5.00This tour was great, the guide was very knowledgeable & able to answer all our questions. It made it so easy being on an air conditioned bus to get to all the stops that aren’t as easy to get to on public transport. Well worth doing.
Very interesting historical tour.

5.00Very interesting. Our guide Paul was very informative and went to great lengths to give us a feel of the history on the battles of Singapore. He explained the different areas of the soldiers graveyard and the meanings / writings on the headstones. It is a beautifully kept graveyard.

5.00Our Guide was extremely knowledgeable in regard to the WWII events/effects on Singapore itself and the Allied Military personnel there and also caught up in the Occupation. His knowledge of the sites, especially the history of the Commonwealth War Cemetery was very special. The Museum is excellent and overall the Tour is highly recommended by us.
