Excellent Tour
Kimberly G,Dec 1, 2024
5.0Gerry, did an excellent job. This tour was over and beyond what I was expecting. I highly recommend doing this tour if your in Singapore. The tour started out with Gerry meeting us at our hotel. He then took us to China town where he explained the culture and heritage of the Chinese people. We did some food sampling, which was a lot of food so be prepared to eat. We then headed to Little India and the Maylay Quarters and went down Haji Street. The tour ended in Kampong Glam and he took us back to our hotel. We loved the tour so much we ended up going back to some of the places after the tour ended.
What a wonderful day.

5.0This is an outstanding tour and the best I have ever been on. It's obvious Gerry is very proud of Singapore and comes his compassion comes through with talks. This is the ideal first day tour, picked up at the hotel, oriented to the variety of districts, learn how to use the MRT and bus system. Cannot recommend highly enough.
