Excellent tour - Helena was most knowledgable on the subject. Well paced.
Excellent and interesting tour !! ,Carol was an expert guide even went well out of her way to meet us at Little India MRT!, .We had lived in Singapore 10 years ago for a year and only ever went to Changi so this tour was great to hear about the significance of the sites of Mt Faber and Labrador Nature Reserve ,we also went to the Kranji War Memorial and it was very moving for me when we had a minutes silence that I had a lady next to me crying that had come to see a relative's resting place.
The guide had exceptional knowledge and was able to answer all questions. She was happy and obliging. We weren't rushed and were given all the time we needed. The Kranji War cemetary was very moving, and is a must see for those visiting Singapore.
The tour was most informative and educational under the leadership of our guide. He was a wealth of information and very entertaining as we were taken through the various stages of the invasion of Singapore and final surrender. This tour included a visit to Kranji cemetery, the final resting place of many of the people that did not survive the occupation of the island. The information we received also cleared up many myths surrounding the invasion and final surrender. We would recommend this experience to anyone that has an interest in the history of the second world war and the fall of Singapore.
Only let down here was despite there being a microphone on the bus, the guide chose to talk to the group without it - so pack a hearing aid! The noise of the bus outweighed her efforts. The commentary was lost on a majority of people for this reason. Very informative otherwise. Intense amount of info from passionate guide. Moving experience.
Learnt a lot on this tour. Well worth the money.
My husband and I went on the Singapore 1942 Battlefield Afternoon Tour.The guide, Hemlata, was very knowledgeable and friendly. We believe the information provided on the tour would keep the interest of a broad range of people. The price of the tour was very good value for money - we definitely recommend people visiting Singapore to go on this tour.
This was extremely interesting. I can't believe what this small nation has had to put up with during its short history.
Our tour guide was very well informed and we had a really good afternoon with her, well worth the money.
Great information. Guide was really informative.
Thought it included the Battle Box but did not - quite good anyway.
The guide was too passionate with her knowledge and did not leave enough time at the cemetery for people to get a sense of the war graves. Glad to finish with the guide so that we could have some quiet time and reflect on what we had seen.
