Travelers’ Choice awards are the highest honour TripAdvisor can give and we are eternally grateful for the exceptional reviews from our tour guests, our fabulous guides and the rest of the team.
Rave reviews from our guests:
“I thoroughly enjoyed this informative tour, Carol, our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant to listen to. It gave a greater insight to the role of the allied forces here and their treatment by the Japanese. The stories of how the locals were treated were informative as you don’t normally hear of these in Australia. I learnt a lot about Singapore culture, ethnicity, education and history.”
– TripAdvisor member @Rudge500 from Australia
Our four hour tour went so quickly. Our tour guide supplied all the details I was looking for, her mixture of local stories of the fall of Singapore and Historical facts were interwoven beautifully. The sad stories of the brutality of soldiers in Changi prison supported by many photographs. These are the stories that must NEVER stop being told. Highly recommended. Tour Guide five stars for her enthusiasm in telling us the true stories of the Fall of Singapore and the stories and bravery of soldiers and local Singaporeans.
