Stroll Through the Past Present and Future of Singapore

The tour starts at the exact location where Singapore was first transformed from a sleepy fishing village to the powerhouse it is today - the Singapore River.

After a short stroll, we cross the river via the oldest bridge in Singapore and be instantly awed by the stately colonial buildings standing side by side modern skyscrapers punctuated by melodious chimes from the old clock tower.

From here we move forward (in time) to Marina Bay, where you will be spellbound by the stunning Singapore skyline. Once at the waterfront, look up to see the majestic Merlion, the beloved icon of Singapore, as he proudly keeps a watchful eye on the island. We will have some time here to take in the breathtaking view before travelling back (in time) to the old Supreme Court and City Hall where we get another glimpse of Singapore's skyline.  From here we will head to the tour's end point, where we get one final opportunity to view Singapore's Past Present and Future.

So, if you like to be mesmerised by stories and picturesque views of the past, present and future of Singapore all in a single walk then this is the tour for you. And when you combine this with my other tour, A Glimpse of Singapore, I am confident you will have a pretty good understanding of what makes this little island tick. 


The tour lasts 2 hours and 30 minutes
