Heart of Chinatown: Our #1 Self-Guided Singapore Audio Tour
Discover the hidden stories of Singapore's Chinatown with our immersive self-guided audio tour. 🎧 Explore at your own pace!

If you're anything like us, you love to travel. Whenever we’re in a new city, we always sign up for a free walking tour. It's the best way to hear incredible stories from a local guide.
But we also value the freedom to wander and allow for serendipity - exploring at our own pace, stopping for a coffee whenever we feel like it, and not being stuck in a big group. That’s why we also enjoy self-guided audio tours.
In our recent trip to Helsinki, we visited Suomenlinna and missed the organized tour timing. Thankfully, we found out that we could buy an audio tour on our phones to learn about the history of this UNESCO site at our own pace. We had a lot of fun just wandering around the island, and it inspired us to replicate the experience.
What if we could create audio guides for places full of hidden stories in plain sight that people can explore on their own schedule? That's the idea behind WanderSG.
And our very first DIY tour at one of Singapore’s most vibrant and colourful neighbourhoods is official out!
❤️ Heart of Chinatown Audio Tour
It's a 2-hour self-guided walking adventure that runs entirely on Telegram (@WanderSG_bot). It guides you from stop to stop, sharing the lesser-known stories, hidden details, and fascinating history that bring Singapore’s Chinatown to life. We hope that visitors truly feels like a local friend is right there with you, pointing out all the cool stuff.
This audio tour will cover many notable multi-cultural sights and landmarks, each with its own hidden story:
🏛️ Marvel at the Sri Mariamman Temple & Masjid Jamae standing side-by-side in historic harmony.
🎨 Step into the Chinatown past with life-sized murals.
