All About Singapore Visitor Centre

Singapore Visitor Centre, Singapore Overview

A two storey Peranakan shophouse in the Emerald Hill area, Orchard Road, the Singapore Visit Centre (SVC) can more so be regarded as a one-stop shop for tourists and travellers. From selling locally designed souvenirs to tours and attractions, event tickets to the booking of accommodations, the Singapore Visitor Centre caters to all traveller/tourist needs. One of the main highlights is its efficient use of technology to aid and assist visitors and tourists. The SVC has four different interactive kiosks that let the visitors browse through different attractions/ options and curate their own customised digital itinerary. This itinerary can either be emailed to the visitors or printed then and there. Apart from this, it houses two huge screens displaying various events and places of interests in the city.

The two-storeyed shophouse has an event space on its second floor. This floor has interactive and engaging activities that are specially organised for visitors and tourists that are interested in the Singaporean or Peranakan culture. These events are conducted on a monthly basis. The Singapore Visitor Centre has knowledgeable and well-equipped staff that will assist you in organising your own travel plans. Currently, there are four branches of the Singapore Visitor Centre. Their main branch is the one on Orchard Road.
