Discover Singapore’s vibrant food culture and multicultural heritage on a private guided experience tailored just for you.
Choose between a 4-hour essentials tour or a 6-hour in-depth journey, exploring iconic neighborhoods, tasting local favorites, and uncovering the stories behind the dishes Singaporeans love most.
On the 4-hour tour, explore three cultural districts — Chinatown, Little India, and Kampong Glam — where each stop offers authentic meals that reflect the city’s diverse communities.
Upgrade to the 6-hour tour for an extended exploration through the Civic District’s colonial landmarks and a relaxing 40-minute river cruise, offering new perspectives of Singapore’s skyline and history.
Both options offer 9–10 authentic local dishes, engaging storytelling, and the personal touch of a private guide.
Perfect for families, couples, and first-time visitors who want to experience Singapore’s most iconic sights and flavours in one day!

What To Expect
Kreta Ayer Square
There is no one face that fits all Singaporeans. Racial diversity is the essence of being a Singaporean. Discover, through architecture, heritage and culture, how the local lives, where local eats, what locals do; with the assimilation of olden days trades and modern times occupations. The Tour starts off by an Introduction of why and how our Ethnic Quarters were formed, and what were the changes over the years. The first stop would be at Chinatown we showcase the Chinese culture, a brief introduction to the history of the area. Expect heart wrenching stories of labourers and vices of life.
Chinatown
Learn about the square and its surrounding, including visiting Chinatown Complex with its popular hawker centre and wet market.

3.00Tours content was potentially good and what we were looking for. However the delivery was a bit slow and found it a little bit difficult to connect to the tour guide
Wonderful experience with great food and cultural visits. Great way to get to know the city and enjoy hawker culture.

5.00We had a great walking tour with Jon. He was very knowledgeable and tailored our tour to our interests. He showed us how to use the MRT (subway) that was very helpful for the rest of our time in Singapore. Highly recommend!
Much more than a food tour and a wonderful guide.

5.00Ping was our guide for about 3 hours. There were 12 of us—four from the US and the rest from Germany, the UK, Australia and Kuwait. We had made new friends by the end of the tour because Ping fostered that sense of connectivity. We shared small meals together but she also shared her knowledge of this city and country and answered any questions we had without hesitation. So, this wasn’t just about being fed. It was about understanding the country. This is a really good company with excellent, dedicated employees. We had fun and deepened our knowledge of the culture. It was money very well spent.
Thank you Heng!
