Half-day Singapore City Highlights & Orchid Garden Tour

It's a great tour, especially if you're limited in time. The Botanical Garden is simply gorgeous. I recommend this tour.

Great introductory experience to Singapore incorporating early historical venues and how they have changed as Singapore evolved - linking the past and the present. Ending at the orchid garden with its stunning range of plants in flower. Delightful day with knowledgeable Tour Guide and Driver team. Thoroughly enjoyed, Great value for money and accommodated VFF C b mild - moderate mobility disabilities ..

Our guide Steve was very engaging - lots of insights (with humor) into life in Singapore. As this was our first visit to Singapore, we wanted a quick initial tour of some of the city's principal attractions, and this tour good for that. Bus was well air-conditioned, which makes things more comfortable in the high 80's - car 100% humid days. Meet up at the Paradox Hotel was straight-forward and timely.

Many wonderful stops on this tour. Lots of knowledge passed along. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to discover Singapore.

Excellent tour guide with amazing knowledge about Singapore’ history. Very pleasant and always eager to help. The transportation was comfortable

A well-paced way to see some of the highlights of Singapore in air-conditioned comfort. A good way also, to learn some of the history of Singapore. The orchid gardens were a highlight. We were lucky to have an hour there, as we were touring on a public holiday and the traffic was light.

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning city tour - our family of 6 highly rate this experience - our tour guide Paul was simply amazing - so professional, friendly and interesting - his knowledge was incredible and delivered in a fun and engaging way to entertain all age groups. Great way to get to know the city and the history. Suggest doing it early in your trip to Singapore.

Enjoyable, very informative some good memories caught on phone. Tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Stay at the Gardens was a bit long.

Our guide was really friendly and knowledgeable. It was great to be driven around the sites as we have walked everywhere so it was a nice day off! I grow orchids so the orchid garden was a real delight which we both really enjoyed.

Marie was our marvellous guide this morning. She was so knowledgeable about Singapore. She took us to a little shop where we were able to buy our drinks in a traditional plastic bag with straw.😀 We loved Kampong Gelam & Orchid Garden. We also experienced the Merlion Statue and Marina Bay Area. Highly recommend this tour to view Little India, Chinatown, Kampong Gelam, Merlion, Sultan Mosque, Telok Ayer, Thian Hock Kent Temple, Haji Lane, Arab Street, Orchid Gardens in an air conditioned van.

Tour was very good, with Sivu our guide was very informative and has a great sense of humour. Bus was very comfortable, with water bottles supplied to everyone. Touring the streets, local Taoist Temple and the Botanic Gardens was lovely, despite the heat.

Short tour but nice introduction of Singapore City and its highlight areas. Marie our tour guide is very knowledgeable of Singapore history and it’s highlight areas. Thanks.

It was perfect given that the weather is so hot and humid. It did not drain us. They were punctual and professional.

There were four stops with adequate time to take photos, but not time to look for souvenirs. Our guide, Marie, was excellent. She is very knowledgeable and shared both cultural and historical insights.

As first time visitors this tour was a great introduction to Singapore. Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Seamless hotel pick up and drop off.

Highlighted the main areas of the city with enough time to see different areas on foot, botanical gardens orchids were lovely

Good value for your money. Enjoyable. Knowledgeable guide _Paul. Comfortable air-conditioned transportation.

Really liked everything we did and saw on our morning tour. The guide was informative and friendly and made sure we took in as much as possible. It was a great experience. I would recommend this tour to give visitors a thorough taste of the city.

I had to call the tour operator in the morning to find out what was happening as the bus arrived almost 15 minutes late to pick us up from our designated meeting point. That aside, the tour itself was enjoyable and the guide was great.

Great tour with a very informative, friendly guide, who kept control of a very large group incredibly well. We covered all the key stops, however we got an extra one in Kampong Glam that meant I didn't get to spend as long at the National Orchid Graden as I'd have liked. That's a minor complaint though and I'd recommend this tour to anyone interested in getting an overview of Singapore

Great tour and our guide Maria was very informative. It had great stops at Kampong , Merlion & botanical gardens so it was a great way to get your bearings of Singapore.

Definitely a good tour if a traveler wants to cover maximum major attractions in a day. The guide was helpful and steered the tour efficiently.

While you wont see everything, nor cover anything in depth- it does provide a good overview of the city as well as hitting the major highlights. Its also great that it finishes at the orchid garden, so one can stay longer if wanted.

