Private History & Culture Tour with River Cruise, Hawker Dinner & Tea Tasting

Description

Join us on a journey through Singapore from past to present. Enjoy dinner in a Hawker Centre and a tea ceremony.

You start your journey with the founding of Modern Singapore by Sir Stamford Raffles, visiting historic colonial buildings to learn about the early pioneers who came to Singapore.

You will board a bumboat and cruise down the river through to the present day. Visit Merlion Park and soak in the sunset view of Marina Bay whilst learning about the mega construction project behind it.

Discuss the political reform by Mr Lee Kuan Yew and discover how Singapore went from third-world to first-world in one generation.

Feast on Singapore’s most iconic dish; Chicken Rice at the famous Maxwell Hawker Centre. Your guide will teach you Hawker Centre etiquette and point out all of the must-try foods in Singapore.

After dinner, retreat to a beautiful teahouse for a traditional tea tasting experience. Try the Imperial tea that Queen Elizabeth II was served in the very same teahouse.
