Description of Programme
Guided Walking Tour
Apart from an intriguing storyline for each tour, our guides deliver content through the use of visual aids such as photos, videos and maps. Participants will be engaged in two-way interaction with our guides through quizzes and experiential activities (e.g. hands-on cultural activities, food sampling) to reinforce their understanding and learning of NE messages.
Marina Bay
How does Singapore continue to stand out on the global stage? For a nation-state with no natural resources, people are our strength and our wealth. With people, we are able to build iconic structures that the world can marvel at.
This tour will explore the challenges faced when building the three Man-Made wonders of Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and Marina Barrage. Discover the innovative solutions that were found, as we managed land use, environmental sustainability and financial viability. Let’s marvel again at them and deepen our appreciation as we learn more about the process.

Marina Bay Sands / Art Science Museum / Dragonfly Lake / Heritage Gardens / Supertree Grove
