What To Expect
Kampong Gelam
The tour takes you on a wandering walk beginning at the busy shopping malls at Bugis and leads you to the nearby historic neighbourhood Kampong Glam. Start the tour in the app, put your phone in your pocket, and let your guide direct you through the streets. The total walking distance is approximately 2km and takes about half an hour without stopping, but you can pause anytime! Most people will opt to stop for photography opportunities along the way. Be prepared for Singapore's unpredictable tropical weather as this tour takes place completely outdoors - bring along a hat or umbrella to protect yourself from the hot afternoon sun. The exact route can be seen upon downloading the tour, and audio from the tour can be listened to anytime. The tour takes place in outdoor areas which are mostly wheelchair accessible, but there may be roads and curbs that might not be the most wheelchair friendly.

Fun and informative

4.00I really enjoyed the tour. The only problem for me was the beginning.. meeting outside a station with multiple exits, under a sign that no longer exists. I tried them all before getting the right one ( Google maps is pretty useless with the underground tunnels in Singapore). When I finally found the starting point, everything became easy and thoroughly enjoyable. I went early morning, before the crowds which I recommend. I already had spent time in Kampong Glam but there was plenty of street art I discovered through this tour, as well as some of the background stories .
