Kenny was knowledgeable, open and interesting. We learned so much about the history and neighborhoods. But what made the tour even more special were the personal tidbits that he shared about his life, experiences and the culture of Singapore. We could not have imagined such a wonderful way to start of trip. Best intro to Singapore

We booked a 1/2 day tour with Leo through “with locals” in Singapore. Leo was really helpful and informative from the start, took us to some “off radar” local gems. Very knowledgeable and balanced being informative and fun. Even managed to get us to 3 Michelin Hawkers, 1 off which made famous by Anthony Bourdain . Marvellous stuff. Marcus 1/2 Day In Singapore

25 junio 2025

Leo was a fantastic guide who blending humor, history and sharing a genuine pride of Singapore. The tour pivoted slightly from a focus on Chinatown and we are so glad it did! Leo first asked - prior to tour - if we would be comfortable expanding beyond Chinatown and our time availability. We followed his lead and were treated to more of the city to include Chinatown, a rooftop view, hawker recommendations, a lobby/letter writing visit at the Fullerton for our kids… Leo was wonderful and so happy we explored the city with him. Wonderful tour and insight!

My daughter and I organised it so that we had an overnight layover in Singapore before our next flight. Went with Monica in the morning to discover what we could in 4 hours! It was a really great experience. We had so much fun and saw so many things. She accommodated us with times and with a couple of places that we wanted to see as well. Would definitely recommend!Amazing experience

If we could give Grayson more than 10/10, we would. The food tour exceeded our expectations and we really enjoyed our morning with Grayson. He is a very pleasant unassuming man with a relaxed but professional personal style. Although, this tour has a focus on Singapore food, we learnt so much about life in Singapore, the cultures, and lots more. We really appreciated that he was happy to answer our questions. Susan has a hearing loss and really appreciated that Grayson was happy to use her remote microphone which fed his voice through to her hearing aids. This made it much easier for her. Thank you so very much Grayson. This tour with you was one of the best things we have done in Singapore. By the way, we really enjoyed the food tastings and the different environments that we visited to experience them.Exceeded 10/10

Signed up for a tour with HJ on short notice. He took me to 2 different Hawker centers plus several other small restaurants and food stands to try Singapore’s dishes, snacks, and desserts. The tour also showed the history and the development of the city. Went through Chinatown, the downtown area, and ended in Boat Quay. Great afternoon in Singapore!Fantastic private food tour in Singapore

A big thank you to Grayson - he was organized, insightful, and engaging. We tried 10 different intriguing foods that you might not find in the guidebook. We walked through Arab Street, the Malay section and took the MRT to Chinatown. Along the way, Grayson gave us context for the food that we tasted along with the history of its introduction. As we walked, he gave us insights into Singaporean culture and politics that added to the experience. We were impressed by his depth of knowledge and appreciated him sharing his life experience. I would give him a 10 out of 10 and would recommend this to anyone visiting Singapore, ideally you might do it on your first day as Grayson was also full of suggestions that were very useful. Thank you! More than just food - insight into culture

(About local HJ)

7 junio 2025

From the moment we met HJ, we knew we were in for an adventure! He led us on a path to one of the Hawker Center’s detailing the history and culture of the area. At our first stop, he opened up his backpack to pull out water bottles and tissues before hurrying off to get our first tastes. He came back with plates of food to sample. Before we took a bite, he took a group pic (at the end of the day, he sent us all the photos he took with the dishes labeled). Next we went upstairs where he showed us around the “wellness” stalls and then the local garment stalls. Our next stop was the lower level for the fresh food stalls. He pointed out the various fresh fish, the buckets of live eels and giant prawns! We stopped at a fruit stand where he described the Asian fruits. When we told him we had never tried a mangosteen, he purchased a few and showed us how to get to the edible fruit center. We were skeptical but his enthusiasm encouraged us to try it. HJ was correct - we all loved it! As we walked to another market, he pointed out the public art and the historical buildings. The next food stop included MANY more dishes to sample and then dessert! After we couldn’t eat any more, HJ led us through the streets pointing out even more local history and art. We ended up on the rooftop of an apartment complex with views of Singapore and Malaysia & Indonesia in the distance. We thought our tour would simply be a sampling of tastes from the Hawker Center, but it was so much more!! Tour with HJ and you will have a great taste of Singapore.Fabulous tour of Singapore sights & tastes

