🛡️ Safety

Singapore

Singapore is one of the safest countries in the world. Violent crime is extremely rare, and the streets are safe to walk at any hour. Strict laws are vigorously enforced — fines for littering, jaywalking, and spitting are real and regularly issued.

Tbilisi

Tbilisi is remarkably safe for tourists. Georgia consistently ranks as one of the safest countries in the region, with very low rates of violent crime. Petty theft is uncommon compared to Western European cities. The biggest risks are traffic (drivers can be aggressive) and overindulging at a supra feast.

🚇 Getting Around

Singapore

Singapore has world-class public transit. The MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) rail network and extensive bus system cover virtually the entire island. Get an EZ-Link card or use a contactless Visa/Mastercard for seamless travel across all modes.

Walkability: The city center is very walkable with covered walkways (5-foot ways) protecting from rain and sun. Marina Bay, Chinatown, Little India, and Kampong Glam are all best explored on foot. Air-conditioned underground malls connect many MRT stations in the CBD.

MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) — SGD 0.92-2.20 (~$0.70-1.65) per ride with EZ-Link card

SBS Transit & SMRT Buses — SGD 0.92-2.20 (~$0.70-1.65) per ride

Grab — SGD 8-20 (~$6-15) for most trips within the city

Tbilisi

Tbilisi has a metro system, buses, and marshrutkas (minibuses). The city is walkable in the center but spread across a valley, so transit is helpful for longer distances. Ride-hailing apps are extremely affordable and the most convenient way to get around.

Walkability: The Old Town is very walkable but hilly — wear comfortable shoes. The area from Rustaveli Avenue through Rike Park to the Old Town is excellent on foot. Distances between neighborhoods can be significant, and the steep terrain makes walking tiring over longer distances. Bolt is your friend.

Tbilisi Metro (2 lines) — 0.50 GEL ($0.19) per ride

Buses & Marshrutkas — 0.50 GEL ($0.19) by bus; 0.80 GEL ($0.30) by marshrutka
