Singapore by bicycle

The business hub of Singapore has little to offer touring cyclists in itself, but is an excellent starting point for a tour in Southeast Asia.

Discuss your Singapore journey

Travelling by bicycle

Right beside the airport is the ferry to Bandar Penawar, which brings you almost to the southernmost point of Malaysia’s east coast. This east coast has little traffic and is one of the most beautiful parts of Malaysia and Southeast Asia as a whole.

Tradition and progress

Singapore itself is certainly worth a visit. Progress and tradition coexist within a very small space in this 400-square-kilometre island state, populated by two-thirds Chinese and one-third Indian residents.

Cleanliness and laws

World-famous for its cleanliness and strict laws against drug smugglers, including the death penalty, this small state sets high standards in Asia for technology and economic growth.

Prices and overnight stays

Singapore is not particularly inexpensive compared with Malaysia, especially when it comes to overnight accommodation.

Country and travel information

Singapore is in pole position as a starting point for your cycling tour through Malaysia. Singapore International Airport is only a stone’s throw from the ferry terminal to Malaysia’s east coast, where an amazing cycling tour can begin.
