Bringing Singapore to life - a great walking tour

5.00Fantastic tour with Rachel who adapted and tailored the tour around our interest In Singapore history and culture. We'd visited 30 years ago and much had changed and in other ways not. Visiting China Town, the Singapore City gallery fascinating to learn about the city's development and approach to planning. The Hindu temple we popped into was conducting a lively and beautiful ceremony. We finished off with a visit to the top floor of a public housing building which was really interesting and offered great city skyline views. I had a bit of a sore throat and Rachel took me to a herbalist in China town for cough syrup and throat sweets. What a wonderful memorable afternoon. Thank you

5.00We had Rachel as our private guide. She was excellent and we got to see parts of Singapore we hadn’t experienced yet. It was nice having a private guide as we were able to tweak certain sites we wanted to see. Rachel then gave us an excellent recommendation for eating a late lunch. Rachel’s knowledge and expertise was greatly appreciated

5.00Rachel was an amazing guide during our 6 hour private walking tour in Singapore. She was so friendly, fun and knowledgeable and we enjoyed every minute with her. We covered a lot of ground in Singapore on foot and using the subway. Her communication was excellent from contact before the tour and including follow-up and helpful suggestions after the tour ended. I would definitely recommend her for your Singapore visit!
