Take a walk off the beaten track, away from the tourist crowds, and see the real side of Singapore. On this private tour, go beyond the classic route and explore Hougang where you’ll experience a different Singapore, like a local with a local by your side!
During this tour you'll visit two former military defense sites and find out enough about the good, the bad & ugly sides of war never to start it once again!
Explore Singapore from the comfort of a guide-driven car. See the main attractions with your driver guide who can also tell you the stories behind Singapore’s monuments, famous buildings and must-see sights.
Singapore, a City in Nature, has more than 250 species of birds. During the bird migratory season between September till April, there are more than 500 species. So if you are a bird & wildlife photographer, this is the tour for you.

Picture this: Exploring the highlights, viewpoints, incredible nature, and cultural gems on an urban journey in Singapore.. Sounds like a dream? No, it’s possible on a Withlocals day trip with a local host leading the way!
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.

Fantastic Day in Singapore with Jeremy!
We spent a whirlwind, absolutely fabulous day exploring Singapore with Jeremy. He worked with me to develop my wishlist of sites we wanted to see, and then did his best to get us to all our places. We were picked up promptly at our cruise ship terminal, and he was ready with a transportation card for each of us. He possesses a wealth of information about everything-we learned so much about Singapore’s culture, history, traditions, and people. We were treated to a delicious meal at the Hawker Center, icy cold beers at a local bar, and all and all, an incredible day, with an amazing guide!

About local
Great trip with Richard in Pasir Ris Park in Singapore. Lots of birds and other local wildlife. Richard is a great guy to spend time with, lots of local knowledge and insights about the local flora and fauna but also plenty of interesting narrative about growing up in the area as a young boy, which brings it all to life. He's also a very knowledgeable photographer, willing to guide a hobby photographer like me on settings and composition. I highly recommend a morning stroll with Richard in Singapore.

Amazing full day tour of Singapore
We had a fantastic day with Meng Teck. From the moment he picked us up it was a wonderful experience. We saw views from the Riverfront, Singapore gallery, the Supreme Court building as well as Chinatown. We had a wonderful lunch in Little India and finished with a great excellent tasting authentic Singapore coffee with the special toast. Meng Teck was always attentive to our needs. I would highly recommended this tour and Meng Teck as a guide
