Meeting Point
Hort Park
Forest Walk
Traverse on an elevated bridge that cuts through the adinandra belukar, a distinct type of secondary forest where the forest regenerates after exhaustive agriculture exploitation. Look out for the rich flora and fauna, such as the straw headed bulbul, the weaver ant nest or the oriental whip snake, among the tree canopy. I will also share with you the types of wildlife that can be found in Singapore.
Telok Blangah Hill Terrace Garden
The Terrace Garden is made up of a series of semi-circular terraces situated at the top of Telok Blangah Hill. From here, you will be able to enjoy a breath-taking 360-degree view of Singapore. If you are lucky, we might be able to see a sea of pink bougainvillea bloom.
Henderson Waves
The Henderson Waves is a pedestrian bridge that spans across a deep valley 36 metres below. The unique wave-like design of the Henderson Waves makes for an unusual sight and a famous photo spot.
Faber Point
Faber Point is the highest point on Mount Faber. From the lookout points here, we will have a panoramic view of the city, the southern part of Singapore and the southern islands. If the weather is good, we will be able to see Marina Bay Sands from afar! From these lookout points, I will also share about the life of average Singaporean, the development of Singapore’s housing and the importance of the maritime industry to Singapore.
Ending Point
Harbourfront MRT Station

About Tour Guide Keith L.
Hello I am Keith, a Singaporean born and bred. I am a part time engineer, full time traveller.
As a traveller, I like to explore places where locals go to and watch people in their everyday activities. Through conversations with the locals, I get to know of their culture, customs and way of life. I believe travel should be about people, not just places.
Looking for a local who can show you around Singapore like a friend would? Look no further. I enjoy meeting people and introducing Singapore to foreign friends, especially the non-touristy local places. I am sincere, flexible when it comes to the itinerary, and enjoys the exchange of culture with my guests.
Singapore offers a fascinating blend of Western modernity and Asian culture. Through a series of thoughtfully designed tours on culture, nature, history, architecture and food, join me to explore some of the best (secret) non-touristy local experiences in Singapore. If you have other places of interest in mind, I can customise the tour to include them.
I look forward to hearing from you soon!
