There’s no doubt that the demand for travel has soared through the roof since the easing of restrictions, but something that’s also on the rise are airline and accommodation fares. While you save up for that big summer trip this year, why not reconnect and explore the magic of new experiences right here at home?
Ditching the tedious task of packing your luggage and waiting in spiralling airport security lines, Native is a premier lifestyle concierge bringing just as much of an epic fun as your travel itinerary to Singapore’s entertainment scene.
Ever find yourself getting lost in the monotony of life and hitting up the same few restaurants and cafes and doing the same old things for all your dates, friend group hangouts and solo outings? With our hectic schedules, we barely get to explore what’s in our own backyard. Reinvigorating local tourism, Native partners with the city’s top lifestyle brands, including F&B, fitness, wellness, along with arts & culture, to bring you an ever-changing rotation of unique experiences and access to the most exclusive events.
