All Singapore Tourist Passes Compared: Which One Should You Buy?
Singapore has three popular tourist passes. Only one includes Universal Studios, and for many trips no pass beats buying tickets. Here's how to pick.
Types of tourist pass
Day pass
Pay by the day. Unlimited attractions on your pass days.
In Singapore: Go City All-Inclusive Pass
Pick-your-own pass
Pay for a set number of attractions, then choose them as you go within a time limit.
In Singapore: Klook Pass Singapore, Go City Explorer Pass
Themed pass

Which pass for your trip?
Klook Pass Singapore
- 3-5 days, a few chosen paid attractions. Pay only for the 2-10 activities you pick.
Go City All-Inclusive Pass
- Universal Studios plus several big sights in 2-3 days. The only pass that includes USS. Worth it only if you fill every day.
Go City Explorer Pass
- A week, one or two sights a day, no USS. Pick 3-7 from the longest list, with 30 days to use them.
No pass needed
- Mostly free sights: Supertree Grove, Marina Bay light shows, hawker centres. They're free. A pass adds nothing.
- A short stopover, or one or two attractions. Buy those tickets directly.

Worth knowing before you buy
Universal Studios is on one pass only
The Go City All-Inclusive includes it. On Klook Pass it's an add-on, and the Explorer doesn't have it.
The big four don't cover a day pass
USS (about S$76), Gardens by the Bay domes (S$46), Singapore Zoo (S$49) and Night Safari (S$58) come to about S$229, less than the All-Inclusive's S$299 starting price.
Many top sights are free
The Supertree Grove, the Garden Rhapsody light show and the Marina Bay light show cost nothing. Don't count them as pass value.
Pair the zoo and Night Safari
They're next to each other in Mandai: the zoo by day, the Night Safari in the evening.
Whichever pass you pick, queues in the heat eat into your day. Check how busy each attraction is right now on beatthecrowd.co, and go where it's quiet first.

A pass in Singapore is a bet: the seller wins if you slow down, you win if you plan. Here's the business behind Klook Pass Singapore, Go City All-Inclusive Pass and Go City Explorer Pass.
Attractions such as Universal Studios Singapore give pass sellers a discount in return for guaranteed visitors.
Rainy days, late starts and skipped sights all count in the seller's favour.
Each extra day or pick on Klook Pass Singapore is only a saving if you'd really use it.

- Klook's Mandai wildlife pass
Singapore Zoo, Night Safari, River Wonders and Bird Paradise, valid for 30 days. Good if wildlife is your focus.
