NASSIM ROAD WALKING TOUR
Thurs, 1st Jan 2026 | 9am to 11.30am
Start the new year on an auspicious note with a leisurely walk through one of Singapore’s most exclusive neighbourhoods. Nassim Road is not just any address – it is the pinnacle of prestige, lined with Good Class Bungalows (GCBs) worth tens of millions.
Even the “humblest” condominium unit here carries a price tag that makes headlines. This is where wealth, ambition, and aspiration meet.
On this special New Year’s Day tour, we take you behind the manicured hedges and into the story of how this extraordinary enclave came to be. As we stroll beneath leafy canopies and quiet lanes, we will explore how Singapore’s real estate landscape has transformed in just a few decades.
Using the properties along the 3xx stretch of Nassim Road as our case study, we will trace how land, legacy, and opportunity shaped this remarkable district.
Expect gentle walking, light storytelling, and plenty of time to enjoy the surroundings. And somewhere along the way, you may find yourself pondering an unexpected question: Would you rather be super rich, quietly comfortable, or simply rich but not famous? After all, with great wealth often comes great visibility – and Nassim Road is living proof.
Some homes here are so admired that passers-by cannot resist peeking at their towering gates, expansive gardens, or the quiet forest-like roads that shield them from the world.
We begin at Orchard Rendezvous Hotel (formerly Orchard Parade Hotel, and before that, Ming Court Hotel) at 1 Tanglin Road, where the bustle of Orchard meets the calm of Nassim.
Our walk ends at the Singapore Botanic Gardens, just in time for an early lunch or a peaceful post-tour stroll.
Join us for a relaxed, eye-opening morning as we uncover the stories behind Singapore’s most coveted address.
