Feeling drained after a long flight? Recharge at Singapore Airport’s gardens and parks! One of the best free things to do inside Singapore Airport is to visit the Shiseido Forest Valley.

You don’t even have to worry about sweating—the temperature inside is maintained at a comfortable cooling level.

4. Go on a free Singapore tour

Have enough time to spare before your next flight? Singapore Airport offers a Free Singapore Tour to its transit passengers. You only need at least five and a half hours of transit time to go on a two-hour tour around The Lion City! There are three tours to choose from: the Heritage Tour to see national monuments, the City Sights tour for Singapore’s premier buildings, and the Jewel, which showcases Changi Airport’s latest developments. 

5. Have fun inside an indoor playground

Flying with kids? Take them to the playgrounds in Terminals 1, 2, and 3, and never have to worry about them being bored for hours on end! Your kids will definitely enjoy running around with other kids, climbing obstacle courses, zooming down slides, and so much more. The best thing about these playgrounds is that they’re indoors, fully-padded, and air-conditioned!

6. Watch and take pics of the Rain Vortex

When you think of Singapore Airport, does the image of the breathtaking indoor waterfall pop into your head? Get a chance to see the waterfall in real life when you visit the Jewel. The HSBC Rain Vortex is located inside the Shiseido Forest Valley and is seven storeys tall, making it the world’s tallest indoor waterfall. For the million-dollar-shot, head down to B1 and B2 to get inside the Water Skin acrylic column for a selfie!

7. Admire art installations

You don’t have to swipe any cards to enjoy Singapore Airport—just take a stroll and admire art installations scattered around the airport. At T4, you can find the majestic Les Oiseaux (The Birds) and the iconic Kinetic Rain at T1, which is made of over a thousand bronze droplets. Some installations are available temporarily, so there’s always something new to see inside. Be sure to hunt all the artwork you can during your layover.

8. Visit the Viewing Malls

Wanna watch aeroplanes take flight? Pass the time at the Viewing Malls in Terminals 1, 2, and 3 and get front-row seats to all that airside action. Watch ground ops on the tarmac and observe planes take off. If you’re an aviation enthusiast, this is the best free thing to do at Singapore Airport.

9. Take a power nap

Looking for a spot to catch some shuteye? Thanks to Singapore Airport’s Snooze Lounges, there’s no need to curl up on the floor! Get your much-needed power nap on one of its comfy couches or recliners and enjoy the dimmer lighting and quiet atmosphere of these rest zones. If you find yourself at T2, check out the Oasis Lounge, which has ambient sounds to help you block out noises!

10. Go on a hawker feast

This ain’t free, but a trip to Singapore wouldn’t be complete without a major food binge! Lucky for you—you won’t even have to step out of the airport to enjoy a hawker feast. Around 80 eateries and restaurants are located at various terminals. Craving for some aromatic Hainanese Chicken Rice or Bak Kut Teh? Head to the Singapore Food Street at T3!
