3 March 2025

A bit disappointed with this trip. Stefan was pleasant but only provided information when asked and didn’t try to connect with us. Had 3 dishes at a Hawker centre which were great, only got very limited info when prompted and then a quick dash to Gardens at the Bay for the lightshow. Stefan didn’t appear to notice that we were lagging behind. We were meant to have further snacks at satay at the bay but they had stopped serving (which seemed to surprise Stefan) so could only have a couple of drinks and some spring rolls ( nice but we can get them at home!) that we paid for. This wasn’t the experience that we hoped for. We said we were tired and would like to get a taxi/grab back to our hotel but Stefan wanted us to go to the MRT and get a taxi at Orchard. It didn’t feel like our needs were taken into account. Hmmm

Jon was a bag of knowledge and took the extra care to provide headphones linked to a microphone which made it very easy to hear. We visited some great sights and Jon was able to describe everything in great detail.....we almost had no time to breathe. Night tour of Singapore

Monica was an incredible host! She guided us through the nightlife and local scenery with ease, making the experience truly memorable. Her fun, light-hearted personality, combined with her knowledge of the area, added so much to the tour. Monica also tailored the experience based on our earlier city kickstart tour, ensuring everything flowed seamlessly. I highly recommend booking with her—you won’t be disappointed.

Kenny was an excellent tour guide and he provided us with the perfect stop-over taste of Singapore. Not only did we learn a lot from Kenny about the history and culture of Singapore, but we were treated to a local’s view of the city meaning we were shown a few little secret spots we wouldn’t have been able to find otherwise! Kenny also made us feel very relaxed and welcomed. We had a wonderful time with Kenny and would very highly recommend booking a walking tour with him! An insightful tour with a friendly local

Grayson was fantastic. He was very informative. My husband and I thought we related to him a bit more than the other tour guides we had. He spoke English very well. Singapore is an absultely stunning city at night with all the lights. The night chicken satay market was lots of fun. Grayson took lots of good pictures of us and share some great ideas on unique things to do while in Singapore. We highly recommend Grayson for any tour but this tour truly was a magical evening. The tour ending at the light show which is something you SHOULD NOT miss. It was incredible. Thank you Grayson!

Although I have been to Singapore previously I wanted to learn more about the sights that I can visit on my own. Kenny was exceptional with his knowledge of the history, culture and ongoing development of Singapore. This was done at a relaxed but efficient pace with knowledge communicated intelligently, fluently, engagingly. Our trip around Chinatown and the light show at the Gardens was exactly what I wanted.Enjoyable evening experience

We had a short overlay in Singapore with 6 hours. The decision to have Johns Singapore by night tour, was just perfect. We met John at 7pm at the happy Chinatown district. We walked through streets , markets, pedestrian areas where the citizens of Singapore take at night a short break. We had some food in an special market and continued our tour by having a short ride by underground to the Bay Area. At this place we watched a special moment what was thrilling. After that we went to the sand hotel , mall to finish there the tour after 3 hours. John was prepared with all things you might need during the tour. Mosquito spray, hand tissue, a blanket, water and so on. We were traveling as family with three teenagers, what complaint before and where amazed after the tour. John made it just great, to get an impression how Singapore is at night. We deeply suggest John and his tours , cause he just focused on that what was needed. Short overlay in Singapore

Intelligent, informed with excellent communication skills, our "Magical Evening in Singapore: City Tour" was one just that. Kenny is a very intelligent man, well versed in the history and culture of Singapore. As we moved from one part of the city to the next, he was able to explain and answer all our questions about this fascinating "City State". It all culminated with the Gardens by the Bay, light show, truly a magical experience. Thank Kenny teaching us so much about Singapore and taking such good care of us.Kenny is a WONDERFUL Guide!

His passion for his city and knowledge of its history was amazing and he not only helped us understand it from a locals perspective but he also showed us “the basics” of how to navigate and appreciate the city which gave us a lot of confidence to really enjoy the rest of our time! We highly recommend this experience !Amazing experience !

The walk with Kenny was very intersting. He is very passionate about his home country and its life-style, and introduced me into the history and culture of the Singaporians of Chinese decent. Apart from Chinatown, we also visited Kampong Glam. There was also time for some food tasking. The tour gave some inspiration to further explore some of the places. We didn't see the Sprectra Lightshow or the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple though. Kenny's command of English is excellent and without a strong accent.

