A Walking Tour Singapore

Hand-drawn guide to Singapore's secret treasures.

This book feels like a personal journey through Singapore's less-trodden paths. It's ideal if you're the kind of person who enjoys mixing travel with the intimacy of a sketchbook. With Gregory Byrne Bracken's unique illustrations and narratives, you get a sensory-rich experience that's both informative and visually appealing. It's a treasure hunt on paper, perfect for armchair travelers and adventurers alike.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
