Our “Secret Singapore” tour of the Civic District includes some little-known corners of the Fullerton Hotel and the hidden backstory of two heritage bridges which span the Singapore River. We’ll show you an often overlooked little elephant with royal lineage, a secret cemetery with tombs of 19^th century pioneers, and much more!

Our “Secret Singapore” tour of historic Fort Canning and its foothills will uncover the many layers of this fascinating hillock where much of Singapore’s early story took root. We’ll check out an old lighthouse that helped guide ships into the harbour in the first half of the 20^th century and also learn more about an imposing memorial to a young child. Follow us to a pair of mid-century gateposts that mark a Singapore institution that was once so very important, and nearby, to a 19^th-century bell with a prestigious pedigree. And more!

Our “Secret Singapore” tour of the Bras Basah area will shed light on some pieces of the past you’re probably not aware of, from an elaborate building façade that once housed an early 20^th-century car dealership to the place where a prison and an expansive laundry production line once stood. We’ll show you a gorgeous old copula where the rich and famous used to gather for the view of the nearby racecourse, after which we’ll explore the back story to the colourful Albert Street area ending with the story of Judaism and Catholicism in Singapore. And much more!
