Scooter Hire
If you fancy a change from being in the dark underground MRT to sight seeing overground then scooting is a good way. These are battery powered with a range of hourly or daily deals available. Maximum actual scooting time is about 4 hours (continuous) but it’s unlikely that you will travel non-stop. There is a battery state indicator. I hired for a whole day at a time (actually twice I enjoyed it so much) and managed to negotiate borrowing the battery charger unit for the day. It’s small weighing about 1kg. When I stopped for lunch I topped it up to give me more range. You need to use your common sense. These machines are capable of 18kmh which, just 2” above ground, is quite fast enough. Far better to ride slowly and mindful of people, kerbs and obey all restrictions which ideally means not on narrow pavements. Roads can be busy too so be wise. Do not ride wildly and you will be like all Singaporeans: safe, respectful and having a nice day.
Because they were so helpful I went to:
