Itinerary
Description
See Singapore’s Chinatown through the eyes of a local during a walking tour with a resident of the enclave. Born and raised in Chinatown, your guide will offer a personal account of their childhood experiences in the area. Rather than navigating the colourful neighbourhood alone, you’ll find out cultural and historical information that you’re unlikely to find in the guidebook. You'll hear all about encounters with colour characters from Samsui women, secret society members and more!
