Day 1 - Arrive Singapore
At the tip of the Malay Peninsula, Singapore is a dynamic, multi-cultural, tropical paradise where Eastern and Western traditions blend harmoniously.

Join your own private guide this morning and explore the city's rich historic legacy and the energetic multi-cultural pace of life today. Begin with a drive through Little India, filled with colorful shophouses, and continue past Parliament, Supreme Court, and City Hall - impressive reminders of Singapore's Colonial heritage. Then ascend Mt. Faber for a bird's eye view of the city and stop at the National Orchid Garden in Singapore’s famed Botanic Garden.

Known as Faifo to early western traders, it was one of Southeast Asia's major international ports during the 17th to 19th centuries, home to Japanese, Indian, Chinese and Portuguese merchants.
