Leon was a fantastic guide tailoring our tour to ensure it covered all the sites that were on our wish list. His exceptional knowledge of all the flowers, plants and trees that we saw in the Botanical Gardens and Gardens By The Bay was amazing. It was a great tour and we highly recommend this tour especially with Leon as the guide.
Outstanding Private tour. Our driver & guide, Leon, was extraordinarily knowledgeable about everything Singapore. He was able to explain history, religion , culture, architecture, botany, the government, and tell lots of stories. We have travelled all over the world and taken private tours. Leon was the best by far.
Leon was an excellent guide and we enjoyed a comprehensive overview of Singapore.There was also flexibility to see places of specific interest to us.I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who has a short time in Singapore but wishes to maximise their experience.
Our trip with Leon was the highlight of our stay. We absolutely enjoyed our tour and gave Leon the choice on what to show us with 4 hours! He did not disappoint. I can’t believe how much of the city we were able to cover. Highly recommend booking with Leon. He is incredibly kind and knowledgeable.
Leon was great as a guide! He had a broad knowledge of Singapore, its history and heritage. He was joyful and expressive throughout the tour and answered all of my family's burning questions.
Leon was great tour guide. Really knowledgeable and informative. Have us a really good overview of the city.
We had a wonderful tour with Leon as our guide. He met us at the cruise terminal where we disembarked our ship, and was flexible even though we were running about an hour late. The van was large and spacious and accommodated all four of us and our many pieces of luggage throughout the day, and had great A/C as well. Leon completely customized the tour based on our interests, which included trying Singapore’s best laksa (he took us to a small local mall we never would have found on our own). We also saw the botanic gardens, ate lunch in an air-conditioned mall, and checked out Sentosa and Resorts World. He also showed us some places that tourists never usually get to see and was so kind and informative throughout the day. We have two special needs kids who can be a challenge and he was extremely patient and even waited in the van with them when they didn’t feel like coming down at some of the stops. He also took plenty of photos of our family as well throughout the day. All in all, it was a fantastic day and we covered and saw so much more than we would have on our own. Highly recommend!
The tour was very educational. Leon was a great tour guide. The car was comfortable and we were able to stop wherever we wanted
Mr Du Leon is the best tour guide we have been with and we have cruised much of the world. He was very considerate, very knowledgeable , very easy to communicate with and very kind to both of us with our periodic mobility issues. We had some areas we wished to see in Singapore that weren’t on the suggested stops and Mr Leon did not hesitate to to show these to us. And we saw the recommendations and still finished the tour within the budgeted time. I would recommend Mr Leon to everyone. Kenn and Barb S from Canada
Leon was very patiently with all our questions Knew what he was doing and talking about Showed us places where you normally don’t come as a tourist
We ended up having some extra time in Singapore and booked this tour. Leon showed up on time and let us know where to meet him. He was very knowledgeable about Singapore and drove us around the city. He also made sure that at our drop off we were taken care of. Leon was a great tour guide.
This was the perfect tour of Singapore. Leon was a wonderful tour guide and took us to fabulous sites. He listened to our goals and desires. He was knowledgeable and a great driver. His van was clean and comfortable.
Learned all about Singapore history and culture - Kim was fantastic ! We had other tours scheduled during our stay - so she customized our tour so not to duplicate !
Worth every penny. Did a 4 hour tour with my 2 kids, 11 and 7 years old. Leon was incredible Knew all the details
Kim and Mr Weng were able to show us the amazing views and sites that Singapore has to offer. We asked them to take us to local venues so we could greet, meet local Singaporeans. The tour did not include walking through the two exhibits of Garden Bays. Since we had time at the end of our tour, they said it would be amazing to spend at least two - three hours experiencing and exploring and we did. It exceeded our expectations.
Leon is a terrific guide, very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. We told him 3 places we wanted to go. We got to do everything we requested, plus some additional things Leon suggested. We wanted to eat at a Jollibees restaurant. Leon took us to Vivo Mall so that we could try both Jollibees and Four Fingers for our lunch. We had a wonderful time with Leon today. We highly recommend him.
