This morning we disembarked from the wonderful Ovation of the Seas with lots of E-Cruising passengers to go on a City Tour that our Cruise Company E-Cruising had organised for us at short notice as our Hotel would not be ready until the afternoon. What a fabulous City Tour this was and we were very happy to be offered this option at no cost. Views of the city and its buildings were spectacular and we were keen to see whats next.

Our tour guide was very interesting and soon we stopped at Little India for a walk around the shops and then a talk about cultures and history of Singapore. People were very friendly and we were happy to stand in a small Museum or shop that had lots of lovely historical photos on the wall. Excellent visit and then we were off again.

Then it was time to go and see Merlion in Marina Bay environs. With a backdrop of the Marina Bay Hotel and the famous Fullerton Hotel. There is the ArtScience Museum on the foreshore as well. This was built as a symbol of a welcoming hand of Singapore. This area is very popular for all to visit and enjoy.

Next stop was to visit a Temple and we walked through noted the peacefulness and tranquility of the place. Then it was time to board our coach and drive to the Jen Tanglin Hotel at the top of Orchard Road. Beautiful hotel with a fabulous foyer and great facilities. After checking in we left to go back to Marina Bay and spend the evening at The Gardens By the Bay to watch the light Show when it was dark enough.
