Not Your Usual Staycation: From Retired Bus To Sustainable Luxury Suite

Are you a bus enthusiast? There are plenty of interesting bus routes in Singapore to explore. But now, you can embark on a new journey with buses that don't move at all, thanks to The Bus Collective.

What is The Bus Collective?

The Bus Collective is a new initiative by WTS Travel that transforms retired public buses into luxury suites. Located in the heart of Changi Village, this upcycled bus resort boasts a fleet of 20 repurposed buses that occupy over 8,600 square metres of land.

"This project aligns seamlessly with the Green and Vibrant pillars of the East Coast Plan, breathing life into retired vehicles and setting a precedent for integrating eco-conscious practices within the construction and hospitality sectors," says WTS Travel Managing Director Micker Sia.
