Extremely memorable many years later

Published on Feb, 2025

I’m writing this review several years late, but it sticks out in my mind as one of the most enjoyable tours I’ve had. Would absolutely recommend.

Great local food tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Our guide Gee Soo was amazing. So friendly, very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions the group had on Singapore. We really enjoyed seeing the different neighborhoods and learning more about the history of Singapore and local life as well as trying the local food. Would highly recommend

A fabulous intro to Singapore--both the food and the city

Published on Jan, 2025

We did this tour our first morning in Singapore and it was a fabulous introduction to the city. We not only got to try a lot of food but we got some context for Singapore as we moved from neighborhood to neighborhood. Su Ling was amazing. This was so worth the price!

Great introduction to Singapore

Published on Jan, 2025

A great way to experience Singapore's fantastic food, while learning about the culture and history of this amazing city. I loved the tour so much, this was my second time (the last being 7 years ago).

A well-rounded taste of Singapore's varied cuisines

Published on Jan, 2025

Su Ling was our guide. She is extremely knowledgeable about Singapore, it's history, it's cultures and it's foods. We tasted foods from five different cultures in the one-day tour. Su Ling was very well prepared and supplemented her explanations with visuals on her iPad. I highly recommend this tour.
