Hello there! Have you just arrived in
Singapore? Well, one thing I must suggest that you purchase once you arrive
is the
Singapore Visitors Card.
Why purchase? Well, there are many promotions
and offers specifically designed for tourists stored within the card.
Besides including stored value for riding
on public transport, you can get fabulous discounts off regular priced
services and items in the island.
1. The Visitors Card
Hopefully, you've arrived in Singapore and are
raring to go explore the island. Well, before you go, you should pick up the
Visitors Card. What is this card? Well, it is a special card developed by the
Singapore Tourism Board and its travel trade partners. All with the aim of
giving you the most enjoyable experience during your stay here.
The Visitors Card can be considered you very
own travel guide. There are tie-ups with not only the Singapore Zoo, Night
Safari and the Jurong BirdPark - there are also savings in other areas as well.
2. Zip Around The Island
Easily
The best thing about the card is that it also
gives you stored value in the form of an 'Ez-Link' component. 'Ez-Link' is
Singapore's phrase for a stored value card - you can conveniently zip around in
the public transportation network (e.g. MRT/SMRT, buses and Light Rail trains)
by simply swiping your card. All while enjoying the other privileges.
