Malaysia and Singapore Budget and Tips

Describing our combined budget for Malaysia and Singapore is a little bit like trying to average your restaurant bills for a hamburger joint and a steakhouse.

Yet for us, given how we used Malaysia as a jumping off point for Singapore, there is just no easy way to separate the two, so here you have it: our combined Malaysia/Singapore budget. But any way you slice it, we did a fantastic job traveling cheaply while we were in these two countries. We spent a total of $1,777 during our 16-night stay in Malaysia and Singapore. This equates to $778 a week and well under our $1,000 goal. read more
