Full description

Discover the true heart of Singapore on this specially curated 3-hour tour that combines old world charm with modern grandeur.
Your journey will begin at the 19th-century Thian Hock Keng Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Singapore's oldest national monuments. This architectural masterpiece, built without a single nail, is more than just a place of worship, it served as the first landing site for pioneer seafarers. You will hear touching stories about those who created this country, right on the shore where it all began.

From the sacred we move on to the picturesque. We stroll through the lush greenery of An Xiang Hill, overlooking the city, where colonial nutmeg plantations have been transformed into fashionable boutique districts. The highlight of this section of the trail is the stunning 40-metre mural on Amoi Street, a vibrant “visual story” that brings to life the story of Singapore's early immigrants right before your eyes.

Walking along Harmony Street, where mosques and shrines stand side by side, we reach the legendary Lau Pa Sat market. We'll arrive just before lunchtime and you'll be able to enjoy an exclusive VibTour tasting package, including local delicacies such as satay and refreshing calamansi juice, under the majestic Victorian cast-iron arches of this national monument.

Our journey will end with a picturesque walk to the embankment. After passing through the Fullerton Historic District, we arrive at Merlion Park. Here you'll take a classic photo of the Merlion against the backdrop of the world-famous Marina Bay Sands skyline - the perfect end to a morning spent exploring the soul of Singapore.
