Could not have been better. Raffles was everything I hoped it would be. Beautiful tea, don't do this tour without booking high tea. The boat ride was great too. This is a MUST DO trip.

Great tour guide. Tea at Raffles was great, lovely selection on the buffet. Bumboat trip a great way to see the mix of buildings in Singapore old, new, Chinese and colonial.

Unfortunately, your outline of the tour failed to inform participants of the need for gentlemen to wear trousers and shoes and socks. This caused some embarrassment!

We were given plenty of time to explore Raffles and have our tea. This was very enjoyable.

This was worth doing, and I liked having afternoon tea.

Overall, tour was good. However, we had booked for high tea, but on arrival at the collection point, we were told that we would be unable to do this because of our dress. On our voucher, it stated smart but casual and we had smart cropped trousers and sandals on, but if you are going to the Tiffin Room you need to wear full length trousers and shoes! A little disappointing that we were led to believe otherwise. It happened to another lady in our group, but she had time to go back and change. So she changed into her jeans and trainers as these were the only long trousers and the only shoes she had with her - doesn't make sense to me!!

Excellent tour. A must for everyone.

Definitely worth doing as Raffles is a must-visit location in Singapore. Extra items in the tour such as a pewter factory visit and boat ride add value to this.

Very good if you have an interest in the development of Singapore. Visit to Raffles provided very good 'high tea' with excellent food. Tour guide very good.

Learnt a lot about Singapore's history on this and certainly didn't want to eat again that day following afternoon tea at Raffles!

Really enjoyed the trip; the afternoon tea at Raffles was well worth it--good food and great authentic atmosphere. Very pleasant river trip and condensed history of Singapore; the guide not entirely correct in his facts when answering questions from tour guests, but good commentary as long as you don't question anything.

Picked up on time but waited an hour at the departure point before leaving on the tour. Raffles high tea was definitely worth doing and the bumboat ride. The museum is very small and a large group has trouble hearing and seeing what the guide is talking about.
