⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Life-Changing First Day in Singapore – Thank You, Roy

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Life-Changing First Day in Singapore – Thank You, Roy I want to give my deepest thanks to Roy, who was my private one-on-one tour guide on my very first day in Singapore. I booked several tours during my trip, but nothing compares to the experience I had with him. I am so grateful for everything he did — and I promised him I would leave a review, because he truly deserves it. From the moment I met him in the hotel lobby, Roy had this warm, original energy that immediately made me feel safe and excited. I knew instantly that my first day in Singapore was going to be something special — and I was right. Our 5–6 hour private tour took us through so many parts of Singapore: temples, Chinatown, cultural landmarks, historical areas, hidden streets, and places I would have never discovered on my own. Visiting the temples throughout Chinatown genuinely humbled me and moved me emotionally — when I got back to my hotel, I actually cried from how beautiful and meaningful the day had been. Roy’s knowledge of culture, history, religion, and the true heart of Singapore is phenomenal. What makes Roy even more exceptional is that he pre-planned my entire Singapore trip even before I arrived. He mapped out which temples we would see, what trains and buses to use, which areas to explore, and what cultural, spiritual, nightlife, river, and food experiences were meaningful for me. When I landed, everything was already curated and perfectly organised — all I had to do was follow Roy. The pricing for a one-on-one private tour with him is unbelievably reasonable considering the amount of knowledge, storytelling, guidance, and care he provides. You’re not just paying for a guide — you’re paying for a once-in-a-lifetime cultural experience. Roy made my first day in Singapore one of the most beautiful and unforgettable days of my life. If you are visiting Singapore — especially if it’s your first day — book Roy immediately. He will set the tone for your whole trip with warmth, authenticity, wisdom, and heart. Roy, thank you for giving me the opportunity to explore your country with you. I am truly honoured, humbled, and extremely grateful. I will definitely be booking with you again when I return to Singapore.
Exceptional Singapore Tour Experience with Jack

5.00accommodating with our schedule and thoughtfully planned our itinerary around the time of day, the heat, and our personal interests. When the weather was hot, Jack made sure we were visiting sites with air conditioning, and once it cooled down, he took us through vibrant local areas where we could truly experience how Singaporeans shop and eat. His attention to detail and genuine care made our time memorable and enjoyable. We would highly recommend this tour—and especially Jack—to any friends or family visiting Singapore.

5.00What a wealth of information we learned as we toured with Adam! He was very knowledgeable and knew the history of Singapore inside and out! The fun facts he added provided an experience that was over the top. From our beginning at the Orchid Garden in the Botanical Garden to the ending in Little India at the Tekka Market the day was amazing! Our preferences were readily considered with care and concern for the heat and humidity.
Roy was a great tour guide, ask for him.

5.00Roy was our tour guide for the morning. He provided us with a positive and memorable experience. He kept us engaged for four solid hours, immersed us with history of how Singapore became what it is today. He made our tour memorable. He was enthusiastic, professional, attentive, shared engaging information and stories, facts and other details that kept us interested all morning. If you get Roy, you will be in for a great tour.

5.00Our 4 hour walking tour was a very pleasant and enjoyable experience. We had pre planned with our guide (Dr Stan) before our arrival which areas we would like to visit and he managed to fit in all our requests. We visited Kampong Glam/Chinatown/Civic District along with fitting in lunch at Michelin Hawker (which was delicious).

5.00Jon was a fantastic guide! He focused our tour to meet the needs of our group. He was probably the best guide that we have had while we have visited Singapore!! He was very informative about all kinds of topics when we asked questions.
Wrong tour

2.00This was the first Viator I’ve booked of many that was unsatisfactory. There was some disconnect between what I booked (A Singapore highlights tour) and what the guide thought was the tour - “an intensive food tour of the Singapore hawker food stalls.” I blame Viator rather than the guide who was enthusiastic and knowledgeable but was clearly looking to provide a different experience. I will note that my original guide cancelled so perhaps this is where the screwup began.
Excellent walking food tour

5.00We had a great food tour. Roy was amazing and excellent. We tried so many local dishes and treats that we would never have tried on our own. Roy explained the food, the customs, the dishes and we toured some of the temples as well. It was truly an amazing experience.
