Explore the city by driving round the Civic District, passing by the Padang, Singapore Cricket Club, historic Parliament House and the National Gallery Singapore. The Gallery consists of the former Supreme Court Building and the City Hall.
Next, stop at the Merlion Park and enjoy the impressive views of Marina Bay. Do not miss out this picture-taking opportunity with The Merlion, a mythological creature that is part lion and part fish.
Visit Thian Hock Keng Temple, one of Singapore’s oldest Buddhist-Taoist temples, before driving past Chinatown.

1.00Hotel pick up was very late ie after scheduled tour start time, guide was very poor, hard to understand and not helped by cheap microphone - speaker system during walking parts of the tour, safety issues when getting off the bus - into traffic not acceptable don't bother booking this tour.

5.00It was really great experience: 1st time visit Singapore. Pickup timing and the tour guide explanation and show points was really amazing. Captin: Harpreet (A2C) is really kind and planned for drop-offs at requested stops. I recommend if you’re are a 1st time visitor.

4.00Good: balanced insight into historic and modern Singapore with knowledgeable guide. Flexibility to stop at ongoing event near Chinatown and time for a little independent wandering around the MARINA Bay area
Nice morning in Singapore

5.00A whirlwind tour of the mosque, china town and the fantastic orchid garden at the botanical gardens. Our guide from Tour East was very knowledgeable (being a 70-year old local really showed!). He could answer all our questions and educated us about what living is Singapore is all about.
Beautiful cultural landmarks

4.00I really enjoyed the tour, it provided some great insight to the cultures in Singapore, how Singapore values its citizens and the places we visited were all interesting and beautiful. I would have liked to been able to eat and drink on the bus and had time to shop on these stops as this will most likely be my only trip to Singapore
Great introduction to...

5.00Great introduction to city with some of the sights covered. Botanic gardens were beautiful, just wish we had a bit more time there. Friendly guide and clear instructions. Allows you to note places you want to go/return to in your own time. Pleased with service and that I booked this tour for my first day.
Great experience

1.00This was one of the worst tour experiences I’ve ever had. The tour was supposed to start at 9:00 AM, but the pickup information was extremely confusing. The confirmation only listed two pickup points — Paradox Singapore (Clarke Quay MRT Station) and “selected hotels” — with no clear instruction about which one I should go to. Normally, tour companies message or email guests before the tour with clear details, but I received no communication at all. I arrived at my hotel lobby at 8:30 AM and asked around, but the people there were from another tour company. I then went to the other listed meeting point at Clarke Quay MRT Station, but no one was there, and the information didn’t even mention which exit to use. I checked both meeting points several times, walking back and forth to make sure I didn’t miss anyone, but still no guide or staff showed up. As it was almost 9:00 AM, I called and messaged the company multiple times, but no one answered or replied. When I contacted Viator, they told me the tour had already left without picking me up — and shockingly, the company refused to offer a refund. I have traveled to Singapore, Korea, and Taiwan, and joined many tours through different companies. All of them were organized and communicated clearly — except this one. This was by far the most unorganized and unprofessional tour company I’ve ever encountered. They completely ruined my day and wasted my time and money. I strongly recommend avoiding this company.
A helpful start to our stay

4.00The tour gave a good overview of the city and gave us ideas what we would like to do next. Tour guide very friendly and attentive with good knowledge. Joiners from disparate hotels made organisation appear somewhat frenetic
