Description of Tour
Travel back to the 14th century to unravel the mystery surrounding the tomb of Singapore’s last ancient king. Trace the origins of famous figures from our misty past and be amazed at their incredible feats of power. Learn about secret tunnels (did they or did they not connect to an island?); and uncover the myths surrounding the Second World War. Get the inside scoop on how Christmas was Singapore’s and whether this was a case of dispossession or purely misconception. Stand tall (very tall) and hear even taller tales about a tranquil island that hides a terrifying past. Come on this tour and brace yourself as we bring these tall tales down to size. Our historic legends, myths and scandalous secrets will never be the same again.
