In Singapore where housing now takes the form of high rise apartments, the countryside setting is a thing of the past. I was fortunate enough to grow up in a village where life was carefree and laid back. The simple joy of climbing tree or swimming in the river never fails to excite. Let's relive the village life and hop on a bumboat to Pulau Ubin, an island off the northeast of Singapore. Considered the last kampong (village) in Singapore, one is transported back in time to life in the '60s, where water is still drawn from wells, stoves fired by wood and lights powered by generator. Explore the natural habitat at Chek Jawa Wetlands and appreciate one of Singapore's richest ecosystems. Tour a fruit orchard and get to know the different fruits like durian, rambutan and jackfruit among others, grown by the villagers as crop. Visit a kampong house to see how life was like and the everyday activities that goes on in the household. A perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city with a local.
The itinerary includes the following: 1. Chek Jawa Wetlands, appreciate 6 different ecosystems at one go 2. Fruit Orchard, wander through and discover the local fruits grown by villagers as crop 3. Kampong house, marvel at a village house and uncover the activities in the household ============================ Note: * Itinerary can be customized to your needs, please send me a message. * Chek Jawa is best visited when the tide is low * Do wear comfortable walking shoes as there is walking on grass and gravel * Do bring along sun protection, like hat or cap to protect from the sun * Do bring drinking water and keep hydrated * Do bring a change of clothes (if you sweat easily) and towel to wipe down
