5.00We had a wonderful experience! William was an excellent guide, so funny and full of information. He did well handling a difficult member of the group and kept the overall experience positive for the rest of us. The food was great and we had a wide variety of choices. The team that helped prepare was much appreciated as it helped to reduce the wait times at each stop.

Exceptional Hawker Experience with Eric

5.00This was one of the highlights of our time in Singapore. Eric was an outstanding guide and was knowledgeable, warm and genuinely proud of the local food culture. He navigated the hawker centres with ease, explaining the history behind each dish and helping us try a thoughtful variety of specialties. The food quality was exceptional. Every stop felt carefully chosen, and the flavours were authentic and memorable. It was not just a food tour, but a deeper introduction to Singapore through its hawker heritage. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to understand the city beyond the surface, and to eat very well while doing so.
Excellent Hawker Tour

5.00We had a great tour with YC and Kiran! We were able to try so many different dishes (including the most famous ones!) without waiting in any queues, while also learning about the history and culture of Singapore while walking from place to place. Arrive hungry and ready to eat!

5.00Swee Lin Khong , our guide, made this tour truly special. Informative, intelligent and warm, she gave purpose and meaning to the places we went and the food that we enjoyed. All the food was plentiful and delicious. But the Laksa from Famous Sungei Road’s Trishaw Laksa, and the Curry Puff from Tanglin Puff, were superb. We would never have found these places on our own.
Wonderful tour and excellent value for money!
