Singapore Changi Airport has rejuvenated its
popular Free Singapore Tour programme.
Launched in partnership with Singapore Airlines,
the new tour provides passengers transiting at Changi Airport an
opportunity to enjoy some of Singapore’s iconic sights.
The Free Singapore Tour, introduced in 1987, is
part of Changi Airport’s efforts to better serve passengers who
are at Changi for long layover periods, enhancing Changi’s appeal
as a transfer hub.
More than one million passengers, particularly
those from Australia, China, India, the United Kingdom and the
United States of America, have enjoyed this free service over the
years.
The refreshed tourist programme has two new
itineraries, each offering a different glimpse of Singapore’s
heritage and ever-changing cityscape.
The day itinerary, known as
the Heritage Tour, is available four times a day and includes a
visit to the Colonial District, Merlion Park and traditional
favourites – Chinatown or Little India.
For the first time, an
evening itinerary – the City Lights Tour – is available. It
introduces passengers to Singapore’s vibrant nightlife where they
will also get to view the panoramic views from the Marina Bay
Waterfront Promenade.
Both itineraries include Singapore’s newest
attractions – Gardens by the Bay, Marina Bay Sands and the
Singapore Flyer.
Mr Peh Ke-Wei, Vice President, Passenger
Development, Changi Airport Group, said, “We are very excited
about the new tour itineraries which have been developed following
a request for proposals from the in-bound travel sector. We have
received very positive feedback from our passengers about the tour
through the years, but with the changing tourism landscape in
Singapore, it is an opportune time to refresh the programme. At
Changi, we believe very much in providing our passengers with the
best experience, and we hope that those who have gone on the tour
will want to return to Singapore for a longer stay soon.”
The Free Singapore Tour is available for free to
passengers transiting at Changi Airport travelling on any airline.
Passengers should have at least five hours in transit.
