Highlights

Take a walk around the bustling Chinatown area from Boat Quay to learn about the history of early Singapore. In the 1800s, the coolies came and the streets were rife with problems and secret societies. Explore the clandestine side of Singapore with your friendly tour guide, who's an ex-offender and ex-gang member who will share stories as you walk along each pit stop.

After 2 hours of walking, you'll dine with your table hosts at Genius Central restaurant for a delicious, wholesome dinner and hear more stories about their personal histories, life in secret society and prison life. Have your questions answered and learn about addressing common misconceptions about ex-convicts and life behind bars.
