We begin the tour with an introduction to the infamous Orchard Towers. From there, we trace the success story of Singapore’s Orchard Road. If truth be told, almost all of Orchard Road began life just like many other places in Singapore. Agriculture was the keyword. Most of the land was devoted to gambier and nutmeg. But that didn’t take off very well. 
Life at Orchard Road only began to change at the turn of the century. By the 1950s, Orchard Road was well on her way to a glamorous lifestyle – thanks to the colonial folks and Peranakans. Today, Orchard Road glitters. Almost all tourist guides will tell you the beautiful stories. But your ole Uncle Chris will tell you everything! 
I will tell you the full complete story - from the fairy tale beginning to the drug-laden era of the 1960s – and 70s! And beyond into the modern world of shopping and glitzy world of nightlife. Most of us love a happy ending, so we will end the tour with some beautiful stories about Orchard Road. 
This tour will end at what used to be the former car show rooms near Dhoby Ghaut (Oldham Lane).
 This was where the wealthy came to buy their horses and carriages, before the arrival of motor cars.

Best Things to Do

Amusement parks

M25***76

Universal Studios Singapore and several other Universal Studios are relatively small in size, but small and exquisite, very beautiful, and there are hello Kitty and Kuromi shops. The most fun feeling inside is mummy. The staff is good. Enter the park around 10:30 and slowly stroll around. We&#39;ll be finished by about 5pm.

Gardens by the Bay

The scenery is beautiful ~ there are many rare plants, as if you are in Alice&#39;s Wonderland ~ for a plant lover like me, it&#39;s just too much! ❤️The cloud forest next to it is also very beautiful ~ it is very spectacular when viewed from the air! 👍

You must take the first train, otherwise it will be too dark and you won&#39;t be able to see the animals clearly.
If you haven&#39;t been there, you can try it, it&#39;s quite novel.
Finally, you can watch a show at the door and then go home. It&#39;s also very convenient to take the subway.

Cable car

Take a taxi to the mountain, go directly to the luge, remember to confirm the scheduled time (I missed it, but Miss Sister changed the time), if you slide down the ticket many times and then take the cable car to slide, overall it is worth playing, the fare is not very expensive, When you slide down, the speed is very cool. It is recommended to slide down and buy a cup of coconut. After drinking, take the cable car to slide. If you leave, take the cable car to the mountain to take a taxi.

Sentosa

Natural scenery

205***26

Sentosa Island is very good, the theme park has more projects, Jurassic Park, Xiaohuangren, etc. On the island, the ecology is mainly good, there are many birds, and I have seen seagulls, peacocks and lizards. The accommodation is more expensive. The hotel does not provide breakfast. Others are OK.
