Singapore’s a modern and luxurious city with a reputation that’s just one of Asia’s best—and yes, that’s without needing to break the bank. The thing is, it’s easily explored on the cheap with some simple planning. And from bargain restaurants to inexpensive activities and bargain-packed tours, here’s the secret to discovering Singapore on the cheap.

Begin with the city’s numerous free or inexpensive activities. Stroll through Gardens by the Bay, whose Supertree Grove admission is free, or unwind at East Coast Park and feel the breeze from the beach. Discover hoods such as Little India, Chinatown, and Kampong Glam, which are packed with street murals, neighborhood temples, and cultural vibes—no admission fee necessary.

Singapore is also a paradise for foodies on a budget. Hawker centers like Maxwell Food Centre, Lau Pa Sat, and Tekka Centre serve genuine local fare for a few Singapore dollars. Sample the renowned chicken rice, laksa, or char kway teow—all tasty, filling, and inexpensive.
