Flavors of Bugis: Exploring Heritage

See a different side of Singapore through its flavors and stories with Flavors of Bugis: Exploring Heritage and Kueh Crafting. This 3.5-hour walking tour brings together a hands-on kueh workshop and a guided walk through one of the city’s most colorful areas.

After the class, explore the Bras Basah and Bugis neighborhoods with your guide. Walk past colonial buildings, shophouses, murals, and markets that show how the area has grown from a trading quarter into a lively cultural district
