Want to utilise your SingapoRediscovers Vouchers (SRV) together with your elderly family members? Here are a few senior-friendly activities you can consider!
Convincing our elderly family members to make use of their free $100 SRVs can be a daunting task. We know, because we’ve been in your place. They 1) don’t want to walk (bye walking tours) 2) don’t want to spend long hours in the sun (bye Jurong Bird Park, Zoo, River Safari and the likes) 3) want to mostly just chill in an air-conditioned space no thanks to Singapore’s unforgiving heat (Bye… All sorts of outdoor attractions?).
With that in mind, we’ve scoured the internet for some senior-friendly activities that are chill, relaxed and with minimal walking that even the whole family can enjoy as well!
Last updated on 8 March 2021. Prices and activities subject to change. Prices listed for youth and children are before deduction of $10 SRV subsidy.
