2. The standard of meals is a simple buffet or a team meal with 6-8 dishes and one soup per table. Team meals are usually spinach, tofu, scrambled eggs, fried fish, etc. The taste is quite different from that of China. It is not recommended that you add meals in the team restaurant, because one of them tastes bad and the other is that the serving speed is slow.

3. If the flight is during the meal time, no group meal will be arranged separately.

4. At present, it is the peak of tourism, so there may be waiting in line for meals.

5. Tourism in Singapore and Malaysia is very mature, and many star-rated hotels are old, so the facilities are relatively old.

6. If there is a single man and a single woman in the team, the travel agency will split the couple's room. Please cooperate. If there are special requirements, increase the room difference.

7. The styles of sockets in hotels in Singapore and Malaysia are different from those in China, but the housekeeping department may provide "adapter" borrowing service. If there is a socket in the bathroom, please note that there is a difference between 11V and 22V V. Please check it carefully before use to avoid burning electrical appliances.

5. Notes on currency, shopping and tipping

1. You can exchange Malaysian ringgit at the Malaysian tour guide, but the tour guide usually does not provide the service of exchanging ringgit for RMB, so please exchange it as needed.

2. There are some shopping shops on the trip. In line with the principle of freedom of shopping, please choose your own. If you have a shopping desire, please carefully compare the quality, price and production place of the goods before shopping. You are advised to shop carefully.

3. If you are interested in buying high-grade durable goods, please be sure to ask the store to issue an invoice. When the store issues an invoice in English, please make sure that the exact meaning expressed in English is consistent with the goods you purchased.

4. Please make a consumption plan in advance before departure. Considering the currency's liquidity and portability, besides RMB, a certain amount of US dollars can be carried.

5. When the tour guide introduces the self-funded projects to you, please ask the distinguished guests to choose the same projects for sightseeing as much as possible, because it involves issues such as car use and dining.

6. The tip paid to the tour guide per person per day is 3 yuan/person/day.

5. Traffic, sanitation, climate and time difference:

1. Traffic in Singapore and Malaysia keeps on the left, which is contrary to our city. When crossing the road, please follow the red and green traffic lights to cross the crosswalk, especially in Malaysia.

2. Singapore has very strict regulations on articles brought into the country. For example, chewing gum is strictly forbidden to be brought into the country, and the maximum number of cigarettes brought into Singapore per person is 19.

3. The temperature in Singapore is sultry all year round in summer, which is about 25 ~ 34℃. Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, is 24 ~ 32℃, but the temperature at Genting will be about 7℃ lower.

4. There is no time difference between Singapore and Malaysia and Beijing.

6. Travel safety instructions for Singapore and Malaysia

1. Pay attention to personal safety, and don't accept conversations from strangers who speak Chinese in Thailand and Malaysia. If you need to go out during the free activities outside the travel agency's itinerary, you should travel in groups of three or five as far as possible, with your bag on your chest and accompanied by a tour guide.

2. valuables must be carried with you. Please don't store valuables in the car when you get off at the scenic spot.

3. Take care of your passport. This is your identification abroad.

4. Please pay attention to anti-skid when using the bathroom to avoid falling.

5. Please don't leave the group without authorization. In addition to collecting the departure fee from the local agency, the travel agency will not be responsible for accidents when tourists leave the group without authorization.

VII. Precautions for tourism in Xinmatai:

1. When you leave or enter the country, there may be many tourists going through formalities at the same time, so there will be a long queue and waiting. During the trip, meals, scenic spots, waiting for the boat, waiting for the bus and checking in at the hotel may also happen. Please consider the above objective reality and give your understanding and support.

2. Due to different culture, education and growing environment, the explanation, expression, service and behavior of ground tour guides in different countries will be far from your imagination.

3. During the trip, you need to take many international flights, and there are also some long-term trips, which are tiring and exhausting. Especially on the first and last day of the tour, it was a late flight and I couldn't sleep normally. Therefore, please pay attention to the "combination of leisure and recreation" and have more rest.

4. Pay attention to the assembly time and don't be late, so as not to keep other distinguished guests waiting.

5. For safety and work convenience, the first row of the coach is the work seat for tour guides and tour leaders. Please take your seats from the second row.

6. According to international practice, travel agencies do not bear the losses and responsibilities caused by force majeure.

VIII. Watch out for thieves:

When traveling, there is great mobility, thieves are everywhere, and robberies also occur from time to time. Therefore, valuables such as cash, cameras and jewelry must be carried with you. When walking, pay attention to robbers robbing from behind. When leaving hotels and restaurants, you must carry valuables with you. If you lose items, guests must be conceited. The places that are prone to theft are: stations, airports, restaurants, hotels and other public places.

Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia all have jewelry shopping spots: Thailand has rubies and sapphires; Singapore is an emerald; Malaysia's is a black gem. Be sure to stand the persuasion of the shopping guide, but look at it and don't recommend buying it. Because someone bought rusty Thai jewelry in the last group, emeralds are artificially processed natural stones, which is what the group members told me.

Thailand Station:

(1) L 'Oré al has set up a factory in Thailand, and the price is two-thirds cheaper than that in China. The facial cleanser is only 15 baht (because the exchange rate is better, it is only a little more in 21 yuan to use UnionPay to convert RMB).

shopping place: the duty-free shop marked King power at Bangkok airport. You can save another 5-5 baht when you purchase a certain amount with discount coupons.

shopping time: there is enough time when the group transfers from Thailand to Singapore because there is more than one hour.

(2) Wucentipede Zhike Pills, Coconut Peanut Candy and Monkey Peach White Powder Oil

Shopping location: On the way back to Thailand from Pattaya, I passed the wholesale point of Tute Factory and asked the tour guide to give me more time. The tour group "sings" time.

shopping TIPS: Thai things are the cheapest in Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia, so although it is important to buy food here first, we should drag it away with a trailer.

(3) Thai skirts and pants.

Shopping location: Golden Sand Island, Pattaya.

shopping TIPS: Pattaya has a low price, and there are many items here that can be bargained. 1 baht for a pair of trousers and 15 baht for a suit, which can be used as pajamas for relatives and friends in summer. Features: distinctive and cool to wear. If you don't participate in water sports, you will have enough time to buy.

(4) Shopping spots in Pattaya: Triumph, Wagner underwear, Tess scarf, and the time is tight, so we can only buy one or two.

(5) Shopping Mall in Bangkok: Levis and Lee.

TIPS: if you are very familiar with Bangkok or have friends leading the way in Thailand, and you like this kind of brand, go out and buy it yourself on the evening of Bangkok.

(6) Duty-free shop in Thailand airport: BABALLY, DISNEY watches, Chinese cigarettes and foreign wine are recommended, and some colleagues buy them during the connecting flight. The whole trip passed through Thailand three times, and I haven't started to play on that day, so don't bring it. The second time, it took a long time for Thailand to transfer to Singapore, but there are restrictions on taking alcohol and tobacco in Singapore, so you can't buy it, but you should wait for the return trip to buy it and leave. The third time is when I pass through the connecting flight, because the connecting flight time is very short. If you want to buy one or two, you must recognize the boarding gate, and you will run the plane after buying it!

Singapore:

TIPS: during the Thai-Singapore trip, Singapore only has one afternoon and two half-days in the morning. In fact, Singapore is the most suitable for self-parade, and one day is not enough. You can buy Qinglong oil here, but you can buy it in Malaysia. If you suggest going to Little India, Orchard Road, Chinatown, Bar Street, etc., it is very distinctive, and you can only take a tour with the group.

Malaysia:

(1) Tin ware. ROYAL SELANGOR.

shopping location: duty-free shop in Malaysia.

TIPS: Malaysia is a tin producer, and the quality of tin is quite good. It is a valuable souvenir. Moreover, tin can keep fresh and is beneficial to human body. The above brands were originally produced for the royal family, so they are more expensive. Accept Malaysian ringgit, RMB and VISA cards. The RMB payment exchange rate is about 2.33. It's better than the tour guide's exchange of 2.4, but it's more expensive than UnionPay's 2.13, but UnionPay is not accepted here, and VISA charges a fee.

(2) Qianli Zhuifeng Oil and "Malaysian Ginseng" Tenge Ali. A thousand miles of chasing wind oil is recommended by colleagues. Dongge Ali is too expensive, you can buy it or not.

(3) The Body Shop. There are both new and new horses, and Singapore may not be able to see it because of its tight schedule. There are two places in Malaysia's itinerary: Genting, before boarding at the airport and at the duty-free station. I bought a lip balm made in UK, which smells good. The Body Shop didn't buy the body lotion because it didn't accept UnionPay, and it didn't feel cheap. Wait until Hong Kong to have a look. Only Shanghai has it in China, but Guangzhou doesn't!

What you need to prepare when you go shopping in Singapore:

1. A UnionPay card or a credit card: To the surprise of many shopping enthusiasts, UnionPay cards can be used in Singapore, which is a necessary companion, which can avoid the trouble of exchange and avoid exchange rate losses.

2. A large suitcase: Don't think that you only need to bring a large suitcase to Hong Kong. There are many good things in Singapore, even a large suitcase may burst.

3. Comfortable and light casual clothes and shoes: Although Singapore is small, there are many places worth visiting. Coupled with the hot climate, people all over the street are comfortable and how to wear them.

4. Sunscreen equipment: Singapore is famous for its pure sky and bright sunshine, so sunscreen and parasols must be put in the suitcase.
