Singapore bursts with life all year round, from popular attractions to hideouts waiting to be discovered. Behind the veneer of endless shopping districts, luxury hotels and dining experiences lie a unique blend of activities catering to all ages and interests. With businesses constantly launching new promotions, those looking for a fun activity to rediscover the best of this Lion City are truly spoilt for choice. Exploring this futuristic city either as a tourist or a local has never been easier, and in this article, we spill the beans on some of our favourite Singapore budget travel attractions of less than S$100.
Located a 10-minute
stroll from the Marina Bay Sands lies an architectural marvel -
Gardens By The Bay. This sanctuary for nature lovers and budding
horticulturalists is the perfect destination to reimagine nature
with artistic finesse. You would be pleasantly surprised to know
that the cost of enjoying this oasis of lush greenery is $0. You
read that right, it is completely free of charge to enter the
grounds of the gardens and snap pictures of the Supertree Grove.
Talk about a better Singapore budget travel option! When dusk
falls, the grove lights up with the Garden Rhapsody, a spectacle
of light and sound.
To enter the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest of the Gardens, one
would need a paid ticket. We love the Singapore City Pass
Adventure and Singapore City Pass
Explorer bundle deals below $100 which
allow you to save up to 33% off ticket prices. Marvel at exotic
plants and gigantic supertrees without having the break the bank.
Hop onto an authentic
revamped Vietnam War-era vehicle, an amphibious vehicle to soak in
the Singapore skyline from two different perspectives - on land
and in the water. Tour the city in style as you are accompanied by
one of our City Ambassadors to learn more of Singapore’s history,
culture and traditions. Start off with a city exploration, a drive
around the city landmarks like Esplanade, Padang, Supreme Court,
City Hall, and War Memorial.
When you think you have seen it all, there's more. It's time for
"Splashdown" into the waters of Marina Bay as you continue your
tour along the Singapore river. Whip out your cameras as your
vehicle cruises by the Merlion, Marina Bay Sands, and Esplanade
Theatres on the Bay. Book

The award-winning
Singapore Zoo is home to one of the world’s first ‘open concept’
zoos. Our resident species are housed in landscaped enclosures as
opposed to traditional cages. Brace yourself for an exotic
adventure with over 4,000 animals inhabiting the lush tropical
rainforest. Opt for a Night Safari experience for an off-hour

Singapore has even more to offer! Hop on board the Singapore

all the way to the Straits of Johor and Spice Islands of
Indonesia. Enjoy a classic Singapore Sling cocktail up in the air

Singapore, and is one of the nation's best-known cocktails made
with an authentic recipe developed back in 1915. Now, you can ride
