5.00William was a fantastic guide and introduced us to a whole new world of food. We wouldn't have had the confidence to visit a hawker centre on our own but he was so informative and inspiring we will definitely head to them next time we visit Singapore. Everyone was super friendly and the food was delicious. We also visited the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple on our walk and tried some pineapple tarts and tea from a shop.
Stress-free walking food tour was excellent!

5.00Great overview of Singaporean food, history and culture! The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. We got lots of history and context for the many different styles of cuisine available. Logistically the guide was supported by a helper who went ahead of us to get tables and join the queues.
