Apart from general drone laws - what are your experience of flying in those three countries?

Is it generally allowed or is it bad idea to fly in urban areas, national/ nature parks?

I'll be greatful for any do/ do not tips.

Thank you.

I flew in Singapore and had no issues at all,  although I tend not to make a scene when I fly,  I did see many drones used quit recklessly and yet it was treated as normal.

Thanks, that's very useful!

Did you fly in urban area? Low buildings or high buildings? etc.

Behind / around the hotel are some fields you can take off from,  or the path was good here - https://goo.gl/maps/SCphbMCarJP6X4W4A

I saw quite a few at this spot taking off - 1.280425, 103.856026   Seemed to be a bit cheeky to me.

What drone did you use to make night shots? It seems a good quality. I don't think my Mavic air has as good camera as yours for night photography.

I flew in all of those locations (Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan) after all and never had any issues. Also I saw very few drones flying.
In Singapore from Gardens by the Bay (around BayfrontPlaza) and the promenade along the Marina Bay Grandstand.
In Hong Kong I flew from Victoria Peak terrace.
In Taiwan I flew in many places like Penghu Islands, Taipei, Kaohsiung, Taroko etc.

In most places there were and altitude limit though 60m or 120m.

I do have a few questions, Since you've been there already, and it's going to be my first time going there, would it be better if I get a travel tour? My best friend recommended this travel tour  https://gowithguide.com/singapore  and deciding to get some local guide. My reasons on getting one are
1. It's my first time
2. I don't want to stress my trip knowing it's my first time
3. It is convenient too as first timer

or do you have any suggestions about it? I just want to know. Thank you in advance.
