3 Ethnic Neighborhoods & UNESCO Street Food / Cultural Experience
Available languages
From SGD 200
Overview
This exciting tour brings you to the ethnic neighbourhoods of Chinatown, Little India and Kampong Gelam. You will learn about the history, people, culture & heritage, which are what make Singapore uniquely diverse.
You will experience the everyday lives of the locals not only through sight and sound, but also through your taste buds. We will visit 2 UNESCO inscribed hawker centres (at Chinatown & Little India) and sample authentic local cuisines and drink, some of which have been passed down from generations and are fast diminishing due to the lack of family successors continuing with the trade.
To experience the local experience even further, we will also be taking public transportation between the different ethnic quarters, which are efficient, convenient and comfortable.
This tour will help you understand how the locals live their lives, which reflects Singapore's unique multi-racial and cultural lifestyle, and at the same time fill your stomachs with really amazing food and drink.

Highly Recommended - more than just a food tour

5.0Gerry was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of Singapore and its cultures. He is passionate about supporting the locals, their traditions and businesses. Visited a local restaurant in Little India and a hawker centre in Chinatown, used by the locals. Experience of local transport as well as walking. The food was amazing and we tried foods we wouldn't usually have ordered, which were delicious. Make sure you're hungry!!
Put this tour at the top of your list!

5.0Gerry was an amazing guide! With only a short time in Singapore, this tour was absolutely perfect for all the sights and flavors we wanted to experience. We got to try fantastic eateries that my husband and I probably would have never discovered on our own. What I especially loved was that it wasn't just about the food—Gerry walked us through the neighborhoods and shared the fascinating history behind each spot. If you're thinking about booking (and you definitely should), my tip is to come hungry!
Highly recommended

5.0My husband and I enjoyed a small group food tour with Gerry our informative guide. Gerry’s passion for supporting local family food Hawkers was impressive. The food we ate was delicious and authentic to Chinese, Indian and Arab cuisines. Thank you, Gerry, for a wonderful introduction to the foods and history of the multi-racial population of Singapore.
Fantastic tour
