Far East Hospitality (FEH) has partnered with heritage guide The Urbanist Singapore to introduce a three-part heritage walking trail series across key city precincts. The initiative forms part of the brand’s SG60 celebrations in 2025.

The guided experiences will take guests through Orchard, the Central Business District (CBD), and Sentosa, with each trail anchored by nearby FEH properties.

The Orchard Trail (12 September 2025) will explore the district’s cultural past, from hidden pipelines to historic walkways, near Quincy Hotel Singapore, Rendezvous Hotel Singapore, and Vibe Hotel Singapore Orchard.

The CBD Trail (4 October 2025) will trace the area’s evolution from shophouses and shrines to skyscrapers and street art, with routes close to The Clan Hotel, AMOY Hotel, and Oasia Hotel Downtown.

The Sentosa Trail (8 November 2025) will highlight the island’s transformation from colonial outpost to leisure destination, featuring stories of war veterans, bunkers, and heritage homes. The walk will cover areas near The Barracks Hotel, Village Hotel Sentosa, and Oasia Resort Sentosa.

“As a Singaporean brand with over two decades of history, we’re grateful to have grown alongside the nation,” said Audrey Chung, Senior Vice President, Commercial, FEH. “We hope that this guided experience helps guests and Singaporeans connect more meaningfully with the communities around us.”

Yong from The Urbanist added: “From Orchard Road’s nutmeg beginnings to Telok Ayer’s immigrant stories and Sentosa’s military past, each unique trail is a doorway into the city’s hidden layers.”

Limited spots will be available via social media giveaways and guest sign-ups across FEH properties in Singapore.
