Can I spend a day in Singapore with a budget of US$ 100 ?

Question

Hey guys I'm planning to spend a day or 2 in Singapore. I am supposed to change flights there so thinking of extending my stay.

But the thing is my budget wont allow me to spend more than US$100 for the stay there. I was looking for really cheap hotels but I dunno where to look !

Also how much of Singapore can I see in one day?

It would be a great help if u were to tell me some cheap hotels or at least a website where I can get some info.

Thanks !

Answer 1

Just try to calculate for yourself.

You are talking of a stopover for 1 to 2 days on your route from? to? where?

Cheap hotel @ waterloo st & middle road & around the area. US$30 per day (BB)

Food court/hawker centre @ US$5/- per meal

Travel: Get a EZ Tourist Card around US$8/- for Train & Bus.

As tourist join the A DAY City Tour Bus for US$25/-

Try to cut cost by walking in city and see more.  

Answer 2

Seriously, US$100 is really too little considering the appreciation of the Sing dollar and the depreciation of your US dollar. Apart from that, the expenses in Singapore are high....  

Answer 3

Hi

1. at a conservative exchange rate of USD 1 = SGD 1.3, you have S$130 to spend for a day.

2. My suggestion:

a. Accommodation: Use a dorm bed (about S$20) or a standard room with shared bathroom (S$70) at the New 7th Storey Hotel - http://www.nsshotel.com

Money left: S$60.

b. 1 day tour plan:

Morning:

Walking tour of either Little India:

or Kampong Glam Malay-Arab Quarter:

http://www.etour-singapore.com/kampong-g...

Cost: free.

Lunch: food + drink at a hawkers' centre (about $5-6)

Pack for dinner: Also hawker centre (also about $5-6)

Money left: S$48

Afternoon + Evening: Singapore Zoo & Night Safari  (next to each other)

Zoo: http://www.etour-singapore.com/singapore...

Night Safari: http://www.etour-singapore.com/singapore...

MRT to Ang Mo Kio + Bus 138 to Zoo / Night Safari + return journey: about $8.

Combined ticket to Zoo and Night Safari: $30

Money left after a day: $10

It'll be more comfortable if you stayed in a dorm. Remember to set aside money for airport tax etc.
