and a half hours away by air; an evening flight after work makes the most of a long weekend.
- Book early for Singapore's public holidays and long weekends — flights, ferries and hotels get expensive fast.
- Travel carry-on only for short trips to skip the baggage wait on arrival.
- Many countries, including Indonesia, require at least six months' validity left on your passport.
- Visa rules depend on your passport — Sri Lankan passport holders should check the latest requirements for each country before booking.
Frequently asked questions
What is the easiest weekend trip from Singapore?
Bintan in Indonesia. The ferry from Tanah Merah takes about an hour, the resorts are close to the terminal, and it feels like a real island holiday without a flight.
Can you do Bali in a long weekend?
Yes, with three or four days. Pick one area — Ubud for temples and rice terraces, or a beach area — rather than trying to see the whole island, because traffic is slow.
Is Thailand good for a short trip from Singapore?
Very. Bangkok is a short flight away, and renting a car opens up resorts, farms and parks outside the city. Our Thailand car rental video shows how that works in practice.
