Reviews
it’s my 1st going through a tour using an audio guide. interesting to know the past of Dempsey hill despite being a singaporean.
I love Dempsey Hill. A quaint sight.
It wasn't clear which code was required to download the tickets on Cinewav App. There should be automatic downloading on Klook website to be more seamless. The tour itself was ok but i prefer the usual group tour to audio.
