Choon Kiat was knowledgeable and pleasant and looked after everyone. This was our best tour. Choon is very personable and as it was hot considered our comfort. We were not rushed in the heat and we were able to go slowly and stop and look at things that interested us. He took us to Temples and all the iconic tourist spots as well as interesting alleys and by-ways we might not have found. The stop for the fruit juice was really good. We were kept hydrated and it was an easy four hour meander. I recommend this tour as it showed us the beginnings of Singapore and all its diversity.
Wonderful tour of cultural areas of Singapore

We really enjoyed Sanjiv. He communicated well with us before the tour so the meeting point was easy to find. Sanjiv was very friendly and knowledgeable. He explained so many interesting things about the history of Singapore and the different peoples and religions that have had influence here over the centuries.

Great, highly informative cultural tour by Quek. Touches on the history of the areas alongside their focal points like the temples. The walking tour is plenty for 4 hours, but well paced with a small group.

The tour with Quek was very informative and interesting. It is good to see the historic and ethnic areas of this modern city. Be prepared for a lot of walking but our wonderful guide kept us in the shade.

We had an amazing experience on our Singapore tour, made even better by our guide, Jolynn. We explored Chinatown, Little India, and the Arab district, each offering something unique and fascinating. Jolynn brought every location to life with her deep knowledge and engaging storytelling, helping us truly appreciate Singapore’s rich culture and history. She was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and thoughtful throughout the entire tour. What stood out the most was how she went above and beyond even after the tour ended, guiding us on exactly which train to take, where to get off, and making sure we got home safely and confidently. If you’re looking for a meaningful and well-organized tour experience in Singapore, I highly recommend Jolynn. She made the entire experience seamless, informative, and memorable.
