Affordable Places To Explore With Your Family In Singapore

Are you thinking of how to spend your holidays this June? With borders still shut in many countries, our hopes of getting on a plane and going on a vacation are dashed (for now). Well, why not spend the holidays exploring your home country instead? Singapore may be small, but we have lots of attractions and beautiful spots that many tourists flock to every year.

Since the government has given us $100 SingapoRediscovers Vouchers for every Singaporean citizen aged 18 and above to support the local tourism sector, we can use this voucher and plan our own getaway right here in Singapore!

First things first, do take note that the $100 SRV can only be used on local attractions, tours and hotel stays. The list of eligible merchants can be found here. Secondly, you can book the activity of your choice and redeem the $100 SRV on these five authorised platforms only – Klook, Traveloka, Trip.com, Changi Recommends and GlobalTix.

With plenty of activities and attractive places of interest around us, it is the best time to go out and have fun with your family and friends this June. So, are you ready to have a whale of a time?
