Singapore can be a bit costly to visit, so it's important to be mindful of your budget. Here are some ways to save money during your trip:

  • Utilize public transit: Singapore's public transportation system is efficient and reliable, and a Singapore Tourist Pass offers unlimited travel for a daily cost of 10 SGD. The cost per day decreases with longer passes, such as a two-day pass for 16 SGD or a three-day pass for 20 SGD.
  • Dine on Smith Street: Food stalls here offer meals for less than 6 SGD, and it's a great place to try local snacks.
  • Look for budget-friendly dining options: Little India, Chinatown and hawker stalls throughout the city offer delicious meals at affordable prices.
  • Use Couchsurfing to stay with a local: This can save you money on accommodation and give you the chance to connect with someone who can share their local tips and insights.
  • Opt for happy hour specials: Alcohol can be pricey in Singapore, so consider limiting your drinking or taking advantage of happy hour specials.
  • Avoid buying bottled water: Singapore's tap water is safe to drink, so bring a reusable water bottle and refill it to save money and reduce waste.