Adam was punctual and polite. He always asked if we understood Adam is personable and eager to show a visitor an array of typically his communication and always asked if we wanted water or souvenirs during our tour. There was great communication and over the allotted time in order to get another taste of two before advice prior to our tour Adam tailored our tour to avoid places we were scheduled to visit. He uncovered some real gems for us that we would never have found ourselves.Adam was punctual and polite

Susan🇺🇸 United States

(About local Leo)

3 junio 2025

Where do I begin? It was excellent! Being a solo traveler I like having tour guides and Leo is one of my top 5 memorable guides of all time. He met me at my hotel (very kind of him and convenient for me) and had a loaded metro card ready for me to use. We used the clean and air conditioned underground train and walked for our tour. He knows the Downtown Core like the back of his hand and shared all the past, present and future facts of Singapore with me. He is extremely knowledgeable and enjoys questions. He taught me about their judicial government, Chinese history, educational system, food, religion and even Formula 1 (I’m a big fan). His way of sharing all this information was interesting, personal and timed to perfection so that when we discussed a topic, we were literally standing in that spot. I don’t think there are many places in the world where a tour like this one can exist. Leo and I had a fabulous day together and I was sad for it to end. He gave me valuable information to continue my day and evening. I highly recommend this tour and definitely with Leo. By the way, my metro card still had money left on it so I gave it to a worker at my hotel. It’s good to pay it forward.Amazng day with Leo!

HJ was very good at introducing us to lots of Hawker Stalls and food shops in various parts of Chinatown. He also showed us murals and signage that helped explain the history of the Hawker stalls as well as the experience of the Chinese people coming to Singapore and how they lived. Lots of food! Come hungry! Great Hawker Chinatown Experience

Monica picked me up at the hotel and showed me a side of Singapore that many tourists don’t see from the singing birds to the original village and local shopping areas. She was so considerate and aware of how hot it was for me that we popped into air conditioned places. So interesting to hear her personal life. A non tourist experience

20 mayo 2025

Grayson was very attentive, professional, and shared lots of information points throughout our tour. He promptly guided us to many different food areas and we sampled Indian, Malaysian, and Chinese dishes. There is a bit of walking involved, so I would recommend bringing a fan and/or an umbrella to cool down. All of the places we stopped to eat at did not have aircon, so just be prepared for the hot weather. Grayson noticed we were thirsty and led us to a nearby 7-11 to hydrate, as well. Grayson also went into more detail about the history of each area we visited and answered all of our many questions about housing, daily life, and more in Singapore. I would definitely recommend this tour with Grayson for anyone looking for an insider view of the city. And to enjoy a variety of delicious treats!Great food with Grayson!

Jack adjusted the tour to my wishes which was great, I saw a lot and he also extended the schedule. Unfortunately he was quite unfriendly and not in the right mood. Sometimes he weren't listening and didn't answer my questions or in a complete different context and kind of arrogant. Sorry to say that, but I didn't feel welcome. Highlights of Singapur

My husband and I were in Singapore for a few days and wanted to experience the Hawker food markets. Ang is very knowledgeable about Singapore and its history and was very generous sharing his knowledge with us. He was very thoughtful preparing for our tour together, bringing us fans to help with the heat, and showing us each dish we tasted in a book that described the dish. We had a lot of tastings and enjoyed the food and Ang’s company. He was very thoughtful and left us with souvenirs of our time together. Thanks, Ang, for a great tour!Enthusiasic Guide

HJ führte uns an nicht für alle betretbare Orte: Housing-Project, wir machten einen eindrücklichen Rundgang über die Dächer. HJ erklärte uns das Prinzip. Weiter erhielten wir Einblick ins noch erhaltene ehemalige Chinatown mit den 2stöckigen, bunten Häusern, wir explorierten das Hafenquartier mit historischem Unterbau durch HJ zu den Anfängen von Singapore und dem heutigen Nimbus. Wir können HJ und diese Tour nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen. Mit HJ: umsichtig, klug und humorvoll

Kenny was awesome. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Singapore. His recommendations were spot on, and the food he directed us to was the best I'd had on my vacation. He speaks several languages, and his English was very clear. My friend and I booked a 4 hour tour, and it FLEW by. I gained an immense appreciation for the city, and quickly realized we should have booked even more days there. I had no idea how much Singapore really had to offer, and I'm SO glad we booked this tour. 10 out of 10, worth every penny. When I come back, I'll likely book another tour with Kenny!Stop here--you've found a FANTASIC guide!
