With a background in business and education, I bring a thoughtful and well-researched approach to guiding. Rediscovering my fascination with Singapore’s culture and history inspired me to become a licensed Singapore Tourist Guide. I conduct heritage walking tours that explore Singapore’s colonial beginnings and its journey toward a vibrant multicultural landscape. My tours highlight the stories, architecture, and communities that shaped the nation, offering visitors a deeper understanding of how Singapore evolved into the dynamic city it is today. Passionate about creating meaningful and engaging experiences, I strive to make every walk informative, enjoyable, and memorable.

What To Expect

Fuk Tak Chi Museum

Fuk Tak Chi Museum is a small heritage museum housed in one of Singapore’s oldest Chinese temples, built in the early 1820s by Hakka and Cantonese immigrants. Exhibits showcase everyday objects from early Chinese settlers. These displays tell the story of immigrants who arrived by sea, gave thanks for safe passage, and built new lives in Singapore. Located along historic Telok Ayer Street, the museum offers a quiet, reflective glimpse into Singapore’s early immigrant and maritime history amid the modern city.
