ABOUT AGP: AGP is set up as an alternative option for good quality outdoor products, but at reasonably moderate prices. There're over 50 different brands of different products and there's probably the widest range of cold weather performance apparels in Singapore.
More than having good products at moderate prices, the staff is known for the great advice & tips they give to clients in their buying decisions so that they only buy what they need, not what they want to sell.
The big news is that we have ceased operations in the direct arrangement of overseas trips. We'll be taking a more laid-back approach and focus now on adventure travel consultancy services.
With 10 years of adventure trip organizing & management, and with limited time and manpower, now we seek higher grounds in consultancy work. An outdoor adventure trip is unlike a city sightseeing tour and you can't just sign up with the typical travel agent who know nuts about the outdoors. Being practitioners of our trade, we understand how unforgiving the elements could be and having 'being there' previously, we are in a good position to advise & prepare our members well for what's ahead ... be it the sights, local culture, terrain, food, accommodation, climate (extreme cold), or altitude (thin air).
Our unique consultancy services are tailor-made to fit in your unique needs, interests, experience, and fitness. Basically we will assist you in planning & getting ready for the adventure of your lifetime in the following areas:
customisation of adventure itineraries advice on pre-trip progressive training/conditioning programs advice on travel gear and outdoor personal care advice on high altitude travel care & well-being
To be specific, we no longer provide the following travel agent services:
booking & arrangement of air tickets booking & arrangement of any transport services
Do email us for more details with regards to your adventure travel plans. We'll be happy to work with you in coming up with a customised adventure travel program tailor-made just for you.

TAKE A WALK IV
Raleigh Society is organizing its fourth 'Take A Walk' - an overnight 28-hour, 100km fund-raising walk - from 20-21th December 2008 in a bid to raise $80,000. Half of this amount will benefit the Movement for Intellectually Disabled of Singapore (MINDS) while the other half will be used to fund Raleigh Society's international expedition in 2009. As in previous walks, there are 3 distances: 10km, 50km and 100km.
