I had to pay extra to have a private tour otherwise the tour was going to be cancelled. The guide was late in the morning, then stopped for a tea break and I kept on exploring on my own not to lose time. I was not informed that we were going to miss a stop and add others (so the itinerary changed without any notice). Never more. Really disappointed and poor service despite having paid more then the double.

Excellent walking tour of 3 historically and culturally interesting areas of Singapore. Our guide Adam gave us a fascinating insight into each area and the general history of Singapore. He was friendly, with a good sense of humour and made the tour more interesting because of his exceptional knowledge. Thank you Adam for a great tour - Keith and Julie
The guide I had was very informative and had great knowledge of Singpore history and all 3 towns. For a sole traveller it was very expensive, I was charged: $180 dollars plus had to pay for each train ride and I could have seen these areas on my own without paying $180, if you are solo don't waste your money.
This tour was very educative and we enjoyed every bit of it! Adam our tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave us all the facts about the culture of Singapore. He was very patient and catered to each and every one of our needs. We will definitely recommend this tour and Adam as your tour guide
This was a great tour to see all of the interesting parts of Singapore. Our tour guide Joyce was very informative and allowed us time to shop for souvenirs. And she took pictures for us as a group.
Terry Chau was an exceptional guide! Exploring Kampong Glam, Little India, and Chinatown with him made the cultural experience so much more vivid and meaningful. He took us through every little alley and explained everything so well. Plus, enjoying fresh mangosteen along the way was a sweet bonus! Highly recommend Terry for an unforgettable tour
Very interesting and guide was very knowledgeable. Highly recommended
Joyce was a very good guide and shared with us her own personal experiences as she is from Singapore. She allowed us to shop and took all our group pictures. I would recommend her to others.
This was a very informative and interesting tour. I was lucky enough to do this alone allowing for good discussion and lots of information shared by the guide
Corliss was an amazing guide. She had so much interesting information and was willing to spend time sharing that information. It was a great tour
This is a wonderful introduction to 3 areas of Singapore well worth spending time in. Ganesh was a super guide, giving all sorts of extra info and advice, can highly recommend this
👍 good trips , walking around and learn the cultural of Singapore. Joyce is an excellent guide. Very hot in Singapore !
Joyce was an amazing guide for the Singapore Chinatown, Kampong Glam, and Little India tour. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and local traditions of each area, and she made the experience both informative and fun. She was also very helpful throughout the tour, answering questions and making sure everyone was comfortable and engaged. Highly recommend this tour with Joyce if you want a great introduction to Singapore’s diverse neighborhoods!
This was a great way to know more about Singapore. Our guide Joyce is very knowledgeable and patient. We went on a rainy day but she made the most of it. Highly recommend.
Joyce is a very good tour guide. She was very accommodating and informative about the places we went and for the things we needed after the tour. She did the tour a very good one. Would recommend Joyce as a tour guide. :)
My visit to singapore was very short but we were able to see and visit many places in this tour with mr Tang, he has a good knowledge of the area and good spot to recommend.
Mosses had a wealth of knowledge He was generous with his time Which we thought was well above the normal Highly recommended
Joyce is a fantastic guide. She told us a lot about Singapore culture. She was very thoughtful and adjusted the tour for our needs. We highly recommend her Jean , Montreal Canada
Tour guide Ganish was easy to understand, very knowledgeable, extremely thorough and passionate for us to learn. Gave hints about mass transit, food, and many options to see.
Today we were lucky enough to have Adam as our guide. His extensive knowledge and insight into the history and culture of the areas we visited was invaluable. Adam took the time to make sure we were comfortable and safe at every turn. His cheery personality was an added bonus and we were grateful for all the added little tidbits of information that came our way. We would not hesitate to have him as our guide on any future opportunity!
We had a great tour with Su Ling. She was very knowledgeable and tailored the tour to our needs.
Highly recommend this tour Our guide Ganesh was really interesting and fun! went to lots of places we wouldn’t have found ourselves ! Good to see the different murals ! Great tour for finding out about china town little india. and Kampong glam ! It was chinese new year so everywhere was colourful ! We both really enjoyed this tour !
Enjoyed the tour, my guide was very kind and willing to be flexible based on what I wanted to do.
Very much recommended activity to get to know SG better. Ganesh was really knowledgeable and a great guide who has a lot of insight about the city
Great introduction to Singapore and it's neighborhoods. Guide was helpful and friendly and went out of her way to help us locate something we forgot to pack. Great tour
Ganesh was a superb tour guide! He gave us so much information on the various parts of Singapore. He was very helpful with my husband and really catered to our specific needs. We highly recommend Ganesh!
