About this activity

Explore Singapore's transformation from colonial trading post to modern metropolis on a guided 4-hour bike tour led by STB-certified guides. Cycle through heritage neighbourhoods, riverside heritage sites, and iconic landmarks while tasting authentic local street food and learning untold WWII stories.

Why go on a bike tour with us?

We are a licensed travel agency by the Singapore Tourism Board. We have insurance cover and use only licensed guides! Our tours have been curated as 'Passion Tours' by the Tourism Board; the best in Singapore!

Discover the REAL Singapore on our Historical Singapore route. Visit a residential town, eat like a Singaporean; sample local snacks and drinks at a ‘coffeeshop’.

We meander alongside the Singapore River – where trade brought life to the sleepy village town in the 1800s. See historically important landmarks, such as a 100-year old fire station, museums, and places of worship.

Learn how the 2nd World War affected Singapore and see monuments in honor of the many who suffered.

Fast forward to the present and be awed by the ultra-modern business district. Be right in the action as we cycle right along part of the Formula 1 route (sorry the bikes can’t go 300km/h though).

Highlights

  • Ride alongside Singapore River—the historic artery that fuelled 19th-century trade
  • Stop at a traditional coffeeshop to eat like a local and sample regional snacks
  • Visit century-old fire station, war monuments, and active places of worship
  • Explore residential HDB towns away from tourist crowds
  • Cycle sections of the Formula 1 Marina Bay circuit
  • See colonial-era landmarks and ultra-modern skyline contrasts

Insider tips

  • Go early morning (6:30–8:30 AM start) to beat heat, traffic, and catch locals at coffeeshops during peak breakfast hours
  • Wear moisture-wicking clothes and bring a small backpack; the pace is leisurely but humidity is intense year-round
  • Ask your guide about WWII stories in advance if specific histories interest you—guides often have deeper knowledge beyond the standard narrative

Good to know

  • Licensed STB guides and insured operation; bike and helmet included
  • Flat terrain, suitable for moderate fitness; no mountain biking experience needed despite category tag
  • Pace includes food stops; allow 20–30 minutes at coffeeshop
  • Bring sunscreen, water bottle, and small cash for optional purchases at food stops
  • Bikes are single-speed or fixed-gear; confirm bike type and fit at briefing

Who it's for
