The Great Singapore Escape

Posted by phyne

As Explore Singapore! kicks off, gear up for some adventure with its line-up of activities. For those looking to view our sunny island from different perspectives, here are some undiscovered gems in the itinerary worth looking out for.

Explore Singapore’s oldest – and some say coolest – shopping street in a guided tour with The Old Days of Club Street where you can discover hidden spots at Ann Siang Hill and learn about interesting facts surrounding Chinatown. Or ride the waves with a reservoir cruise for views of the city skyline at the Marina Reservoir, Singapore’s first reservoir in the city created by Marina Barrage.

Enjoy the sun, sand and sea in Nostalgic Fun @ Sentosa with a variety of heritage games and experience the sights and sounds of our history. You can even get a packaged price to the two offshore attractions Images of Singapore and Fort Siloso.

Round up the excitement at Rendezvous @ 8Q & SAM , meeting new friends over a romantic dinner.

Prefer something a little quieter? Don’t miss out on guided tours for a museum experience off the beaten path such as at TigerLIVE – a journey into the history of our world-acclaimed beer, Land Transport Gallery and more. Or trek up to the serene Reflections at Bukit Chandu for a documentary on the development of the centre which pays tribute to the brave Malay Regiment soldiers of World War II.

There’s something for everyone, so do come down today!
