6. Vintage tram joyride
Every day, a charming vintage tram patrols the streets of Clementi, carting residents back and forth from Clementi MRT. For a small fee of $1.30, you can hop on this quirky joyride that connects to Clementi Park Condominium, with designated stops along the way.
The shuttle runs every half an hour from 6.30am to 8.30pm, and children can ride for free. Note that there is no service between 11am and 4pm.
