10 Things to do in Orchard That You Shouldn't Miss
The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

This is a gem located at ION Orchard. The collection of whisky is made possible by a wealthy hobbyist and his passion for whisky. It must costs him a small fortune to set up and maintain his collection. For sure he is not making money from retailing but possibly through appreciation of his collection. As my wife doesn’t drink much, we opted for the $79 tour for her and the $199 for myself. At the end of the tour we sampled 2sets of 3 whisky. We were guide through the tasting very professionally. It was amazing how a drop of water to the whisky could have a profound change on the palate. Even my wife who is not a drinker found the experience very Worth the money spent. The tour on the collection was conducted very professionally by our guide, Kavila, a Nepalese turned Singaporean. It was truly educational as Kavila is very knowledgeable and articulate.
