A Guide to Singapore
Dear friends,
Welcome to Singapore,a gateway to Asia.
Important tips and a guide to our colleagues, being deputed here for 15 days on temporary posting, may be of some help.
After landing at SIA,rest details are known to everyone that when you clear Immigration;move either Left or Right side to be in que to get Taxy for Hotel REGENT where we used to stay at CUSCADEN ROAD near Tanglin Mall.
Taxy fare will be paid by Hotel.
While you reach hotel time will be ticking to local 00:30 hrs.
Early in the morning ,when you wake up and move out,the very first thing is to walk at the Bus stop(right in front of main gate of Hotel) and board BUS No 36 .Get down at Orchard Road MRT and purchase MRT Card of S$12 and Recharge it for additional S$10.Now this card will have a value of S$17/=which is sufficient for your movement in the city for remaining days of your stay.
Once you get the pass ,you may visit TEKKA Center MRT at Little India and get a SIM card of SingTel for S$10/= which has call value of S$10 along with 5GB data for a month.
Though we get Handy but it's performance is very poor.SIM data will help you getting direction,Bus or MRT and its timing.Without data your movement around the city will become really very difficult.
Now the above pass is valid for both MRT and Bus hence you can use this for local sight seeing and don't take package.
For every tourist places,visit the place of your own either by Bus or Metro.
Singapore maps are available at departure and arrival lounge apart from this it is available at every places where ever you go free of cost.Collect them for your guidance.
Always purchase your tickets online through various sites which is cheaper by 15 to 25% compare to tickets at Windows.
