5.00Tonight we did a great and impressive bike ride at Marina Bay in Singapore. Our guide, Shawn, was incredibly knowledgeable and a super nice guide. Along the way he told us all about the different sights, which really brought the city to life. The route was beautiful and varied – and how special it was to even cycle a part of the Formula One circuit! 🚴✨ An absolute must for anyone who wants to explore Singapore in an active way in a short time.

5.00We had a wonderful 3h tour through the City with Corliss as our guide. She provided a lot of interesting insights into the history of Singapore and even showed us some hidden treasures. Can‘t recommend her enough, would book again. She even texted us some tipps regarding our plans for the next days afterwards. Thank you, Corliss!
The best tour guide!!!!

5.00Enjoyed this casual walking tour! My guide picked me up at my hotel and we walked and chatted about both about the history of Singapore and the current policies/priorities and plans for the city. We ended our time together with Kaia toast and tea. Was a wonderful part of my into to the city!

5.00There were two of us with a guide, how good was that. The guide was informative, polite and gave us intermittent Air Conditioning. The AC important on first day of Singapore heat. The tour was great starting in the business district on top of a building to allow us to get our bearings. Then historical area finishing with the Merlion and walking through the historical Post Office building now an upmarket hotel with history preserved.
One of the best experiences

5.00One of the best experiences in the entire trip. We did the Marina Bay Nightime tour and it was such a wonderful experience. Our tour guide Tang was exceptional and so friendly and warm. He gave us so much information and was so hospitable. The tour was well organised and we didn't feel the 2 hours go buy. Definitely recommend this experience because it covers all the main spots and the views are gorgeous.

5.00Brought our family to the city highlights tour and loved it! We saw a lot of sights we would not have been able to find without a tour guide. We really enjoyed the experience of a smaller tour group, the experience was quite personal. We also noticed it was very family-friendly! Our guide Cheyenne was interactive with the kids and timed rests great for the family... Would highly recommend for anyone looking to explore Singapore!

5.00This bike tour provided an ideal introduction to Singapore. We only had 2 days in Singapore and this was perfect for us, taking in so many sites of interest. It including some old colonial sites like Raffles Hotel and the grand old Post Office, now the Fullerton Hotel. Our tour guide Yong Yuan Cheng was very engaging and talked us through each of the different ethnic districts for the Chinese, Indians and Malayans, covering colourful modern murals, Mosques and Hindi and Buddhist Temples. I particularly enjoyed cycling round Marina Bay with views of both city skyscrapers and the Gardens by the Bay. The tour was varied and well-paced. We had a good break in a street-food 'hawkers market' which had been relocated from the streets to a Chinatown Complex. There were quite a few of us on the trip but we were sensibly divided into 2 groups. Yong managed to orcestrate the logistics perfectly, answering all our questions while making sure no one was left behind. Highly recommended!
Never again
