Highlights
  • Hello Singapore - Your private tour guide will meet you at your cruise terminal.

As a cruise ship passenger, you will most probably only have one or two days in Singapore. We understand how important it is to make the most of your short time in port and to see the best of Singapore in a time-efficient way.

After you have booked you will answer a number of questions about your interests and what you hope to get out of your tour. Your personal tour guide will then use this information to design a tour specifically for you.

If you have not been to Singapore before and have no preferences you will be taken on a comprehensive city tour. You will focus on exploring back streets, local neighborhoods and learning about the fascinating culture and history of Singapore. In 6-hours you will have time to visit and learn about at least 3 districts of Singapore. If you would like to see or do more please book an 8-hour shore excursion.

You can combine some of the must see’s like the Merlion, Singapore River Cruise and riding the Singapore Flyer with something a little more off the beaten track to ensure that you see Singapore for what it really is; a melting pot of cultures and flavours. It is a city that has seen unprecedented growth, a city that competes on the global playing field despite its tiny size. It has been beautifully designed with the intention not just to be ‘green’, but to be a City in a Garden.  It is a city where efficiency, style, gastronomies, and cultures meet like in no other.

If you are a foodie you can combine foodie elements into your Customised Shore Excursion, ensuring that you get a wonderful mouthwatering taste of Singapore.

If you would like to pick up some souvineers en route we can show you our favorite markets. Perhaps you are a budding photographer and would like to visit the most photogenic locations… Or an architect with an interest in learning about the city from a town planning perspective…Whatever it is we will ensure that your Shore Excursion is exactly what you are looking for.

Children aged 11 years and under join the tour for free. Anyone and 12 years and over is counted as a chargeable person.

A great way to experience Singapore - Gee soo was probably the best guide iI have ever experienced. He was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, fun, time conscious and extremely considerate. Gee soo took great photos which we promptly received after the tour. This was the best way to see and find out about Singapore in the time available. ( We were 2 fit 70 plus females)

Shiok!! 🇸🇬🇧🇸 - This tour was literally the best! Our tour guide was “a local boy” Richard. Extremely knowledgeable about Singapore’s history, transparent, open, friendly omg I could go on! It was an experience to remember. We felt safe with him the entire time.. we walked and trained around… shopped, ate, drank it was all just so overwhelming amazing.. it was Shiok!!! Awesome job Richard! If you’re ever interested in doing a walking tour of Singapore it doesn’t even make sense doing it without Richard!!!

Great Experience! - Our tour guide, Bibi, was excellent. She took us to beautiful places around Singapore. We went to beautiful Gardens by the Bay and Singapore Cable Car. We visited Chinatown, where we learned how modern-day Chinatown became after being shut down. We ate at the Hawker Centre, my best food in Singapore. Highly recommend!

Amazing walking tour - Kwang Wei was an amazing host. Travelling alone this was seriously the best way to hit the ground running. Be prepared to get the step count up but we saw Singapore from one of the highest points, took in the hawker culture, jumped on the MRT, hit Marina Bay Sands, caught a double decker bus to Raffles and enjoyed the famous Singapore sling. We squeezed in so much more but I had to pick the favourites.

Fantastic Tour - We had a great time. Gene our guide was fantastic and knew the best times to hit the various attractions that we had requested to visit. He was very knowledgeable and more than accommodating. Loved the Supertree Grove at night. It was an overall excellent tour.

Gee Soo Boo - a great Singapore Guide - My husband and I took a private 5 hour walking tour with Gee Soo Boo at Hello Singapore Tours through Viator. I rarely write reviews but felt I had to in this case. Gee Soo Boo was an excellent guide. A good mix of interesting places, combining an MRT and bus ride, a well chosen route, just enough historical and background information together with a fair amount of fun and laughter. We tasted some new food, drink and sweets along the way and were left feeling that we had truly experienced Singapore. You need look no further if you are looking for a great guide - book Gee Soo Boo and you won’t be disappointed

Perfect introduction to the city - An absolutely perfect start for a short stay in Singapore! Recommend it to anyone visiting. Richard our guide was perfect and flexible as it should be on a private tour. I did the tour with my kid who was 12 at the time and it worked perfect. The tour gave us a feel for the city and it was much easier getting around and feeling on top of things after the tour! Do the tour and I recommend starting your stay with it.
