We did a private city tour and had the pleasure of having John as our guide. He is in the top 1% of all the guides we have had over the years. His knowledge of Singapore may be unmatched. For every question we had, John answered with an amazing and thoughtful story. Of course, we visited different neighborhoods, the botanical gardens, Times Square and then found time for chicken rice. Be sure to book John!
Jon was an amazing guide. So knowledgeable and fun. Wonderful way to explore Singapore and have a great time.
Guide was very accommodating and helpful in explaining the city. If you want a custom tour of Singapore this is it! He also sings!
Excellent tour. I said that I didn't want to get out of the people carrier too much because I have bad knees and it was v hot and Jon tailored the day to what I wanted. In my experience, some guides say they do but they don't really listen. Jon let me choose what to do and was relaxed when I asked to stop for lunch in the air con! Very nice man. V knowledgeable and genuine.
Booked this tour 6+ months in advance. The guide, Stefan, canceled the night before and left us without a tour on our first day in Singapore. No other guides available. Very disappointing!
Roy was amazing guide - We would book him again - he sjowed us great spots and it was a great experience and kick start into our Singapur adventure
Guide was knowledgeable and very patient. He answered every question with statistical evidence. Great tour.
My father and I had a wonderful time exploring and learning about Singapore with Ron. It was a wonderful experience I would highly recommend!
Excellent way to see the major sites in one day. Our guide was fantastic! Really enjoyed learning the history of Singapore.
Deonne was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and well prepared. We would recommend this tour. You need to do this trip.
Deone was a fabulous guide and the sweetest person ever!! She met the 4 of us at our hotel at the time we agreed on and took us on an all day adventure on foot, metro and even arranged for a car at times! We explored so much in one day. Here are some of the things we did: Little India, Tekka Centre, Chinatown, heritage houses on Pagoda street, artist murals, the Maxwell food center (She bought us healthy cold juice drinks and 3 differents snacks to share!). After that we went to the Botanic Gardens including Orchid Garden, then Orchard Road, Raffles Hotel. Deonne customized our day to our needs since we did some of the sights on our own the previous day. She also brought lots of water for us, had sanitizing wipes for us and a little gift. She even had our metro passes ready!! If you want to tour Singapore and love to walk, Deone is the guide for you!!!
We had a perfect tour with our guide Monica. She speaks perfectly English and knows a lot to tell about Singapore. We got her to know as an open-minded and very polite person. She also helped us to plan the further days of our stay in Singapore.
Jon was very informative, funny and accommodating. It was a private tour and we discussed the itinerary and made adjustments on the fly. He knew exactly where to take us and had stories along the way. We recommend Jon to anyone wishing to quickly get an overview of Singapore and its history.
This is the best way to get to know Singapore. To do this tour with HJ is like to be with a friend that lives in the city and it is showing you around. I loved the hidding gems that we visited and all the historical places. And All the stories that only a local can tell you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Jon gave us a great overview of the city in 3 short hours. He picked us up promptly in a deluxe van and took us to see the sights. He happily adjusted the tour to our desires. Would highly recommend this tour for first time visitors to Singapore.
Great way to get a personalised tour of Singapore. Richard was excellent and loved telling us about the history of Singapore. He showed us things we would definitely have overlooked on our own. Definitely worth it
Fantastic overview of Singapore! Ronnie was knowledgeable and gave us a great background on Singapore’s history, geography and culture (and most importantly, food!). Would highly recommend to hit the ground running with a working knowledge of Singapore!
Had a great day with Leo. We were a group of six and everyone thoroughly enjoyed Leo’s knowledge, his local expertise and his sense of humor. We learned so much about the history and the culture of Singapore. We visited sights not to be found on a routine tour that enhanced our appreciation for the history and the future of Singapore. Highly recommend.
Our tour guide, Jeremy, went above and beyond to make our tour memorable. We had originally meant to do the private tour by car, but accidentally booked the 7 hour walking tour. When Jeremy learned how hard this would be on my wife’s bad knees, he rearranged the tour to let us use ride share and the train as much as possible. His humor, knowledge, and enthusiasm really showed through. We recommend 100%.
