      Fantastic tour with a great bunch of people & friendly/knowledgeable guide. Gerry made the whole experience seamless from start to finish, got everyone in the group talking and was highly informative about several of the cultures/quarters of Singapore. We tasted an incredible amount of food and learned about many of the owners and their passion for their cuisine - definitely come hungry to this tour. One of our highlights in Singapore for sure.

      We ate so many delicious dishes while enjoying Gerry’s conversation along the way! Gerry was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. He was super communicative leading up to the tour and accommodated allergies. We felt like one of Gerry’s personal guests and loved talking with the locals. We learned how to use public transportation on the tour which made the rest of our trip even easier. This tour was definitely a highlight of our trip to Singapore!
    • Loved this food tour!
