We booked at short notice after arriving in Singapore and had the pleasure of Ken’s company for a delightful four hour tour. We saw all the highlights we wanted to see, got our bearings so that we can re-visit some spots and found the the insight of Ken’s knowledge very helpful. Ken’s passion and professionalism for his country and its people is to be admired. He is a wonderful tour guide!

Simon from MY Singapore Holiday took us on a 4 hour private customised city tour. He was friendly, knowledgeable and professional and we would happily recommend him.
Great trip to some of Singapore’s different cultural areas. Our driver was very prompt, knowledgeable and friendly. Recommended!
Our guide Simon was excellent! He was personable and knowledgeable. He picked us up promptly and helped us download our tickets. We visited the Marina Bay Sands observation deck and the National Orchid Garden which was spectacular. We had some extra time and chose to take the sky cars that were going directly over our ship! Simon dropped us off and picked us up promptly from each activity and knew his way around the city very well. I would choose this tour again in a heartbeat!
We really enjoyed the four-hour tour with Ken. He showed us various points of interest. In addition, we were able to express our preferences at any time and set the schedule. We would recommend this tour to anyone looking to get an overview of Singapore.
Contact was made to let me know the driver would be on time to pick me up. We had an opportunity to add or delete from the itinerary. Tour guide was great
CK was great! He took the best pictures ever and made sure that we enjoyed the whole tour. Took us to the most valuable spots. 100% recommended.
The perfect amount for us to Singapore. We saw all the best highlights in 4 hours since we had already visited Gardens By The Bay the night before. Jameel was out guide. Very friendly and efficient showing us around the city. The van was adequate but we have had nicer vehicles with colder air conditioning. Overall great value for the money.
Q was outstanding. Very knowledgeable and so flexible with the itinerary per our interest. We had a fabulous time. SUV was very roomy and comfortable. Nothing but praise for the entire experience.
Kenneth was an amazing tour guide, he was so knowledgeable and helped us to order an amazing lunch in Chinatown. We had a fabulous time.
Alvin was knowledgeable and friendly. One of us had a difficult time understanding his accent through no fault of the guise. He took us where we asked to go and offered insight into all the changes that have occurred over the years since our last visit to Singapore.
Thomas was amazing. Careful driver, diligent historian. We learned so much about Singapore in our short time!
Incredible experience, worth every penny. Makes the experience much more interesting. Learned about history and culture of Singapore. Highly recommend hiring the professional tour guide.
I hired a private driver via Tripadvisor. His name is Simon and he was excellent. He was on time and we changed things on our tour to suit my needs. He was very knowledgeable about the country and provided me with practical advice. I think hiring a private car is the most efficient way to see a country although it’s more expensive. The car was very clean and spacious, and he provided us with water. I would highly recommend the service. We did the four hour tour.
I made this booking at 5am in the morning, for an 11am pickup from my hotel. The company messaged me via WhatsApp to provide a sample itinerary, and the driver, Azman messaged me as well to advise pick up location at my hotel, and what car he would be in, absolutely champion fellow, took me to several sights and gave solid insights into Singapore, as well as dropping me at locations with 30 minutes to explore each location, including a trip on the cable car (added expense) where he met me at the destination point, then dropped me back to my departure terminal at airport. Highly recommend this company!
Had a wonderful time, during our 4-hour Singapore tour. Our driver, Simon, catered some of the stops to our preference and made our experience seamless. The only complain I have is that we did not book more time with him! 😆 A+
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful Private Tour! I Wish I Had Booked Six Hours! I had a fantastic private tour of Singapore with Calvin as my guide and Lynn as my driver. I was by myself so I appreciated how Calvin took me to interesting places and experiences I would never have discovered independently, beyond the typical tourist sights. He explained the history, culture and fun facts about Singapore that I would not have known about. His knowledge and friendly personality made the tour enjoyable, while Lynn made getting around easy and comfortable. My only regret is booking four hours instead of six. The time flew by, and I would have happily continued. I highly recommend this tour, especially for solo travelers. If you’re choosing between four and six hours, book the six! Thank you, Calvin and Lynn for a wonderful day in Singapore!
