5.00This was a great introduction to Singapore for us! Natalie was a great tour guide, especially when faced with absolutely pouring rain and a good deal of stalls being closed due to CNY. Absolutely loved our Hainanese chicken and rice, and appreciated Natalie showing us the correct way to enjoy it with the trio of sauces! Thanks Natalie!
Wonderful Food Tour with a Great Guide

5.00Elaine, our guide, was absolutely wonderful. She took us to 8 or 9 hawker stalls and the selection couldn’t have been better.Elaine also was extremely informative about the history and culture of Chinatown. The tour lasted over 3 hours and left us with a great experience. Absolutely, mandatory for first time visit visitors to Singapore.

5.00Really had a good time during this walking tour. The food was plenty (too much actually since we were with a small group but the guide wanted us to taste a lot). But it was more then a food tour. Olivia is a good guide and I believe she is flexible in what she tells depending on the questions of her clients. So we also got a fair view into local live and culture. Really interesting. The food was great. Not really adventurous but really tasty. And I also got good feedback on how to pick the quality places when returning to the hawker centers myself.
Bring an empty stomach!

5.00This was such a great experience! We were the only 2 in the party so it was practically like a private guide. Gene asked us a few questions before starting in order to gauge what kind of foods we’d like. He was able to cater everything around our tastes. We had everything from Michelin Star rated Soy Sauce Chicken plate to finishing the night with satay skewers at Lau Pa Sat. Make sure to bring a super empty stomach! Gene was also kind enough to give us local Singapore tips and escorted us towards the hotel! Big thumbs up to Gene and Original Food Tours for arranging such a wonderful experience!
Best thing I did in Singapore

5.00We had a great night and learnt so much about Singapore’s hawker food culture and way of life in general. The venues selected were all fantastic and very different. Without Olivia’s knowledge, we wouldn’t have known where to visit or what to order! Highly recommended.

5.00Had a great experience with Gene Gerard on this hawker food tour. The food chosen was simply delicious, and the guide was not only very knowledgeable but also engaging and a pleasure to hang out with, and was very generous with his time. I learned a lot about Singapore traditions in general, and specific street food in particular.A highly recommended tour and guide!!!
Great night, great guide, great food

5.00We had the pleasure of having Olivia take us on this food adventure for the evening and it was a fantastic night. We got to learn so much, not just about the food but also local history, culture and day to day way of life in Singapore. The food Olivia chose for us was great, there was one local dish we weren't overly keen on but we tried everything and glad we did. We had more than enough food over the night, in fact there were a couple more dishes that Olivia had mentioned we would be sampling but we were so full we didnt get through all of them but can now go and try for ourselves. The tour is a walking tour and we went to a few different locations but all close to each other and very easy walking. The meeting instructions were spot on and Olivia escorted us back to MRT station so we could them easily find our way back to our accommodation. It was a great way to learn about the local cuisine and where to find it. We have already been back to a couple of the food centres ourselves and tried more dishes and all have been great. Olivia tailored the dishes to our tastes, the whole night ran very smoothly and Olivia was loads of fun. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn about local cuisine and where to find it at local prices.