Kenny is a great tour guide. He lists himself as an adult educator and that’s exactly what he is. We learned so much about Singapore - past and present. He caters the tour to suite your specific needs/desires. My husband has mobility issues due to a stroke. Kenny tailored a walking tour to match my husband’s abilities and kept up the dialogue throughout to keep everything interesting and engaging. We highly recommend Kenny.
This was our second time together in Singapore and we wanted to do a tour to learn more and walk around. Richard was phenomenal! He was so fun to talk with and share stories. He took some amazing pictures too. We are grateful we met him and spent some of our trip with him. Thank you!
Our guide for the day, Ang is an animated and engaging storyteller, rich in knowledge of the history and culture of a nation that he is fiercely proud to be part of. Generous with his time, his lived experiences, and a delightful surprise at the end of the tour, Ang is an exceptional guide who provided us with a day we won’t soon forget. Highly recommended!
John really knows Singapore and introduced us to all the neighborhoods and cultures. We especially loved the very in-depth exploration of the grounds at Raffles.
Ronny was full of knowledge and very considerate and we and a wonderful time. He fitted in areas that we particular wanted to see.
This was a memorable & impressive tour of the city. Our tour guide, Richard, was informative and articulate. We’ve learned a lot of history & practical information from him. Richard knows the city like the back of his hand that we have managed to walked around the city without getting too much sun exposure & bogged down by the heat. He’s not only a great photographer but also showed us to the food courts & use of MRT system. We highly recommend this tour & ask for Richard if you choose to go on this tour.
What a gem ! Monica meticulously planned our tour to avoid the heat and the tourist buses. She delivered on our request for the food and cultural history of Singapore and enabled us to connect to the soul and heart of Singapore. A truly wonderful immersive tour Thank you dear Monica.
We spent 4 hours with Grayson giving us a personalised tour of Singapore- he was informative and interesting - we had a fabulous afternoon learning about modern day Singapore and it’s past - went away feeling that we had been given a rich overview of this wonderful city
The best tour of our life! The guide was so good, took us everywhere, showed us local life. We enjoyed food and fruits from the markets, he gave us history lessons in an incredible way and had even prepare gifts for us!! A MUST DO!
We loved Kenny! He is super communicator and did made all the family (includu g our 10 years old boy) appreciate Singapor’ s rich and diverse culture
From the beginning we were very impressed with the info given by Grayson. Took the time to give us a tour to our capabilities, Took us to a very wide range of interesting sites. A tour to remember by a great Grayson as a tour professional. Had a very enjoyable day
We spent a delightful half day in Tiong Bahru, Kampong Gelum and Little India. Grayson is skilled at presenting interesting information without flooding you with minutiae you won’t remember 10 minutes later. He threw in fun tidbits along the way, and easily answered all of our questions. We left with a solid foundation of Singaporean culture and history. Highly recommend taking a tour with him!
We spent a whole day with Grayson, since we did both a day and night tour. Grayson was a pleasure to be with. He is very knowledgeable about everything related to Singapore and he went out of his way to make sure that we were comfortable throughout the day. We would highly recommend him.
Grayson is an amazing guide.I had no idea what was in store for us on this city tour we booked.The entire itinerary that Grayson planned for us and each and every spot he took us to while discussing about the local culture and life of Singaporeans for a real treat.Few hidden spots he showed us, we would have never ended up reaching there on our own. Starting from Colonial district and ending our walking tour at Arab street, understanding how secular and beautiful Singapore truly is, Grayson made our trip really worth it.
Jeremy was so engaging and asked questions to see what I was most interested in. We explored many areas of the city by foot, train and grab cars. He introduced me to local places and flavors. Very knowledgeable and friendly Enjoyed my day immensely
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with HJ, who impressed us with his extensive knowledge and engaging commentary on the historical and cultural significance of the places we visited. Given Singapore's hot and humid weather, we appreciated HJ's thoughtful gesture of providing a car with air conditioning for the tour. I wholeheartedly recommend HJ for an informative and comfortable tour experience.
