9 Local Attractions to Head To With Your Tourism Vouchers That Cost Less Than $100

It’s Dec and you know what that means!

Reader: We’re closer to the end of this awful year!

Well, yes, but there’s something else.

Reader: Everyone can get a Covid-19 test now?

Again, yes, but that’s not what I’m talking about.

December is the month that all Singaporeans 18 and above receive their SingapoRediscovers vouchers!

Distributed in denominations of $10, Singaporeans will get $100 worth of tourism vouchers to spend on hotels, attractions, and tours.

The only issue, much like on Netflix, is that there are so many options to choose from. 

You’ve probably already read 63 articles about staycations, but what about some local attractions instead?

Here are 9 local attractions you can use your tourism vouchers for:

Singapore Zoo 

Much like the close button on your Netflix tab, many of us are aware of the Singapore Zoo’s existence, but how many of us have actually been there?

First opened to the public in 1973, the zoo has gone on to become one of the best rainforest zoos in the world.

The zoo is home to over 2,800 animals from 300 species—including crocodiles, Malayan tapirs, and and white tigers.

And who can forget the jumpy kangaroos and adorable sloths?

If you’re an animal lover, this will be the perfect place for you.

Snow City

As cold as it gets in Singapore – and it’s been pretty cool lately – it’ll never get cold enough to snow.

In addition to expensive flats and an inability to chew gum, this is something every Singaporean has to accept at some point in their life.

Or do they?

This year, to escape the uncertainties and despair of 2020, head over to the coldest place in Singapore – Snow City!

Ever wanted to throw snowballs at your friends? Or make snow angels on the ground? Well, then this would be the best option for you.

In Aug 2020, Snow City added a Winter Shooting experience, where patrons can put their shooting skills to the test by taking down paintball markers in the snow.

3. ArtScience Musuem

Are you a lover of the arts? Passionate about science and technology?

Well, you can experience a majestic amalgam of the two at the ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sands!

Whether it’s an exhibition of the largest collection of abyssal creatures ever displayed in Southeast Asia, or an insight into the inner workings of DreamWorks Animation, patrons will certainly have an enriching and edifying experience at the museum.

Price: From $16 on Traveloka 

4. Singapore Flyer

Many of us have lived in Singapore for so long that we’ve forgotten how beautiful some parts of the country are.

If you want a better look at this city, specifically a 360-degree view of the city, hop on the Singapore Flyer at Marina Bay!

Each flight last 30 minutes and offers a view of our neighbours Malaysia and Indonesia on a clear day as well.

Plus, if you’d like to make it a romantic night with your partner, you can also book a dining package, which will surely melt the stoniest of hearts.

5. HydroDash

While the pandemic has quashed all our vacations plans, we can still have some fun in the sun.

And what better way to forget about the troubles of 2020 than to climb, slide, leap and bounce your way through Singapore’s first inflatable water park!

Located at Palawan Beach, HydroDash is an aqua park built on a floating obstacle course.

With 4 different zones catering to all ages, a visit to HydroDash promises to be a great day out for the family.

6. Trick Eye Museum

If you don’t want to expend too much energy and would rather get some likes on Instagram, the Trick Eye Museum might be the place for you.

While you might have already seen the internationally renowned optical art museum on social media, its exhibits have been enhanced with Augmented Reality Technology, making them come to life.

The thrilling sound, lights and other effects will provide an experience unlike any other on the list.

Price: From $15 on Klook

7. Singapore Cable Car

Already visited the Singapore Flyer? With a trip on the Singapore Cable Car, you’ll be able to drift slowly through the skies while enjoying a gorgeous view of the cityscape.

You can catch the sunset if you take a trip around 6.30pm, and even see the giant Merlion change its colours.

Just like the Singapore Flyer, you can make the trip a little more romantic if you wish, by opting for the Stardust Dining package, where a new dish is served to you every time your car returns to the peak.

Are you an adrenalin junkie?

Been bored to death at home for the last 11 months? Well, a visit to AJ Hackett Sentosa might provide that rush you’re looking for, as you can go bungee jumping and even sky diving.
