Cultural  Tour
Route: From Changi Airport to Kampong Glam, Little India & Chinatown.

First up is Kampong Glam which showcases the rich history and culture of Singapore’s Malay community. Originally a fishing village at the mouth of Rochor River, this area was also the historic seat of Malay royalty in Singapore. Thereafter, the tour shall proceed to Little India, where its spice-scented streets beckon you to a cornucopia of ethnic jewellery, jasmine garlands and silk saris, complemented by delightful rows of Indian restaurants. To cap off the tour, a visit to Chinatown is a must, with a 15-minute stopover at the oldest temple in Singapore, the 160-year-old Thian Hock Keng Temple.

Contrasting cultures and quaint architectural germs make this a not to-be-missed tour and a splendid way to pass your time while in transit at Changi Airport.
*In the event of rain, the visit to Thien Hock Temple will be cancelled.

Colonial Tour
Route: From Changi Airport to Singapore River & Raffles Landing Site

From a quaint fishing village inhabited by the Orang Laut (translates as “People of the Sea”) to a busting metropolis, Singapore has undertaken a remarkable journey of transformation in just under 200 years since the British first set foot here.

Retrace the fascinating footsteps of history and showcase Singapore’s colonial legacy. Experience the juxtaposition of past, present and future as we take you on a 20-minute walk along the scenic Singapore River and to the renowned Raffles Landing Site. Continue the bus journey to enjoy the sights of Pandang, Supreme Court, City Hall, War Memorial and St Andrew’s Cathedral, as well as the famous Raffles Hotel - Singapore’s most graceful colonial landmark named after its founder Sir Stamford Raffles.

Classic colonial architectural highlights framed against the modern day skyline of the bustling city-state, this Colonial tour is certainly not to be missed.
*In the event of rain, the 20-minute walk at the Singapore River will be cancelled.
