Meet Singapore’s talented traditional artisans in this day tour of Singapore’s disappearing trades. Get to know the old Singapore through its people and trades, still practicing their crafts and preserving traditions.

Visit a coffee roasting factory to learn about the Lion City’s traditional “kopi.” Learn traditional roasting techniques and get to sample a traditional black coffee, famously known as “kopi O.”

On to another disappearing trade, the local artisans of Singapore’s popular snacks like sachima, pig ear biscuits, and cuttlefish snacks. Listen as they tell you the techniques and history of these local snacks.

Next up is a visit to one of Singapore’s oldest remaining traditional bakeries. Listen intently to the preserved stories of the traditional baker, and get to taste a traditionally-baked bread. Taste the difference between this old-school bread versus the mass-produced ones all over the city.
