106 (Bt Batok - Serangoon) via Orchard Rd/Little India/Botanical Gdns
061 (Bt Batok - Eunos) via Geylang, Chinatown, HarbourFront, Holland Village (very long route)
067 (CCK - Tampines) via Little India, Geylang, Upp Bt Timah (very long route also)
You can also try taking buses from City.
Most of the Bendy Buses doesn't go to very scenic places, but some of them have long routes just nice for you to enjoy the comfort.
Enjoy your ride!! -

There are very few services with bendy buses that pass by scenic places.Originally posted by |-|05|:ok here is the deal....my gf has nv taken those bendy buses before....so i wan to take her on a trip on 1.....Can recommand me a bus service with the bendy bus that also goes pass nice places(scenic places)?
Below are the other services you can try:-
a) 969: Between Woodlands and Tampines. Ply along SLE, can see nature area (bendy is mostly seen during peak hours)
b) 176: Between Bukit Merah and Bukit Panjang. You can alight at Henderson Rd and get to either Telok Blangah Hill Park or Mount Faber, or alight at Pasir Panjang Rd to get to Labrador Park.
c1) 190: Between Choa Chu Kang and New Bridge Road
c2) 960: Between Woodlands and Marina Centre
They ply along BKE, can see the scenic Central Catchment area and little view of the Upper Pierce Reservoir. -
Below are mostly long route trunk services with large fleet of bendy buses, perhap you can give them a try:-
61: Bukit Batok - Eunos
67: Choa Chu Kang - Tampines
106: Bukit Batok - Serangoon
176: Bukit Panjang - Bukit Merah

Depend on which type of buses you takes, the TV mobile also contribute to some of the noise.Originally posted by boy in blues: i find SBS bus beri noise pollution inside..can barely hear myself think..let alone communicate wif GF..bus 30 goes almost da length of S'pore..
Yes, service 30 is the longest SBST trunk service (2-directional), the journey between Bedok and Boon Lay takes you around 90 to 100 minutes and covers a distance of about 36 km. -
What about service 36? And other Night services,,, which is the longest?
i would recommend 190, and 960 on weekDAYS at night. Little India is colourful. However, my favourite road, in front of the Art museum where they are building SMU and circle line, is now gone!!
-
Hmmmm..
I always thought that Service 51 is the longest route in Singapore you know....

61 has a longer journey time, almost 2.5 hours.Originally posted by tranquilice:Depend on which type of buses you takes, the TV mobile also contribute to some of the noise.

Yeap, NR services are good choices to see the night life and scenery of S'pore. However, most of the services doesn't use Bendy Buses, besides NR7 which uses bendys during holiday seasons like Christmas and NR8 (are they perm?).Originally posted by oliver_yuen87:What about service 36?

I personally thk that Service 51 from JE to HG south is the longest route in Singapore.
My friend know of one Service 51 driver which drive 9109M say that, the time given to reach HG south from JE Int, is 2 Hours -
Service 51 may be amended to other place or terminates at Hougang Central (Hougang South interchange will be demolished) after the NEL starts.Originally posted by PT21:I personally thk that Service 51 from JE to HG south is the longest route in Singapore.
