We had a lovely morning tour. We had never been down the River before and it was wonderful to see the land from the water a very different view. Also sites that could only be seen from the water. We then went to the Singapore Flyer and shops. Then we drove around some different areas of Singapore. All in all a lovely tour and a wonderful way to spend the morning before boarding our cruise ship.

Jon knew his tour like he was reading a script. A bit theatrical for our taste, but I'm sure entertaining for some.
Bernice C.United States

Jon is an AMAZING tour guide. He was flexible and wanted to be sure I got to see everything I wanted to see. He was so knowledgeable about the city.....it's past, present and future. I definitely felt like I was in good hands and was treated like a VIP. I wanted to book him again because he was so good!

Your Singapore tour itinerary
The Singapore River Singapore's lifeline for over 150 years, this 3. 2-kilometre long river that flows through the Central Business District was once bustling with trade and commerce. This is a suggested itinerary, let me know what you would like to see and do and I will customize the tour accordingly!, your tour starts with the drive to Boat Quay - Singapore River, where it all begins. With your guide, walk along iconic river as you hear about the history the district, dating back to when early Chinese immigrants arrived here. Next, the exciting part of your tour begins as you hop a bumboat, a modern replica of a traditional riverboat once used to carry cargo up the Singapore River. On board, glide along the river and admire Singapore's decorated skyline, including Marina Bay Sands Enjoy a drink from Celavi located on top of Marina Bay Sands
