I was in Singapore for two nights and felt safe the whole time. The Marina was amazing to wander round and soak up the buildings and Harbour, and the Gardens by the Bay were a standout. I'd really recommend these, they're beautiful. The view from the top of the tower building is awesome too although I'd recommend going at night as the bar doesn't open during off peak times. All in all, was a great stop over option and two nights was enough to explore the city.
Posted: August 12, 2024Experienced: June, 2024My experience in singapore was GREAT! I felt very safe and the people are extremely nice there as well. You meet a lot of local people and the food was AMAZING. Me and my family went to this Turkish restaurant and it was a 10/10! I recommend to definitely go to the gardens of the bay because it was such an amazing experience and it was absolutely beautiful. I also recommend to go on top of the Marina Bay Sands hotel with the boat and see the sunset, you won’t regret it.

Singapores gardens and beaches are incredibly beautiful, and I especially liked walking through "Gardens by the Bay" in the evening. I stayed at a hostel some distance away from the city centre because I like to budget travel and it was very easy to get around by public transport. I found the city to be very clean and I felt safe throughout my trip.
Posted: June 16, 2024Experienced: June, 2019I traveled to Singapore for one weekend from the Philippines. It was a last minute trip and I felt better booking the trip knowing I had family there at that time. I stayed in a little hotel away from all of the action and I took Lyft for most of my time in Singapore. Next time I will book closer to Sentosa and downtown so it is more convenient. I felt relatively safe traveling on my own and would definitely go back!

Singapore
It’s the safest city I’ve ever been. Even during late night, walking solo in little streets feels safe. The rules in Singapore are strict and this leads to a very respectful environment. If you cross the road with a man, the man will do two steps on the opposite side than you to avoid touching you by any chance. They want to avoid troubles. Enjoy the city (which is amazing) in the safest mood even if you are a female solo traveller!
Posted: March 28, 2024I felt safe! There were so many things to do and it was very very easy to get around especially as a solo female traveler! It was quite pricey, food was good and I usually would get around via car service like Uber, or walking. Sometimes the metro/train too!
Posted: January 6, 2024Singapore is a great place to visit, however it is quite expensive. I felt very safe walking around, even at night. There is plenty of things to do for a couple of days but you don’t generally need any more time than that. I visited Sentosa island to go to Universal Studios which was fun but very expensive. Marina bay is definitely a must see and there is a free light show there at night. I stayed at Wanderloft Capsule Hostel which I would rate a 3/5. The bed was good and quite enclosed so you could have privacy however the bathrooms and other areas of the accomodation definitely need some maintenance as it did not feel clean. The transport on the train is super cheap and easy to navigate so I never needed to take a taxi or Grab car, even getting to and from the airport.
Posted: December 17, 2023Great City to explore. An Overall really safe place. Accomodation is expensive, but Food can be cheap and delicious in the Hawker Centers. Drinks in the evening are mostly expensive as well, especially in some rooftop bars, but it's worth it🤭
Posted: December 7, 2023Experienced: October, 2023I had a great experience. It was a good size for seeing around in short time. People are kind. City is clean. Food is tasty. Only bad point is that many things are more expensive. But you can get affordable price and tasty food at hookers.

Singapore has very strict laws. Every wrong things you do will have consequences. It is a country that has fines for quite alot of things. Especially littering. Police often to rounds and there are also alot of cameras.

Safe, every minding their own business. Hence what I feel is 60% local in public transport and 40% foreigners. Singapore main language is English. So ubdont have to worries about transport or road name.

In my mid-30s, a short hair female traveller from Singapore who loves to travel around the world and explore hidden gems! Pretty much excited for my upcoming travel! 👻🐺👽
Singapore is definitely a safe country for solo female travellers. It is completely safe to explore and walk around even at night time. To safe money and at the same time have a local experience, I recommend taking public transportation (buses and MRT trains) and eating at local hawker centres all around Singapore. My top recommendation for places to go is Gardens by the Bay, where you can choose the paid attractions, or just exploring in the gardens for free. Don’t miss the free light show at the Supertrees at night!
Posted: July 19, 2024Public transport is really convenient here. You can get anywhere by train or bus, and payment can be made with any contactless credit card/mobile payment. Google maps will be your best friend when navigating around!

Singapore is super safe for women! Guys are largely respectful. Foodie paradise. We have excellent international cuisine, you name it we have it done really really well (price tag tho may be the issue here haha) To save money eat at our hawkers!!! Awesome food at a decent price point. Avoid cafes!!! Food is expensive and at times not reliably delicious. Gmaps is very reliable here. For transport, food delivery you can use Grab.
Posted: March 30, 2024Singapore is extremely safe for both young and female solo travellers! Many would say that Singapore is rather expensive but in my opinion it is because tourists aren’t finding the local gems. Eating out in Singapore can be extremely cheap if you go to the right places such as coffee shops or hawker centres and if you are interested in eating authentic food these are the places to be as many owners of these stores have been honing their skills for the past 30 years. Furthermore you do not need to pay to appreciate Singapore’s attractions. Things like the Marina Bay area are a sight to behold and it’s all for free!

Very safe for solo female travellers, like you can literally leave your laptop in a cafe, go to the toilet, and no one would take it. Not much to do for a long trip so try to make it a short one. You can spend a day in sentosa and maybe 1-2 days exploring all the other tourist attractions. It’s pretty expensive to eat around these tourist areas though, especially restaurants. Opt for hawkers centres, food courts, and coffee shops for more affordable dining!
Posted: October 12, 2023A sunny tropical island perfect for those who are escaping the winter season in their own countries! Lovely people and so much food that are cheap and good. Would definitely come back again although it’s expensive.
Posted: May 22, 2023Go to Sentosa and stroll along the beaches. Depending on when you're there, check out a festival or art exhibition, as well as visit some rooftop bars, walk around Marina Bay, go to the Gardens by the Bay in the evening and walk through Tiong Bahru. Singapore is amazing, I used to live there.

Am 50+, a mother with one daughter. And a young heart. Love traveling to explore local culture and meet people in different places different religions different races. After some experiences I learnt that all over the world, human beings are quite similar, love to live a life sufficiently and in peace, and everyone of us also has her own little troubles conquer. I liked couchsurfing a lot, used it since my first long trip in Europe together with my daughter back 2013. And had also hosted many sisters and couples from different countries in Singapore. Had made many friends ever since. But later felt couchsurfing community seemed change, it was not like before anymore. And I am no longer there i am able to provide one room from now to end Jul 2024.