Grayson is a fantastic guide with expert knowledge about the history and culture of Singapore, all while highlighting its visual beauty. Our private night tour was a perfect mix of touring Chinatown, seeing and learning about hawker markets, temples, durians, sampling satay and the most incredible aerial view of a casino I have ever experienced. The tour ended with the fountain light show at the Marina Bay Sands - quite a sight to see. Grayson knew exactly where to take us to experience the beauty of Singapore at night. Grayson is fantastic!

Ronnie bought to life the history of Singapore as well as local knowledge. He is extremely knowledgeable and certainly is a fount of information. Probably not great for little children but my teenage girls really liked him and all the details, facts and hidden areas we would never have known about. I think it is grounding to share reality when surrounded by fun and shops, it made this country so much more real and his stories will stay with us. He left us eating satay which was included and fantastic. Highly recommend Excellent and memorable

Wo soll man nur anfangen wenn alles perfekt war? Am vereinbarten Treffpunkt wartete Ronnie bereits auf uns und begrüßte uns überschwänglich :) Die gesamte Tour über hatte man das Gefühl man wäre mit einem Freund unterwegs, der uns die Geschichte und das Leben in Singapur zeigt. Ganz nach dem Motto "Mitten drin statt nur dabei". Kleine Anekdoten über bestimmte Orte, wissenswertes im Touri Bereich und Insider Tipps machten die Tour zu einem einmaligen Erlebnis. Zum krönenden Abschluss aßen wir noch was zusammen (natürlich immer empfohlene Gerichte von Ronnie) . Man merkt er ist mit Laib und Seele dabei und es hat einfach nur spass gemacht ihm zu zu hören und in die Stadt ein zu tauchen.Unsere Tour sollte nach 1 1/2 h vorbei sein, doch wir saßen noch eine ganze Weile zusammen..... Danke Ronnie für das nächtliche Singapur.... Wir kommen gerne wieder und freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen. Kristina und Sarah

Jack was a great guide. He was very flexible in the planning of the tour. We met him in Chinatown and had a good walk through the area. We were in one of the shops looking at black tea and Jack got my attention. He thought it might be a bit expensive. He said he would drop some off at our hotel in the morning. Jack was funny, I explained to him that my name was uncommon and I was surprised to see it at one of the stands written in Chinese. I told him we had bought one. He said, you tell me how many you want, I'll write it for you. We walked around the lesser known streets of Chinatown and headed toward the Central District of Singapore to BBQ Street. This is where all the Satay vendors line up with their foods. Jack picked out some good food for us to try. Then because of the Corona virus the original night show had been suspended. So we went to the Gardens by the Bay to see the light show of the Super Trees. Jack was an awesome guide and a new friend in SingaporeGreat guide and fellow shutter bug

We wanted a tour that would give us some history of Singapore, show us some of the lesser known spots with some food tasting. We met Ronnie in China town and he showed us around, giving us a history. We found the whole evening very informative and great fun with Ronnie. We were introduced to some food in China town and then went on to watch the laser show at a vantage point. We ended the trip with street food satay tasting which was so good we went back there the following night for our evening meal. We would highly recommend Ronnie who is very knowledgeable and great fun to be with. This was the highlight of our trip to Singapore.Awesome evening tour in Singapore

Overall we found the Singapore by Night Tour to be enjoyable. The food was great, the commentary informative and the light show spectacular. However, we did have a few concerns. Firstly we received a text from Jack prior to the tour saying we would need to extend it another 2 hours, ie, from 2 hours to 4 hours as he would not be able to fit everything into 2 hours as it would be 'rushed'. We found this a bit contradictory as the 2 hour should have been designed with that time frame in mind. We stuck to our original time if 2 hours and found everything fitted in very well. Secondly, although the website stated that a glass of beer was included in the price of the tour we were asked to order and pay for our own beer ( an additional $20.00). This we found strange but we complied rather than create a scene over this small matter. Finally, the website said we would be taken to an area with no tourists to see the light show. We were taken to Marina Bay Shopping Complex surrounded by a good many tourists at this nightly tourist event.Good, but with reservations

Jack was a lovely man, he knows lots of history about Singapore, and about the beliefs of the Chinese people. I feel that the tour is quite rushed especially if you want time to take photos, an extra half an hour would make it even better than it was.Informative guide, who knows lots of history
