The weather in January

What the season does to Orchard & Botanic Gardens this month.

Heads up

Monsoon Showers

November to January are the wettest months: heavy thundery showers most afternoons, sometimes all day during a monsoon surge in December or January. Mornings are often clear. Plan outdoor sights early, keep an umbrella, and hold indoor options (malls, museums, the Gardens by the Bay domes) for the afternoon.

What it costs

For two sharing a room; 2 days on the ground, getting there not included.
