Of Dali, Barley and Hadhramis™
An Eccentric Clarke Quay Pub Walk


“Terima kasih banyak, thank you VERY much for the opportunity to enjoy this walk!! A VERY personable and knowledgeable guide; keep her!”
– David and Yvette Bird, Indonesia
 
Tour Synopsis
The wizened storyteller lit his last joss-stick as the coolies waited with bated breath. The end was drawing near. You can almost see the ghosts of the old river behind the surreal, glitzy façade of Clarke Quay. Go deep into the trendiest stretch in town.  Who was the ‘unqualified’ architect responsible for all early colonial buildings? Or the shrewd diplomat-tycoon who eyed profits from ice but was just ahead of his time. Hear about the ‘tin rush’ that was as mad as the one for gold. And the sad story of the guardian who lost his world to the cruel tides of change. Swig this and more at trendy breweries where ‘mash’ is anything but the humble potato.
