  • Is this really Singapore? Just a few steps away from the bus stop is the INCREDIBLE Nature Reserve at MacRitchie Reservoir. The 11 km hike takes you up and over the hills and rainforest slap bang in the middle of Singapore Island and it is an amazing opportunity to see wild boars, monkeys, lizards, turtles and so much more wildlife and nature. For a minute we felt like we were out of the spralling city of Singapore.

    you may only rent a close top kayak and row far out if you pass got a 1/2 star certifications after a two days courses and pass a test. Some of my friends represented the country 20 years ago at Asia level competitions and without the cert they are still subjected to the restrictions.
