Is renting a bike to go on tourist spots around Singapore viable?

Good morning.. Yes.. there's only 1 company that does that.. I was trying to come up with a video on that. but long story short, company name is https://aloride.com/faq/

 

Can I use my foreign driving licence to rent in Singapore?

 

If you are a short-term visitor: Yes, you can!

• If your licence is in English, you can legally ride in Singapore.
• If your licence is issued by a South-East Asia country (ASEAN: Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, …), your driving licence is recognised in singapore and other ASEAN member countries.
• If your licence is NOT in English, you will need to either get an international driving permit or an official English-translated of your licence by an embassy.

Please note that your foreign driving licence is only valid to use in Singapore with 2B class motorbike (under 200cc) for up to 12 months from the date of visa entry. After that, you will have to convert to a singapore driving licence.

Depending on where you come from… riding in Singapore during this period can be a little annoying . Torrential storm and HOT weather in the sweltering heat can be a big turn off… and <=200cc bikes for rent are just … not as fun to ride if you are used to bigger bikes. 
 

so it really depends on why you wanna ride… the best way to get around is on the MRT or get a cab. That way you don’t get drenched on a daily basis
