Reviews
it was a lovely tour, seeing the sights of Singapore Chinatown that I have never seen before. Our guide Mr Seah was very knowledgeable and experienced, explaining everything to us in detail. it was a fun day.
Our guide and host, Mr Seah, did a wonderful job accompanying my wife and I around the telok ayer and Chinatown districts, the many murals by YC Yip. We learned about the Baba culture, interesting details about shophouse architecture, chinese migrant life, beliefs and temple significance. Thank you Mr Seah for your enthusiasm, insights and good company.
The Song Fa Bak Kut Teh meal is nice. Experience beautiful scenery when cruising.
The lights along the river are beautiful, and the boat glides steadily forward. The guide shared the history of Raffles' landing, and the lights on both banks were dazzling. A cool breeze blew, and the scenery was endless, especially the incredibly spectacular lights of Marina Bay Sands.
Our booking for Savouring Chinatown : Art, Hetiage & River Views for 16 December 2025 has been postpone to 20/12/2025 as informed by Otter Tours due to tour hasn't met the minimum pax to run.
