Key Information for Vacationers

There are four main ways to get between Changi Airport and Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal, however it is highly recommended to book a professional airport transfer to ensure a seamless, relaxed transit between your flight and ferry.

 

  • SARO Transfer: The fastest, most convenient door-to-door option with flat fares, flight-monitoring, professional drivers and spacious vehicles, especially for groups with bulky luggage like golf bags, bicycles or fishing equipment.

  • Ride-Hailing Apps: You can book rides via Grab, Gojek, Tada or Ryde when you’re ready, but the pricings are subject to peak-hour surges, vehicle availability and the service standard vary depending on the drivers.

  • Standard Taxi: Readily available at the designated taxi stands at both the airport arrivals and the ferry terminal, but be prepared for unpredictable fares based on meter, airport surcharges and peak-hour add-ons.

  • Public Bus & MRT: The most economical option but the slowest too. You can take the shuttle bus which runs every 15 minutes between the airport and ferry terminal. Alternatively, take the Bus No. 35 from Tanah Merah MRT Station.

The Changi International (SIN) Airport is less than 10km away which is a 15-minute drive via private transfer, and the Seletar (XSP) Airport is less than 25km away which is a 25-minute drive via private transfer.

Easily book your transfers from either airports with SARO and guarantee yourself a seamless transition to and from your ferry to Desaru, Bintan or Batam. View our dedicated Changi Airport transfer and Seletar Airport transfer pages for a deeper dive.
