Tour guide makes tour memorable - Jimmy was exceptional. He kept me wanting to know more when he went into vivid details of events in time. His knowledge on all topics of the tour had you feeling like I was there in history. If I could, I would search for all tours that Jimmy does, because I know they would be amazing.

Possible the best tour in Singapore - Jimmy is a marvellous guide, so knowledgeable, interesting and full of information without being berdy.
Showed us some hidden gems and gave a colourful background of the history of Singapore. Fascinating inside into street food culture and religious tolerance and integration.
Provided lots of hints and tips on where to go, what to see and how to get around

Incredible Singapore city tour with Jimmy - Jimmy was one of the best guides I have ever had on a tour. His history and knowledge of Singapore gave me much information I would never have otherwise found out. In addition, the information provided about the temples we visited was very interesting and something I appreciated learning more about.
I would highly recommend this tour, especially if Jimmy is your guide!

If you take one trip in Singapore, it should be this one. - Where do I start ...
Jimmy was so friendly, knowledgeable and informative. He is so passionate about Singapore and its history without being nerdy.
Showed and explained to us many things we'd walked past and ignored. GVe us do nany insights into what to see and do while in Singapore.
If you go on one trip in Singapore, do it with Jimmy