This is a proper tour, run by Tour East Singapore. Picked up and returned to your hotel afterwards. A jam packed four hour tour with a competent guide. Our coach covered a lot of the centre of Singapore, including driving on or past the F1 race track, stopped at the merlion, drove past Raffles, visited china town, and a temple and the orchid house at the botanic gardens

Our guide was very friendly and informative—well organized. Although I enjoyed getting all the information, some time without talking would also have been appreciated. Visiting the area near the mosque was okay but would like to have seen Little India. The visit to Thian Hock Keng Temple was very nice. I enjoyed the guide’s information.

This tour brings together 4 slightly random areas - the Malay area, the view of the modern reclaimed area, a Chinese temple and the botanical garden. You go between them by bus. Slightly random but the guide stitched these together quite well when talking to us on the bus. All were interesting and gave us a feel for Singapore. My main criticism though was that the guide spoke quite softly, so when we were outside it was hard to hear him. He also liked to tell jokes and ask us questions, which meant he talked for a long time. This meant that in the extreme heat and with a group of 26 people we had to stand really close to him and strain to hear, for say 10 minutes at a time. I think he could have done a lot more on the bus, where he had a microphone and it was cold.

The tour was good. But the bus driver was uncooperative. Rather than dropping us at the front of the Paradox Hotel he dropped us at the back in a side street.

Hotel pick up is very convenient for ist timer . Very knowledgeable tour guide . Tour bus is clean and very organized pick up and drop off

Bring plenty of water with you really nice experience lovely guide very knowledgeable we knew a lot about Singapore after the tour

Very informative and interesting tour. I would highly recommend to get a good feel for the city and its history.

Monica is very knowledgeable and has shared historical stuff with us . Tour was organized and covered areas we would have to go to on our own ; this was able to simplify for us so we can cover lots of areas in 3.5 hours .

Found tour quite boring Spent too long looking at a mural beside the mosque leaving very little time to enjoy the gardens

The tour was pleasant and well organized. Pickup at our hotel worked smoothly. However, the guide was somewhat difficult to understand, especially for those of us who are not native English speakers. On the bus, with a very poor sound system, it was practically impossible. The time spent in the orchid garden was far too short.

Good introduction to some of the sights of Singapore, but the guide we had was difficult to understand, and, on occasion, spoke very softly. Rather bizarrely he seemed to find virtually everything he said amusing, and laughed at his own remarks.

Very informative. Good to see where things are in relation to each other and lots of insider information about best places to go. Suitable for anyone, small amount of walking involved.

Superb communication throughout The tour was well organised and thoughtfully put together and varied. The guide was excellent and provided clear and precise instructions throughout. A great introduction to a first visit to Singapore

Wonderful way to get familiar with several different aspects of Singapore culture. Comfortable bus. Hop-on-off tours go more places but don't get into the depth this tour does. Guide was funny and kept everything going well..

Lots to see, history given about Singapore roots, lovely Botanical Gardens with orchids, Merlion Park

Fabulous tour, the Guide was so informative, kind and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would do the tour again. The Orchid Garden was spectaculr.

This was a good trip to see some of the tourist places of interest in Singapore,our tour guide Paul was very knowledgeable about the area and told us great history that you wouldn’t have known,I think the timing was about right with each visit as you have a lot to take in in just the morning.There is a bit of walking involved but not a great deal depending on where they can park the coach.

Very disappointed. Tried to reach them about rescheduling my tour and got no response. Missed tour and still charged. Next time I will book on arrival. Plenty of availability for tomorrow. I would have appreciated a response at least.

Excellent morning bus tour of the city covering China Town, a temple and main institutions buildings finishing with a visit to the Orchid gardens. Our guide was very knowledgeable and genuinely amusing. To organise such a large group of circa 30 people including end of tour bus transfers to different was impressive. Definitely recommend.

The places we visited were very interesting with information provided rich in cultural history. However, the guides microphone did not work while off the bus and couldn't hear him.

Nice tour, however the tour said be in the lobby by 8:15 which we were, but the guide came through a different door. Thankfully we were walking around the lobby or we would have missed her. I think it would be beneficial if they gave a precise location to meet.

Had to make our way to meet tour group, but lovely on an air-conditioned bus and drinking water provided. Great tour guide. Very informative, especially as we'd arrived in the city late the previous evening. It gave us a good overview of the city and where to go back and explore at our leisure.

Tour covered the highlights of Singapore and our tour guide provided onfo thr history and background of the country.

Whole trip was well organised. Pick up from hotel was on time and bus was cool .. friendly driver . Monica the guide was a wealth of information and made it fun . Was a great introduction to the main highlights of Singapore . Big shout out to the bus drivers who were excellent .

Interesting guide. Hard to hear at times because of large group and outside noises. Give you a bottle of water

Excellent trip to see the main parts of the city. Informative guide, pick up in time. Great value for money.
