5.00My tour guide HJ was great. Coming from the United States with 12 hours in Chinatown, Singapore and I was looking to learn more about 潮州, he was the right person for me. He was prompt and efficient with my time. The food, views and content of the tour made this experience 5 ⭐️. Lastly, I had trouble with my GRAB app and he was kind enough to talk to a nearby tax driver for me to let him know that I was going to the airport. I will be back again 🙏🏼
Lots of info - but not a food tour

3.00Ray is a great guy who has lots of cool info on Singapore. We really enjoyed his knowledge of Singapore. But the "food" part of the tour wasn't a food tour. He took us to one place, plopped us down, and started bringing plates and bowls of food. That isn't what food tour people want. We wanted to go to a variety of places, have some nibbles and continue on to the next place, all the while learning about the dish, what's in it, and why we are eating it -maybe something special about the chef/cook. We went to one place, ate a ton of food andthat was it - for the food. He did take us to a very cool Hindu temple and gave us info about Chinatown as we walked around. But for what we paid and what we got in terms of food -the tour was disappointing.
Enjoy Singapore as a local.. by bike and visit several hawker centres

5.00Great, kind professional guide who guides you effortlessly and with a smile through different parts of Singapore. You will be very very full w great food and you’ll know what to order in any hawker center and why. All questions are answered and a lot about Singapore is learned. Treat yourself to a kind and professional guide. If i am to visit Singapore again, i will book 2 tours with this guide. Loved it!
