LOCAL TRANSPORTATION

Singapore is a small city-state, known as a City in a Garden. Exploring Singapore and its attractions is easy, safe, and clean. 

Transportation Information

Singapore’s public transport is fast and efficient. The MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) and bus systems have an extensive network of routes around the city.

Visitors can use the following payment options for their journey (More details here):

  1. Get a Singapore Tourist Pass (STP), a special EZ-Link stored-value card which will allow you unlimited travel for one, two or three days.
  2. Stored-Value Smartcard (EZ-Link / NETS FlashPay): These cost $10 and come with a stored value of $5 for you to use on your commutes. You’ll be able to purchase these at Passenger Service Centres in train stations, any SimplyGo Ticket Office or convenience stores such as 7-11, Buzz and Cheers.
  3. You can use your foreign-issued Mastercard and Visa contactless bank cards, as well as your mobile wallets for the payment of public transport fares in Singapore. No registration is required.

Transport Options

Taxi or Ride-hailing apps

Taxis are comfortable and especially handy if you want to go to places not accessible by the bus or MRT. Cabs here are metered, but there may be surcharges depending on when, where and which company’s taxi you board.

You can hail a taxi by the roadside at most places, or by queuing for one at a taxi stand, which you’ll find at most malls, hotels and attractions.

Alternatively, you may use one of the ride-hailing applications available in Singapore to book a ride from your preferred pick-up point to your desired destination. Some options available include ComfortDelGro, Grab, Gojek, Ryde and TADA.

Bus

Singapore’s bus routes are also some of the most scenic, allowing one to indulge in the lush greenery and beautiful architecture of our ‘city in a garden’.