This is a great way to start your Singapore trip. You’ll see a lot and get used to the MRT. Highly recommended.
Amazing guy with so much knowledge. Made our first day a day to remember and was so friendly would definitely recommend him to everyone. His passion for his country shone through and he helped by telling us how to get around the city and the best sights for the rest of our stay
Ang does a wonderful job sharing the history and social organization of the cultures and the history that shaped today's Singapore. Experiences that included visiting a market and a public housing site helped to illustrate these. Very insightful and entertaining.
Peter is a passionate and very professional tour guide. He gave historic and religious background to all my family members about Little India and Kampong Glam. I will contact him again next time that I will come to Singapore.
We did two half-day tours with Monica. She masterly navigated us through Singapore and introduced us to numerous sights and neighborhoods while being considerate of the perseverance of the group (2 adults, 2 kids) and gracious with her time. We do recommend her unconditionally.
Monica was an awesome tour guide. She showed us around the sights of Singapore and told us some interesting history and stories along the way. Both the adults and teens enjoyed it and that is no easy feat. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Monika and her walking city guide tour.
Monica was amazing. She totally "read" the audience and made the tour interesting for all ages. She had great interesting facts, a great sense of humor and also did her research on where we were coming from so that she knew a few things about our home town. The pace of the tour was perfect and we appreciated the underground air conditioned parts of the tour.
Ronnie, my tour guide, was fabulous and told me so much about Singapore I never would have known. I only had 24 hours there, so this was well worth it!
We spent amazing and very insightful hours in this impressive city with our tour guide leo. He is not only extremely knowledgeable about the history and politics of singapore, but also very warm and funny. We learnt a lot, laughed a lot and recommend a tour with leo to anyone who wants to learn more about singapore from a local! Heartfelt wishes to leo and thank you very much! Alexandra & Daniel
The walking tour was comprehensive and any questions were answered immediately . Grayson is clearly very knowledgeable and a friendly host
My family went on a city highlights tour with Grayson and it was an awesome experience. We were able to soak up so much of the rich history thanks to Grayson. The tour features plenty of air conditioned sections, which is a huge bonus. He was also very mindful of my parents, who are in their 60s/70s, making sure they got breaks during the walking tour. I highly recommend doing this tour!
Apparently the tour was cancelled the night before but I didn’t get the cancellation. So I rushed to the venue but there was no one there and after 30mins of messaging group and stressing for potentially missing my tour, doubting I had gone to correct location, I managed to get hold of the booked guide who advised the tour had been cancelled the night before due to an emergency. I had really been looking forward to tour and hadn’t made alternative plans so now I’m leaving the country with a sense of disappointment, regret and no fond memories. If I had been told of this cancellation in advance, I would have made alternative plans.
Monica is a fantastic guide! Friendly, easy going, full of facts, interesting information and stories. She will teach you how to get around on the MRT system. She has great tips for the rest of your stay. As a solo female traveler I found her super helpful! I moved around more comfortable on my own afterwards. I can’t recommend her enough. It is obvious she loves what she does and she’s great at it! Thank you again Monica, an unforgettable morning!
Our four hour tour with HJ gave us a fantastic introduction to Singapore. HJ was a great guide, thoughtful, happy and he clearly enjoyed sharing his extensive knowledge of Singapore with us. We visited many interesting places, had a super lunch in one of the hawker markets, walked some fascinating streets we would never have found on our own and learnt plenty about Singapore. Due to the extreme heat HJ kindly drove us in his new car to some of the sights which was a welcome relief. Thank you HJ for a wonderful afternoon.
My husband and I booked a very last minute 4 hour tour of the sights of Singapore with HJ it turned out to be a great decision. We saw so many unexpected parts of the city that only a local would know about. HJ was knowledgeable, friendly and kept a pace that was comfortable for us in the warm Singapore weather. Highly recommend
