SEEING NATURE IN SINGAPORE


OTHER WALKING TOURS
The Inn Crowd has some other resourceful walking tours. You can start from their recommendations and cut out whatever you don't care to see.

OTHERS
Of course, if you want to learn more about Singapore before going, you should get onto some online forums, such as VirtualTourist and TripAdvisor. And if you're ever so lucky as I had been, you might meet someone kind enough to give you a wealth of knowledge. So my last note on Singapore is a big Thank You to my new friend Tania, who spent a lot of time answering my questions in great detail. Thanks bitbit.
