A Walk Through Time Around Tanjong Pagar

A Walk Through Time Around Tanjong Pagar

Immerse yourself in the untold stories of the once notorious Tanjong Pagar. Guided by ex-gang members, explore the hidden alleys of Chinatown over a 2-hour walk, replete with stories on opium dens and firsthand accounts of life in the underground, making this the best #AMA session ever.

Hands-On Culinary Experience

Come experience Singapore's culinary legacy firsthand with our Popiah Making and Local Coffee/Tea Classes at Café Oriental. In a laid-back, conversational setting, learn the intricacies of rolling traditional popiah and making Singapore’s quintessential local beverages. Great for foodies, there’s nothing quite like getting to know a nation through its flavours.

The Intan Peranakan House Heritage Tour

The Peranakans are a culturally unique group in Southeast Asia, descended from Chinese immigrants who intermarried with local populations, blending Chinese and Malay influences in their rich traditions, cuisine, and art. At this particular home museum, you will engage with Alvin Yapp, the museum's passionate curator, as he walks you through the museum's extensive collection, including the lavish Peranakan wedding ceremonies.
