Thanks for the great tips! Another tip: Contactless payment (tap to pay) is frequently called "pay wave". It's widely supported everywhere.
Super useful since I'll be visiting SG next September. Thank you a lot !
Glad to hear it was helpful! Enjoy your trip :)
Fabulous top 10 list for visitors to Singapore. Can I suggest one small tweak though. All visitors must do the Botanic Gardens. Start at Botanic Gardens MRT and then walk down the hill to the new Napier MRT. Free, and the perfect start to every Singapore day.
Agreed. Get there before it gets hot. Beautiful place.
Great video and tips. Thank you!!
These tips were really helpful.
Makes me want to visit again.
Wow. This is really helpful video. Waiting for your next video. 👍
This was good information. So many other sites do not give actual information. Interested in the prices etc
Great video! I am in Sinapore now on a visit, and your tips are spot on. One thing that I've found surprising here: Singapore is a lot bigger than I thought it would be! Also, I've found that Grab (the Uber of Singapore) and taxis are very inexpensive compared to what I am used to in the DC Metro area!
Glad you found the tips helpful and hope you have a great visit!
😊 I'm so happy I found your channel! Thank you for all this interesting information that will be so helpful when I visit
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy your visit :)
Hey, where did you get that nice 'chinese painting'-looking painting of 3 person on your wall? Looks cool !👍
I love your Singapore videos and really vibe with you as an asian American. Looking forward to more content!
Thank you so much!
So helpful! I am planning to move to Singapore and live with a couple I know. I will utilize all these tips, do you know anything about e sim cards in Singapore?
This was really helpful. I would have definitely forgotten about foreign transaction fees for public transportation if using a card.
Would love to hear about the itineraries you developed for different neighborhoods! That's not something I've seen on YT before.
Thank you! Good to know itineraries would be interesting :)
Thanks. Really helpful. How one can pay the bus? Also contactless? Any recommend h
Air-conditioned hoka market?
Yes, bus uses the same contactless payment system as the MRT
@@happy_hapa cool, thanks
If my card has forex fees, what alternative payment do you recommend? :) i saw that they have the tourist pass but it has mixed reviews online
Good question! You can purchase an EZlink card at the MRT station for S$10 with S$5 towards trips and S$5 non-refundable fee for the card. In the longer term, if you are a frequent traveler I'd recommend getting a card without forex fees, like Revolut.
What do you think of local men?
is been awhile since u upload a vid. i hope u are ok.
Are masks still required on public transport in August?
No longer required though you will still see people wearing them!
she is good looking
Do you have an Instagram account
