Expensive taxi ride

I took a taxi from Stamford Road to Orchard Hotel. It cost me $7.70, inclusive of the CBD surcharge. I find it to be too expensive for such a short journey.

I wanted to take a bus, but I could not find a bus that takes me close to the destination.

  1. you can take 36 (coming form the airport) from Stamford road. this service will loop at Tomlinson road then go down orchard road past your hotel.

  2. The taxi driver has to pay high rental rates to taxi companies whose investments are risk free. Therefore the taxi fare is high but still low compared to other countries.
