Singapore shared transfers — also known as Seat-in-Coach (SIC) transfers — are the most cost-effective way to move around Singapore on a pre-booked, scheduled basis. Instead of paying for a whole vehicle, you book a seat and share the ride with other travellers heading the same way. Travel DMC operates SIC transfers across Singapore together with our transport partner KP Transport, covering airport transfers, attraction transfers and city tours on fixed daily timings — with net rates for travel agents.
What our Singapore shared transfers cover
Airport transfers. Scheduled shared rides between Changi Airport and centrally located city hotels — the cheapest way to pre-book your arrival or departure with a guaranteed seat. For a full comparison of airport options, see our guide to Singapore airport transfers.
Attraction transfers. Shared transfers between the city and Singapore’s headline attractions — from Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay to Universal Studios and S.E.A. Aquarium on Sentosa — so guests can sightsee without arranging a car each time.
City tours. Scheduled, guided SIC city tours that take in the cultural districts, the civic and heritage core and the Marina Bay waterfront — an easy, low-cost way for independent travellers to see the highlights.

Why travellers and agents choose SIC
- Lowest fixed cost — the vehicle and driver are shared across passengers, so the per-person fare is the most economical pre-booked option.
- Booked and scheduled — your seat is confirmed in advance on a fixed timing; no queuing, no surge pricing.
- Agent net rates — travel agents and operators get net SIC rates they can package and mark up.
- One ground partner — transfers, attraction tickets, hotels and tours coordinated through a single Singapore DMC contact.
SIC or private — which should you book?
Choose SIC (shared) for the lowest fare when you’re flexible on timing and staying centrally. Choose a private transfer when you want a direct, door-to-door ride on your own schedule — best for families, late arrivals, or hotels outside the central zone. Our Singapore airport transfer guide compares both in detail.