Guide was very informative and wonderful. Highly recommend.
This was a great tour. I chose my itinerary but they can do it for you Be aware in Singapore your driver cannot get out to guide you. I added a guide to my tour. Lynn was amazing. Very knowledgeable and interesting She also helped take great pictures
Q was brilliant! Fantastic 4 hours. Covered everything I wanted and great fun as well!
Both Patrick and CK were amazing! Their catered to my all my needs and requests, and provided the best information on this tour. I would highly recommend! Many thanks
What an amazing experience. Daud was an amazing host and drove round the sights and sounds Singapore. Very knowledgeable and generous with his time. A brilliant experience I’d 100% recommend to all.
We did a private tour yesterday and had a wonderful experience. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible with the itinerary. He was also very understanding and accommodating, allowing my elderly parents to remain in the car whenever they preferred instead of getting out at every stop. That thoughtfulness made the tour much more comfortable and enjoyable for our family. Everything was well organized, and we never felt rushed. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a personalized and stress-free experience.
Simon kept us up to date with times & meeting point. Although it was heavy rain & thunder he did his best to show us around Singapore. His knowledge was very good and he was considerate to our needs. Would definitely recommend.
Lynn was excellent! She took us to exactly where we wanted to go, incluxing the Sentosa Golf Club. She gave us a brief background on everything. She was knowledgeable and pleasant. Best time spent!
Qamarul made the experience worthwhile for us. He was punctual and really friendly. Would definitely recommend and use him whenever I find myself in Singapore again
Had a great experience with Qamarul. He was punctual, the whole tour was amazing. He went above and beyond. If you’re in Singapore and need someone reliable, he’s your guy. Would 100% use again.
Fantastic outing with Mr Kenneth. He was fun, high energy, knowledgeable and always in communication to make sure that you have a great time. We were able to cover so much ground in such a short time. Highly recommend!
Thomas our driver was fantastic. His knowledge of Singapore was incredible Especially the history We saw so many places and experienced the different cultures of Singapore. I can highly recommend to request Thomas
Our first time to the city, this tour provided us with great orientation to make the most out of our 3 day stay. We were allowed to explore different sites on our own pace and the guide would pick us up on a minute request. The guide explained everything during the drive between the sites.
Fantastic tour of Singapore. We have visited before and enjoyed the typical tourist sites. This time we saw so much more! Ken shared the beautiful culture and neighborhoods of the city area. He went above and beyond! Highly recommend!!
Our guide was difficult to understand and spent a lot of time on his phone coordinating other drivers
Fantastic tour, guide not only drove with us but walked with us to experience the various sites. He also organised tickets for us as we went so that we did not have to queue. We were able to pack a lot into the short time and would thoroughly recommend.
Excellent experience with our driver/guide Vincent. He took us all around the city talking about all the history and noteable landmarks. He took us to sites he recommended, dropping us off and picking us up exactly on time. It was a wonderful experience and we would highly recommend them to anyone.
Ramli was simply terrific. He took great care to make sure we were comfortable and understood everything we were experiencing. Great job.
Outstanding driver who knew his history and was born here. Spoke excellent English, great personality and went above and beyond to help us make our reservation for massage and locate soccer store. He hit all key points and did whatever we needed to be done!
We had a knowledgeable guide and a driver in one person: Qamarul. Managed to see some of the key highlights including Gardens by the Bay, Received good historical information from Qamarul, who was courteous and helpful.
My mom (74 yrs old) and I took this tour with Mr. Thomas, we had a blast. He was very friendly, patient and knowledgeable. He took us to local spots to try desserts and took many pictures for us. We had a great time with Thomas. 100% recommend.
Our overview tour of Singapore was at our pace. The driver, Rami, was very focused on our interests, very patient, very informative. We were lucky enough to tour on a Sunday traffic was very light. Rami was quick to suggest where to get out for photos ops. Having a private car and driver really allows for an enjoyable experience and to get the very most out of limited time.
The pick-up at our hotel was timely and our driver was friendly and knowledgeable. He suggested places to go and allowed us to select our choices. We went to the Botanical Gardens which I would highly recommend, temples, saw the different areas and received a good overview of the city. Since we had just arrived the day before, this was helpful. He recommended a hawker center which we returned to for dinner later that night- wonderful. This is a great overview of the city.
