He shall be known as Grayson the Great - I had a great time with Grayson! He was highly communicative leading up to the tour, which was fantastic. I was flying solo, so it was just me and Grayson. He was really chill, great to talk to, and funny to boot. He is a wealth of information about the local food and culture. I tried many things I would have never ordered on my own. As we walked around the city he discussed the history, culture, and architecture along the way. I highly recommend booking with Grayson!

Fun day in Chinatown! - What a great day we had with HJ! He treated us to numerous, yummy treats of Chinese cuisine. We were able to get familiar with several different hawker food centers and local eateries. The food was great, the portions generous, and we enjoyed tasting new dishes we probably would not have ordered on our own. We were also lucky enough to visit with the oldest Loin Dance group in Singapore, tour the Chinese Opera museum, and get a magnificent city view from a nearby roof top building. HJ went above and beyond for us!! Great tour! Great guide! We highly recommend!

Amazing Hawker Food tour - Grayson was a gem, he was so knowledgeable about History and gave us an experience we would never have had . The Hawker markets were fascinating and the food he selected delicious. I really cannot recommend him highly enough and would definitely use him again.

The only reason I didn't give him a 5 star it's because he made a request for a tip, which was off putting. Tips are generally given for going above and beyond the expectations, and making a request for it is not professional.

Avoid Hawker Center Private Customized Food Tour - The tour is a total rip-off! We (my wife and I) paid S$ 334 for the tour, and we sampled following drink/dishes: 1. Sugarcane Juice (drink - 2 cups S$ 4) 2. Popiah (Snake -1 order S$6) 3. Chwee Kueh (Snake -1 order S$4) 4. Hainan Chicken Rice (Meal - 1 order S$8) 5. Hokkien Mee (Meal - 1 order S$10) The tour guide took us to two different food courts - one in Chinatown and one in the finance center. While we walked from Chinatown to the finance center, the guide did provide us with an overview in terms of the some of the historical points. The overall duration is about 1 hour and 40 minutes. The way as I see it, we were paying the guide's time, and the rest fee was split between the organizers. We had a similar food tour in Thailand, it was far better than this one. My suggestion is to avoid taking food tour in Singapore.
