The Singapore Tourism Board has launched SingapoRewards, a new programme that offers complimentary experiences in Singapore for international visitors. This programme will run through 2023, and will provide visitors with an opportunity to try one of nearly 40 new or “off-the-beaten-path” experiences in Singapore for free.
From 7 March 2023, eligible short-term visitors to Singapore can redeem a free experience from a specially selected list of SingapoRewards activities. Many of these experiences will showcase less-well-known places of interest or provide access to unique, exclusive experiences. Collectively, these experiences will offer new perspectives of Singapore – even to returning visitors. Redemptions and bookings can be made on the VisitSingapore app or SingapoRewards microsite.
Keith Tan, Chief Executive Officer of Singapore Tourism Board, said, “Tourism has returned strongly to Singapore since our borders reopened fully last year. As more international travellers return, we want to enhance their experience of Singapore by introducing them to hidden gems that are unique to our country. By focusing on innovative experiences,
SingapoRewards also provides a platform for local businesses to launch and test new products and offerings. I invite all visitors to explore our city’s diverse offerings through SingapoRewards, and to share their positive experience with others.”
A better way to holiday in Singapore
SingapoRewards was successfully piloted from Oct 2022 to March 2023 in Australia, India and Indonesia. With the full global launch, visitors can look forward to different activities to suit their interests and itineraries. These are curated across various precincts and categories:

Suen Tat Yam, founder of Monster Day Tours said, “We designed The Jewel Connection: Changi Airport & Jewel Changi Walking Tour to offer a rare insider look at one of the world’s best airports. Since the SingapoRewards campaign piloted in October 2022, we’ve received such positive feedback on the tour that we can’t wait to roll it out to more visitors.”
Founder of Brass Lion Distillery, Jamie Koh shared, ” Brass Lion Distillery is Singapore’s first full-fledged micro-distillery producing premium handcrafted spirits. Brass Lion is proud to welcome international visitors into our home. With our Distillery Tour, participants will be able to take a behind-the-scenes look at our process and enjoy a guided tasting flight of our flagship gins.
