Mount Faber, Henderson Waves e Southern Ridges Tour
Descrição
Você é alguém que gosta de natureza e caminhadas? Se assim for, vamos descobrir Southern Ridges, uma série de colinas e parques que conectam Kent Ridge Park, Hort Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Mount Faber Park e Labrador Nature Reserve. Durante esta excursão, caminharemos até Henderson Waves, uma ponte de pedestres que atravessa um vale profundo 36 metros abaixo. Em seguida, seguiremos para Faber Point, o ponto mais alto do Mount Faber Park. A partir das áreas de observação, teremos uma vista panorâmica da cidade, da região sul de Cingapura e das ilhas do sul. Aprenda também sobre a vida cotidiana de um cingapuriano médio e o desenvolvimento das indústrias marítima e habitacional de Cingapura. Esta caminhada leva você através de uma floresta secundária com uma grande variedade de flora e fauna. Enquanto caminhamos pelas copas das árvores, fique atento à cobra oriental que se aquece nos galhos, ao canto da cigarra ou ao canto do bulbul com cabeça de palha. Esta viagem é definitivamente um paraíso para os amantes da natureza!

Atravesse em uma ponte elevada que corta a adinandra belukar, um tipo distinto de floresta secundária onde a floresta se regenera após exploração agrícola exaustiva. Fique atento à rica flora e fauna, como o bulbul de cabeça de palha, o formigueiro tecelão ou a cobra-chicote oriental, entre as copas das árvores. Também compartilharei com vocês os tipos de vida selvagem que podem ser encontrados em Cingapura.
O Terrace Garden é composto por uma série de terraços semicirculares situados no topo do Telok Blangah Hill. A partir daqui, você poderá desfrutar de uma vista de 360 graus de tirar o fôlego de Cingapura. Se você tiver sorte, poderemos ver um mar de buganvílias rosa florescendo.
A Henderson Waves é uma ponte para pedestres que se estende por um vale profundo 36 metros abaixo. O design exclusivo em forma de onda das Henderson Waves cria uma visão incomum e um famoso local para fotos.
Faber Point é o ponto mais alto do Monte Faber. Dos mirantes aqui, teremos uma vista panorâmica da cidade, da parte sul de Cingapura e das ilhas do sul. Se o tempo estiver bom, poderemos ver o Marina Bay Sands de longe! A partir desses pontos de observação, também compartilharei sobre a vida do cidadão médio de Cingapura, o desenvolvimento da habitação de Cingapura e a importância da indústria marítima para Cingapura.

Was an amazing tour, our tour guide was Keith and he was very friendly and very patient. Always waited for us to catch up when we were going up the stairs. He was also very informative about plants and trees we passed. Absolutely recommend anyone taking this tour with Keith! He is the best!!,
Fantastic morning to hike the Southern Ridges! Keith was happy to spot the common hill mynah and thanks to Jill, the bronzeback snake. Peter and Jill are a lovely jovial couple. Enjoy your stay in Singapore :)
Keith our guide was very informative and helpful. He ensured we were happy with the pace and we had a few rest stops. We learnt about lots of seeds and products
Fine day for a walk in the Southern Ridges. Keith was happy to spot not one, but two of our native green crested lizard together with you! And also the greater racket-tailed drongo. Julie and Paul are polite and happy to share their stories. Take care and safe flight home :)
Keith was a fabulous guide - very passionate and, as a Singapore local, very happy to share his knowledge of local life and culture, as well as the plant life we saw along the way. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone keen to see the green and largely unseen part of Singapore that lies so close to the centre. A reasonable degree of fitness is a prerequisite. While Keith takes plenty of time to stop and explain things along the way, getting up Mt Faber takes some energy!
Fantastic weather for a walk in the southern ridges! Keith enjoyed sharing about the local flora and fauna, and the 'toothpick' story on one of the palm tree. Wendy and Martin were polite and friendly guests! Take care and hope to see you again :)
This is a very well organised trip and Keith, our guide, provided very professional and clear communication via Whats App prior to the event, even adjusting the start from 8:30am to 9:30 am to accommodate our request due to our jetlag. The starting point at Hort Park office is easily reached by taxi for a reasonable price. On the morning of our walk the heavens opened and it started to rain heavily but this did not dampen our experience as Keith was really enthusiastic and professional and talked to us about a whole range of life, history and culture in Singapore. The walk itself is easy but there are some steep bits and some steps to navigate so should be borne in mind by those with mobility needs. The walk enabled us to see the nature that surrounds the city and when we reached the top of Mount Faber this afforded us with a brilliant view. Fortunately the rain had stopped at this point so we could see for miles. Keith was really entertaining and had a great sense of humour. He speaks really good English and was also very interested in what's happening around the world so we enjoyed good overall conversation as well as learning lots about the Singaporean way of life. Along the way he invited us to taste local produce from the area, including the notorious Durian fruit which has a very specific smell and taste and is not for the faint hearted! The end of the walk is located at the Mount Faber cable car station and I had booked a separate ticket for the cable car in order to combine the end of the walk with a trip over to Sentosa Island. I would recommend this combination to make a full day. Keith showed us the entrance to the station which was very kind. Thankyou Keith for being a great guide. A perfect way to amble away a rainy Sunday morning in Singapore.
A wet morning hike and glad you survived it, Julia & Paul! The intermittent rain was not part of the package but provided Keith the chance to share with you other topics on Singapore! He had fun learning of Lake District (pretty photos) from you as well. Take care and hope to see you again :)
Keith our local guide walked us through Hort Park , Henderson Wave Bridge and Mt Faber look out at a comfortable scenic pace. Keith was able to inform and answer our questions regarding the trees and plant growth, history of the area and knew where to take some lovely memorable photos along our walk. Not to mention a great local coffee cafe at the end of our tour that made a perfect latte coffee. Thank you. 5/5
Glad you enjoyed the walk amid the greenery, Daniela & Domenic! Keith enjoyed the session with you, especially the topic on the rooftop garden. Do visit us again next time! Take care.