Leon was an amazing tour guide. He took us all around the city and tailored it to what we wanted to see. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Singapore and taught us so many things. I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you Leon!!
Our tour guide was great with communication and navigation. We really appreciated his expertise and knowledge about Singapore. He took many pictures of us throughout the tour as we left our tripod at home. Big thanks to him and we’ll be sure to tell others about the amazing job he did.
Our guide Leon was fantastic, super knowledgeable on all things Singapore. He took us all around town and showed us all the different cultures in town. He also took you any place you wanted to see that was not on his itinerary. It was a great day with him. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE!
Our guide Leon asked what we were interested in and accommodated our interests in seeing neighborhoods and temples. We had a full and fun day. Leon was very knowledgeable and friendly.
We were able to enjoy the beauty and many cultures of Singapore from a very helpful guide. Although it rained we were able to see every ethnic section of the city
Our guide Leon was PHENOMENAL! He really personalized the tour for us. He picked us up in a sparkling Mercedes sedan and created an itinerary to show us things that would be hard to get to on our own. Love that he had frozen waters for us. Amazing experience we felt very pampered.
Great way to see quick overview of Singapore! The Botanical Gardens were a must see! Our guide spoke excellent English and super friendly!
Du Leon, our guide, was exceptional! He is very knowledgeable about the history of Singapore, cultural history, as well as occupation history over the years. Even though it rained all day long, he was able to drive us by many of the important locations and sightseeing sites in Singapore. He offered for us to go inside some of the locations, but we chose to remain in the car and it worked out great. We highly recommend him as a guide and we can’t say enough about the tour.
We took the 8 hour tour of Singapore...and there wasn't a moment we weren't impressed!!! It's an absolutely amazing island! And it was bought to life by our tour guide Leon! We cannot begin to thank Leon enough! He was polite, informative, intuitive, friendly and always maintained a smile! You can see in his face that that he was genuinely happy showing us around the city in which he lives, is proud of and he calls home! He showed us and we walked around the Botanical Gardens (the best we have ever seen especially if you like Orchids), China Town, the oldest Temple in Singapore, Sentosa City, India town, Malay town, a great little area were locals eat where we had some wonderful Satay...and let's not forget the light show at the Mandarin Gardens which was truly unbelievable plus somehow he managed to get us a couple of chairs to sit on!!! I also want to mention that we rode are in a beautiful Mercedes and he always found a way to make a drop of point or a pickup place most convenient for us! So to say it another way, take the 8 hour Private tour of Singapore... request Leon as your guide...and you won't be disappointed!!!! Thanks again, Leon!!!
Very knowledgeable and experienced driver. Customized the tour to our liking. Saw many different areas.
We were on jet lag coming from Florida, USA. This trip gave us a great overview of Singapore. We saw neighborhoods, flower market, etc. A good explanation of how Singapore advanced so fast since it just became a country over 50 years ago. Great tour!
Guide Leon was awesome. Timely, kind and professional. Good communication. Saw so much. Nice local lunch. Enjoyed the day. Thank you.
OH MY GOSH! Best tour ever! Leon was amazing! Picked us up on time( early!), in a nice comfortable Mercedes, and took us to all of the highlights of Singapore. Could answer every question we had and added so many interesting pieces of knowledge. Smart, courteous, patient and sp pleasant to spend an afternoon with.
I took a tour with Leon, who is friendly, knowledgeable and organized. He took me to the normal tourist spots as well as some less well known locations. He knew his history well and was able to communicate that very well during my tour. His car was comfortable and immaculate. He also provided a cold water bottle. I would highly recommend him as a local tour guide.
Kim was our tour and Wayne was our driver and both were exceptional. Kim was very knowledgeable and thorough with all aspects of our 8-hour city tour. Wayne was a very safe driver. We enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it to see the city in one-day.
This was a wonderful experience! The driver/tour guide was very knowledgeable and flexible with us, and also incredibly kind. He knew so much about the history of the city as a third generation Singaporean, and was willing to he flexible and allow us to do what we wanted to do with enough time. Nothing felt rushed even though we got so much done in a few hours. We loved this tour, 10/10 recommend! If you are able to this tour, ask for Leon!
