Best way to see Singapore?

In this ';Save My Feet'; campaign, I%26#39;m looking for the best way to see a clump of sites without killing my feet for the rest of my trip.

The following places are all within a 2 km radius... but to walk all that and hit most of these spots equates to 10+km. Doesn%26#39;t seem like THAT much, but each day of my trip will have lots of walking.

Little India, Ritz-Carlton, War Memorial Park, Esplanade Park, Peranakan Museum, Merlion Park, Fort Canning Park, Singapore National Library, Elgin Bridge, The Arts House, Parliament House, Raffles Hotel, Chijmes, St. Andrew%26#39;s Cathedral, Clarke Quay

I want to rent a bicycle to cut down on the time between points... but...

- we can%26#39;t bike on on sidewalks

- sounds like biking on streets is dangerous in Singapore

- most bike shops aren%26#39;t in the area (starting around Bugis)

Any suggestions on alternative ways to get around those places? Would love to rent a razor/scooter, but somehow I don%26#39;t think those would be allowed either.

Also, what%26#39;s the best place to see Singapore from an elevated height (aside from Sky Tower)? Somewhere I can take some nice pictures of the city or skyline. Or even some good photography points of the city from ground level.

Thank you in advance for any answers.... :D

Get yourself an ezilink MRT card (for the trains and buses) and you%26#39;ll be fine. The trains come every few minutes and stop everywhere... there are train stations calles little india, china town, raffles, clarke quay, etc so you%26#39;ll get to just about everywhere you want on a train in a few minutes.

View Singapore from the are - there is also the big ferris wheel thing (I forget the name, but it%26#39;s a bit like those big wheels in london, paris, et) - it has just been closed for rennovations, but may reopen soon. This has a great view of the skyline, and moves slow enough to take photos.

Thanks! My main concern with busing is that the places on my list seem too closely clustered to bus between them. Here%26#39;s a map I created in Google Maps and you can zoom into the main part of Singapore. Most locations are less than 300m away from the next.

But lining up one point to the next makes it a long walk.

If money is not an issue, book a taxi for a few hours. There are taxi drivers who are also guides. Or else take MRT and buses, and if you are worried that there are no bus stops in such a short distance, then cover your points of interest not consecutively, but cris-crossing. (i.e. instead of A, B, C, D, E, F, you can do A, D, F, B, E, C). But then you need to have accurate information of the bus and MRT routes.

Thanks! I did a tried to increase efficiency of this trip and reduce walking by doing some re-planning, taxiing a little, MRTing, and possibly busing. I%26#39;ve also taken some places and put them on other days to not try to see too much at a time.
