Very knowledgeable guide, visiting very somber places, that have so much sad history, that we need to honour and learn from. Highly recommend

Our guide Siwa was very knowledgeable and spoke with passion for the whole trip without notes. The memorials were immaculately maintained and laid out respectfully.

This 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.

Small group tour and very interesting. Our guide had a lot of local and historical knowledge. It included a very poignant visit to Kranji war cemetery.

Our tour of the Singapore Battlefields was excellent. Our tour guide was very friendly, professional and informative. Every aspect of the battlefields and War cemetery were explained in detail and we had ample time to view these sites at our leisure. The Highlights for us were the Singapore War Cemetery and Changi Chapel and Memorial.
