Why people love Singapore

5 /5

Highly recommended
Singapore Musical Box Museum
It is a very small museum yet the collections are surprising 'heavy weight champions'. The founder Mr Orui is very passionate as he led the tour and gave detailed explanations. I enjoyed the session a lot, and learned much about Singapore history too. Highly recommend this place. Also do not miss out the cafe too. Nice local food and desserts.

Highly recommended
Kelong and Pulau Ubin Guided Boat Tour
Enjoyed seeing the skyline of Singapore from another angle, a floating village, wakeboarders having fun, and white-bellied sea eagles soaring in the sky. Robin is a natural as a tour guide -- his narration is interesting, well-paced and unforced. This is an eye-opening excursion for family and friends, and a good use for the Singapore Rediscover Vouchers.

Highly recommended
The Creepy Tales of Singapore Ghost and WWII Tour with Point to Point Transfer
Great experience for both enthusiasts and skeptics of the paranormal alike! The tour brings you to a trio of far-flung places in Singapore that you will never think of exploring at night (Bukit Brown cemetery anyone?), peppered with stories of spooky encounters that will send a tingle down the spine of the bravest of souls. History buffs will not be disappointed as well, as Stanley does a good job in providing an engaging and interactive account of events in Singapore during WWII
