Highly recommend for a short stay in Singapore

I was in Singapore for a very short amount of time and wanted to see as much as possible - Big Bus Tours was the best way to do this. There are two routes, both going to the main sights in Singapore. I’d recommend doing both routes fully first whilst listening to the audio guide on board, then afterwards stopping and getting off at different points. Drivers were friendly, buses were frequent, the audio guide was clear and I really liked using the Big Bus Tours app - it made finding bus stops easier and had approximate timings for buses arriving. Paper maps and headphones are provided when you first get on a bus. I bought the 48 hour ticket, but with careful planning could have potentially done it all in the 24hrs one. Definitely worth the money as once you’ve fine the tour you feel satisfied that you’ve seen everything Singapore has to offer!

Response from the operator: Dear K5801LUkatieb, Thank you for your wonderful review and recommendation! We are delighted that Big Bus Tours helped you make the most of your short stay in Singapore. It is great to hear that you enjoyed both routes, the audio guide, and found our app useful for planning your journey. We hope to welcome you back again for another sightseeing adventure!

Great service but don’t bother with the night tour.

This does what it says- there are 2 routes each serving very different themes- city and heritage - because of this options to change from one route to the other are limited. The commentary is informative, wi-fi on board is helpful and staff are courteous. We had a 2 day ticket which included the night tour- this was underwhelming. First stop at 6 pm at a viewpoint - nice photos but didn’t really need to have a 15 min talk about a reservoir! Secondly - hawkers food centre - we knew there would be satay tastings ( get your elbows sharpened) but it wasn’t clear the stop here was an hour ( free time) so you could eat …. We had eaten before the tour so this was an hour of hanging around waiting. Finally the gardens by the bay light show where you miss half the “trees” as you are perched on rocks trying to see. My advice- grab a taxi and just go to the light show independently. Return journey was laughable as the guide -Roger kept playing the “ I’m going to take you on an unscheduled detour ( because I’m so great) to see the Merlion” (because I want your tips!) charade! Buses run from around 9:30-6 pm, approx 30 mins apart. Each circular route takes around 90 mins For us , 6 pm was too early - wish they’d run a bit later

Two different routes of...

Two different routes of Singapore main areas, nice and smooth sightsee of the city, each route duration of 1h and 1.5h approximately - easy to do as a all-sights-in-a-day trip.

Nice way to see the city

It’s a simple and easy way to see the city. If you have time use this approach. If you only have limited time use GRAB and have more direct tours

Response from the operator: Dear 1247912, Thank you for your review! We are glad you found it a simple and convenient way to see Singapore. We appreciate your tip and hope to welcome you again for another enjoyable sightseeing experience! Your Big Bus Singapore Team
