Flight, food, stay charges
If you are availing a tour package, all the charges are included. But individual travellers will have to consider all the charges. Flight charges for Singapore from Hyderabad begin from Rs. 7,000. During sale offers, you can own a ticket for half the price, that is Rs. 5,000. The charges are almost the same from Chennai and Bengaluru.
Metro rail charges in Singapore are two Singapore dollars (each dollar is near about Rs. 50). The minimum charges for a taxi is three dollars. Later, half a dollar extra is charged for every km. Drivers run the meter and take the fare accordingly, as a rule.
For staying in a good hotel in Singapore, it costs Rs. 5,000 per day. The same is Rs. 3,000 per day, for a modest hotel. With a little bit of searching, you can find some cheaper hotels. You can visit http:www.budgethotels.sg/ for more details. As far as food is concerned, Komala Vilas on Singapore Road, has Southern dishes, starting from Rs. 136. In South India's famous Sarvana Bhavan, breakfast is seven Singapore dollars and lunch and dinner are eight Singapore dollars. You can visit http://saravanabhavan.comsg/ for more details.
If you are planning the trip individually, then the charges for flight, local transport, hotel charges, food and other expenditure will come up to much higher than those offered by a package tour. On the other hand, if not on a packaged tour, you can extend your stay for a few more days and visit more places.
