Overview
As Singapore sits at a crossroads of East and West, it is a complex mix of cultures and history. At first glance, you will see a city that is modern with beautiful avenues and soaring architecture. A closer look reveals the heritage of its Eastern and European pasts. You will travel through the three Ethnic neighborhoods, each of them fascinating and unique, offering a new scene with different foods, traditions, and entertainment.
Our tour will bring you into these neighborhoods and along with the stories of how each developed, you will get to taste the local food. The biggest surprise will be Little India, the most interesting and colourful Ethnic area in Singapore. You will visit the Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple, the oldest in the area and immense in the vibrancy, heady smells and sights of the area.
Kampong Glam, just next door, is anchored by the Sultan Mosque with its onion dome, and shops and parks surround it. This is a lovely area with both contemporary sophisticated boutiques as well as old legendary shops where you can build your own fragrance to take home.
Chinatown - in 1822 Sir Stamford Raffles laid out a town plan that divided Singapore into clearly defined quarters - enclaves that remain distinctive even today. In the early 1980s, Singapore recognized the value of preserving its architectural heritage for posterity and began restoring historic buildings. Chinatown was one of the first areas to be transformed and it is extensive and wonderful.
Your tour will be a mix of walking and public transport to allow you to cover the city in each area for the best introduction to Singapore.