Hard to imagine learning more in a short period of time about a location. Leon knows more than he can share in a wonderful four hours. Singapore is an intriguing mix of cultures and activities. Time well spent!
Leon was very personable, knowledgeable and accommodating. Since our time in Singapore was limited, this was an excellent way to see the highlights.
Great way to tour the city Stopping at different sites was very informative. Having a city native really enhanced the experience.
As a returning customer, I knew the quality of the Tour would be great. Even better, we got Leon as our driver/guide again. He knows all the best places and the best/quickest ways to get in! Also, he understands that most of us are not quite ready for the humidity and brings ice-cold water at just the right moments to keep you healthy and hydrated. We will return to Singapore again - and this will be the company we use (once again)!
Wonderful tour and overview of Singapore. Leon explained the significance of each area as well as the historical background of Singapore. Would recommend to anyone who wants to get an overall tour of Singapore.
We did a private city tour with Leon and absolutely loved it. He was extremely polite, very friendly and incredibly well informed – we learned a lot, but it never felt boring or rushed. Bottled water was provided, which was a nice touch. The car was very modern, comfortable and spotlessly clean, so the whole experience felt relaxed and enjoyable. The tour itself was super well organized and we got to see all the important sights as well as some hidden gems. We would definitely recommend a tour with Leon to anyone looking for a comfortable, informative and personal way to discover the city!
Quality over quantity. Don't rush the experience to see everything. Instead, enjoy the moment and the details in the beauty of the culture. I traveled with my 83 yo mom in a wheelchair and my mother-in-law. Du Leon was amazingly patient and exceeded our expectations!
Good way to get to know your way around Singapore if it is your visit to the country. Leon was a friendly, knowledgeable and efficient tour guide.
Leon was the perfect driver and guide. He knew the city and how best to use the time allowed. He went far beyond just being a guide as the airport is complicated but he knew how best to get us through.
Our driver, Leon, was excellent. Very personal and knowledgeable. Recommend this excursion very highly
Your guide, Leon, went out of his way to ensure my wife and I got the most of of our your. Extremely well versed on the history Sights of Singapore.
It was great! Leon was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. Our driver was also very good even on tight curves & streets.
Leon was a great guide. He tailored the tour to what we were interested in. A very enjoyable experience.
This was a great tour. Our guide Leon was awesome! He took us to see places that we probably wouldn’t have visited on our own and he was very knowledgeable about Singapore. He answered all our questions and taught us a lot of Singapore history that we didn’t know. We really enjoyed the day with him!
We tailored our day for what we wanted to see and our guide added other Singapore sights for a great sampling of the city. Our guide was knowledgeable, informative and very helpful. We would ask for Leon again.
There were 4 of us. My father 93 and in a wheelchair, my two kids and me. A mixed bunch and we loved the experience. Our guide, Leon, was so Fri and enthusiastic and our driver, Udhay, so helpful. Udhay dropped us off and picked us off at easy access spots and helped with the wheelchair. Leon told us lots of things and knew what to show us. There is NO Way we would have been able to see and do everything we did without them. What we did in 4 hours would have taken days and been much harder. Definitely worth the investment. Thanks to Leon and Udhay for making our visit.
Leon picked us from the hotel right on time. He is very informative and knowledgeable on the sites we visited. We really enjoyed his company. Don’t hesitate to take him as a tour guide. 10/10.
The 4 hours with Leon was definitely worth the price paid. I agree with others that if this is a first time to Singapore, then a few hours with Leon will help make you make the most of the rest of your trip -- background, location, cultural insight, and more. Two things stand out -- first, Leon picks you up at your hotel to travel with only those in your group, nice car, and pace that is right for you. Stop when you want for pictures. Second, Leon knew we were interested in history and nooks not necessarily on the top of the list for "tourists," and he was able to fill in the details we might not have gotten as well as take us to some spots that were incredible for relaxing, pictures, and local experiences. The tour was a WIN for us, and I highly recommend it to others.
