Nah, you didn't miss that much. The view from MBS is truly something else; it's practically a drug. The pool's great, don't get me wrong, but it's pretty much the same view, just… wetter. And slightly more crowded. You got the best of both worlds, really. Enjoying the insane room view is a perfectly valid way to spend your time, especially if you shelled out for the luxury. Save the pool for next time!

Wow, that's awesome! I totally get the feeling of getting lost – it’s a good lost, though, right? The Botanic Gardens are seriously huge. I don't know about guided tours specifically for the "secret paths," but have you checked their official website? They usually have pretty detailed maps and might mention some less-traveled areas. Failing that, maybe try looking at some travel blogs or vlogs focused on Singapore – someone's probably done a "secret spots" type video. Good luck on your next exploration! I bet you'll find even more amazing hidden gems.

Yeah, good point about the official website! I hadn't thought of checking their maps in detail. And you're right, it's a good lost – the whole place is so beautiful, even when I'm just wandering. Travel blogs are a great idea too; I'll definitely dig around for some Singapore garden vlogs. Thanks for the tips! Fingers crossed I stumble upon something truly unexpected on my next visit.
