Client blog: Off to the races


If you have ever considered going to Singapore to see the Formula One (F1) night race then I would definitely recommend it.

It has always been my husband's favourite F1 race so I thought it was about time we went to see it - especially as the kids are no longer on our hands.

I went to see Carly at Abbotts Travel and explained what I wanted from the trip. She listened to my plans and we adapted it where necessary.

We wanted to purchase a three-day ticket to the race, which also came with free after-race concerts. On Carly's advice our flights worked out a little cheaper, as we flew in and out of different airports.

Flying into Singapore, we stayed at the Mandarin Orchard Hotel for a week. Three days were spent at the races and the rest was spent enjoying what the city had to offer.

The reps that dealt with our F1 tickets and transfers were amazing, it was straightforward with no hiccups, which helped for a happier and stress-free holiday.

Following Singapore, we took a ferry to Bintan Island, Indonesia. Spending three nights relaxing was a great idea, we definitely needed to chill out after our exciting, but hectic week.

We stayed in a lovely spa resort, Angsana Bintan Hotel, it was a little expensive but absolutely beautiful.

From there we travelled back to Singapore before flying to Kuala Lumpur for three nights - which rounded off our trip nicely.

We would definitely book with Abbotts Travel again (in fact, we already have done).
