SINGAPORE TOURS

SINGAPORE DAILY SIT IN COACH (SIC) SIGHT SEEING TOURS

SINGAPORE AT A GLANCE:

A multi-cultural melting pot, Singapore has much more to offer than shopping and skyscrapers. Peel away at its surface and you'll find a lot more than a globalization success story, and a vibrancy you weren't expecting. In fact, you'll find it hard to fit in all the temples, markets, natural wonders, nightlife and cuisine it has to offer, and probably leave wishing you'd seen more.
The best way to avoid regrets is to take an organised tour… Try a city trip through old Singapore, discovering the charms of Little India and Hindu temples en route, or experience a trishaw journey to Clarke Quay, Singapore's riverside nightlife hotspot. Or perhaps you'd like to escape modernity for a day with a trip to Old Malaya, or a leisurely cable-car ride to Sentosa Island? Whatever you choose, all your travel arrangements are taken care of — just bring a camera along!

Customers feedback

A must on any trip to Singapore is to visit one or more of the hawker centers. Basically the hawker centers are a variety of food stalls under one roof. The hawker stalls are somewhere between street food and a restaurant. Advantages are that the hawker centers have lots of seating, eating utensils, and are generally cleaner and safer than your average street food and every bit as delicious in most cases. If you've been street food shy in the past, definitely grab a snack, lunch or dinner at one of these centers! My favorite is Lau Pa Sat, Clementi Hawker Central more choices , but there are several all over Singapore.
