Review for: Guided Tour with a "Majie"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Her Story of the Majies was an eye‑opening and informative tour. The guide shared interesting stories & insights from interviewees brought history to life. And a forgotten festival called Qixi whichwas widely celebrated by Majies to showcase their handicrafts skills. .Highly recommended for anyone interested in Singapore’s heritage.”