We had a 4-hour city tour with Mr. Qamarul, and it was a great experience. He was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about the city. The trip was smooth, comfortable, and well organized. Highly recommend him as a driver for anyone visiting!
I was a little, unsure how this would go traveling by myself as a solo female, but Kenneth, the driver was really great, and it was a great intro to the beautiful city of Singapore, I am looking forward to going back to be able to spend more time there. It was tailor-made and I was dropped off different places to explore on my own with a ride and a friend waiting to pick me up, just a great option, and I felt very safe and well taken care of.
Edward’s knowledge was outstanding and the pace was just right
DO NOT BOOK this if you’re looking for a guided tour! We booked at last minute for 4 of us expecting guided tour of Singapore highlights for $340 SGD. Confirmation message came through that night for next day and small print said “driver only, tour guide $60 SGD per hour extra, tried to cancel and was told “ Hi Sir, please rest assured that our drivers are experienced and knowledgeable enough to share basic information on the Singapore history, culture, policies and the way of life here.” so we went ahead and while our driver was very nice he had no knowledge of any of the sights or history (or even where any of the public toilets were!) and proceeded to to drop us off at various locations and left us to wander around to pick us up 30 or 60mins later. BASICALLY A VERY EXPENSIVE TAXI SERVICE……
This was such a well rounded and informational tour. Our Guide Edward was very knowledgeable, flexible, organized, warm/friendly and a pleasure to have as our tour guide. With our feedback, Edward carefully curated the sites and routes for key places of interest. He allowed us ample time to walk around in each location, provided water, asked if a lunch break was needed. He was very communicative during the tour keeping in touch via WhatsApp while we were exploring each location on our own. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone that's stretched for time and want to have a quick lay of the land and see key highlights so you don't waste time trying to find on your own or spend hours on the hop on/off bus tours. Our transportation was new and very well air conditioned which is a MUST in Singapore! Thank you for the excellent service provided!
Doud was absolutely outstanding. It's obvious that he has a lot of knowledge and pride in Singapore, and that he wanted us to experience the best, that we might feel how he does. He was courteous, thoughtful, and pointed out things that we would have wanted to know, had we known they were there! This really was custom experience, and I recommend it - and Doud - to anyone.
We booked a tour with My Singapore Holiday and Thomas was our guide. He was very outgoing and very knowledgeable about Singapore. It was a private 4 hour tour with him. It was a wonderful experience. His personality and knowledge of Singapore was exceptional. We enjoyed his company so much we had him transport us to the cruise port at the end of our stay. When we return to Singapore, we will make sure we arrange a tour with Thomas.
Travis was quite helpful in showing me around Singapore, including not just the usual tourist places. He has a laid back nature and sense of humour. However in regard to the booking process I feel this is a bit dishonest. I was in Singapore and the tour was for Singapore and a price was stated in $. You could only assume it was Singapore $. I was pretty annoyed to see this price was US $, adding a substantial amount more. I would not have done this if I had known the real price.
The tour was exactly what we were looking for. I am traveling with my 80 yr old mom who has some mobility issues. We were able to see a lot in 4 hours and she was able to get out and take pictures while I did more walking. Mohamed was extremely knowledgeable and so sweet to my mom!
We booked this tour at the last minute since we had one day available to see Singapore before leaving for a cruise. Viator was very accommodating and communicated throughout our experience. Our tour guide Kelvin and our driver were very prompt and courteous. Kelvin is very knowledgeable about the city and tailored our tour to what we wanted to see. We saw a lot of the government buildings on our way to the waterfront. He took a lot of pictures of our group and had us pose before the Merlion. Kelvin was particularly attentive to the needs of our group to go slow and rest when needed. My father, who is 93, was with us and Kelvin was incredibly conscientious helping him in and out of the van and up and down stairs. We ended in Chinatown and Kelvin gave us some great recommendations for dinner and other sites to see. Overall we felt we got a nice overview of the city and learned some interesting facts that we would otherwise have not know .
