For fans of culture and history - 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!

Highly recommend! - 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!

HJ gave us a fantastic introduction to Singapore - 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.

Excellent Tour - 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

Two Thums Up for Mr. Ronnie Tan, our superb Tour Guide - It was a superb tour hosted by super tour guide, Mr. Ronnie Tan. He is a true gentleman dedicated to his task and always went out of his way to accommodate our needs. Due to short time stay in Singapore, our guests could only enjoy this half day tour with Ronnie who explained every crook and cranny we came across during the tour, bringing an added interesting dimension to the experience. Excellent Job Ronnie and hope to engage your services in the near future when we have out of town guests coming to Singapore again!

Best tour of Singapore ! - Our Guide Monica was extremely flexible, she met us at a site of our choice, and then came earlier than planned since we had arrived early. She asked us what pace we wanted go at and listened to our request.
Monica knew every short cut, every shaded walkway, and every air conditioned path we could take. We covered every major site, saw fantastic hotels, experienced a Buddhist service, and learned a lot of history along the way. Her english was excellent and she truly loved being a tour guide.
We would STRONGLY suggest you book her for your Singapore Tour, it was worth every penny. After many years of international travel, we would say she was THE BEST tour guide we have ever had!!!!

Great tour - We had a great day with Jossie in Singapore. She led us to unexpected locations and great views. She shared her broad knowledge about her hometown and gave useful hints and tips for enjoying Singapore the best way. We loved her stories about Singapore‘s history and the architectural features the town has to offer. We won‘t have been to all the spots Jossie led us to and enjoyed the time with her very much. She showed us how to enjoy a hawker visit and introduced us to some new food experiences. Thanks once again for a time totally opposite of boring. All the best from us.

Wonderful Singapore - It was loads of fun and very informative
Singapore is a wonderful city, full of so many different nationalities and religions.
The city is spotlessly clean, people are delightful and, apart from the heat, I love coming back here

Fantastic introduction to Singapore - Our 4 hour tour of Singapore with Grayson was great. He provided a very understandable review of its complicated history. He gave us a comprehensive tour of important sites including great neighborhoods and important sites not mentioned in the guide books or blogs. He also provided valuable insights and information as to what we should visit on our own. He is thoughtful, patient, very helpful and very well spoken. He provided a suggested tour for his 4 hours with us and was also very flexible

Disappointing! It was cancelled but I was not notified! - 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.
