Excellent tour. We sampled lots of different foods and learned lots from our excellent guide Angel. She is highly recommended. This is a must for anyone visiting Singapore. We went to Hawker markets in Chinatown and also visited Little India. Thank you Angel.

What a thoroughly enjoyable tour with Kim - she is a font of knowledge and really interesting and engaging. We sampled many local foods including Durian (not as bad as people make out) and found out so much about the local area where the Chinatown Hawker Centre was located. You have to be prepared to feel challenged with some food offerings but that is part of the experience - it is absolutely fine to say you don't like a particular dish. Wear something cool and take an extra bottle of water as it can get quite hot and sticky - as Singapore does. Enjoy

What a great tour, absolutely had a blast, our guides Jan and Kim made us feel very welcome, we learnt so much about the culture and really loved the food we tried. We will be back to Singapore and when we do we can't wait to try one of the other tours on offer. Thank you 😃

My partner and I and two teenagers did our Chinatown walking tour on our first day in Singapore just over a week ago - an excellent way to familiarise ourselves with the food and eating habits of the locals we thought and we were right. Our lovely guides Kim Ping and Pamela were punctual, knowledgeable and ready and willing to answer all our questions. Their knowledge of the local food scene extended to beyond that of the tour - happily giving us recommendations for places for other types of foods we were keen to try but which time and our full stomachs did not allow us to achieve in the time allocated for the tour. The teenagers gave it the thumbs up even though their taste buds were challenged by some foods they had never seen before. Highly recommended and we would be happy to do another Wok 'n' Stroll tour in the future!!
