Singapore |
No-one can fail to be impressed by the modern buildings in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, but behind this modernity can still be found pockets of all the peoples who have a home in this cultural melting pot in South East Asia. |
Singapore's 'Little India', 'Arab Street' and the famous Chinatown are evidence of this, together with the 'Quays' on the banks of the Singapore River,
where the old Chinese trader's 'shop houses' (shop on the ground floor and living accommodation above) have been preserved.
The local Malay, as well as Chinese, Indian, Arabic and Western cultures all mix together in an amazingly well ordered symmetry. All racial groups and their respective cultures live comfortably side by side, and this is evidenced by the huge range of restaurants and places of worship which can be seen everywhere. |
Add to this... terrific beaches and off-shore islands; hotels of the highest standards; the ability to eat and drink wherever you choose and be sure of the highest standards of hygiene; never having to worry about your own personal safety... and the chance to shop in huge air-conditioned shopping malls, at prices which Westerners find hard to believe, and you have two destinations which are hard to beat! |
Other companies concentrate their holidays around beaches, but with so much more to see and do, we are happy to 'tailor make' a tour to enable you to see more of both Singapore and peninsular Malaysia. Just give us a ring to chat through your holiday plans |
The island state of Singapore and its larger neighbour Malaysia, are two of the most interesting and fascinating countries of the region. |
