5.00Lee was a great tour guide! He was very communicative via WhatsApp to ensure our timely arrival and help with any directional needs. He was informative and told us a little about Singapore’s culture and history. The river tour was beautiful and both light shows were phenomenal. This is a must do attraction!

5.00Both light shows were great; but Marina Bay Sands was the better of the two. Loved the river cruise as well. Extremely well organised with really good communication. Lee was awesome as our guide and commentator. Well done, would do similar if Lee was there to guide us. Thank you.
