Car rental is an expensive option in Singapore. Smaller vehicles are usually cheaper and can be availed from major rental agencies, for which foreign licence is required. Most people rent cars to travel to Malaysia. One can cross the border to Johor Bahru using these cars.
Avis Car Rental, Alpine Car Rental, Hertz, Orix and CityLimo Pte Ltd. are the major car rental agencies in Singapore. Offices of these rental agencies are located at major markets, streets, the Changi International Airport Terminal 1 & Terminal 2 Arrival Halls, Scotts Road and Havelock Road.
Their fleets consist of Proton Wira, Toyota Corolla, Misubishi Lancer, Hyundai Accent, Nissan Bluebird, Volvo S60, Mercedes Benz, Honda Accord and Odyssey. Fleet of insured passenger vehicles also include luxury cars like Mercedes Benz, limousines and multi-purpose vans.
The charge for a car includes cost of gas, which is around 81.77 INR/litre and electronic road pricing (ERP) fees. ERP payments require a stored-value Cash Card. As in UK, Singaporeans drive towards the left and follow a speed limit of 90 km per hour on expressways and 60 km per hour on other roads.

I am planning a Singapore trip with 3-nights on ‘Star Cruise Virgo’ (Singapore-Phuket-Penang) with my wife and 2-year-old son. For anyone who has been on the cruise, could you please guide me on a few queries…
1.) How different is the experience between the ‘balcony room’, ‘porthole window room’ and ‘inside stateroom’ on the cruise? Am I missing too much if I don’t opt for the balcony room? Wanted to be very sure because there’s a huge difference between the room tariff – around Rs 16000 per person (SGD 400)
2.) Are there decent vegetarian food options on cruise? Is Indian cuisine available or am I asking for too much?
3.) Are the land excursions (in Phuket and Penang) organized by Star Cruise worth going for?
4.) What are the non-operational dates of cruise due to monsoon or bad weather? I plan my tour in April or May 2012.
5.) Finally what are the entertainment options aboard cruise? Any thing in particular that I shouldn’t miss…
Would really appreciate genuine feedback. Thanks in advance

Anyone who has been to the 'Jurong Bird Park' in Singapore... can you please guide me on a few queries
- Should I see the bird park on 'panorail' (I've a 2 year old kid) or exploring on foot would be more interesting?
- Do I need to take the 'guided tours' in Bird Park or going by myself is sufficient? (The guided tours are damn expensive at $25 per person)
- If I go for 'Night Safari', would I miss something if I don't go to the 'Zoo'?
- How far is the 'Night Safari' park from the 'Bird Park'? What is the mode of transport and how much would it cost?
- Any other things I shouldn't be missing at the 'Bird Park' or 'Night Safari'... pls do let me know.
Would really appreciate genuine feedback. Thanks in advance
