MASS RAPID TRANSIT (MRT)
The Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system is probably the fastest way to get around Singapore besides taxis. To find out more feel free to view the train’s many stations and schedules here.
TAXIS
You should be able to hail a taxi without any problems in most parts of Singapore. However, do remember that taxis are only allowed to pick up or alight passengers at designated taxi stands in the city centre. Hotels and shopping centre taxi stands are always good places to hail a taxi.
If you’re travelling in a group, carrying a lot of shopping or luggage, or unable to find a taxi for any other reason, you may want to book a taxi to get to your desired destination. A booking fee is applicable for taxi bookings and charges vary for different taxi companies. Most concierge services will also be happy to call a taxi for you.
Alternatively, you may choose to download Grab or Uber. These are a few of the recommended mobile apps for booking of taxis or car, especially during peak hours. It’s free to use and is the fastest taxi and car booking app in Singapore, available for both iPhones and Android phones.
