Before You Go
Get a Singtel or StarHub tourist SIM at Changi on arrival — data is cheap and essential for navigation.
Download the Grab app before flying; it's cheaper than taxis and avoids metered fare disputes.
Book the MacRitchie Treetop Walk slot online in advance — entry capacity is limited on weekends.
Load a travel card or check your bank's foreign transaction fees; contactless works almost everywhere in Singapore.
Download GrabFood and Foodpanda for delivery on rest nights so you aren't stuck eating hotel food.
Good to Know
Eat at hawker centres for lunch — you'll spend SGD 5–8, eat better than most restaurants, and sit next to locals.
The MRT EZ-Link card covers every train and most buses; top up at any station and skip the ticket queue.
Singapore heat peaks between 1–4 PM — schedule rest, coffee, or indoor activities during that window every day.
Rooftop bars and hawker centres are the two best solo-friendly social environments in the city; lean into both.
Order one dish at a hawker centre, eat it, then queue at a different stall — that's how locals eat variety solo.
Grab is usually 30–40% cheaper than flagging a taxi; always check it before standing on a kerb.
Wear lightweight moisture-wicking clothes and carry a small towel — you will sweat through anything in 20 minutes of walking.
