The other option for getting around in Singapore is by Taxi. Even though some of the streets might be restricted in some areas, it doesn't mean you can’t ride the most efficient and convenient public transportation in the town, Taxi.

In general, the basic fare of the taxi is around SGD3-4, and it would not take you more than SGD 25 to get around the city centre. But there might be some surcharges which increase the fares up to around 25% in the morning and peak hours, and 50% around midnight to morning before 6 AM.
