What to Expect?
Singapore may be known as a bustling modern city, but hidden beneath its skyline lies a rich tapestry of history, resilience, and island legends.
In Southern Voyagers, children step into the shoes of young adventurers tasked to rediscover our nation’s roots – through immersive storytelling, team missions, and hands-on outdoor play across Sentosa, St John’s, and Kusu Island.
Through three unforgettable days, they will unearth wartime secrets, relive the nation’s independence, and reignite the kampong spirit – all while solving challenges, building forts, creating floating towns, and cooking as a team.
It’s history brought to life – Singapore-style.
