Useful Information
Trishaw Ride through the Streets of Chinatown
The four-hour evening tour of Singapore's Chinatown offers rare insights into Chinese history in Singapore. You'll visit the Yong Galley, the fine art of calligraphy is demonstrated by the Master Calligrapher who will convert your name into auspicious Chinese characters on a red fan which is yours to keep as a souvenir. You'll also have the opportunity to wander along Chinatown's narrow lanes at the Night Market and test your bargaining skills with street vendors selling souvenirs, fashion, leather goods and much more.
The highlight of the Singapore Chinatown evening tour is your trip through Chinatown's exuberant Night Market by trishaw. You'll thread your way through the market's hustle and bustle by the chauffeured limousine of times gone by, traveling through Chinatown to Clarke Quay. Here you'll take a cruise along the Singapore River in a bumboat, the traditional cargo boats once used to ferry goods up and down the river. You'll see Singapore lit up at night, highlighting the beautifully restored shop houses, the modern skyscrapers of the financial district, colonial buildings and the iconic Merlion statue. The cruise disembarks at the Esplanade Theatre by the Bay venue on the waterfront.

This was a highlight of my Singapore trip. Tour guide had a great sense of humour. The meal was delicious, Trishaw drivers were full of information (be aware that you need to tip them at least $4), the boat ride highlighted the main attractions of the Marina. I also opted to stay in Clarke Quay for the nightlife instead of back to the hotel.

Lots of fun. Plenty of time to look around Chinatown. Tri-shaw ride in the middle of traffic was a blast.
