Hi there! Nice to meet you

Grayson

Grayson is a 4th generation Singaporean born into a Peranakan (Straits-born Chinese) heritage.

After graduating from university, he has left the biomedical industry to pursue his passion in tourism. Grayson has been a licensed Singapore tourist guide for many years now and has hosted visitors from various countries in Asia, Australia/New Zealand, Europe, North America, South America and Africa.

Every tour by Grayson is designed to be insightful, immersive, customisable and fun.

"I love meeting and connecting with people from different cultures. With every tour that I host, I make sure my guests receive the authentic Singapore experience and discover new things about this vibrant city that they would not have discovered otherwise. "

Born and bred in Singapore, Grayson is not only fluent in English but also in Singlish and he knows the hidden gems within the city.

"Whenever I travel overseas, fellow Singaporeans would recognise me as a Singaporean just by the way I talk, my choices of food and the way I bargain. But when I'm not talking, I might just be mistaken for someone from China, Japan or Korea. "

Even though he's a true-blue Singaporean, Grayson is well-travelled, studied in Australia, and has a Filipina wife and a toddler daughter. With a busy schedule hosting tours, he still tries to make time for his personal interests.

"During my free time, I'd love to travel if I can afford to. My interests include playing the guitar, learning new languages, enjoying drinks with friends and letting my family be guinea pigs for new recipes I cook. "

We had a great food tour with Grayson. In addition to being knowledgeable about the food, he shared lots of good information about Singapore and the history of the area. The foods he chose for us to sample were delicious and he provided a wide range of new flavours for us to try. He was great company all day and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a tour!Top-notch Food Tour

My friend and I had a private tour of the hawker centres in Kampong Glam, Little India and Chinatown arranged within a day's notice. We had great food and lots of insights into both historical and modern Singapore. Grayson was kind, funny, considerate and so knowledgeable. This was the highlight of our trip.Wonderful afternoon, wonderful host!

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!

Grayson was a wonderful host as well as trying many food samples he also explained the history of Singapore to us as we went. Having a private tour was great as we were able to stop along the way as well as ask many questions. Highly recommend Grayson as a guide.Great walking tour