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Joyce on Saturday, January 17th. She was very knowledgeable about her city, providing us with valuable information right from the start. She spent time taking us to the various areas, explaining the different cultures. We enjoyed riding on the train, she even helped me to purchase a lovely gold chain. Thanks, Janet & Colin 🇨🇦
This walking tour provided a glimpse into the three old cultures of Singapore which spans its population. Chinese, Malay and Indian! It covered the old Chinatown, Little India, and Kampong Glam Malay Heritage! Our tour guide Joyce was very nice! Very knowledgeable about the three cultures and history of Singapore! I would recommend this tour to everyone visiting Singapore!
It was a very enjoyable and interesting tour. We learned a lot about Singapore and it’s cultural heritage. Our tour guide, Ganesh, told us many things about the city and its people, demonstrating a wealth of knowledge. We really liked his friendly and courteous manner. You could see that he truly enjoys his work. We highly recommend both, this tour and the tour guide.
Joyce started the tour with a history of the country before we even started walking, which was very helpful. She is very knowledgeable and was good at putting everything in context. We spent a good amount of time in each quarter, and the amount of walking and transit was a good balance. Joyce pointed out the important historical/cultural parts of each area and also a lot of detail about the food and markets - it was great to learn about the traditional foods and where to find good ones. Lots of opportunities to stop for snacks - and you can pick and choose when you want to stop or keep moving. Joyce knows a lot about the different cultures and is always willing to answer questions, share more facts, and tell you her perspective, so we learned a lot. Overall a very good tour!
Ganesh was wonderful! He was so informative, attentive, thoughtful, and accommodating to Our special needs. Thank you Ganesh! We highly recommend him!
Joyce was great… 100% recommend her and our tour to anyone. She is informative, patient and caring. Great morning. Book it!
We enjoyed our cultural tour. Our guide had an excellent knowledge of Singapore and its rich history. We went to areas we wouldn’t have as tourists, including Chinatown wet markets and hawker centres. The tour went for around 3.5 hours which was perfect.
We learned much of Singapore history. Joyce was great in sharing. All the sites were very interesting. Joyce also took many pictures for us
Ganesh was our guide who gave us the best experience. He was so considerate, knowledgeable, and personable. His tour exceeded all expectations. We found the tour interesting and learned so much about culture in Singapore! I would recommend Ganesh for any of the tours he leads
This could have been a fantastic walking tour but sadly the guide appeared to run out of puff and the last section was somewhat rushed. May have been something to do with the heat? Also, Francis was not perhaps as careful as he should have been to keep his own political etc views to himself.
Ganesh, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the areas and their history and culture. His commentary was very enjoyable and he was helpful and considerate. A very enjoyable tour and Ganesh even assisted getting us transport back to our hotel. Would highly recommend the tour and the guide.
Tremendous tour. Ganesh was so knowledgeable and could answer all our questions about Singapore, past and present. He was willing to adjust the tour for us as we had already seen much of Chinatown. He went out of his way to make sure we got back to our hotel in amongst the Deepavali crowd.
Our guide Joyce provided an excellent introduction to life in Singapore especially about its multiethnic society. She explained how Singapore achieved its independence and what life is like for ordinary Singaporeans.
Our tour guide, Ganesh, truly liked his job and was passionate about Singapore. He took the time to explain the culture and social systems of the city. We came away with an in-depth knowledge of its people and how they live. Ganesh helped us understand the people in each area.
Ganesh is real great ! Strongly recommended to engage him for local tours around Singapore. Lots of insights. Went for 3 ethnic precinct over 4 hours by public transport , Ganesh gave a super summary of what Spore has and is
Ganesh was such a great tour guide, he knew everything about this city and just had so much passion and knowledge he was eager to share. It was such a memorable experience and made us love Singapore even more. The tour took us into the temples & Mosques, and gave us the knowledge of how the areas started, how they became what they are today, and just so much personalized input of what we would enjoy in the area and what we should do next. I am so glad we booked this tour. Thanks Ganesh for everything, you will be in our memories of Singapore forever! Thanks for making our day special.
Ganesh was truly the most remarkable and intelligent guide we could have asked for on our cultural tour through Singapore’s Chinatown, Kampong Glam, and Little India districts. We learned a great deal about where we were- the history of both the areas and of Singapore itself, we saw things we never would have noticed, and we enjoyed visiting areas both on and off the beaten path! I cannot recommend this tour more highly- 10/10 experience! Really made our trip special! Thank you Ganesh!
Francis was knowledgeable and thorough and offered us have a wonderful cultural tour of Singapore. Thank you Francis!
It was a magnificent tour, thanks above all to our guide Tang. He explained everything in detail. He is a great professional and you can see that he enjoys his work. Thank you, my friend Tang.
We had a great time during the trip! Get to know more about the history and culture. Our tour guide Roy is super kind, knowledgeable and thoughtful. Highly recommend!
Nice tour, saw a lot in a relatively short time.
The tour guide is great. They answer any questions I have, and they also proactively ask everyone if they have any questions. They also introduce good restaurants.
